As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.

Sometimes, you come upon something (or somewhere) that absolutely seems too good to be true; sometimes, it is too good to be true, but others, you end up finding someplace amazing that you find yourself drawn to time and time again. We found a gorgeous and unique Airbnb in Indiana that checks that box: seems to be way too amazing, but it’s legit. Check it out and see why this little church should be your new home away from home:

From the outside, it doesn't look like much - but don't let that fool you.

You know all the things they say about judging a book by its cover; you'd be doing yourself a disservice to judge this stay by its exterior.
Once you set foot inside, you won't believe this little place was originally built in 1872!

Of course, it's been modernized all over on the inside, and it's got all the amenities you've likely come to expect, like high-speed wifi and a full kitchen.
The highly-modernized interior seems to be at odds with the quaint, old-school exterior.

We think it might be that odd juxtaposition that draws us to this little place the most. We're big fans of eccentric charm, and this little church-turned-overnight-stay is home to plenty of that.
