15 US vacation towns where it costs double to rent in high season
If you’ve ever rented or owned a vacation home, you know how big of a difference the seasons can make.
Data company AirDNA released a list of the cities that are the least and the most seasonal, or where the seasons tend to have the most impact on rental price.
To calculate this, AirDNA created seasonality scores based on the difference in demand between peak and off-peak seasons in cities in the US. It also considered the rates that vacation rentals brought during their peak and off-peak seasons.
Especially prone to large changes in vacation rental income are beach towns in the Northeast; beaches on the New Jersey shore, Long Island, and Cape Cod made this list frequently. Only one ski town — Big Sky, Montana — made the list.
For those looking for consistent income from a rental vacation home, these 15 markets probably aren’t the ones for you. But, if you don’t mind the ebb and flow of tourist season, these places offer rental rates that nearly double at certain points of the year.
