This is where New York’s Adirondacks meet prime STR opportunity. This tourist favorite brings in a whopping $392 average nightly rate and over $25K in monthly revenue for savvy hosts, thanks to its year-round appeal—think boating in summer, leaf-peeping in fall, and cozy lakeside escapes in winter.

And with a fully finished basement that could easily accommodate more bedrooms, this home is set to exceed its already impressive $66K gross revenue potential.
