On day two she moved out, returned the keys, and vacated the property.  

I haven’t found anyone else besides my family that enjoys investing like I do and most people where I live just aren’t interested in self improvement of any kind.

Personally, SFHs are an enjoyable hobby that cash flows like.  

You should provide written lease violations for smoking in the property or loud music (assuming you have clauses for smoking and quiet enjoyment in the lease).

Nothing magical about this - many professionals simply do not have the time nor interest in paying attention to the daily goings-on of a vacation rental.  

Your present home that you will be vacating already appears to have pretty good cash flow potential (unless there's some hidden maintenance or capex that we aren't seeing).

My wife and I are looking into our first rental property investment in Marco Island Florida. I'm reading everything I can to get ready. We plan to use Airbnb, and Vrbo to rent it out. We have not found the exact prope...

I think you'll really enjoy the people and resources provided here.Love your idea of getting your license to get access to better resources as well as just the education that comes with it.
