There are also reviews from guests and most of the time you are booking directly from the owner.
I also like it when the home is part of a group of homes managed by a company, as there is continuity and a degree of professionalism in dealings. You can often pay by credit card, the cleaning of the house is overseen by the management company, any problems with the rental home are fixed promptly, etc.

Either way, we've had very good experiences.
