4. This guest house at a horse ranch in Darby
This cozy 750 square foot guest home, which you'll find on Airbnb, sits in the middle of 20 lush acres bordering US Forest Service. And while an abundance of lakes, rivers, and hiking trails are nearby, you'll be excited to return to your own private hot tub.
