Try glamping in a yome, yurt or geodome
Some Airbnb hosts are incredibly creative and can provide you with a unique experience. Take for example this yome, hosted by Sarah in Weaverville. The homemade dome offers a mini kitchen and a queen bed for those who want to try glamping.
You can also stay in the ecological geodome, a heated room that looks like a tent. There are several geodome stays in North Carolina, including one in Todd, North Carolina.
These domes are for people who don’t want to compromise on comfort but still want to enjoy the outdoors.
Do you like water? Stay on a houseboat

Airbnb guests have the option of staying in a boat-turned-room in the Outer Banks.
This unique property, located in Manteo, costs just $169 a night and includes kayak rentals and WiFi. The Airbnb host describes the rental as a “floating cottage” — perfect for a romantic getaway.
