We use necessary disinfection, essential oils, mattress and pillow covers against bedbugs. No artificial fragrances.



Built in 2024 with sustainable methods, sited for maximum efficiency, the Dome is part of our ongoing ecological restoration project. We are close by, and love the rich history and biodiversity here. Renting directly with locals, rather than platforms, keeps cash in the community.



Ask about retreat pricing, we can recommend local caterers, and provide yoga mats, blocks, and foam rollers. Quiet retreats only, please. No drum circles, please! Acoustic music inside, is fine.



No smoking or vaping on this property! Fire sprinklers in the Dome triggered by smoking or vaping can cause catastrophic damage. Evidence of vaping or smoking inside will result in retention of security deposit plus an additional cleaning fee of $300, even if sprinklers are not triggered. If you must vape or smoke, use your own vehicle, or leave the property. Between fire danger, viruses in tobacco, cigarette litter and lingering flavored vape stink, there are no benefits to smoking or vaping on the property. We will ask you to stop and if you refuse, you will need to leave. No refunds for breaking the rules. Violation may result in $300 penalty fee.



A Level 2 Destination Charger for your EV is free for guests.



While we ask guests to bring no pets, if you have a medical service animal, please send service animal certs and we'll work with you.
