Forest Shore Dome is a Geodesic Dome within the forests of Nova Scotia’s South Shore, with ocean views and the intention to create a relationship between us and nature. It is a place to leave the ‘busy’ behind. Slowing down, re-grounding, and reconnecting - heart, body and spirit. The forest & ocean, ruled by the moon and the seasons - time does not exist here, as we know it, in our normal day-to-day. You set the pace here. With the intention of having all your senses awakened while falling in sync with the pulse of the nature around you, minimalist luxury is the caveat. You will have the best of everything you need, and nothing of what you do not. We designed the dome to be a hemisphere that offers an opportunity to experience all four elements - earth, wind, fire and water - within the sacred geometry of the its' structure. Loading the wood burning fireplace while the vintage claw foot tub fills with hot water may become your ritual. Whilst the wind moves through the trees, and the waves reach the shore, becomes your meditation. The ocean is only a short walk down a winding forest path, and is often best enjoyed with a hot coffee or loose leaf tea. Every item, from the organic Egyptian cotton and Flax linen bedding on the king size bed, to the organic wild harvested body/bath products and local fresh roasted coffee, has been intentionally chosen for their love of people and planet. Transparency is everything. You may just see some of our resident wildlife - deer, foxes, porcupines, rabbits, chipmunks. If you're a bird lover, you will see or hear all manner of birds, most notably bald eagles that nest at our shore. There are owls in the forest, loons & ducks on the water, gulls & hawks soar our shoreline. Woodpeckers, hummingbirds, blue jays, robins, goldfinches & our lovely crows have been some of our seasonal favorites. The hosts live on the property, though the guests will have complete privacy while at the dome or walking the paths to the ocean. That being said, there’s a very friendly resident white cat, an even friendlier black cat, and a couple brave & curious chickens, that have been known to make surprise visits to the forest. You may even spot our pair of ducks or geese in the meadow. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchenette - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster - Water dispenser ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Music library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Porch/lanai ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 3 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No elevator (single-level property) - Single level property - Smooth flooring in public areas - Stair-free path to entrance - Thin carpet in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Wheelchair-accessible path of travel - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Gym ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - At least 80% organic food - Bicycle parking - Biodegradable coffee stirrers available - Bulk dispensers for toiletries - Composting - Comprehensive recycling policy - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Eco-friendly toiletries - Garden - Humane treatment of captive wild animals - Local artist showcase - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - No plastic water bottles - Reusable coffee/tea filters - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Water dispenser ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90260000/90253000/90252937/a1387a50.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Roseway River Cottages Lower Ohio - Kitchen - Pet friendly - Parking included - Free WiFi 9.6 Exceptional 33 reviews CA $160 CA $200 total includes taxes & fees Dec 28 - Dec 29 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-28&endDate=2025-12-29&selected=90252937&PinnedHotelID=90252937&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/93000000/92590000/92587700/92587632/w1101h1800x14y0-3accd1ef.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Coastal Loft on Private White Sandy Beach Barrington - Washer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Parking available 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-06&endDate=2026-01-07&selected=92587632&PinnedHotelID=92587632&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/38000000/37920000/37914000/37913970/cae1d6c2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tiny Oceanfront Retreat - Hot and Sauna South Shore - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 8.4 Very good 8 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-06&endDate=2026-01-07&selected=37913970&PinnedHotelID=37913970&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/59000000/59000000/58991000/58990965/e1b42a67.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Carter's Beach Suite.
