Unique STR ideas/feedback

I am looking for some feedback from others on their success/feedback on unique STR properties. I currently operate a few STRs so have a good understanding of that aspect although they're all located in touristy locations. I am looking to expand my rentals & looking at the idea of doing something unique in a more remote location.

What have you found with Tiny Homes, Tree House, Secluded Cabins, etc.? Has it been tough to make it work? Would you do it again? Do people really travel to these types of secluded locations for "weekend getaways"?

Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

In my market (Tampa metro) the more unique, the better.  We just started managing 4 tiny homes on 1 lot with a shared pool and they are booking great at a rate commensurate with larger homes.
