'The Box Hop' is a shipping container home that was created as a one-of-a-kind dwelling by a couple in Ohio and designed with the utmost attention to detail. Available for rental via Airbnb, the dwelling features a two-story design that was achieved by three shipping containers being combined together with two on the main level and one for the top floor. The luxury accommodation is outfitted with a total of three bedrooms and two bathrooms as well as ample outdoor space to let guests enjoy the surrounding natural environment as much as possible.
'The Box Hop' is nestled in the wilderness and features ample windows throughout to give guests the feeling of camping without leaving creature comforts behind.
