The Augusta your customers live in
Seasonal and vacation homes make up 12.5% of the housing in Augusta; that is a visitor economy. A visitor economy is uneven: crowded weekends, slow weekdays and out-of-town owners who need work done in their absence. Seasonal hours, how to book or reserve by email, and clear directions belong near the top of the website.
