Hidden away in beautiful, quaint Bottineau, North Dakota is an adorable little getaway that’s as affordable as it is charming. Once upon a time – in the early 20th century – this little place was a simple granary. However, it was moved to its current location and converted into a delightful living space in the early 1940s. Ever since, it’s been the idyllic image of “home”… and now you can spend the night to find out why! This simple, adorable little vacation home rental near Lake Metigoshe (score!) is the perfect escape for anyone looking to relax and unwind without all the bells and whistles of a modern resort (but with all the comforts, though).

From the outside, it pretty much looks like your average family home.
