Maine’s vacation rental market has seen some big shifts in 2025, but the story isn’t all doom and gloom. In this episode of Mainely BnB Mastery, Jeff Davis breaks down the latest data on Maine’s 2025 tourism season compared to July 2024—covering everything from weather impacts and Canadian tourism drops to occupancy, ADR, booking lead times in Freeport and Sunday River, and how he doubled the revenues of competitors in the same market last month.
📊 What you’ll learn in this episode:
How Maine rebounded after one of the rainiest June on record, combined with declined Canadian tourism
Why Jeff's Freeport properties outperformed July 2024 by 28%
