Hi there! I’m Joseph Coker, founder of Elephant Escapes. 

I started hosting a room in my house on Airbnb in 2015. Since then, my team and I have grown to a several state operation, managing a carefully curated portfolio of 25 properties and counting with over a million dollars a year in bookings. 

Along the way we have made every mistake imaginable, had a variety of guests- both good and bad, and have learned many lessons. We bring all that experience to bear when managing properties so you can increase income and reduce headaches.

We chose the elephant as our mascot because elephants are gentle, powerful, family oriented, and everyone knows the elephant never forgets.
