Why it matters: Airbnb ranks and badges by quality, and guests filter for Guest Favorites. Your home gets seen. And a rating this high across this many homes is evidence the care is reaching the guest, every turnover, in every house. We've also been Superhosts every quarter since we started hosting.

High ratings get harder to sustain as an operation grows. AirDNA reports an average rating of 4.71 for managers with 100–249 listings. The Wolf’s Airbnb rating is 4.94.
Other local managers with more than 45 homes score 4.65–4.84. Our 4.94 spans homes from the Longs Peak trailhead toward Lyons, high into Windcliff and nearly to the Highway 34 park entrance.

Nearly four times the occupancy and three times the revenue in the month most Estes Park homes sit dark. Across the whole portfolio, from November through April, our homes ran between 53% and 73% occupancy while the market ran 16% to 29%. Why it matters: you earn in January and February, and regular occupancy brings guests and our team through the home throughout the winter.

Airbnb portfolio report, Sep 13, 2026. 117 unique listings: Guest Favorite and highlight designations (groups overlap; all 75 highlighted homes are Guest Favorites), lifetime average rating per listing, and lifetime and trailing-365-day booking counts (Airbnb's counts include cancellations). Designations are re-evaluated by Airbnb daily; this is a dated snapshot.
Trailing-12-month review analysis. Hostaway guest-review export dated Sep 13, 2026; Airbnb reviews submitted Sep 13, 2025–Sep 12, 2026. 7,540 reviews across 116 Estes Park homes; review-weighted mean 4.93992 (4.94), 95.0928% five-star. Communication: 7,400 of 7,540 ratings were five-star (98.14%). Per-home means use unrounded values: 90 at least 4.90; 115 at least 4.80. These are recent-review averages, not Airbnb’s lifetime listing scores. Kentucky homes, Rock Nook, and Estes Park Outfitters Lodge are excluded consistently with the portfolio’s review analysis. The separate 117-listing badge snapshot is dated Sep 13, 2026.
Review rate. The Wolf's internal calculation: guest reviews received divided by completed stays, approximately 70%.
Key Data. Custom group "Same Store 2026" vs. "Direct (Greater Estes Park)," Aug 1, 2025–Aug 31, 2026, as of Aug 23, 2026; a 13-month window with an unfinished final month; different property mixes. Adjusted paid occupancy is booked nights over available nights, with owner blocks removed. Revenue per available night (RevPAR) is rate times occupancy: what each night on the calendar earned, booked or not, before management fees and property expenses. Average nightly rate (ADR) is revenue per booked night.
PriceLabs. Revenue Estimator Pro, reports created Sep 25, 2026, for one Estes Park address; 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, entire cabins, 6 guests. Groups contain different homes; the higher group combines rating with 100+ reviews. Estimated revenue excludes taxes, cleaning fees, and other charges. The comparison shows the size of the gap between rating tiers in this market, not what one home would gain by moving tiers.
AirDNA. "Best Airbnb Management Companies in the US (2026)," Aug 26/30, 2026: national funnel (960,000 hosts → 220,000 → 7,168 → 920 → 668 → 212 → 18 → 10), share of hosts at 4.9+ and average rating by portfolio size, the Guest Loved & OTA Badged award (92.4% top), and the top ten (4.94–4.96 as displayed). Local winners and the Estes Park Top Property Managers table from AirDNA's market data, August 2026 (managers with 17+ listings; The Wolf's homes sit under several host accounts and are combined into one point). AirDNA's ratings are review-weighted across Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com; Airbnb's dashboard rating is Airbnb only. Shown together for context; "would tie for sixth" places our 4.94 on AirDNA's displayed table, not in its calculation.
Portfolio and forecasts. Property value is The Wolf's Sep 2026 estimate of owners' homes under management, not company-owned real estate. 2027 figures are rounded planning forecasts, not results; guest spend is not owner income or company revenue.
