Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Cripple Creek?

Gross bookings per Cripple Creek listing averaged $40,954 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Colorado average: $42,105), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Cripple Creek listing brings in $6,580 in July, its best month, and $2,450 in February, its slowest. April runs within 5% of February, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 39% 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 2.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $8,120+ a month, about 2.4 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $5,500 or more, roughly $2,200 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $3,350 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,860 or less, about 55% 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.

The typical Cripple Creek listing earns about $3,350 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Cripple Creek Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Cripple Creek Airbnb took in $40,954 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,080 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 $3,450 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $5,700 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,560 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,790 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 Cripple Creek's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Cripple Creek listings are booked on 67% or more of their nights, against 43% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $235 adds about $2,350 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $315 a night or more, against a median of $235. 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 $3,530 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $6,580, against $2,450 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Cripple Creek listings average 4.88 stars, and 65% 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 $5,600 a month, against $3,410 for the average one.

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Cripple Creek
