At first I did not believe this could possibly be true but you're right, there's been a case and everything.
I don't think you have gdpr obligations if your private cameras are just capturing your own grounds and home.
But it DOES apply if your private cameras capture footage of public places.
Interestingly, it looks like it must apply to all cameras in and around AirBNBs.

2.3 Household exemption
As far I understand it, if the cameras are pointed towards your home the exemption applies. If there is even a partial view of the street it would not apply (like the case is with many doorbell cameras). If there was a fence and the camera did not see above the fence it would likely apply though if there is a gate on the view it might not.

If your cameras are on your private property and for your personal use, the household exemption means that the GDPR absolutely does not apply.
I don't know how exactly it's in the US, but in EU security cam footage is considered to be personal information and as result of that GDPR applies. So whoever controls the security camera is the data controller and is required to e.g. provide access to people who were recorded. In this case it would likely be the home owner and unless Google was acting as data processor for the home owner they wouldn't be allowed to process that data.
