Talk About Your Favorite Airbnb Experience!
I'll go first: I stayed in Lusby, MD on a lake for a couple nights as a last minute booking for a work trip. The pictures were unbelievable and I could not wait to get to the house. It was a super quiet area, a shared house booking but I had the entire basement. I walked into a glass sliding door which was cool and entered into a studio apartment basically. 40+ inch TV was mounted and swung out towards the bed which was super nice. I could control the lights outside for the seating area and the fans which kept mosquitoes away. Waking up on the Lake was amazing and I even got some fishing in before work. Check in and check out instructions were super detailed and helpful. Everything was labeled correctly and helped to guide me learning to live there. Had a huge desk with a desk top which was nice for working, a full kitchen, fridge, etc. Had all the supplies to live there for a month if I wanted or longer. They even had menus on the table so that when I was hungry, all the best restaurants were laid out for me. Exceptionally clean and smelled nice. Only downside was that the water smelled a little funny from the sulfur since they were on well water.
None of that really mattered because what made the stay was the host. I asked the host about fishing, he actually offered to go with me! We hungout for hours, he brought drinks, his dad lined and supplied rods, and I had a fantastic time. It was truly a one of a kind experience and an easy 5 stars. The guy running it was 21 and was a super host on airbnb. Had amazing hustle and we talked real estate the entire night while catfishing. Great people and led to great times.
Hopefully hosts can use this post as a way to boost their airbnb listings.
