This is a great residence - very stylish, unique and modern. The small yard and deck in the back are great - but was snow and ice covered in the winter so would probably be lovely in the summer. Wonderful primary suite - very comfortable. Love the architecturally relevant furniture!

We absolutely loved our time at this incredible container house! Every detail was thoughtfully designed, it’s truly stunning inside and out. Aaron was an amazing host, so attentive and quick to answer any questions. We felt completely welcomed from the moment we arrived. The Halloween decorations were fantastic and added such a fun touch. Our brother-in-law’s family lives nearby and had always wondered what this house was like inside it was such a treat for them to finally see it in person! An unforgettable stay in a truly unique home. Highly recommend!
