A white chapel with a gold steeple in Minnesota.
The chapel sits on two acres of land near Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, surrounded by farmland and rolling hills.
  • In 2021, O'Mara and Adam Dunnigan bought a 120-year-old chapel, saving it from demolition.
  • The church, topped with a 65-foot steeple, was basically a rotting "birdhouse" when they bought it.
  • The couple spent a year turning it into a $250-a-night Airbnb and have just put it up for sale.

O'Mara and Adam Dunnigan were golfing in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, in the summer of 2021 when they noticed a tiny white chapel perched on a two-acre plot between rolling green hills.

"We were like, 'Oh, look at that cute little church," O'Mara, a 39-year-old real-estate agent, told Business Insider.
