Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Grand Marais?

Gross bookings per Grand Marais listing averaged $42,284 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Minnesota average: $31,531), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Grand Marais listing brings in $7,450 in August, its best month, and $2,310 in April, its slowest. July runs within 1% of August, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 41% 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 2.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $8,000+ a month, about twice the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $5,670 or more, roughly $1,700 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $4,020 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $2,520 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.

August earns about 3.2 times what April does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Grand Marais Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Grand Marais Airbnb took in $42,284 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,280 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 $3,250 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,040 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,620 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,970 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 Grand Marais's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Grand Marais listings are booked on 61% or more of their nights, against 47% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $260 adds about $2,620 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $390 a night or more, against a median of $260. 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 $3,820 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about $7,450, against $2,310 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Grand Marais listings average 4.88 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 $4,970 a month, against $3,520 for the average one.
