- Gold Country for cabins and rivers.
Filters that speed booking
- Instant Book, self check-in, free parking.
- Optional: hot tub, fireplace, EV charger.
- Cap the price and keep distances realistic (3 hours max).
Two-pass shortlist
- Pass 1: Apply AirFLTR filters and add 6–8 options that fit the vibe.
