Big Bear Vacation Rental....Thoughts?

[Lindsi Rohland]

Hey guys, 

I'm looking at buying an rental property in Big Bear, California to be used as an Airbnb rental. I've lived in Big Bear as a kid and loved the area. Does anyone have experience with Big Bear rentals that wouldn't mind giving me advice/tips? 

What are the vacancy rates for the area? What are some hurdles you've come up against? Do they cash flow well? Utility prices? Has the Covids hurt your rental at all? Would totally appreciate some help, thanks everyone!
