Virginia offers so many unique adventures that we could probably spend our entire lives exploring – and never see it all. If you’re desperately craving some time away from the noise of life, you might want to take a look at this donkey farm in Virginia. It’s home to a retro bus and probably one of the most unique Airbnbs in the entire state.
Don't expect your run-of-the-mill getaway when you climb aboard this 1957 Greyhound bus turned Airbnb in Abingdon.
This is an adventure for those who want an old-school, off-grid experience that will leave you with lifelong memories you just won't get from a brand name hotel.
You'll have a full list of modern amenities - WiFi, electricity, hot and cold water, and air conditioners. The bus also has a bathroom with a toilet and a shower.
However, there are a few things you should know before booking your stay. You can hear noises from the farm when you're in your home away from home. You'll have a small hot water heater, so quick showers are a must.
When it rains really hard, some of the water might drip through the windows. No worries, though, as it's nothing a few paper towels can't handle. If you're up for those challenges, you're in for a real treat.
Affectionately called the Big A** Bus by the farm's owners and your hosts, this tiny home comfortably sleeps up to two guests and sits right along the Creeper Trail.
While you'll be able to kick back and watch the smart TV as you surf online on the bus, you'll likely want to spend some time outdoors, soaking up the ambiance of this one-of-a-kind destination.
