About this property
Rustic Geo Dome w/ Epic Mountain Views
At this one-of-a-kind geodesic dome tucked deep in the hills of Weaverville, guests wake to mountain views and the sounds of birdsong. There's no lock, no road noise, and no cell service on some networks—but plenty of peace. Spend your days outside and your nights by the wood stove, then wake up to morning mist and an outdoor shower. It’s a wild, unplugged stay just 20 minutes from Asheville for adventure and nature lovers alike.
