Question: In what Texas town can you spend the night in a home shaped like a cowboy hat?

Answer: Huntsville. Home builder and artist Dan Phillips erected a 35-foot house shaped like cowboy boot in 2016, and he added a house shaped like a cowboy hat shortly thereafter. He explained he was inspired by the nursery rhyme about the “old woman who lived in a shoe.” Phillips built around two dozen homes in the region with mostly salvaged or recycled materials. The cowboy hat home is available for rent on Airbnb and Vrbo.
