What's the most 'wishlisted' Wisconsin Airbnb? This Frank Lloyd Wright house in Two Rivers
Airbnb has no shortage of interesting properties you can rent to get away from it all. That includes homes made from shipping containers in Indianapolis and a treehouse with a hot tub in North Carolina.
The rental company recently unveiled the properties that were the most wishlisted in each U.S. state. In Alaska, it's a one-bedroom bus. Florida has a converted Chinook helicopter. Kentucky offers a "glamping" experience with a geodesic dome.
But if you're searching for a Wisconsin getaway, Airbnb guests enjoy the historic Still Bend/Frank Lloyd Wright's Schwartz House in Two Rivers.
The famed architect and designer created the Manitowoc County home in 1939 for Bernard and Fern Schwartz.
"Whether it's two days or two weeks, you will experience the genius of Frank Lloyd Wright's vision for American family life," its Airbnb listing said.
For those who just want a glimpse inside, the property also offers tours for the public.
It's been featured in several television shows, including Netflix's "The World's Most Amazing Vacation Rentals," and 20 magazines, according to the listing.
Here's what to know about it:
The historic home is located on the East Twin River about one mile from Lake Michigan, its listing says.
The rental can accommodate up to eight guests with four bedrooms, four beds and three bathrooms, according to its Airbnb listing. The home comes equipped with Wi-Fi, a washer, dryer, TV, private backyard, free on-site parking and more.
Since the rental is an "experience living in the space as it might have been in 1940," there is no air conditioning.
"Two Rivers, however, is in northern Wisconsin located on Lake Michigan and is known as "Cool City" because of the microclimate created by the lake that keeps the city about 15 degrees cooler than inland locations," the listing said. "There are fans and screens to create a breeze through the house when it is a little warm. Evenings are always cool in Two Rivers."
It costs about $695 per night to stay at Wisconsin's most wishlisted Airbnb, not including a $75 cleaning fee and a varying Airbnb service fee, depending on length of stay.
You can book a trip at the Still Bend/Frank Lloyd Wright's Schwartz House by going on Airbnb's website or using its app.

Trump's new travel ban set to take effect amid escalating tension over immigration enforcement
President Donald Trump's new ban on travel to the U.S. by citizens from 12 mainly African and Middle Eastern countries is set to take effect Monday amid escalating tension over the president's unprecedented campaign of immigration enforcement. The new proclamation, which Trump signed on Wednesday, applies to citizens of Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen. It also imposes heightened restrictions on people from Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan and Venezuela who are outside the U.S. and don't hold a valid visa. The new ban does not revoke visas previously issued to people from countries on the list, according to guidance issued Friday to all U.S. diplomatic missions. However, unless an applicant meets narrow criteria for an exemption to the ban, his or her application will be rejected starting Monday. Travelers with previously issued visas should still be able to enter the U.S. even after the ban takes effect. Haitian-American Elvanise Louis-Juste, who was at the airport Sunday in Newark, New Jersey, awaiting a flight to her home state of Florida, said many Haitians wanting to come to the U.S. are simply seeking to escape violence and unrest in their country. "I have family in Haiti, so it's pretty upsetting to see and hear," Louis-Juste, 23, said of the travel ban. "I don't think it's a good thing. I think it's very upsetting." Many immigration experts say the new ban is designed to beat any court challenge by focusing on the visa application process and appears more carefully crafted than a hastily written executive order during Trump's first term that denied entry to citizens of mainly Muslim countries. In a video posted Wednesday on social media, Trump said nationals of countries included in the ban pose "terrorism-related" and "public-safety" risks, as well as risks of overstaying their visas. He also said some of these countries had "deficient" screening and vetting or have historically refused to take back their citizens. His findings rely extensively on an annual Homeland Security report about tourists, businesspeople and students who overstay U.S. visas and arrive by air or sea, singling out countries with high percentages of nationals who remain after their visas expired. Trump also tied the new ban to a terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado, saying it underscored the dangers posed by some visitors who overstay visas. The man charged in the attack is from Egypt, a country that is not on Trump's restricted list. U.S. officials say he overstayed a tourist visa. The ban was quickly denounced by groups that provide aid and resettlement help to refugees. "This policy is not about national security — it is about sowing division and vilifying communities that are seeking safety and opportunity in the United States," said Abby Maxman, president of Oxfam America, a nonprofit international relief organization. Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro's government condemned the travel ban, characterizing it in a statement as a "stigmatization and criminalization campaign" against Venezuelans.

Kava Bars: A Relaxing Social Experience
American kava culture is inspired by the hundreds of nakamals (kava bars) in the Melanesian island country of Vanuatu in the South Pacific, where locals go to buy coconut shells full of kava tea to drink, sit at picnic tables, and relax with friends or conduct casual business, Tyler Blythe, co-founder of the Root of Happiness Kava Bar, told The Epoch Times via email.
