UP's Fredricksen listed his quaint house that can fit four guests all while being suspended in mid-air.
'I don't always like visitors, but I guess it's pretty nice to have them now that it's just me and Dug,' Fredricksen said. 'So, come stay in my cozy home I made with my dear Ellie.'
He said that each guest will start out as 'Junior Wilderness Explorers,' like Russell from the 2009 movie.
As the stay goes on, Fredricksen said each guest will get to go on 'mini adventures' and collect badges along the way.
He has also asked his chosen guests to tidy up around the home, including chores such as 'fetching mail' and 'minding the house.'
His house also features a fun activity that allows guests to create their very own Adventure Book, straight from the movie.
Fredricksen added that chosen guests can also enjoy picnics on the lawn, watch the 'night sky' like Ellie loved to do and enjoy his favorite breakfast - bran flakes.
According to the listing, Airbnb purchased Carl and Ellie's home to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of the movie. Requests to book the home close on May 13.
'Ellie was the best adventurer, so you’ve got big shoes to fill,' Fredricksen said.
The chance to live in the house left people split on social media, with some loving the idea and others fearing for their safety.
'Airbnb is the next Disney,' a commenter said online.
'You ain't paying me to stay in this place,' another wrote.
