The new owners of Frank Lloyd Wright's Palmer House in Ann Arbor, Michigan have opened the house for rental guests. The unique home from the early 1950s was one of the last in Wright's career and has been "perfectly preserved" — it's still furnished with the collection of Wright-designed furniture that was custom designed to fit in the home's unusual triangular geometry.
The 2,000 square feet home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and includes a tea house! Sleeping six, the Palmer House rents for $300-$400 a night or $2,000 a week. There are additional images on the Palmer House site as well as the rental home's listing on Home Away | Original Frank Lloyd Wright Secluded Home with Tea House.

I've been through this house it is a great example of how he typically designed so natural light is captured from a clerestory or a room beyond a space and light is reflecting off concrete floors and artificial light is always reflected off the ceilings..he was a master at that.
I second BruceS63's suggestion.
Yes please! I live about a mile away from this house. Another house nearby is FLW inspired, and has been on the market for over a year. I still can't believe how low the price has gotten without any takers!

there are some great houses in Ann Arbor.
Yay! I grew up in Ann Arbor where my Dad started a historical preservation architectural firm - so I was surrounded by this kind of stuff as a kid. That would be an awesome idea to have a weekend stay there as a giveaway prize or contest!
