If your idea of a perfect vacation involves beautiful scenery and a nice glass of bourbon, you'll want to visit the Jim Beam American Stillhouse.
Earlier this week, Jim Beam announced that it would be opening up the first-ever Airbnb rental property on its distillery ground in Kentucky. The Jim Beam American Stillhouse, as the vacation home is known, is a three-bedroom home with a fully stocked bar and backyard fire pit. Those who stay at the house will also enjoy a Jim Beam distillery tour and a bourbon tasting. There will also be plenty of barbecue served.
But perhaps the best part is the price. At just $23 per night, the picturesque rental property is the exact same price as a bottle of Jim Beam Black Bourbon.
