Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Wolfe County?

Gross bookings per Wolfe County listing averaged $32,899 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Kentucky average: $27,730), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Wolfe County listing brings in $4,910 in October, its best month, and $2,020 in February, its slowest. January runs within 1% of February, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 34% 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 $6,910+ a month, about 2.7 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $4,280 or more, roughly $1,700 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $2,600 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,440 or less, about 56% 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.

October earns about 2.4 times what February does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Wolfe County Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Wolfe County Airbnb took in $32,899 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,670 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 $2,770 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,350 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,030 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,430 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 Wolfe County's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Wolfe County listings are booked on 54% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $225 adds about $2,240 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $290 a night or more, against a median of $225. 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 $2,850 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, October brings the average listing about $4,910, against $2,020 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Wolfe County listings average 4.82 stars, and 48% 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 $4,520 a month, against $2,740 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Wolfe County
