Geodesic Dome +8 private acre Streamlined-Woodland Homestead + Camping Retreat
One-of-a-kind Geodesic Dome and Serene Private Retreat Space! - Organic Tea & Spice Gardens - Art Gallery - Massage Room - Infrared Sauna - Chamber Concert Venue - Sacred Space for Precious Interpersonal Gatherings -
Reasons You'll Fall in Love With the Dome: --Awesome Acoustics: this place is IDEAL for Sound-bath healing Retreats, Yoga & Breathwork Workshops, Prayer groups, Family/Friend Reunions, etc. The geodesic interior angles of the ceiling create a multidimensional sound experience you have to witness to fully appreciate!
--Original Art & Handmade Pottery by local artists adds an extra artsy flair our fully-outfitted kitchen and living spaces! All of the Art and Sculptures on display are also For Sale: as this Dome doubles as an Art Gallery with rotating exhibits+artist openings!
--Perfect for Private Reunions and Camp-outs, this property can park up to 14 vehicles and comfortably sleep more than 12 people inside, in addition to more camp sites available outside in the field.
--Not 1 but 2 fire pits! One just off the HUGE deck perfect for cooking over, and a bigger one nestled in the Woodland edge, perfect for larger prayer/song circles and spooky campfire stories alike!
--Taking a Hot Shower OUTSIDE is a natural Luxury EVERYONE should experience. Built out of entirely reclaimed-lumber, this sexy unique amenity provides total privacy for total relaxation; yet it's just around the corner from the downstairs porch, so you can easily shuffle back inside to your bedroom, or back to a tent.
IF YOU LOVE ORGANIC+HOLISTIC LIVING, you'll love It here! --All-natural shampoos and soaps, handmade hand-soaps & soaking salts & bath bombs and homegrown teas (incidentals are a la carte, not included in your base rental price). --Low-EMF: The Dome Is actually a faraday cage (the original builder was a ham-radio fanatic) and there Is currently NO WiFi In the home! --Happy hens on site providing delicious free-range eggs (but chickens will remain in their coop/run for the duration of your stay, and tended by the neighbor).
Our family has been hosting vacation+family rentals our whole lives, and this little passion project is our newest Ecologically-Loving endeavor! Surrounded by gardens and fruit trees+vines, permaculture master-designed to enrich biodiversity and ecological life.
We proudly host Red-Shouldered Hawks and many songbirds (easily appreciated when Inside the Dome, as the Main-floor is upstairs!) as well as an abundance of Dragonflies, Fireflies, Tree-Frogs + Bull frogs + Salamanders... the wildlife is rich here and children of all ages love it!
Therefore this Wildlife-Sanctuary is also an all-natural organic/biodynamic landscape and thus we do NOT use toxin pesticides of any kind. Surrounded by stream-front forest and organic gardens, it's normal to see Spiders + roaches around (even occasionally Inside the Dome). So if you are arachnophobic, this location may not be ideal for you.
