Thinking of staying in an Airbnb for a week with the wife, some change of scenery (not vacation but work out of a different place). What’s a good place in 3-4 hour driving distance? Looking for some water / hills. Know of any real good Airbnb’s? Thanks fam!

I would guess you’d be looking at Wisconsin or Michigan, either along Lake Michigan or on a lake somewhere. 3-4 hours would open up most of the lower part of Wisconsin as an option.

You might be able to find something around the Wisconsin Dells that would have some nice water and views of the cliffs, not sure about AirBnB specifically, that would be about 3.5 hours drive.

Kalamazoo MI might fit, it’s on Lake Michigan and has the big sand dunes around there.

Hmm I must have confused it with New Buffalo or Michigan City. I know we did a vacation somewhere near the Indiana Dunes State Park which was both hilly and near the water.

Galena, IL has hills. It will be hot there.
Ludington MI
I heard western WI is beautiful too. Never made it there.

I want to start charging people for my services but also want to be reasonable since this is a friend and don't plan to charge a holiday fee. We live in St. Louis. Would $40 per day/night be reasonable?

They didn’t ask for payment and message popped up saying watch your text/email for next steps. Anything else I can do?
