Ideal for couples, this Airbnb shows a cozy little A-frame cabin that laid-back love birds will appreciate.

After a long satisfying day, you can chill on the porch while having tea (or coffee) or enjoy alfresco dining at the picnic table. I suggest you and your partner take advantage of the grill and have a fun cookout under the stars for a unique experience.
