From the owner

We've all seen Shipping Container homes, but how many of us can say we've actually stayed in one? Built from recycled shipping containers, these simply amazing, durable, iron boxes were once used to ship just about anything imaginable around the globe by land and sea.

Now, with a new lease on life, FLOPHOUZE has transformed these containers into unique, comfortable, cozy living spaces. Come Stay, you won't want to leave.

FlopHouze IV can sleep 6 comfortably by offering a private room with a queen bed along with twin bunkbeds. In the living room, we have a full size pull out couch that can sleep an additional 2 people. An efficient hollywood bathroom separates the space with an iron and hair dryer. Outside, each houze has its own firepit, hammock and chairs. Inside, the kitchenette features a sink, microwave, mini fridge, tea kettle and coffee maker for the morning get up an goers! The interiors are cladded with sustainably harvested wood from our farm in upstate New York and reclaimed lumber from a distillery in Kentucky. The windows were salvaged from a school in Philadelphia that was slated for demolition, and provide tons of natural light. On a playful note, we installed kitchen cabinet bases from an FDA laboratory in Brooklyn, and old bowling alley floors from Texas for the countertops! Upon your arrival, each houze will have complimentary coffee and tea, Topochico sparkling water, and Mexican Cokes. Just a short drive away in Round Top, there is a market for light snacks and other goodies. Every detail has been carefully crafted to ensure that your stay is a memorable one

Interaction with guest

For the most part this is a non-hosted property. Matt likes to give his guests space. There are many times he will be traveling to go find more worldly treasures and trinkets, so you may have the place all to yourself. If you happen to need anything during your stay, you can find the contact information in our welcome book. Our 12,000 sqft store Recycling the Past will be right in your back yard to peruse through at your leisure and there may be some employees from time to time running around as well as other guests.

Keep your area clean… its the country and critters are curious. We must obey the burn bans - if it's NO, it's NO, but we can have bonfires then marshmallows and smores for all! We like to respect our guests wishes by not allowing smoking within 10 ft of the houzes.
