A giant potato prop in Idaho is now an Airbnb rental at $200 a night

Idaho is known for its consistently high-quality potatoes, and now visitors can sleep in a giant fake one if they can afford $200 a night.

As pointed out by the Detroit Free Press, a potato "hotel" the size of a small house is now a place people can stay.  It's located in a field southeast of capital Boise.  Interested travels can check out its official Airbnb rental page:

The actual prop is 28-feet long and made from steel, plaster and concrete.  It was made to celebrate the Idaho Potato Commission's 75th anniversary, according to the Free Press, and has been on the road for the last seven years until owner Kristie Wolfe decided to let people stay inside.

Here’s a video documenting its construction:
