the software says use misc income to report this but there is no place to do it.

If you rent your vacation home for fewer than 15 days in 2016, you don't report any of the rental income and don't deduct any expenses as rental expenses.

You do not have to report the form 1099-MISC on your tax return.

Please read this IRS document for more information:
