Air B & B Experiences

I have a 3 bedroom 2 bath single family home in a small Beach town in Maine called Old Orchard Beach, I currentley have long term tenants but Im intrigued by the idea of using Air B & B once their lease expires. What experiences have you had using air B & B to rent out your property? Good or bad.

@James Cannon I did a quick map search of the area and there are some universities no idea how large but it seems like getting students to rent during the school year (9 month lease would actually be a good selling point) Make sure their parents co-sign on the lease and rent to vacationers during the tourist season.

You usually get a premium for airbnb homeaway etc. but expenses and vacancy can hurt those numbers
