We occasionally share a meal, or glass of wine or whiskey with our guests (if they are interested) it adds to the experience for them and makes it more fun for me and the missus.....We get a LOT of folks that are looking for the Wild West experience.

As long as it's true Butcher Block and NOT the Butcher Block Laminate that made it's way into every 1970's home, I like it, and think it has it's placesPersonally I like it for accent bars or island prep stations, not a big fan of using it in the entire kitchen from a durability standpoint, people tend NOT to maintain things properly and just like lighter color granites that are not sealed properly, a clumsy friend and a glass of red wine could cause a BIG problem!

Mike, You might look at the Temecula Wine country.

I live in the Fort Lauderdale area so I could be biased, like Nicolas said ^^^.

When I was renting an apartment with my wine a few years ago when we were starting out, our landlord required renters insurance.

I've seen wine racks in them too, as well as X-large boxes of cerial. 

And yes, I bet they're paying their other bills just fine, and probably drinking expensive wine as well....Even poor people (if smart) know to make their housing payment the #1 priority in their lives.....

@Marc Nicolàs Mariano very cool post.

Not to mention all the outdoor pursuits and wine country and weather :)

For example with my Airbnb, I like to welcome them with wine and put snacks out for guests when they check in (popcorn, mixed nuts, etc).
