Arkansas has caves, treehouses, and hobbit holes, but did you know our state also has a vacancy at a nuclear missile complex? We’ve heard of silos being converted before, but this is undoubtedly the only launch control complex we’ve seen on AirBnB. Anyone searching for a truly unique overnight adventure has hit the target with a stay at the Titan II Nuclear Missile Complex. Let’s explore this underground retreat in 3, 2, 1:
The small town of Vilonia has a secret hiding underground.
Not many folks know about the decommissioned Titan II Nuclear Missile complex that's ready for reservations. During the height of the Cold War, Arkansas housed 18 of these launch complexes. Before we go underground to tour this unique lodging, you can read up on your Titan II history right here.
This spacious complex is not your typical themed B&B—it's the real thing!
After heading down a couple of flights of stairs, you'll be staying inside the original Launch Control Center and Blast Lock area. The complex feels (and is) certainly authentic, but it has been upgraded to accommodate guests.

The history of this complex may have started in the 50s, but the amenities are quite modern. It's over 3000 square feet and features a completely underground self-contained home.
Guests enjoy a spacious master bedroom and three baths. There's WiFi throughout the location, in addition to notable amenities like an EV charger and impressive bluetooth sound system.
You and your friends will be able to recreate your favorite action movie scenes while watching them on the big screen. Just don't stay up too late—you wouldn't want to miss the complimentary breakfast in the morning!
Take advantage of this one-of-a-kind lodging and reserve this piece of history for yourself.
Rates are around $320-380 depending on party size. The complex can hold up to six guests, which means everyone can stay for under $75/person! Read through the details and book your stay at the Titan II Nuclear Missile Complex right here.
