Wacky places to lay your head
A colleague turned me on to Unusual Hotels of the World, www.uhotw.com, where lodgings are a trip.
What’s hot: Oh, the places to stay: The beagle-shaped Dog Bark Park Inn in Cottonwood, Idaho. Hotels are rated in five colored categories from “wow” to “different.” The latter has less outrageous properties, such as the Furnace Creek Inn in Death Valley National Park.
What’s not: Hotels have not been inspected by the site’s founders. This makes me question accuracy: A Furnace Creek Resort photo shows Scotty’s Castle, which you cannot stay in.
