StayTerra, a platform comprised of premier vacation rental brands for guests in top destinations across America, today announced a strategic growth investment from leading technology and software investment firm Bessemer Venture Partners ("Bessemer"), joining existing investor, Garnett Station Partners (“Garnett Station” or “GSP”), to drive continued value creation across the vacation rental market.

Founded in partnership with Garnett Station, StayTerra operates a platform of premier vacation rental management brands that blend exceptional service with world-class property management for owners and seamless, elevated experiences for guests in multiple sought after vacation markets. The addition of Bessemer as a strategic partner will allow StayTerra to continue growing its platform by leveraging Bessemer’s preeminent technology expertise, as well as its deep understanding of the vacation rental space, to enhance operations across the entire StayTerra platform.

“The Bessemer team recognizes the fundamental value in our mission to build the premier vacation rental company of choice for homeowners and guests, and we are thrilled to bring them on board,” said Mary Lynn Clark, Chief Executive Officer of StayTerra. “By pairing Bessemer’s outstanding track record in technology investing with Garnett Station’s platform building and operational expertise, we’re well positioned to add more premium brands to our platform and better serve our owners, guests and the communities in which we operate.
