About this property
Remote, huge, mountain dome retreat.
Buried deep in the mountains in Lincoln Nat'l Forest, 'The Domes' is the perfect place to recharge your batteries, and connect with friends / family. We have all the comforts of home, stunning views, amazing night skies, privacy, cool local attractions... plus experienced hosts committed to your wonderful getaway.
Imagine... 27' ceilings, open floor plan, lofts and multiple skylights giving an extremely spacious feel, plus a functional art gallery surrounding you with unique works of art, and nothing to see but trees and mountains out every window... The dining area easily seats 16 and the huge living room offers multiple seating areas. A large deck provides even more places to chill! Where's YOUR favourite place to curl up with a book and a bevvie?
Important to Note:
Due to a technical problem, the location shown on our listing is not exact. We are 30 minutes from High Rolls, and 45 minutes from Cloudcroft or Alamogordo.
also
$200-$225 nightly rate includes 2 people. Add $50/person/night if you bring more than 2. Children under 2 stay free. Max capacity is 16
Now back to the magical domes:
When guests arrive they're always shocked by how big it really is - nearly twice the size of any rental in our area. The space you will occupy is two huge domes joined together totaling 5000 square feet of indoor area for your friends and family. We only take one booking at a time so you get the whole space. We live next door on site. We will greet you on arrival and be nearby if you need anything. Otherwise, you're on your own!
6 bedrooms and 13 beds give plenty of sleeping options.
All the cooking appliances you could need are waiting in the kitchen as well as china, cutlery, pots and pans etc. There is an outdoor BBQ. Propane and utensils are supplied. The huge fully equipped kitchen and open dining area is big enough for large groups to cook and eat together - with art and books surrounding you it's a feast for the eyes while you feast with your loved ones!
It is so amazing to be completely surrounded in nature, 10 miles from any other homes! Get ready for peace and quiet, beauty, and comfort. We encourage environmental and conservation awareness!
Make your reservation now as dates fill quickly. Hope to see you soon!
Guest access
Drive right up to your door.. There's plenty of parking!
And there's tons of Nat'l Forest Trails all around us, plus lots of cool day trips! We're about 30 minutes drive from High Rolls, and from there you can go up to Cloudcroft, or down to Alamogordo. White Sands Nat'l Park, the Petroglyphs, Valley of Fire, Space and History Museums and more are all very do-able day trips from here.
Other things to note:
Cell phone reception is decent with most providers but not all. We have good internet.
We have delicious pure mountain spring water - no need to haul in bottled water!
We do not allow wild and/or heavy drinking parties.
We allow well behaved dogs who are friendly with people and other animals. There is a fee of $50. per dog. Please note, we have three dogs who are very friendly and who protect our property. We also have free range chickens and cats so if your dog is a chaser, it will have to be kept on a leash.
This is a very unique site - it is part of our home as well as a functional art gallery, and is decorated with many beautiful things. Small children must be monitored at all times.
If you are hosting a workshop please let us know.
PLEASE NOTE:
When driving here, once you turn off Hwy 82, the first mile is paved and then it is 11 miles of winding gravel mountain road the rest of the way. This is a Nat'l Forest road and while it is always driveable, the condition of the road can vary with bad weather. (rare but it can happen). We will advise you prior to your arrival if weather looks dubious, and if we feel 4WD is necessary. We suggest driving in daylight because the views are so stunning you will definitely want to take photos!!

About the host
Hosted by Heather Miller

We treasure the vast pristine nature around us and get a lot of joy out of introducing guests to the mountain wilderness of NM. We've hosted people from all over the world and it never ceases to amaze us what an incredible opportunity that is! Basically, we are easy going 'love life' kind of people with the great luck to live in paradise, and to have the ability to share it!
Why they chose this property
The Domes were originally built as a workshop and retreat centre. We inherited it and decided to share this bit of paradise with the world.And what great fortune to live in New Mexico 'cause it is awesome! It's history, landscape, Nat'l Parks, culture, art... all unique, fascinating and beautiful. There is SO much to see here - Whitesands, Carlsbad Caverns, Petroglyphs, VLA, Valle del Fuego... It's a rich multicultural land!
'The Domes is located in the Sacramento Mountains, and an easy day trip for many attractions. Close enough to civilization to interact, yet our rare property is completely surrounded by Lincoln Nat'l Forest. There's literally no one but us for miles!!
Guests tell us staying here has rejuvenated them clear to their soul! Here they find the time and space and tranquility to deeply connect with their friends and family... and themselves. We are right next door if you need us, and you won't see us if you don't! Whether you love meeting new people and sharing a slice of life, or you want to be completely alone - this is the place. The Domes is an amazing gift and we love seeing the 'Wow! on peoples faces when they first enter the enormous living room. Surrounded by art and books and interesting things, all our guests tell us it is way bigger than they thought, and they can amuse themselves for hours looking at the interior. The photos really don't capture the sheer size of the domes or its surroundings. How do you truly convey 1000's of acres of mountains and trees, and views that span over 80 miles in a few photos?
For the record, while we have all the comforts of home, we are all about environmentally conscious living. Our water is piped down the mountain from a natural spring (and it is delicious!). We use a septic system. We heat in winter with wood stoves and pellet stoves. We appreciate awareness of the environment during your stay.
