When searching for a place to stay in Wyoming beyond the traditional hotel experience, many travelers opt for one of Wyoming's gorgeous cabins. The views, the rustic furnishings, the setting … they're pretty tough to beat! But for those looking for an experience that's even more one-of-a-kind, Airbnb has changed the name of the game when it comes to vacationing in style — and some of its options are pretty cool! While we don't have any private islands or lighthouses for rent here, our state does have a few unexpected vacation rentals hiding around Wyoming that might just fit the bill for the non-traditionalist. Check out some of the most unique Airbnbs in Wyoming:
Travel overseas without the passport when you stay in one of these luxe safari-style tents in Jackson. Memory foam beds, solar lighting, and wood-burning fireplaces ensure a cozy stay, and the high-end restroom facilities mean there won't be any roughing it while you're here! Each glamping tent is beautifully immersed in the trees and all meals are included with your stay, which are served on-site at the main dining tent. But don't just kick back and enjoy the sounds of nature — get out there with one of the ranch's guided horseback rides!
Incredible solitude and wide open spaces are just a few of the many things we love about Guernsey State Park, and the Boho Dome at Cedar Lights Retreat is the perfect spot to enjoy it! The full window wall offers spectacular views of the wildlife passing through, and the skylight offers unobstructed views of Wyoming's brilliant night skies — far away from any light pollution! The 440 acres of pine and cedar covered hills and gorgeous rock formation-dotted surroundings make for a secluded stay perfectly immersed in nature.

Unsure about the whole geodesic dome concept? Don't worry! The Boho Dome comes with a spectacular private hot tub (yes, please!), private outhouse, and small kitchenette so you can enjoy those crisp nights on the deck to the fullest. Want a few extra luxurious touches and a little more space? Check out their sister rental here in Hartville: the Dome Sweet Dome.
Tucked away on a 400-acre organic farm that is fully enveloped by public land, the simple and uniquely-styled Heart Mountain Japanese Cabin pays homage to the history of Heart Mountain, which served as a War Relocation Authority (WRA) facility from 1942 to 1945. Inside, humble furnishings and spa-like touches blend seamlessly, while numerous windows offer impeccable views of the grassland surroundings. Since this cabin is located on a farm-stay ranch, you'll find other activities available beyond admiring the setting both on and off the ranch: lawn games, numerous hiking and mountain bike trails, and even ranch tours. Pro Tip: you'll also find a few other unique stays here as well! Of course, if you've never visited the Heart Mountain Interpretive Center nearby, make it a point to do so.
In true Jackson, Wyoming fashion, even this geodesic dome boasts luxury and chic details! Like many of the best places to stay in Jackson, here you'll find plush fabrics and cowboy couture touches that add a touch of glam to this beautifully located dome - which just so happens to boast some of the most spectacular mountain views you could hope for. While you'll have some neighbors here, you'll also find some extra amenities to enjoy as well: a sauna, fire pit, yard games, en-suite bathroom and kitchenette, and, of course, the unrivaled setting. Hello, Teton sunrise!
Railfans, train enthusiasts, and history buffs alike won't want to pass up a few nights in this converted historic train station! The Powder River Train Depot dates all the way back to 1908, but while guests here will find plenty of vintage railroad memorabilia, time-period décor, and pre-1920s bits of history filling the space, this warm and welcoming abode is certainly not old-fashioned!
For those craving a memorable stay that thinks outside the box, these unique Airbnb stays around Wyoming each offer something special. And the views are pretty great too! As always, if you know of any other fun or quirky rental options or destinations around the state that could use some love, be sure to let us know!
