Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Lake Leelanau?

Gross bookings per Lake Leelanau listing averaged $33,276 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Michigan average: $34,144), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Lake Leelanau listing brings in $11,100 in July, its best month, and $1,680 in January, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 51% 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 three times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $9,880+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $5,470 or more, roughly $2,200 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $3,290 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,800 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Lake Leelanau Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Lake Leelanau Airbnb took in $33,276 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,760 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 $2,950 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,050 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,100 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,520 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 Lake Leelanau's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Lake Leelanau listings are booked on 49% or more of their nights, against 30% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $300 adds about $3,010 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $410 a night or more, against a median of $300. 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 $2,920 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $11,100, against $1,680 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Lake Leelanau listings average 4.89 stars, and 64% 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 $4,610 a month, against $2,770 for the average one.
