We're Ali & Ravyn, the design-obsessed duo behind Library of Stays.
WE'RE SO HAPPY YOU'RE HERE.
We believe short-term rentals deserve more than blank walls and generic listings. Your property should feel like a story waiting to unfold, and we’re here to make sure it does.
LIBRARY OF STAYS STARTED THE WAY SO MANY GOOD STORIES DO: ON THE ROAD.
In the Summer of 2025, during a six-day stay on the Oregon Coast, Ali shared her vision of a hospitality-focused creative agency with Ravyn, and what unfolded has been the stuff of magic. Between weekly calls, endless Google Doc updates, and hundreds of texts, they created this brand that reflects their passion for helping rental owners create meaningful, memorable stays. But this story didn’t start in 2025 … In 2011, Ali discovered Ravyn’s work on Pinterest while searching online for a designer to rebrand her wedding photography business. After connecting online, they met in person and immediately hit it off, becoming fast friends. Their friendship deepened over years of shared travels, coast trips, camping adventures, and two family vacations to Hawaii. Long distance moves, navigating parenting, and experiencing so much life together has forged a friendship rooted in trust, communication, and mutual admiration. Starting a business together was a no-brainer: it has been the perfect fit.
To help short-term rental owners create experiences that feel intentional, memorable, and totally bookable. We believe great design and storytelling aren’t just for big hotels … every stay can be a story worth checking into.
Our Mission
HOSPITALITY STRATEGIST & VISUAL STYLIST
Ali
Ali is both a big-picture thinker and a detail wrangler. A sixth-generation Oregonian with a background in photography, she launched Carousel House in Sunriver as a personal creative project—one that quickly became a completely unique stay in the vacation rental marketplace.
Through that process, she realized what was missing in the industry. She had the ability to integrate design, storytelling, branding, marketing strategy, and guest experience into a vision tailored to Carousel House—but she also knew most owners don’t have all of those skills at their fingertips. What she created for herself became the foundation of Library of Stays: an integrated, custom service that removes the pain points of coordinating multiple partners by bringing everything together from the start.
Drawing on her foundation in hospitality and years spent immersed in both hotels and vacation rentals, Ali brings a rare mix of service, storytelling, and guest insight to every project. At Library of Stays, she leads experience design, amenity development, and long-term hospitality practices: ensuring each property feels distinctive, welcoming, and its vision is built to thrive for years to come.
Ravyn
Creative Director & Brand Strategist
Ravyn is our visual dreamer with a gift for making design feel approachable. Over the past 16 years, she has partnered with hundreds of business owners to bring their visions to life, always with the same focus: uncover the story, create the visuals, and deliver the tools that make a brand work in the real world. Her thoughtful approach is rooted in clarity, values, and connection, ensuring that every design decision has meaning behind it.
Through her branding studio, Three Fifteen Design, Ravyn developed a reputation for intentional design that went beyond aesthetics, shaping cohesive identities and messaging frameworks for clients across industries. That same philosophy flows into her work at Library of Stays, where she leads creative direction and brand strategy.
In addition to her branding work, Ravyn is the founder of Garden Club Ceramics, a studio where she creates pieces that embody the same principles she brings to design: functionality, purpose, and longevity. This dual lens brings nuance and integrity to every project.
