Whispering Waters: Dome Getaway

Wake to the sounds of a babbling brook & bird song through the skylight; lounge outdoors under hemlock & holly trees with a cup of coffee. At night enjoy the canopy of stars & planets without light pollution. Welcome to Waters Edge - a cozy geodesic dome @ Wanderlust Woods. So remote you’d never guess that you're only 5 mi from trails in the National Park or the best rafting & zip lining in the Smokies & 25 min to Gatlinburg. Ideal for a mountain retreat without the traditional log cabin feel.

The open floor plan consists of colorful boho energy with queen bed & twin roll-away, table for 3, comfy chairs in the main space, a full size bathroom with shower & flush toilet, kitchenette with refrigerator, sink, air fryer/toaster oven, & microwave. Additionally, you'll enjoy a wall-sized vista window that overlooks the sun-dappled creek and forest. Outside take a seat in one of the hammock chairs, around the fire pit, or at the table with umbrella while you wait for dinner to finish on the gas grill and enjoy the view--you may see a family of bears or flock of wild turkeys!

This listing is brand new, but check out our 26 perfect 5-star reviews at our other glamping spots @ Wanderlust Woods (found on the other platform page)

You’re welcome to explore our 10 acres of property including 900 ft of creek frontage, a hiking trail to the ridge, and mountain views. We ask that you do not enter any other of our glamping spots. No one else has access to your dome.

We provide coffee, creamer, sugar, snacks, plus all the bedding, towels, soap, TP, etc that you’ll need for your stay.

The Cosby entrance to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park is 3 mi in one direction, rafting on the Pigeon River is 3 mi in another direction, and we can show you some beautiful fishing spots for bass & trout less than 3 miles from our place.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay in the dome. As she said, it was the coolest place we have ever been. Everything as advertised and more. Will be staying here again on future trips to the Smokies.

All is well if you enjoy sleeping in woods. Only 2 complaint was not a mountain view and path to entrance is muddy and might be little difficult if you have 2 wheel drive

Amazing Stay

I rented this dome for my 6th year anniversary with my partner and it was amazing. I always wanted to stay in a dome but it super expensive. We got this last minute because it was a great price. The hosts are really welcoming provided you with almost everything you might need! There is a stove provided! Their well water they provide was amazing as well! The drive to the woods was a bit rough but my Nissan versa made it! I loved this amazing experience. The bed was comfortable. Overall everything was cute and comfy! It was raining when we left and there was a leak somewhere on the roof that dropping in close to the bed and the kitchen but other than that amazing.
