The Dome House
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
THE ROAD IN TO THIS HOME IS NOT IDEAL FOR LOWER CLEARANCE VEHICLES.
Discover an architectural wonder on the shores of the Back River at this Boothbay home, a geodesic dome house with a dog-friendly interior, a shared dock nearby, and a beautiful deck that overlooks the water. Come home from a day of hiking, kayaking, or sailing to find a comfortable living space with plenty of natural light. Kick back on the sofa to stream your favorite shows or videos on the flatscreen TV, use the free WiFi to share vacation photos with your loved ones, and leash up your dog for a walk along the surrounding country roads.
Begin each morning with a sunrise paddle from the shared dock, and come home to prepare breakfast in the sun-lit kitchen (with a dishwasher). Bring the newspaper outside to the expansive back deck and spend the evening grilling and dining on local haddock with a view of the Back River. You'll find tranquility, comfort, and gorgeous scenery at this Boothbay vacation home - book your stay on the Midcoast today!
What's nearby:
Take a scenic 14-mile drive up to Wiscasset or along Maine Route 1! The Dome House is perfectly secluded on two acres of dense woodlands, at the end of a gravel road that leads to the banks of the Back River. Launch your kayak from the communal dock a quarter-mile down the road, take a morning stroll through the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens one mile north, and play an afternoon round of golf at the Boothbay Harbor Country Club three miles east. If guests are visiting in the winter, the annual Gardens Aglow event shows the Peninsula in a festive new light.
Things to know:
Free high-speed WiFi
The road in is not ideal for low clearance vehicles
Full kitchen with a dishwasher
Dog-friendly

Dock details: The shared dock is a quarter-mile from the home, located at #27 Tamarack Trail down a steep hill to the cove. This is a tidal cove with an 8 to12 foot difference every 12 hours. Sometimes it is water, sometimes it's mud flats until the water returns. No boats are allowed. Swimming and kayaking are at the guests' own risk only. Kayak rentals are in town Boothbay Harbor a short drive away at Tidal Transit Kayak rentals.
