Mountain Sanctuary Dome Rustic Solitude 5BR

Where simplicity meets solitude. Find connection in this scenic mountainous retreat. Enmeshed in the natural landscape, this space is only accessible via unpaved roads and a steep 1200’ driveway. This is not a problem for most people in the summer months, however it is imperative you know where you are going in order to access whether this space is what you are looking for.
Even the journey here is part of the adventure.
*4WD/AWD & snow tires are essential during winter & early spring due to the possibility of snow or mud*

This property requires a lot of upkeep. The steward will likely be onsite during your stay, however the whole house will be exclusively reserved for the duration of your stay.

This home was handmade by artists in 1984, nestled between forest, meadow, stream, and sky. Whether it's the owls or the stars singing you to sleep, you will leave feeling rejuvenated. With swimming holes nearby, and woods to be explored just outside the front door, this secluded site is perfect for a private getaway or a group gathering.

This unique structure is a composition of iron, and cement called ferrocement construction. The molding of reinforcing iron, and following layers of cement give the structure its dome shape. This space was originally built off grid, but as of last year is electrified. Enjoy modern amenities in the middle of the woods including fridge, washer/dryer, hot/cold running water, Wifi. The driveway is roughly 1200' and can be inaccessible without the correct equipment. You will need snow tires during the winter months, and 4WD/AWD during mud season March/April.

This space will rejuvenate & inspire.
