5. A garage full of history
Travelers with an interest in history will love host Maria’s place. It’s a chance to stay in a fully renovated carriage house… garage. That’s right! It is part of a 1920’s home and guests who have stayed here have highlighted the location of this listing and the lovely decor, too, like guest Dennis: “Very welcoming hosts to a quite unique apartment/garage. Stocked with some interesting items which attempt to preserve remnants of a bygone age, while maintaining modern day functionality. Little extra touches were appreciated.” The garage provides everything that a conventional apartment would, with a little twist.

6. Brand new treehouse
Host Darcie fondly calls her listing a “treehouse”, because it is on the second floor and has a covered porch, with an outdoor sitting area, surrounded by trees. It is a brand new property, finished in May of 2017, and has a fully functional kitchen, complete with a full-size fridge, stove, microwave and dishwasher. This rental includes a washer and a dryer, too, so it is very convenient for long stays. It is a wonderful opportunity if you are in the mood for a retreat.
