This converted wagon will awaken your sense of adventure

You could stay in a hotel, you could stay in a bed and breakfast, but if it’s a genuine, rustic experience you’re after we think you’re better off in an Airbnb.

Today’s property, a converted sheep wagon dating back to the 1920s, is the perfect example of this. Located in Shirley Basin, a small town in the US state of Wyoming, this property gives you a chance to really sit back and appreciate the natural beauty the stars and stripes is known for, while enjoy a stay that’s a little bit different.

It might not look like much from the outside, but if you scroll through the gallery above you’ll notice there’s much more to this property than meets the eye. It had a full-size bed that fits two, with another bed to accommodate a couple more. There’s built-in cold boxes for food storage, a pull-out table and a fully restored stove.

The real attraction with this property however is the surrounds. The ranch is located on a beautiful 30,000-acre spread that you’re welcome to enjoy and explore. Fish in beautiful lakes and rivers, wander through a petrified forest, go mountain biking, bird watching or simply sit back and marvel at the beautiful sunrises and sunsets.
