How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Smithers?
Gross bookings per Smithers listing averaged CA$30,470 over the 12 months to October 2026 (British Columbia average: CA$48,118), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Smithers listing brings in CA$4,330 in September, its best month, and CA$2,420 in April, its slowest. November runs within 1% of April, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 31% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 2.3 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn CA$5,940+ a month, about twice the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn CA$4,490 or more, roughly CA$1,500 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about CA$3,030 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn CA$1,910 or less, about two-thirds of the median.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.
September earns about 1.8 times what April does

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Smithers Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Smithers Airbnb took in CA$30,470 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CA$1,750 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about CA$2,610 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the CA$1,740 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CA$1,890 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CA$1,510 a month.
These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Smithers's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Smithers listings are booked on 72% or more of their nights, against 51% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CA$180 adds about CA$1,790 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CA$245 a night or more, against a median of CA$180. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about CA$2,870 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, September brings the average listing about CA$4,330, against CA$2,420 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Smithers listings average 4.85 stars, and 57% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.
What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about CA$3,760 a month, against CA$2,540 for the average one.
