How it works for renters
Shanty BB makes it easier to discover and book unique outdoor spaces, equipment, and experiences — all in one place. From ice-fishing shanties and hunting camps to cabins, docks, basecamps, and more, you can search for the outdoor experience that fits your plans, your location, and your budget.
Browse available listings by location, category, dates, amenities, and guest capacity. Review photos, descriptions, host rules, and pricing before deciding which experience is right for you.
Whether you are planning a weekend fishing trip, a hunting getaway, a family cabin stay, or simply looking for a new way to enjoy the outdoors, Shanty BB helps connect you with hosts who have something worth sharing.
Many independent hosts list their properties or equipment on more than one rental marketplace. That means you may recognize some of the same hosts and outdoor rentals available on larger platforms — but Shanty BB is built specifically for the outdoor community.
Our platform percentage is intentionally kept lower than many comparable rental marketplaces. Lower platform fees can help reduce the additional costs added to your reservation while allowing more of your payment to support the host providing the experience.
Final pricing may vary based on the host's nightly rate, selected options, taxes, deposits, and other applicable charges. You will be able to review the full cost before completing your reservation.
Once you find the right listing, select your dates, review the host's policies, and submit your reservation through Shanty BB.
Payments are processed through Stripe, a trusted multibillion-dollar global payments company used by businesses and online platforms around the world. This allows Shanty BB renters to use a secure and established payment system rather than sending money directly to an unknown host.
For your protection, always keep reservation communications and payments within the Shanty BB platform.
After your reservation is confirmed, you can communicate with your host regarding arrival instructions, permitted activities, equipment details, property rules, and other information needed for your trip.
Certain sensitive information, such as the exact location of a rental, may remain private until the appropriate stage of the booking process. This helps protect both renters and hosts.
Arrive prepared, respect the property and surrounding environment, follow the host's rules, and enjoy your experience.
Shanty BB was created by outdoorsmen, for outdoorsmen — and for everyone looking for a more accessible way to experience the outdoors.
After your trip, leave an honest review and rating. Your feedback helps future renters make informed decisions, recognizes outstanding hosts, and strengthens the Shanty BB outdoor community.
