Have questions about a specific market? Our team is here to help.
In mid-March, COVID-19 had a swift and detrimental impact on vacation rental markets across the country. Nearly every market where Vacasa operates was subject to restrictions or closures, and travel ground to a halt. Fortunately, as restrictions were lifted by local governments, people were eager to travel and rebooked their vacations at an almost alarming rate. Because our data is trailing twelve months (TTM), it may reflect that average nightly rental rates decreased temporarily in some markets during this time. In many markets, there was a dip in March and April nightly rental rates, but those quickly rebounded in May, June, and July as markets reopened for travelers. In a post-pandemic environment, we expect nearly all markets to rebound in terms of both rental rates and occupancy.
As people have started to travel again in 2020, they’re opting to drive rather than fly, for their safety and that of their families. We’ve seen a significant increase in bookings in markets that guests can get to relatively quickly from their often urban home bases. As such, drive-to destinations—like Big Sky, Conway, and Silverthorne—are appearing more frequently on our 2020 list of the best places to buy a vacation home. When you’re considering a purchase, it’s good to know that even in non-pandemic times, vacation homes within 2–2.5 hours of major metropolitan areas are a draw for potential guests.
It’s nothing new that travelers who book vacation homes are also often seeking outdoor adventure. This year’s list is full of destinations that are great for exploring the outdoors—nearly every one provides opportunities for hiking and biking, skiing and snowboarding, or kayaking and parasailing. Since our options for indoor entertainment are limited in 2020, it’s no wonder that families and friends are capitalizing on outdoor pursuits.
Many vacation rental markets are still experiencing closures and restrictions, which may make travel to the area difficult, if not impossible. If you’re interested in purchasing a vacation rental, but would prefer to hold on travel and touring homes, there are plenty of online resources to help you get started. Search Vacasa’s vacation rentals to get a feel for the types of homes in the areas you’re most interested in. There, you can browse images, take 360-degree Matterport home tours, and identify the must-have features for your ideal second home. Another pro tip: conduct online research to determine what activities and attractions bring guests to the area, so you can select a home as close to (or as far away from) the hustle and bustle as you like.
With interest rates so low, and travelers’ preferences shifting toward vacation rentals over hotels, we’re seeing increased interest in purchasing vacation homes. While mortgage rates have dropped across the board, those on second homes are being offered around 3.5%, depending on the lender. So, from a financial standpoint, it’s a great time to purchase a second home as well—especially if you’re able to put 10–15% down.
COVID-19 disclaimer:
Indoor and outdoor attractions, restaurants, bars, ski villages, events, and festivals mentioned within local market descriptions may be closed or cancelled, or may have limited service due to COVID-19. Before visiting, you are encouraged to check local regulations for the latest information.
The number one best place to buy a vacation home in 2020 is a small-town resort community that’s big on adventure. This four-season destination draws guests from surrounding states seeking natural beauty and plenty of activities. From the endless miles of snowy terrain that brings skiers, snowboarders, and snowmobilers to the area, to the spring and summer months ripe for whitewater rafting, fly fishing, and canoeing, there’s always something to discover in Big Sky. A day exploring the outdoors within city limits or just 50 miles away in West Yellowstone—the closest entry point to Yellowstone National Park—is best capped off downtown, a hub for the best in local fare and live outdoor music.

Part of the ever-popular Outer Banks region, Cape Hatteras lies within a small bend of Hatteras Island and is a spit of land that juts right into the Atlantic Ocean. For travelers who crave the heat, Cape Hatteras offers long, hot summers, which are made bearable by access to water in nearly every direction. With almost 70 miles of scenic beaches along the Cape Hatteras National Seashore, guests have more than enough room to mark their personal space with a beach blanket and enjoy the unobstructed ocean views. While the area has all kinds of lodging options, guests often opt for vacation rentals, as they can easily lug their belongings to the shore and back with ease.

The Poconos span roughly 2,400 square miles in northeastern Pennsylvania and encompass several quaint, cozy towns perfect for exploring. The word “Pocono” means “stream between two mountains” in the indigenous language of the Lenape. And that’s exactly what you’ll find—a plethora of wooded hills, rivers, lakes, and valleys just waiting to be explored. The natural beauty of the area is complemented by its proximity to major metropolitan areas, including Philadelphia and New York City. Both are roughly two hours away, which is ideal for urban guests seeking a dose of nature.

Gatlinburg was our number one best place to buy a vacation home in 2019 (Sevierville is included in the Gatlinburg market). Tucked into a leafy mountain valley and bordered by Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Gatlinburg welcomes up to 12 million visitors annually, despite having only 4,000 full-time residents. What’s all the fuss? There’s more packed into this town than destinations twice its size—from day hikes, river rafting, guided outdoor tours, and panoramic lookouts to seasonal festivals, unique shops, and plenty of family-friendly amenities.

Dauphin Island sits parallel to Gulf Shores, facing the Gulf of Mexico, and is known for picture-perfect views. It features pristine beaches and unique architecture (think colorful homes on stilts!). Dauphin Island is a short jaunt away from Mobile, a cultural hub on Alabama’s Gulf Coast that provides a steady stream of guests for family vacations and celebrations. While the island has all of the usual aquatic activities, including kayaking, paddleboarding, and boating, inquisitive minds will love exploring The Estuarium at Dauphin Island Sea Lab or touring historic Fort Gaines.

Nestled along the Outer Banks of North Carolina, Corolla has grown in popularity in recent years. The small-town beach community does not mean guests sacrifice access to high-end dining, shopping, or unique experiences. Visitors can find vacation homes of all kinds in Corolla, from the cozy and quaint to the downright luxurious—with some vacation rentals featuring private pools, lush theater rooms, indoor hot tubs, and direct beach access. One of the most popular attractions in Corolla is its wild horses, a herd of Wild Colonial Spanish Mustangs that roam the area’s beaches freely. Fun fact: it is believed that the horses are descendants of shipwrecked horses from hundreds of years ago, so visitors come in droves to catch a glimpse.

Conway is located among nearly 700,000 acres of protected land in the White Mountain National Forest and includes all the activities that the outdoors have to offer. From summer to winter and back again, guests can enjoy skiing, snowmobiling, hiking, golfing, fishing, and (best of all) leaf peeping in the late summer and early fall months. Guests can head into town and find a quaint New England village that meshes easily with modern touches, including access to popular outlet malls. While the area has many options for lodging, from B&Bs to resorts, guests are drawn to vacation homes that allow the whole family to get together.

There’s just something different about Palm Springs. When arriving in town, you instantly feel as if you were transported to a simpler—but more subtly glamorous—time. While the area’s shopping, dining, swimming, and sightseeing keep guests busy, there’s nothing better than lounging outside a private vacation home and soaking up the sun by the pool. The skyline in Palm Springs will tell you something about the area, as most homes (vacation or otherwise) rarely rise above one story. The expansive outdoor areas lined with outdoor seating, hot tubs, and barbecues make up for any lack of indoor square footage.

A vacation rental market that ranked #21 on our 2019 Best Places to Buy a Vacation Home report has broken the top 10. Ellijay, located in the North Georgia mountains, is best known as the state’s mountain biking capital. However, visitors to the area can do a lot more than just ride around on two wheels. This small town has southern charm in spades and features two of the most wholesome events of the year: the Georgia Apple Festival and the Georgia Apple Blossom Festival. While those events are TBD this year, there’s plenty to do in Ellijay—just head to the area's forests, rivers, and streams that create the most Instagram-worthy backdrops to share during quarantine.

Another Georgia market made our 2020 Best Places to Buy a Vacation Home list, moving up one spot from its 2019 position at #11. Guests to the Blue Ridge area describe it as one of the most naturally beautiful destinations in the country, and we don’t disagree. The mountain range, which is known for its blue hue, is a stunning backdrop to everything the area has to offer. Activities are plentiful in Blue Ridge, from hiking around the local waterfalls to horseback riding along the trails in the Chattahoochee National Forest. Blue Ridge is the trout fishing capital of Georgia, so drop a line in the Toccoa River or enjoy the calm waters of Lake Blue Ridge, meant for paddleboarding, kayaking, and pontooning. Cabins in Blue Ridge are a popular choice for vacationers and are often secluded with great views.

Our #2 best place to buy a vacation home in 2019 slid 9 spots to #11, but Killington still has plenty to offer both buyers and guests. Located in the Green Mountains, Killington offers two downhill ski resorts—one that shares its name with the town, and Pico Mountain Ski Resort—for families and friends who want to experience one of the most diverse ski areas in the country. And while the area is known for winter sports and activities, it also comes alive in the summer months and is home to two PGA golf courses, a bike park (in addition to its many hiking and biking trails), and plenty of spots to take a dip in the area’s rivers. For those looking for a more relaxed experience, Killington offers a plethora of local breweries, wineries, and restaurants, along with plenty of places to indulge in some retail therapy.

While Hawaii is having a tough time due to the current environment, the island of Kauai is still one of our top 25 places to buy a vacation home—and it isn’t the only island destination on the list. We don’t need to convince anyone that buying in Hawaii is a good idea: not only do tourists visit year after year, but it’s also an ideal place for vacation home owners to escape when they have the opportunity. Kauai boasts dramatic beauty, with natural rainforests and jagged cliffs that make for some of the most breathtaking views. Local waters can be calm for kids looking for a splash, or more adventurous for those who want to surf. We recommend looking for homes on the South side of the island due to their strong guest demand and equally high cap rates.

Home of Colorado’s largest mountain resort with more than 5,000 skiable acres, Vail is an obvious choice for a top place to buy a vacation home. Advanced athletes will love the challenging powdery bowls, and park enthusiasts will want to try out one of the terrain parks. The three Bavarian-style villages at the base of the mountain have heated pedestrian streets and a free bus system, exuding an elegant Old-World charm. And while Vail has plenty to do on its own, it’s also about 12 miles east of the outdoor mecca of Avon—home to the world-renowned slopes of Beaver Creek Resort—and a few miles west of Summit County mountain resorts like the majestic Copper Mountain and skiing paradise of Breckenridge.

A stone’s throw from Florida’s most popular amusement parks, Kissimmee is one of those destinations that we see guests book year after year to uphold family traditions. Universal Orlando and Walt Disney World Resort are minutes away, so families flock to Kissimmee to catch a glimpse of the world’s most famous mouse or take a turn on the teacups. However, you don’t have to leave Kissimmee to get in on some good old-fashioned family fun. Old Town Kissimmee is popular among tourists to the area, with locally owned businesses and restaurants that’ll transport you back in time. There, show your kids (or grandkids!) what an old-school arcade or bumper cars are all about.

At 6,700 feet above sea level, the idyllic mountain resort town of Big Bear lies at the heart of the San Bernardino National Forest, less than 100 miles east of Hollywood. Recently renovated Big Bear Village—now featuring heated sidewalks, firepits, seating walls, and modern lighting—offers a variety of alpine-style shops and boutiques, as well as several dining and entertainment options. Starting in the spring, guests can shop for local produce at the Big Bear Farmers' Market and take their fare back to their vacation home to prepare healthy meals. In the summer months, take a boat out and drop your line into Big Bear Lake, or take a guided paddlewheel tour across the water.

The local ski resorts offer a variety of opportunities for outdoor fun, from skiing and snowboarding in the winter to hiking and biking during the warmer months. Bikers can spend a day exploring Ten Mile Canyon and Vail Pass, while water lovers will want to visit Dillon Reservoir for boating and fishing. Hikers of all experience levels will appreciate that Silverthorne provides easy access to well-known Colorado fourteeners, like Grays Peak and Torreys Peak (both 19.5 miles away) or Quandary Peak (24 miles away). If that kind of outdoor activity isn’t enough to draw guests in, they can also hit the links at the Raven Golf Club or splurge on a shopping spree at the Silverthorne Outlets.

With its ranking as one of the top 10 ski resorts in America, Breckenridge Ski Resort boasts four towering mountain peaks on the Ten Mile Range and over 2,000 varied acres of skiing and snowboarding terrain. Outside of the resort, the Gold Run Nordic Center and the Breckenridge Nordic Center each offer miles of trails for cross-country skiing or snowshoeing.

Steamboat Springs is famous for its incredible skiing and snowboarding, but the adventure doesn't stop when the snow melts. With year-round gondola rides, fantastic biking trails, and a world-class ski resort, Steamboat Springs provides the perfect home base for a Northwest Colorado getaway. Steamboat Springs Ski Resort offers 3,600 feet of vertical rise and its longest run, “Why Not,” spans more than three miles. For activities that won’t get your heart rate up quite as high, snowshoeing, inner tubing, and snowmobile tours are popular for guests. Steamboat Springs is also an attractive summer market, since it hosts many unique competitions and festivals in the sunnier months.

Bright, colorful vacation rentals line white-sand beaches with crystal-clear water. In fact, Key West has so many different beaches that guests often find themselves sampling them all. After a day outdoors, visitors can head to Duval Street, which offers a variety of venues for a cold drink and live music. For those interested in diving into the history of the area, there are plenty of local museums, but a more unique way to start the day is to ride one of the trains or trolleys as the conductor dictates stories from the area.

Oregon is home to several destinations where outdoor adventure reigns supreme, but perhaps none are quite as popular as Mt. Hood. In the winter months, the mountain’s ski resorts—including Timberline and Mt. Hood Meadows—are packed with Portlanders, who can drive to most resorts within an hour and a half. Those who opt out of downhill have tremendous opportunities for snowshoeing around some of the area’s most beautiful lakes including Mirror and Trillium. In the summer months, hikers and mountain bikers flood local trails to enjoy warm but moderate temperatures that are also perfect for camping overnight.

The South Kohala district includes the towns of Puako, Waikoloa Village, Waimea, and unincorporated Kawaihae and Kawaihae Harbor. It’s one of the most sought-after destinations on the Big Island of Hawaii, but somehow it remains relatively untouched by people. It can be a bit of a change of scenery compared to most people’s idea of Hawaii, with lush, green stretches of rolling hills that are the center of Kohala’s ranching culture. In addition to weekly farmers’ markets, South Kohala is known for its incredible dining scene. From the pricey Redwater Cafe to the family-friendly Pau Pizza, there’s something for everyone in South Kohala.

Corpus Christi has plenty of opportunities to sail, surf, kayak, or kiteboard, but if guests need a break from the sun, they can pay a visit to the Botanical Gardens, spend the day at the Museum of Science and History, or explore the massive Texas State Aquarium. There, attractions like Dolphin Bay—a 400,000-gallon saltwater exhibit starring two Atlantic bottlenose dolphins—are popular for kids and adults alike. And while one of the benefits of a vacation home is having your own kitchen to prepare meals, a Corpus Christi getaway wouldn't be complete without enjoying some of the town's famous seafood restaurants.
