Use local insights and dynamic pricing tools to maximize short-term rental revenue.

When big events come to town, short-term rental demand doesn’t just rise—it explodes. Festivals, sporting events, conventions, and even smaller “sleeper” happenings can drive market compression, fill hotels, and leave travelers scrambling for alternative accommodations. That’s where smart hosts step in.

In this week’s episode of Thanks for Visiting, Sarah and Annette break down how to spot and plan for demand spikes with the help of PriceLabs dynamic pricing software. By layering in your local knowledge—like knowing which teams travel well or which events draw passionate fans—you can set premium rates and actually book them.

The duo walks through their annual and quarterly planning sessions, how to catch hidden opportunities, and why the mix of data and human insight is the real key to event-pricing success.

If you’ve ever wondered how to stop leaving money on the table during high-demand weekends, this episode is your playbook.

Welcome to LoveAdventures Dahlonega, a private, couples-focused escape tucked into 60 secluded acres just outside one of the South’s most charming towns. This is not your average getaway—it’s an intentional experience designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and celebrate your relationship in a truly unforgettable setting.

From the moment you arrive at the At Last Landscape Hideaway, you’re wrapped in modern comfort and natural beauty. The Scandinavian-inspired design feels like it’s floating in the trees, with floor-to-ceiling windows that draw the outside in. Unwind together in the private wood-fired hot tub, enjoy an outdoor shower under the stars, and hike on your own exclusive trails to a peaceful, year-round creek.

Inside, you’ll find all the luxurious touches of a boutique hotel—heated bathroom floors, a California king bed with Peacock Alley linens, Sonos speakers, reclining lounge chairs, and a fully equipped kitchenette. Outside, the expansive Brazilian hardwood deck invites you to soak in sunset views, relax by the smokeless fire pit, and indulge in true off-grid serenity (but with Starlink-level Wi-Fi when you need it).

Perfect for proposals, honeymoons, anniversaries, baby-moons, or just a quiet weekend to say I love you, LoveAdventures is where memories that matter are made.
