2023 Most Attractive Markets?

Hi All,

I'm looking to invest in a STR in a growing market, ideally one on the west coast that features nearby snowboarding and scenic views. I'm also curious about underappreciated beachfront. Any markets you think seem interesting?

As a fellow avid skier/boarder, I've sadly come to accept that there are very few, if any attractive STR markets that are good for skiers. Especially out west.

There are just too many people willing to buy homes in those markets primarily to use for themselves, for way more money than make sense as a pure investment. So I've settled on buying STRs in better STR markets and using some of the profits to pay for baller ski vacations in houses that cost 5x as much as my STR but barely generate even half the revenue.
