It’s really a fun place to stay at. We had a problem with the door… but it got worked out. We got one with a private bathroom and well worth it. Highly recommend.

Loved this experience! So glad the weather cooperated and we saw northern lights while laying in the bed. The first night we had a rainstorm and it was so cool to listen to in the igloo. Everything was clean. Heating was adequate. Floors were heated and bed also! I would definitely stay here again!

Nice Glamping experience with some caveats

Stayed in the summer and very impressed when I arrived at the unique space and bathrooms. There was lots of closet space and a fridge! It was actually hot in August (66-68 degrees, tank top weather). When I pulled back the curtains, huge flies everywhere. Killed at least 6 and still some. Also, my glasses changed to dark the whole time, so lots of UV exposure in there (can close curtains, but top open). Warming blankets, so toes warm at night when cold. Overall an interesting experience save for the two negatives above.

Wonderful and unique place to stay. Make sure to get the igloo with the bathroom. We were surprised how clear the dome was to see the stars and we were so lucky to see an incredible aurora from the comfort of our bed.

Beautiful landscape

The view was incredible with wild horses running during sunset. Weather didn’t cooperate for northern lights viewing. The booking wasn’t clear on the bathroom situation, so we had booked the separate bath house mistakenly. Would recommend booking the built in bathroom as there is also some space to put luggage.

Very unique, my wife doesn’t like the dark, but this was a very cozy experience. She loved this .Didn’t get to see the aurora. (Cloudy) but I glad I still did it. Had the one without the bathroom, and it was a well lit path to walk on and graveled, showers and bathrooms seamed to be always available and clean

Wonderful

We had a great stay at the Igloo. Very comfortable, clean and warm. Hot water felt wonderful. While tiny - it was everything we expected. Had we not had rain and clouds it might have been a great opportunity to see the Northern Lights

There was hair in the bed and there was as a small hole in the bathroom which made spiders to enter the room. We had to deal with them.

This spot is AMAZING! The dome was easy to book and find when we arrived. Communication was great & the check-in was seamless. Surprisingly private too. We booked the dome with the attached bathroom. We were hoping to see some of the Northern Lights, but a combo of cloud cover, a full moon and low aurora activity nixed that - regardless still an amazing experience .
