I would keep Cuyuna Lakes and Crosby in a yield-focused search despite its lower booking revenue. Average trailing-year booking revenue is $28,905, below Central Minnesota, MN's $31,075, but median potential gross yield is 15.7% versus 12.5%.
That higher potential gross yield is before expenses, financing and taxes; it does not establish stronger cash flow. The lower booking average makes the operating budget worth close attention: a property's fixed costs need to fit its own expected revenue, even when the area-level yield looks favorable.
