Looking for a unique place for a quick getaway? Head to Hanksville, where you can stay in a cave dwelling. You’ve never seen anything like this!
From the outside, this property on Airbnb.com looks just like a normal, two-story home...
This cave was created by a salty cowboy from the area named A.C. Ekker. He thought a home in a cave sounded cool, so he blasted one right into the red rock cliff!
His home was built in the 1980s, and today it's offered as an Airbnb.com rental. Hang out in the family room area of the home, surrounded by red rock walls, and enjoy the leather seating and 70-inch television.
This family room has two sofa sleepers and there is also room to set up the inflatable mattresses stored here so you can accommodate several guests in the cave room!
The large kitchen is located in the front portion of the house, and it's fully-outfitted with everything you need to create meals for even a large group.
