I've spent several years writing about Airbnb rentals throughout Idaho, but none have featured the kind of natural, relaxing addition that one I recently discovered 180 miles northwest of Twin Falls has just a few steps out the backdoor.
My ideal Airbnb would offer a hot tub, billiards, and outdoor firepit. The Tetonia property has all of this, as well as an onsite saloon and wooden deck overlooking a lazy stream that are both accessible to guests.
There's a queen-sized bed, breakfast nook, storage shelves, wood floors and walls, and a pathway to a lounge area that has a spectacular view. The rental is listed as a one-bed, with a half-bath for two people, and is one of the more romantic listings you'll find anywhere.
When you need a vacation but don't want to fly or go super far, lucky for us there are unbelievable places to visit in the gem state. From some of the most amazing lakes, hot springs, and natural landscape dotted with cozy and unique Airbnbs to explore.
Add high dollar amounts with the added pressure of making quick decisions to secure a spot. It is a enticing combo for -dirty rotten- scammers who take advantage of people to steal their money.
The only request I might have for the owners of the cabin, is if it's cool if I move one of the guest beds outside so I can enjoy the view until I crash out.
