OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
Sierra Dome Escape is located in a natural desert environment, home to cacti and thorny vegetation. Guests are advised to exercise caution, as we are not responsible for any tire damage or injuries resulting from contact with natural desert flora.

The property is entirely powered by the sun, and our solar panels can only support what is already on site, plus your phone chargers and other low consuming devices. Keep in mind that on a stormy day, there will be less power available. In case of really bad weather (rare), there could be no power at all and therefore all amenities requiring electricity won’t work.

We are not responsible for weather, car trouble, car towing, change of heart, pandemics, natural disasters, or any other unforeseen event making guests wish to cancel. Thank you for understanding.

The remote location was wonderful! I definitely recommend 4 wheel drive for the dirt roads that get you to the location. It's about a 25 minute drive to the main drag at Terlingua and about 45 minutes to get to the entrance of the park. The amenities worked out really well and our host was very quick to help if we needed anything! I would definitely stay here again

This place is great. It has everything you can think you would need (or forget).Just very short drive in to town and big Ben. Amazing view of the starts just right outside your dome. I would definitely recommend this place and will be staying again in the future.

Great stay and an awesome place

The location is a little drive but not far from the Big Bend park. The place had everything we needed. We ended up grilling every evening. The sunsets and sunrises were perfect at our location. (Blue Door). We both agreed that we would stay here again.
