| Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Derivative Instruments | Derivative Instruments The Company’s objective in using derivative instruments is to manage its exposure to interest rate movements associated with its variable interest rate debt. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate contracts as a primary part of its cash flow hedging strategy. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. In April 2024, Station LLC entered into two zero cost interest rate collar agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $750.0 million. Both interest rate collars include a Term SOFR cap of 5.25% and a weighted average Term SOFR floor of 2.89% and will mature in April 2029. Monthly cash settlements are received from or paid to the counterparties when interest rates rise above or fall below the contractual cap or floor rates. The interest rate collars are not designated in hedging relationships for accounting purposes. The Company records all derivative instruments on the balance sheet at fair value, which it determines using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including forward interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. The Company does not offset derivative asset and liability positions when interest rate contracts are held with the same counterparty. As the Company’s derivative instruments are not designated in hedging relationships, the changes in fair value and the related pretax gains and losses are recognized in Change in fair value of derivative instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the period in which the change occurs. The Company recognizes cash settlements received or paid, if any, on the derivative instruments within Change in fair value of derivative instruments and classifies such cash flows within investing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Station LLC has not posted any collateral related to its interest rate collars; however, its obligations under the interest rate collars are subject to the security and guarantee arrangements applicable to the Credit Facility. The interest rate collar agreements contain cross-default provisions under which Station LLC could be declared in default on its obligations under such agreements if certain conditions of default exist on the Credit Facility.
