Unusual or 'offbeat' hotels

It may not have the quirkiness of the Ice Hotel or posh tented camps, but I've always been curious about the Fire Mountain Bed & Breakfast in Highlands, N.C. After all, you have the option of spending a night or two in a tree house, for crying out loud.

Unfortunately, Fire Mountain's accomodations don't rank among Sherman Travel's Top 10 Offbeat Hotels -- but it's got to be close.

Writes Shermans about its top 10: "There's a hotel out there to satisfy most every curiosity—whether you're into marine life, wildlife, or Eskimo life ... [s]o say goodbye to so-so lodging and catch your zzz's in one of our favorite offbeat hotels. ..."

A tree house sounds cool to me.

Are there other unique accomodations in North Carolina aside from Fire Mountain's tree houses?
