Anyone doing vacation rentals?

I have been researching buying a cabin to use as a vacation rental. Curious to hear if anyone else is doing this and if the experience is fruitful?

I am looking at houses near our local mountain where tons of local tourism flows through for winter and summer sports. So the demand is there.

Also thinking to have it property managed by Vacasa, which takes a moderate commission, but could be worth it since they handle everything from reservations, guest support, cleaning, and everything in-between.

Would love to hear your thoughts and experience on this strategy!

Thanks

Colin

@Colin Johnson, I am looking into this as a strategy as well but am data collecting and analyzing at the moment.  I am curious to hear more information on this topic so I will be following. 

@Catherine Emert may be able to assist you with this.   She would be someone to talk to if you're looking to buy a vacation rental in Oregon.
