Hi. I'm seeking the advice of well traveled nurses to source the best online sites for finding lodging throughout the states, particularly in the southwest at the moment. I'm fairly new to the traveling gig and have been primarily using Craigslist, but the safety factor concerns me.
I know there are sites out there that are specific to offering lodgings to travel nurses, but I'm hoping to find out from those of you who have used them which ones are most effective and trustworthy.
I appreciate any feedback. Thank you!

Airbnb... Also if you are travel in rural areas you can also call and ask local restaurants or shops if they know of any ads or postings

FB groups "Gypsy nurse". "travel nurse network". I usually take company hotel housing while I look around. Have found places through hospital employees and one time an art shop. I have used Craig's list when I had someone to check out the place and get keys for me. Otherwise too many scams. With and b seems more reputable. Also call property managers and seasonal rental places and VRBO. Word of mouth has been the best for me.

You might ask a mod to move this to the travel nurse forum- posting it in the DNP forum seems like you're limiting responses.
