How Vacation Rentals can Profit from the Growing Vacation Travel Market

From all reports, higher gas prices do not seem to have cut down the number of road trips that vacationers are taking. Major destination resorts have reported higher occupancy rates this year. This trend has allowed hotels to increase their rates this year and offer fewer discounts. Vacation rental property managers are reporting that prime properties were rented much earlier this year.

If you are not experiencing this general increase in activity, you may wish to evaluate your marketing strategy.
