Going To Idaho? Veg Out In This Potato for a Night (Yes, You Read That Right)
If you were to create an Airbnb listing from scratch, you’d probably spend some time thinking about how to make it lucrative. One way to ensure an Airbnb listing is a hit is to create a rental that is exceptionally different from the others. Travelers—especially in this Instagram era—love having a story to tell about their trip, and that story is even better if it happens to be accompanied by photos of a one-of-a-kind space.
Enter: a potato listing located in Boise, Idaho.
Yes, you read that correctly. To be accurate, her listing is not the edible and delicious dietary staple we call the potato, but rather a wagon-suggestive structure shaped like one. The description doesn’t offer much information about the faux carb-loaded retreat, but its weight is mentioned: six tons. No. Big. Deal.
The salability of this listing is, of course, tied to Idaho’s bountiful potato farms. Kitschy accommodations have their place, and we wouldn’t want to live in a world without them. Although this potato-den doesn’t have any reviews yet, we predict the owner will have a booked-out calendar sooner rather than later.
The interior of this rental happens to be gorgeous and not at all like a root vegetable. Minimalist design with mid-century nods and modern accents help to create an attractive aesthetic for this spot (that can sleep two, by the way). It’s earthy yet simultaneously chic; the design feels cohesive with the farm landscape just outside the front door. This is a place where we wouldn’t hesitate to veg out.
Stays start at $200 per night. Check out more on this starchy listing here.
