We booked this place for a quiet Christmas getaway, and could not have been happier. The host prepared the house with lovely Christmas decorations and had everything clean and ready for us. The property was gorgeous, with plenty of outdoor space for us and our dogs to walk around and enjoy the scenery. Very quiet and secluded. The house itself was incredible. Would not hesitate to come back and bring friends.
Beautiful property, very relaxing ad well equipped with most everything we needed for appliances and cookware. There was plenty of space as well as sleeping options. We loved the wild life in the area being tight at the back door.
My wife and I came back (our second stay), over Memorial day weekend and again, we had a wonderful stay. The grounds are beautiful and the location is perfect.
Absolutely amazing cabin with all the amenities one could ask for! Your own private oasis in natures beauty!! A mist for couples or families! Cant wait to return!
The seclusion can't be beat back in the woods quiet very relaxing it was cold so we didn't experience the hiking trails and pond but they looked amazing we will be staying again
We loved our stay at this cool dome cabin! The property was very private, and we loved taking the dogs for a walk on the trails. West Jefferson was a short drive away for shops and dining. Thank you!
Unforgettable is indeed unforgettable! It was quiet and peaceful. If you a looking off a place to unwind, this is it! My life and I enjoyed every minute of our stay here and sours dogs did too!

it was an experiencethe place is perfectexcellent is identicalas it is in the photo
This place is amazing!!! It is so unique and cool! The trails on the property are also very nice. All the seating outside was also very handy, we ate dinner and lunch outside everyday we stayed. The drive is a little steep, but totally doable. If you are on the fence about booking this place this is a little nudge to do it!!! You won’t regret it!
This dome house is enchanting! And it's in a serene natural location perfect for relaxing and nature-bathing. The hosts provided everything we needed including little touches like walking sticks and a makeup mirror. The beds and linens are very comfy and the home is beautifully decorated. I highly recommend this unique home for those who love outdoor adventures and indoor coziness.
We really enjoyed our stay at the quirky dome house Unforgettable. It's a beautiful peaceful location overlooking a pond with 2 fire pits and marked hiking trails right on the property. This was perfect to take the dog for a stroll each morning. Unfortunately, there was an issue with the water so we had to be moved halfway thru the trip. However, the owner and rental company were very responsive and made the move seamless. The 2nd cabin was equally as beautiful and well-kept. Definitely recommend this unique cabin and Carolina Mountain Vacation Rentals.
The property is so beautiful. We walked the trails several times a day. Our dogs had a great vacation. They loved the freedom of the place. We heard the flying squirrels and were lucky enough to have one float past the window. Nearby we enjoyed the Grayson Highlands State Park. We did a short hike and got to see some wild ponies. The home is beautifully decorated and you can tell the owner wants you to have a great experience.

Once again the dome home and surroundings were KILLER! Being an engineer I was digging the dome structure itself. The trails and pond are more icing on the cake. Little or no Verizon signal but yes fast internet. Hoping to return again!

Pictures do not do this place justice. The property is tucked away, quiet and very picturesque. Everything was clean, tidy and ready for our holiday stay. The architecture and setting really made this a special stay with great short hiking trails, hot tub and cozy living arrangements. 10/10 would stay again and received great communication from the property management team.

Very private cabin with stocked fish pond. Caught 15 plus fish and let them go. One was 12 inch Bass. Enjoyed the 2 fire pits, one at the pond, another looking over the mountains. Great place to bring your dog.

Everything is as described.A little creepy at night for a Mom and Daughter trip with the flying squirrels climbing on the roof and the wind blowing. You definitely are alone!Only a short drive to Grayson Highlands State Park to spend the day hiking and looking for wild ponies!We came back and relaxed in the hot tub.
Really fun and beautiful place. The Christmas decor was so thoughtfully placed and you can tell someone put a whole lot of effort making it cozy and beautiful! We didn't need anything. They had extra of everything! We definitely heard the squirrels at night, but we turned on a box fan to drown out the noise and we slept great in the super comfortable beds. Water pressure wasn't the best, and the dishes weren't super clean, but we ran them in the dishwasher and they were fine.Overall a really beautiful and quiet place to stay. Our 3 preteens LOVED it!!! Memories to last a lifetime!
