If you are looking for this summer, then you are likely out of luck as these towns fill up months/years in advance.
I suggest that you go to the website of the towns and do an accommodation search on that website rather than looking at booking.com or airbnb.
The best towns (St. Gilgen, St. Wolfgang, Strobl on the Wolfgangsee are already full for this summer. Look at Gmunden, Mondsee as alternatives.
Also consider looking at lakeside locations in Carinthia, a region of Austria south of Salzburg. Wörthersee is a large lake there and you might get lucky with accommodation.
