Unique ‘Earthouse’ Retreat with Spring-Fed Creek
“In third place, (this) is a one-of-a-kind stay that blends creative architecture with modern designs,” Airbnb says. “Enjoying this Earthhouse isn’t hard.”
The 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom underground home in a Springfield neighborhood is “complete with high-end furnishings, modern decor, and abundant natural light,” according to host Monica.
The retreat space is described as “perfect for couples traveling together or families in need of a relaxing escape and a taste of luxury!”
Stays cost about $385 a night.
“Unexpected delights included dozens of cool books and magazines about design, architecture and other inviting topics, along with framed site plans and artist renderings on the walls,” one reviewer said. “Having our four kids along, we were so happy to discover the many vintage children’s books. What a treasure. There were also many toys, board games and lawn games. I needn’t have packed a single thing to entertain our 4 kids.”
TreeLoft at BaseCamp
“This custom built treehouse lies off the beaten path, nestled into the woods of a 120 acre farm, providing guests with silence, serenity and plenty of natural light,” Airbnb says. “In case you prefer star gazing from the indoors, the house features a skylight with an unobstructed view of the Milky Way.”
The “luxury treehouse for two” was designed to connect you with both nature and your travel partner, according to hosts Waylon and Kaci Richardet.
The loft includes a gas fireplace, skylight above the king-size bed, a rain shower for two and a soaking tub. It’s also home to an outdoor hot tub, fire-pit and games to play.
The one-bedroom, one-bathroom home is in Perryville, about 82 miles south of downtown St. Louis.
Stays cost about $304 a night.
“Perfect place to getaway for some peace and quiet,” a reviewer said. “Everything as described. Nothing but good things to say about the whole experience.”
