One of my favorite things to do when we travel is to find unique and crazy places to stay. From a treehouse in the Amazon Rainforest to a Martian Tent in Wadi Rum and a hut on top of Mount Fuji – we’ve had some great experiences!
However, with being home in Wisconsin this summer, I didn’t want this crazy accommodation streak to end! And you know what – Wisconsin has some incredibly cool Airbnbs and vacation rentals to stay in. There are treehouses, yurts, tons of tiny homes, barns, silos and even a converted train caboose!
I’d love to hear which is your favorite Airbnb in the comments at the end of the post. Enjoy!
