"Curb Appeal" Photo Contest!

Does your vacation home “make a statement” as you approach it from the street?  Please send us exterior property photos to show-off inviting walkways, elegant entryways, mood accent lighting or lush landscaping.

Deadline for submissions is Saturday, April 5th.
Remember, we cannot accept photos with people in them.

Please click here to submit your text and/or photos. The Traveler editorial team will choose the three best submitted shots, and display them in our next newsletter, including links to your property listing.

*Remember, your photo should be a minimum of 72 dpi up to 300 dpi. A larger photo is generally better, so if you’re not sure of the photo’s DPI, we would prefer a 5”x8” size or larger. Generally a file size that is around 3MB will be sufficient for our needs. Take your best shot!
