How do yall book?

Asides from Airbnb (which we’re not too keen about) and hotels are there any other booking sites/options to look at? We’re in Southern Appalachia and plan on honeymooning somewhere in the region.

I considered Airbnb but its such a hit or miss and honestly better for large groups to get any bang for your buck. We are not too savvy on booking so any advice is appreciated. I know some hotels have private/honeymoon suites but I’m not sure how all that works.

Additionally, we have a tight budget. Like, not much more than 1,300 probably.
