Peaceful
Our only complaint was that there were no trout in the water, in fact no fish at all. Otherwise it was so peaceful and very relaxing

So great to disconnect!
What a great spot to disconnect from the real world for a few days and to introduce our kids to the idea of camping! We will definitely be back!

Deep gap dome, almost awesome
My girlfriend and I booked this trip to get away from city life and enjoy the peace, quiet and privacy of a mountain getaway. The location and setting were nice, although the listing noted we would have the entirety of the rental property to ourselves. Upon arrival we were greeted by a family of four and multiple campsites within the property. Overall we enjoyed our stay but the listing was dated and some minor details were errant. The place was clean and tidy, and the wood stove was a live saver! Still would revisit knowing now what I didn’t previously. I would recommend going when there is plenty of foliage given our dome window (which overlooks a really cool stream) was facing directly towards the road about 60 yards away. 7/10 overall

We have 3 domes on our acreage, sorry for the confusion. Happy to hear it was clean and you enjoyed your stay. You can use the curtains for privacy and there is a road across the creek and above you, but once there are any leaves on the trees you will never know it was there. Winter camping is definitely a different experience!

For clarity, not only do we not have WiFi you will undoubtedly not have cell service. That is the point of visiting "Glamping Unplugged!" So happy you had a great getaway!

Unplugged for sure
I did enjoy my stay, but when reading the listing on here it stated 'glamping'. I am a travel agency owner by trade, this is not glamping. If there was running water and electricity, ok.. yes, but no this is not. I did appreciate the No data or wifi, my business has so much social media is was nice to pushed outside of my comfort zone and not have that connection. The river is clean and beautiful, the dome tent was wonderful, the bed was 10/10 absolutely comfortable and loving the sheets!!!! Everything including location was fantastic. Town was a short drive and easy to get to. If it had running water, I would be back in a heartbeat. But it doesn't mean I am not going to mention this place to my clients to enjoy.

I would recommend reading the description for what you are renting so that you are not confused when you arrive to an "unplugged" environment (which is why we tell you to bring water?)? We are called "Glamping Unplugged" for a reason. So happy your stay was a 10 out of 10, shame you dinged us for not having running water, because we do not have running water, we do not have plumbing, we do not have electrical outlets. This is our version of primitive glamping. As a travel agent, I would recommend asking questions rather than assuming your version of glamping us everyone's version of glamping? But again, so happy you loved your experience!

Hidden Gem!
This was an awesome experience! The host was very kind and quickly responded to our messages. There are three domes, but it felt very private. It was a much needed getaway and it did not disappoint! We’ll definitely be back!

Reconnecting
My husband and I had the best time celebrating our anniversary here! We always look for unusual places to stay. The property was beautiful especially with the leaves changing! There are some great swimming holes along their portion of river and we can’t wait to come back in the summer to swim. The property is close to the Blue Ridge Parkway and tons of hiking trails. The property has that far away feel but you are not far from Boone or Blowing rock. It was relaxing to sit by the fire, hear the river, and actually talk to my husband without our phones going off every 5 minutes. The dome itself has so many thoughtful touches. The bed is sooo comfortable. We loved staying here!

Peaceful Getaway
Unique experience with peaceful setting. Owners are amazing to work with and are very responsive to communicate. Camping without having to carry everything or set it up. Beautiful creek scenery.

Anniversary getaway
My wife and I spent our anniversary here and it surpassed any and all expectations. The dome is immaculately clean, with a stunning view of the stream below. The property in which the dome is nestled in nothing short of breathtaking. We enjoyed walks along the trail parallel to the water, playing board games by the fire pit, and relaxing inside the comfy bed. On top of it all the property owners were kind and gracious. If you are looking for a serene and private get away look no further. My wife and I our avid travelers and this was one of our most memorable experiences, we will most certainly be back.

Fun getaway
This was labeled as "the best holiday ever" by our kids. It was a perfect hideaway to get away from the busyness of the world. During the day you could entertain yourself with fishing, exploring and hiking and end the evening with seeing almost every star in the sky by the fire pit. We will definitely be back to unplug soon.
