Traverse City MI Vacancy Rate

I am looking at buying my first rental property and debating between a single family or VR.  I would appreciate any advice anyone can give on benefits of one over the other.  based on my initial evaluations it looks like a VR would generate more cash flow but I am making some assumptions on the vacancy rate and not sure how accurate they are.  I am looking at properties in the Traverse City MI area.  I know that it will be seasonal and I am assuming a 20% vacancy in the peak season and 80% vacancy in the off season.  does any one have experience in this area, or another seasonal area that I could use for a starting point?  Any input would be greatly appreciated.
