With your costs being less you can invest more into the property to build reviews and get bookings. 

I'm a 2x house hacker here in LA (a case study in the BP book The House Hacking Strategy) and an out of state investor.

It stays booked in the summer and is quiet in winter (cannot use the lake, community pool, community golf course, etc).

But if anyone can recommend a book, a podcast, a youtube on how to start in AirBNB will be so much appreciated.

Just make sure you are saving towards those slow months during the peak months, buy a deal at the right price (don't overpay just because its a turnkey STR or you think it will make more money than projected), and look into ways to increase bookings during those slow months with some marketing and operation tweaks. 

You could check out a book by Dave Van Horn called Real Estate Note Investing.

Last short term rental we put on the market was booked for a 30 day stay first day on the market.

Read my book.2.

Now that they've coached me up I feel very confident using the software and closing out my books each month.
