Profit

Is an Airbnb in Millers Creek Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Millers Creek Airbnb took in $17,582 in the 12 months to April 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,070 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 $2,030 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 Millers Creek's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Millers Creek listings are booked on 54% or more of their nights, against 26% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $140 adds about $1,390 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $180 a night or more, against a median of $140. 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 $1,760 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. March brought the average listing about $3,600, against $1,510 in May, 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 $2,750 a month, against $1,470 for the average one.
