PERFORMANCE
How STRs perform
February–March is the profit engine: spring training weeks book solid at strong rates, often to the same returning fans. Glendale stadium spillover adds event weekends. Summer runs on lake traffic. Pricing the March calendar correctly matters more than anything else here.
What wins here:
Early-opening spring training pricing, fan-friendly touches, garage & boat parking, and pools for the lake crowd.

OWNERS QUESTIONS
Asked about this market
HOW STRONG IS SPRING TRAINING HERE, REALLY?
Peoria hosts two teams, so March demand is doubled and loyal; many guests rebook the same weeks yearly. It routinely outprices anything else on the calendar.
DOES LAKE PLEASANT ACTUALLY DRIVE BOOKINGS?
Yes: summer weekends bring boat-trailer guests who specifically filter for parking and pools. It softens the summer dip other Valley markets feel.
