If you’ve got $120,000 burning a hole in your pocket and a deep love for basketball history, Michael Jordan’s former mega-mansion might be your next vacation spot.

Yes, that house. The one with the giant number 23 on the front gate. After sitting on the market for over a decade, His Airness’ custom-built estate in Highland Park, Illinois, is finally open to the public, kind of. It’s now listed on Airbnb under the ultra-luxury “Luxe” category, and it comes with a nightly price tag that will make your bank account sweat harder than a Game 7.

Jordan originally built the nine-bedroom, 19-bathroom palace during his Bulls heyday. He threw everything into it, an indoor basketball court, outdoor putting green, cigar room, commercial gym, wine cellar, aquarium, and a theater. There’s even a private pond stocked with bass and bluegill for fishing. It’s the kind of place that doesn’t just flex wealth, it does wind sprints with it.

Michael Jordan’s $29 Million Dream

Jordan tried to offload the mansion back in 2012 with a $29 million asking price. But the market didn’t bite. Not even close. It sat unsold for 12 years as the price dropped again and again. Finally, in 2024, real estate investor John Cooper bought it for $9.5 million, according to NBC News.

Cooper initially had other ideas. He announced plans to convert Jordan’s iconic property into a timeshare resort called Champion’s Point, offering weeklong stays for $1 million each. That pitch didn’t quite land either.

Now, Cooper’s playing a different game. He’s tossing the keys to short-term renters on Airbnb, hoping the Luxe listing will lure big spenders. The current pricing for Labor Day weekend is a stunning $120,920 for a seven-night minimum stay. If you fill all 14 beds, that’s still over $1,200 a night per person.

The Airbnb listing calls it a “private oasis.” Fair enough. Between the zero-entry infinity pool, full-size court, and endless entertainment options, it’s less a house and more of a five-star retreat with Jordan’s fingerprints all over it.

Still, that price point doesn’t scream “accessible.” It’s for those who want bragging rights, not just a vacation. Jordan may not live there anymore, but his legacy still echoes through every hallway, and now, through every luxury booking.
