As always with Airbnb, be sure you take a look at those additional fees before you signup to stay somewhere. Those maintenance fees can sneak up on you quick. I decided to take a look at just the nightly fees and see what the highest and lowest were. Let's start at the bottom for just $53 a night.

We have Budget Saver Duplex A! Newly refurbished Duplex built in 1925. Sits in an older affordable/moderate income neighborhood. Nice, quiet, family friendly street. Great neighbors who have been in the area for years. It is located 7.6 miles (13 minutes) from Sheppard Air Force Base/2.6 miles (7 minutes) from Midwestern State University/1.9 miles (6 minutes) from MPEC.

I would say if you and your significant other need a place, this doesn't look bad. Believe me, when I searched for lowest price I was expecting something WAY worse. I wouldn't mind staying here. One question, what's with the bathtub flower bed in the front of the house? It's an interesting choice.

Alright, time to ball out and go for the best. We have the Vacation Home! $600 a night gets you this place. The whole house will be available except for the garage. A desk to work on. A big living room with vaulted ceiling and a big screen tv. 2 full bathrooms and a very nice private patio big enough for a cook out. The patio also has a ceiling fan and a mounted 42" tv.

It also has a pool and I am sure that is why it ranks near the top for priciest in the city. Plus you get a bunk bed and that means more room for activities. Plus that kid really likes the Incredible Hulk and that's cool in my book. We have a lot of options in our city and these are just the top and bottom when it comes to price. Go see what we have in our area if you want a place to stay besides a hotel.

The land encompassing them was either purchased or donated, though much of it had been inhabited by native people for thousands of years before the founding of the United States. These areas are protected and revered as educational resources about the natural world, and as spaces for exploration.
