This Delaware Airbnb Is Like Stepping onto the Set of “Almost Famous”

Delaware might be a small state, but it's rich with great spots for the summer. As the weather warms up, small towns like Bethany Beach turn into vacation wonderlands. There are always plenty of hotels to stay in the area, but if you're looking for something truly unique, why not check into a Skoolie near Bethany Beach? This unique Airbnb, the only one of its kind in the First State, is a fully tricked-out renovated school bus that sleeps four guests and packs a lot of surprises in a small space.

The creative lodging aside, I was taken aback by just how much this getaway reminded me of one of my favorite movies, Almost Famous. The nostalgia-packed Cameron Crowe movie about a teenage boy who gets to join his favorite band on the road in 1973 featured several key scenes on the band's tour bus. When you're relaxing aboard this unique Skoolie, it'll be easy to dream you're on your way to the next stop on your epic rock tour!

From the moment you arrive at this parked Skoolie, you'll be hit with a wave of nostalgia. This is a classic bus, just like the one Stillwater used to ride around in—well, when it was working! The good news is, this bus doesn't have to get to its next gig in a hurry. In fact, it's not going anywhere—it's been transformed into an impressive vacation stay. Your area includes an outdoor area with deck chairs and a fire pit.

As soon as you walk inside, you'll be blown away by the work the owner has put into this bus. The entire thing has been totally transformed into a roomy getaway with a full kitchen and room for four people to sleep. The driver's area is now a living room, with plenty of space for reading or playing games.

If you're like me, you were wondering how a school bus could fit everything we would need in there. Well, there's one thing you won't find on the bus: a bathroom. But worry not—rather than try to install a plumbing system on an old school bus, the management team has provided access to a separate full indoor bathroom only twenty feet away.

Towards the back of the bus, you'll find the bedrooms. This vacation stay features one full-sized bed suitable for a couple, with a charming and rustic environment.

Only a few feet away, you'll find a bunk bed that makes you feel like you're away at summer camp. This is a great stay option for a family looking for an adventure. If you're into a rustic getaway, there are goats on the ground, and farm-fresh eggs are for sale.
