A stay at Danville

A unique stay for fans of vintage Americana and classic vehicles, this destination is filled with antiques and memorabilia collected by Shaw at antique markets and estate sales (via The Orlando Sentinel), including a working pinball machine, vintage license plates, and a large bar created from an old jet fuel tank. Under a shiny glass top, you will find an enviable collection of patches, insignia, and ephemera from America's aviation and automotive past. The corrugated metal structure has a vintage garage feel. Still, it's outfitted with all modern amenities like a cozy fireplace, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a full bathroom, and a lofted sleeping area that can sleep up to three guests. The property is also pet-friendly. 

This Airbnb also has all the comforts of a man cave, including leather furniture, a large television, and a media station with shelves. While there isn't a full kitchen, guests can take advantage of a coffee machine, microwave, and mini fridge area near the bar. It even boasts a corner massage chair, a coveted item in almost any man cave. The space is awash in bright primary colors with accents like checkered black and white decor, ample vintage signage, and historic details everywhere you look. 

Unique amenities befitting a man cave

This property is adjacent to a real live automotive garage and air hanger, with a collection of classic aircraft and cars for perusing, as well as a selection of golf carts designed like classic cars to drive on the property.
