Micro Farm in San Diego
This modern micro farm in a secluded part of San Diego is for travelers who love to eat vegan. In fact, the three-bedroom home includes a garden that grows organic produce. But don't pick the veggies yourself -- a basket will be left at the back door for you and your guests to enjoy.
Rustic Cabin in San Diego
If you love glamping -- you know, an upscale camping experience -- stay at this rustic yet charming cabin in San Diego. The water from your outdoor shower drains directly onto plants around the home. The completely solar-powered home also has a water-free toilet called the "Lovable Loo." In the evenings, you can sit around the Mexican Chiminea fireplace while gazing at the stars.
Charge Your Car in Ann Arbor, Michigan
This home in Ann Arbor, Michigan, is known for being net-zero energy thanks to solar panels and geothermal heating and air-conditioning. In fact, the homeowner hasn't paid an energy bill since 2011, according to the Airbnb listing. Just minutes away from historic Main Street, be sure to charge your electric car with the home's 240v electric vehicle charging station.
Tree House in Los Angeles
