Here's what put the idea in my head:
I have a friend whose parents have a house that is on Killington Mountain. They rent it maybe a half-dozen times throughout the year. The rental income that he gets only covers maybe 2 of his mortgage payments. But because he uses it to generate income, he gets all kinds of write-offs. Not enough to pay for his house certainly, but he is able to offset his out of pocket expenses a bit. The house will never even come close to producing a "profit", but he's able to save a little money.
That's all I was looking for. Appreciate the feedback, I figured there had to be a catch.
