How do I report Airbnb earnings less than $20,000

I rented my personal home out on Airbnb for one months in 2015. I read that Airbnb only sends a 1099 for earnings more than $20,000. How do I report earnings for less than $20,000.

I made more than $600 (and less than $20,000) but Airbnb will not provide a 1099-MISC. Do I just enter the amount paid out into Box 3? Or can I consider it rental income (and write off my rental payment)?

Airbnb should send you a 1099-MISC for any amounts earned over $600. Please see the information provided below regarding reporting income from Airbnb.
