"This was our first time glamping, staying in a dome. The property is beautiful, and with a locked gate, there was never any concern about safety. The dome was clean and very spacious for the two of us. There was a slight smell of dampness inside, but we have never stayed in a dome before, so this may be common because of the humidity and recent rainy weather. There is an air conditioner there, but we didn’t need to use it at night, and we were gone during the days. The host gave us clear...

"This is a very unique house in a very quiet and peaceful location. We only visited for 1 night so we did not get to enjoy it as much as we could have. Small miscommunication with our booking but as we went on an evening tour, things were straightened out and all was well by the time we returned. This would be a very fun place for a group of friends as there was a big field to play in, tons of beds, and a big covered communal area to play games. It's definitely a change of pace from the busier,...
