Help With Colorado Airbnb Listing Name

Hey BiggerPockets Community! 

I'm workshopping name ideas for a new Airbnb I am listing/managing here in Colorado. It's in the country/rural area East of Longmont. It's 30-45 min to Denver, Boulder, and Fort Collins. And just over an hour to Estes Park.  This is a mother-in-law / guest wing of a custom built passive home (self sustainable from solar,high efficiency electric/insolation) very pretty, and feels like you are in the country for sure with some mountain views on the clear days. I'm trying to come up with good listing names and thought I would reach out for suggestions and if anybody has insight into tips and tricks for the Airbnb algorithm when it comes to listing names, I'm all ears. You only get 50 characters so it's tough!  Here's what I've thought of so far:

Eco-friendly country getaway. Quick trip to city & mountains. 

Country Escape with Outdoor Firepit & Grill. 

Rural Retreat close to Denver

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or feedback!

@Ryan Williams Congrats on your new property and new listing! I follow Avery Carl's (the G.O.A.T.'s) suggestions and have had success with it for my listings. Be descriptive, avoid subjective words, use emoji's to stay efficient with character count, and avoid putting creative property names in the headline because that does not help the guest understand your listing. Guests are often looking for things like bedroom and bathroom count, how many people can stay, what type of house it is, etc. Also I'd like to offer a quick tip; use an app like Canva to put text of your listing's title in the cover photo. This helps you stand out since Airbnb has removed the listing name from being shown in search results. There are rumors that the listing names in search results will be coming back, but its still good to have a vibrant cover photo with large text describing your property to set yourself aside from other listings. Its also good while your property is new to have something along the lines of "New Listing Special" or similar in the title.

Here's the name that I would suggest for your first bookings until you get about 30-40 reviews: ​​Central New Listing Special! XBR/YBA♻️🏡🔥Pit (50 characters)

And the one I would suggest for bookings after about 30-40 reviews: Central Retreat 30min to DT XBR/YBA♻️🏡 w/ 🔥Pit (50 characters)

You can always have your STR listing's description go deeper into the Eco-freindly details to hook the guests and convert them from viewers to bookers! I put a full description of the times to different locations in my listing's "Where you'll be" section.

Here's the G.O.A.T.'s video where I got these suggestions from. Best of luck!
