We've put together a list of 8 of the most unique and quirky places to stay in Idaho! Tell us which one is your favorite!
1. The Big Idaho Potato Hotel - Orchard, Idaho - You've read that correctly. The retired Big Idaho Potato that traveled thousands of miles across our country with the Idaho Potato Commission has found a home south-east of Boise in a little berg called Orchard, Idaho. This 6 ton potato is now a 1 bed, 1 bath, airbnb with a/c, heat, indoor fireplace and lots of charm. It's not quite done being renovated but you can now book the
Big Idaho Potato Hotel on airbnb for it's opening date of April 6th, 2019.

2. Smiley Creek Lodge Teepee - Sawtooth City, Idaho - Growing up I loved the Disney movie Pocahontas and always wanted to live in a teepee so staying in the
Smiley Creek Lodge teepee is a dream come true for me. This large canvas teepee is glamping at it's finest. The teepee is equipped with beautiful wood floors, a queen bed with a heated blanket, a wooden bench and night stands with lamps. If you're not into the teepee idea there is an adorable yurt right next door.

3. Dog Bark Park Inn - Cottonwood, Idaho - Dubbed the worlds biggest beagle, the
Dog Bark Park Inn is one of the quirkiest and most recognizable guesthouses in Idaho. Guests stay in the two-story beagle overlooking the rolling green hills of the Cottonwood area. This is the one time when sleeping in the doghouse isn't a bad thing. Before you leave make sure to pick up a chainsaw art beagle to remember your dog-themed stay.

4. Treehouse on Lake Pend O'reille - Sandpoint, Idaho - Just two miles outside of Sandpoint, this three-story treehouse overlooks the beautiful Pend O'reille River. The detailed woodwork and panoramic overlook windows make this stay one out of a fairy tale. With a/c, lake access, and a private dock, I'm not sure I'd ever leave. Check out their
airbnb listing here.

5. The Idaho Castle - Hope, Idaho - Located in the panhandle of the state,
the Idaho Castle is what dreams are made of for princesses of all ages. This giant 6,300 sqft house has 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, and sleeps 16 people. It overlooks Lake Pend O'reille with views of the lake and opposing mountains and it's conical rooftop peaks above the surrounding pine trees like out of a scene from the movies. View their
VRBO for more details.

6. Arid Peak Fire Lookout - Wallace, Idaho - This 1934 fire lookout was taken out of commission in 1969 until it was restored in 1997 to be
rented out to the public. The lookout towers high about the trees in the Bitterroot Mountains with beautiful views from every side. The lookout is available to rent from late June - late September and requires a 3 mile hike to access. While you're there, take you bikes to enjoy a ride along the
Hiawatha trail. Read more about Arid Peak in this great article from the
Visit Idaho website.

7. Owl Barn - Driggs, Idaho - This cozy little cabin is actually the loft of an old owl barn located on 2.5 acres in the heart of the Teton Valley. Being just nine miles from the base of Grand Targhee Ski Resort and an hour from Jackson Hole, this place is an outdoors man's dream. Fishing, skiing, hiking, biking, and snowshoeing are just a few of the activities that are nearby. Check out their

I have always dreamt of winning BIG in the lottery. I surfed the internet for help to win the lottery massively and I was directed to the DR Amber website. I had a chat with him about what I needed and he assured me that his spell will make me become a lottery winner. He got back to me after 3 days with the numbers that I needed to play the lottery and told me to believe in myself. I felt enveloped by the control of the spell. I took his words and played the Mega Millions Lottery. Two days later, I was sent an email that I've won the sum of 107 Million Dollars. I was shocked and couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing. Immediately I was given the cash prize, I stopped working. I want to say a very big thank you to DR Amber for helping people like us who really need help. Now I know that there's absolutely nothing too hard for DR Amber to do. To get in touch with him, email : amberlottotemple@yahoo.com or click his webpage URL___ amberlottotemple.com
