How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Lakeshore?

The average Lakeshore listing brought in $5,250 in August, its best month, and $2,070 in December, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 37% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Lakeshore's 20 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $7,500+ a month, about 4.6 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $3,880 or more, roughly $2,200 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,640 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $971 or less, about 59% 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Lakeshore Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Lakeshore Airbnb took in $16,356 in the 12 months to January 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $990 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 $2,390 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 HOA or condo fees.

How Lakeshore's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Lakeshore listings are booked on 29% or more of their nights, against 17% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $340 adds about $3,410 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $435 a night or more, against a median of $340. 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 $1,640 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about $5,250, against $2,070 in December, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.

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 $3,230 a month, against $1,360 for the average one.
