We too finally just quit trying to play during "snowbird" season, but then, "snowbird" season started getting longer, and longer, and longer, and with the dramatic increase in AB&B and so many other short term rental companies, the number of units that once were unoccupied many months, has now increased tremendously. That impacts the whole amenity picture too.
