We’re Gabby and Erik Behr, the husband-and-wife team behind HostLine.
Our journey with short-term rentals started over 9 years ago when we bought our first Airbnb in Colorado Springs. Our side hustle quickly turned into a thriving business as we began managing our friend’s and family’s Airbnbs and eventually grew into managing nearly 30 listings in the Colorado Springs area. Last year, we hosted 7,000+ booked nights and generated several millions in gross revenue for our property owners. Our average guest rating was 4.9 out of 5 stars across all bookings. In total, we have received 5,000+ reviews with an average rating of 4.92. Along the way, we’ve learned A LOT about what it takes to run a successful vacation rental.
As much as we loved handling every detail with our full-service management, we saw a gap: hosts need support with guest communication and online tasks without handing over 20–30% of their income to a full-service manager. That insight became Hostline: a simple, flat-fee service dedicated to supporting hosts through expert guest communication and other online duties.
Today, with the help of our team, we give property owners freedom from their inbox while keeping guests cared for every step of the way. Whether you manage one cozy studio or a portfolio of homes, we’re here to make hosting easier, happier, and more sustainable.
