Our Favorite Finds for a Rustic Airbnb Stay

So, you have an Airbnb property away from the noise and bustle of the city, and you know that your lodging would be the ideal place for your guests to recharge their batteries. To gain more visitors, you may market your Airbnb as “rustic” to enhance relaxation. When people hear the word rustic, they imagine a simpler style that reflects a simpler way of life. 

To add charm to your property, you may want to choose suitable pieces to add to the atmosphere of a rustic getaway. Here, you will find some ideas that will add a touch of rustic character to your lodging. The pieces here range from tables to lights, but this is just a small sample of what you can find on Amazon.

What could be more rustic than a rocking chair? This varnished pine piece is a fine example of American craftsmanship.

Games offer something fun and engaging rather than watching TV and are perfect for a rainy evening. Many people have forgotten the simple pleasures of sitting around a table playing a game together.

Yucanucax Decorative Lantern

Candlelight always sheds a warm, romantic glow. But you might be wary of using candles in your lodging, especially if there are young children around. These lanterns make a good substitute. At 4” x 9”, the lantern is a handy size, and you can place them anywhere. The light looks like candlelight but is a battery-powered LED.

You might like to use one as a centerpiece for the dining table, or you could hang the lantern on a patio. The lantern has a timer which might be useful if your guests are out for the evening but want to give the impression that someone is home. 

You might like to have a couple of these around in case of power outages. Please note that the lanterns function on AAA batteries, so make sure you have some around.
