Innsbrook is a gated resort community in Warren County, about an hour west of St. Louis — a few hundred private lakes, a golf course, and a weekend rental market that has been running on city traffic for decades. It is a drive market, and drive markets behave differently than fly markets: demand is steadier, shorter, and less seasonal.

446 Foxfire Cove Drive is a 1991 A-frame on 1.89 park-like acres on Foxfire Lake, minutes from the front gate. The gable is glass from the deck rail to the ridge with timber bracing across it. Inside is 1,200 square feet under exposed beams — an expanded living room, a staircase rather than a ladder up to the loft, a dark-cabinet kitchen, and a screened porch. An elevated deck runs the width of the house, with a fire pit ring and a hot tub in the gravel below.

Recent work: new flooring throughout, fresh paint inside and out, a tankless water heater, a new septic tank. Two bedrooms, two baths.

$589,000, listed yesterday — $491 a square foot with a $261 monthly HOA. It sells fully furnished, which in a weekend rental market is the difference between listing in September and listing next spring.

Bandon sits on the southern Oregon coast, better known now for golf than for anything else. Bandon Dunes arrived about twenty-five years ago and never quite gave the town back. What the resort traffic tends to obscure is the land behind it — shore pine, wind, and parcels still measured

Whitefish sits at the top of the Flathead, eight minutes from a downtown that still reads like a railroad town and eighteen from the Whitefish Mountain Resort base. Most of what gets built up here is chalet or lodge. This is neither. The house is a 2024 A-frame on

Munds Park sits at about 6,500 feet in the ponderosa belt twenty minutes south of Flagstaff, which is where Phoenix goes in August — and why the A-frames here were built large rather than cute. This one, from 1970, is 2,162 square feet under a single steep roof.
