Stays

Each stay is a Markdown file in src/content/stays/. The file name becomes its address: willow-yard-homestay.md is published at /stays/willow-yard-homestay/. Stays appear in the finder on /stays/, in the stays blocks, and on their destination’s page. Stays of type camp can be listed on their own page with stayType: camp on a finder block, as the demo does on /camping/.
