Serene Dome with Riverside Fire

Had a fantastic girls’ getaway for a night in early May. The dome was immaculate and just as advertised, with lots of thoughtful details like instant coffee and an extra fold-up table. Beds were comfortable and the linens were crisp and clean. The outhouse was clean, spiderweb-free and stocked with hand sanitizer, which we appreciated. The view of the creek was stunning with abundant deer to watch. The stove was easy to operate with clear instructions provided and it kept us cozy in freezing weather. Functional, cozy and fun! Would 10/10 recommend.

Amazing experience!

Such a unique experience! Host was great to answer right away. I recommend going earlier to start the wood stove and then head out into town for a few hours. When you return the dome should be all warmed up!

Such a unique experience!

This was my second time staying at the domes and I just love it. It’s so beautiful and peaceful along the river. It has everything you need to relax.

I just love it!

We had an amazing time, the Dome is magical and sits on an incredible piece of land. The beds are super comfortable and despite it snowing and being -15....we were warm and toasty inside.Beautiful, unique and tranquil place.
