We loved the Domes! We stayed in the King Suite.The kitchen and bathroom made a major difference and I didn't feel cramped. We made some of our meals to save money and spend it on the sites. We enjoyed the mountain view from our bed. The wood burning stove is also a major bonus as we felt so cozy and warm. There was an unexpected gift awaiting us upon our arrival. And, we met the housekeeper who was so friendly and accommodating. We saw the Northern Lights twice from our hot tub and once through the big window, though it is a little glossy, making it hard to see. The parking is convenient, less than 2 minutes to your door. One word of caution if you are looking for a wilderness escape. . . you're not in the middle of the city, but you are in the suburbs with some light pollution. One of the benefits to the burbs is how close you are to gas stations, grocery stores, and other necessities. There are buses that run on the main route, which isn't far from the domes. I highly recommend that you give the Domes a try. They're a little pricey, but worth it!

We weren’t quite sure about the place when we drove in, but once we were in done, Very cool place for sure. Great directions/instructions for self-checkin. Very Clean place, felt private in the domes. We weren’t sure how exactly to sort the showers though …seems like even when locked, if others had a key, they could get in???

I ordered their most expensive package for my 5 year with my gf and they completely ruined it by giving me the wrong package.. truly disappointing for spending the what I did, on top of the already overpriced stay. Absolutely would not book this again and truly had a disappointing 5 year. They however did correct this after reaching out to multiple people and multiple times. Yet I still never received everything that was stated in the package… hosts have 0 communication between each other and the people on the property won’t help at all. Absolutely atrocious hosting in my opinion. Would never book again..

Hi Ayden, we're sorry that your stay with us was not up to our standards. There was a mistake in your booking so you received the wrong package in your dome. Most of the staff was out of town but we immediately rushed to make sure you would receive the right package as soon as possible and delivered it one hour after your arrival. The staff on the ground are employed in another business and therefore aren't trained to resolve matters with the domes. It was our understanding that you were happy it got resolved and we added free of charge two beverages for you and your girlfriend.

The King Suite was amazing! We had the best nights sleep of the whole trip. Loved the private hot tube, robes and slippers. The champagne and macarons were a lovely touch! Thank you!

The dome itself was amazing! The shower was not clean and I had curly hairs (not mine) all over my feet when I walked out. The faucet in the bathroom fell off in my hand when I went to brush my teeth. The concept is great but each dome should have its own bathroom!

We really loved this concept. We are Icelandic and were taking a parenting free night to relax and sleep in. This was perfect for us, in the city but yet so quiet and beautiful. We would have wanted the deluxe but since it was sold out we went with the standard one, but thats on us! Next time we will def. be going with the deluxe dome! We highly recommend this place!

We had an amazing experience in the dome. We stayed for two nights and we loved the fact the there was a fireplace with wood logs. It was out of the city and made us feel in touch with nature.

Pros: The inside of the dome was very cozy and beautifully decorated. We loved the fireplace inside the tent to keep us warm. Had pretty much everything you needed for a short stay. Nice touches with heaters and heating blankets and little bottle of bubbles for us. Cons: We stayed in the standard tent which compared to the deluxe is actually really sub-par. We had an icy muddy mess to walk through to get to our dome while the other one has an actual walkway. We had no bathroom and had to share the facilities where the RVs do - the men’s room was locked the whole time we were there so boyfriend was forced to use the ladies. The tent doesn’t have a door! Felt very strange to not have a lock capability when you’re inside. The property itself is pretty odd and remote without a lot to see. Didn’t love having only a zipper between us and the outdoors. Also no one on site whatsoever the whole time from our arrival at 3pm. It says 24 hour security which isn’t true. Overall we had a great time but would’ve absolutely done the deluxe if it had been available. Seems odd they didn’t just make them both equally nice - it has a lot of potential!
