This Luxurious Subterranean Lair – available as a vacation rental – is known as Beckham Creek Cave Lodge. Described on the cave's website as 'unlike any other place on earth' we're inclined to agree. This is no ordinary cave. Suitable for a budding Bruce Wayne, a villain seeking a short-term luxurious lair or a team of superheroes looking for a place to meet, this cavernous, 8-person, 5,800 sq ft home has already been featured in numerous publications and it's no surprise.
Set in 'a natural cavern, high within a bluff overlooking the valley', this Ozark Mountains hideaway is set on 256 private acres with plenty of opportunity for hikes to waterfalls and bluff overhangs. A 'Hammock Haven' picnic area allows guests to enjoy the privacy of this unique rental in the comfort of a hammock whilst many visitors may simply choose to remain inside the property to savor the truly breathtaking surroundings with a glass of wine.
A Subterranean Lair Like No Other?
Although we scour the globe to find lair-esque properties, we rarely come across properties such as this. A subterranean home certainly isn't unique – there are areas of Spain and Italy for example where cave dwellings are the norm rather than the exception – however the natural majesty of this particular property, the impressive conversion which creates the most of the space and the incredibly private setting amongst dramatic scenery makes this a very special lair, perhaps like no other.
Beckham Creek Cave Lodge sleeps up to 8 guests and is available for vacation rentals via their website Beckham Cave. The nightly rate for 2022 price is $1,600 per night + tax (2-night minimum) with 2023 rates of $2,200 per night (also 2-night minimum). Make sure you book well in advance – it seems that many people want to experience life in a subterranean lair and consequently Beckham Creek Cave is often fully booked.
