The house is AMAZING!!! So interesting and we discovered things about it everyday. Cozy, warm, so well made. Beds were so comfortable. Very clean and comfortable. Has everything you can need. They thought of everything. Little “welcome” touches. By far, the best airb&b we’ve ever stayed in!

unique home located centrally for hitting both Denver and the Mountains

The Turtle Shell Dome is a unique place, which helps make the stay more memorable. It was about halfway between Denver and Rocky Mountain National Park, both of which we visited while staying at the Dome. The main bedroom and bathroom in the upstairs loft area are very open, and there is no sound isolation from the main living area if that's an issue for you, but otherwise it is a great family vacation spot.

Amazing

The turtle dome home was amazing. The kids (7-10) counted 32 turtles - we added one! Excellently supplied kitchen and appliances. We will be back when it is a bit warmer. We saw the biggest snake I've ever seen, birds, rabbits, and a bald eagle.

This place was AMAZING!! Defiantly top notch. This was such a unique place to stay. They left little goodies for us, which was so sweet. Owners were very responsive when I had questions. The kids thought the place was SUPER cool. They had everything we needed. I'm very appreciative to the have been able to stay there.

Get away, but not too far

We loved this house! It was very clean and we loved the turtle decor. The home was stocked with everything we needed from cooking to bug bites. The home is located on a dirt road surrounded my farms so you feel like your away from it all but just about 10 minutes away from shopping or walking in a park. We will definitely be returning here.
