It has come to the attention of the Board that there has been some advertising of short term rentals (AirBnB, etc.) in the Ranch.  This is not allowed according to the Covenants.  Letters will be sent to make the owners aware of the Covenant regulations.  One of the concerns about short term rentals is the effect on the HOA’s insurance.
