I just enjoyed a 3 night stay at the dome. I really can’t say enough good things about this place! It’s secluded but not too far away from some restaurants/stores. There are some surrounding neighbors but I still had plenty of privacy. The dome was spacious & very clean. The projector was really neat too & easy to set up. The bed was very comfortable. I especially enjoyed the firepit & sitting beside the creek. I highly recommend staying here!

Hiking Paradise

My husband and I came to hike and loved our stay at Wanderlust as our basecamp to relax, unwind, and regroup for the next day of exploring.

A Really Nice Stay

Whispering Waters is exactly what I hoped it would be. It's the perfect combination of camping and homey comfort and more than I expected. I would stay here over a hotel each and every time I travel if it were possible. The communication and attentiveness to a few small issues I had was so appreciated! I had a relaxing and stress-free 3 night stay. I will say, definitely follow the directions given when you head up- maps will try to take you a different route and even though some of the streets are the same, the directions given make the trip from the interstate much easier.

FABULOUS!!!

This was the cutest place to get away for spring break. Everything needed was provided, even when it got cooler at night the heaters were so helpful. The bathroom was great and the shower was so spacious. Loved that this place was secluded but not far from Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge. Will definitely be returning! Also the directions to find the place are so helpful so definitely follow them!

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.

Wonderful, will definitely be back!

Clean, peaceful and relaxing! You can hear the river from the inside of the dome. Everything was clean and we had all that we needed. My only complaint would be that some of the clear part on the dome was cloudy so you couldn’t see through all of it, however most of it was fine and you could see and hear the river no problem. We will absolutely be back and have told everyone we know to book a stay here!

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.

Wonderful Stay!

Very neat place to stay. Our first glamping experience. Loved being right beside the mountain stream (and the fire pit added an extra favorite for us). You could hear it and the night insects so well in the dome. Area was perfect for getting to hikes and restaurants.
