Tiny homes have been making waves on the internet for several years now, garnering attention for their coziness and architectural innovation. You may have even seen them on a Netflix show called Tiny House Nation. But even if you don’t see yourself committing to a miniature-sized abode full-time, a tiny home might be perfect for your next vacation. It offers access to remote locations away from everything and everyone, and it’s often a more sustainable option.
So, whether you’re planning a couples retreat, friend getaway, or solo vacation, tiny homes provide an escape from everyday life — often at an affordable price. And what these homes lack in square footage, they make up for in charm. From a modern shipping container rental in Denver, Colorado, to a treehouse-inspired home in Portland, Oregon, to a barn house on wheels in Melbourne, Florida, we’ve rounded up some of the most unique tiny home Airbnbs around the U.S.
