Is there no positive feed back for Vacation Rental?

[Jacob Beard]

I have combed through a lot of articles concerning vacation rentals and the majority feedback I see Is it isn't profitable, PM eats up most of your income, Your lucky to break even.  If I understand correctly it seems as if Vacation Rentals aren't for people wanting to make money but more so for people wanting another home and are looking to offset the cost of owning it. So then the perk is paying minimal every month to own an entire home instead of the entire mortgage. 

I really hope there are more success story's out there of people being as profitable or more profitable with VR than the negative reviews I'm reading about that seam more common place
