Beloved's Rest - Shipping Container AirBnB in Collinsville, AL

A co-worker of mine showed me this AirBnB link at the gym one day and mentioned that one of our members owns it and was offering our staff a discount to stay there -- only 1.5 hours away, and SUCH a cute little shipping container tiny house up on a mountain peak.

When I showed Ben, he immediately said, "Let's book it."  So we did.  We went up there on a Wednesday afternoon and spent the night in a shipping container.

The video shows it best -- it was so comfortable, quiet, private and beauitful.  With all the windows, it didn't matter that it was *very* cold and windy outside the night we stayed.  The view was just as good from the warm couch as the outdoor firepit.

Mostly it was a nice getaway for us to hang out together, OUTSIDE of our house.  We had a great trip up there, stopping for food and shopping, and then just relaxed and rested once we arrived.  

Ben insisted on enjoying the outside...even though he forgot a coat and had to borrow my sweatshirt and a car blanket to try and keep warm!

I was happy and warm from inside.

It was such a cool little spot, and I would definitely go back -- especially in the fall when you could see all the fall colors.
