The Dome sits on top of a hillside. The road to the dome is gravel and steep at one spot. 4x4 is recommended. If you don't have a 4x4 or All Wheel Drive and don't have experience driving mountain roads, we have a 4x4 Polaris RZR UTV that guests can use with the signing of an additional waiver. The road is drivable by non-4x4 vehicles, but care must be taken. If you're unsure about this, please reach out to us.



The Dome is on a 6-acre property that borders the national forest. While the Dome is private, we are working on the property and share the parking area with Dome 2, which is in the final phases of completion. Please be respectful of nature and other guests, and do not to play loud music or be too loud. Rest assured, we live on the lower part of the property and are available to help if any issues arise.
