Quarterly average across active listings

Clearwater's ADR rises 109% from Sep ($168) to Feb ($351), but occupancy rises 1.9× in the same window. The revenue lever here is occupancy capture, not pricing — set rates competitively in shoulder months to maximize summer bookings, then push ADR aggressively in peak months when demand is inelastic.
