If you’re planning a trip to Colorado, one of the first things on your to-do list is probably finding a great place to stay. One of the best things about Airbnb and the short term rental industry, in my opinion, is the creativity you can find at so many different interesting properties. Finding a really unique Airbnb can add something extra to your vacation and make it an even more memorable experience.
If you’re searching for an unforgettable stay in the mountains, you’ve come to the right place. I’ve rounded up 10 cool Airbnbs in Colorado to add to your travel bucket list!
Historic Trolley Car on an Urban Farm in Denver, Colorado
This funky Denver, Colorado Airbnb is housed inside of a converted historic trolley car! This is where Austin and I stayed on our Colorado weekend trip, and we absolutely loved it. The accommodations were super comfortable and made for some awesome pictures. It’s really affordable (which can be a challenge on Airbnb sometimes when you only have two people) but without sacrificing style or quality. Plus, the property is home to goats, chickens, and a friendly goldendoodle. I can personally recommend this stay!

This is hands down one of the coolest Airbnbs I have ever seen! A church building interior was remodeled into a house, so it looks and feels like you are staying inside of your very own castle. This spot is really spacious with lots of different sleeping arrangement options, so it would be perfect for splitting the cost with a larger group.

Refurbished School Bus in Mancos, Colorado
Can you imagine sleeping inside of an old school bus? So creative! I would definitely consider this more of a camping experience than a hotel experience (see bathroom pics) but it would be such a unique stay for anyone who wants to enjoy a few extra amenities while roughing it out in Western Colorado. Plus, the low price makes it a steal.
