FALLINGWATER

I learned yesterday that there's a new program that allows guests to spend 2 days and 2 nights at Frank Lloyd Wright's masterpiece, Fallingwater, in Bear Run, PA.

Well, it turns out that guests actually don't stay inside the actual house – they spend the night at a four-bedroom house on the property for a whopping $1,195 per person. In any case, the Fallingwater Organization runs regular day tours throughout the week. 

The architectural marvel was built between 1936–1939 over a 30-ft waterfall. Wright's intention was for the sound of the water falling to become part of the homeowners' everyday life. In this way, the home seems fully integrated into nature.

Check out the floor plans here. I never knew it was so huge!
