Dome 1@ Smoky Mountains Glamping Dome #1 Read Details
***Multiple Domes Available *** Stay on a 140 acre farm in the only camping dome shelter location in the Smoky Mountains and get back to nature. Look out the windows at the forest, mountaintop and sky. Relax on the little porch, savor eating meals on the picnic table and enjoy the warm propane fire pit. Lay down in the comfy queen sized bed and drift off to sleep while watching the beauty of the night sky! The space Come visit this unique camping dome in the Smoky Mountains! See the night sky from your bed and enjoy being close to nature. This is a Glamping experience. Glamping is luxurious camping with more modern amenities like power, finished floors, beautiful views, and comfortable furnishings, but it is still camping. The domes are not insulated so it can get hot during the day in the summer and cold at night in the winter. There is an A/C and a heater in the unit, as well as a heated blanket, but similar to camping, expect the weather to be a factor. Explore Tennessee by day and relax in your dome at night.

Inside the barn, we have indoor showers and bathrooms. There is also a mini fridge, microwave, and coffee maker available for all guests to use.

Nice glamping spot
The dome was very cute and nice. The bed was comfortable. I sat on the porch and just enjoyed the sounds of the creek across the road and the tree frogs. It was incredibly peaceful. The bathrooms were very clean. Unfortunately other guests came in around 11 pm and were pretty noisy, so i didn’t get much rest. But thats part of the camping experience. Would stay again.

Incredible stay! Everything was just as described in photos and such a fun “glamping” trip with my best friend. Definitely want to get a bigger group and book the whole property for a night! I highly recommend.

12/10 Amazing!
My boyfriend and I booked a dome for the weekend and we both agree that we will 100% be back. Such a unique and cute little place. Hosts were very accommodating and it seemed to be so much more of a personalized experience than just staying in a hotel. Cannot recommend this property enough!!

Smoky Mountain Hidden Gem
Amazing “igloo / dome” glamping experience about 30 min north of Gatlinburg. Hosts were super friendly and responsive and ensured we had everything we needed upon arrival. Complimentary s'mores and water bottles were a plus! Would love to come back and visit in the future. Cats that live on the property were super friendly and came by to say hi a few times. Absolutely no complaints!

Peaceful getaway!
We just stayed the one night, but it was very peaceful. Very quaint lil globe. Had a little difficulty because the AC and fan wasnt working but once husband found the power strip under the bed was shut off, we were good to go. Only suggestions, mainly because I'm very OCD, might want to replace bulbs in string lights hanging inside. There were about 10 bulbs out. I would definitely suggest this getaway to anyone.

It was really good stay. The only would be better is to inform about the insect and spoiders. Otherwise it was a perfect stay. And they helped me a lot in surprising my boyfriend as well. Thank you all!

Perfect glamping experience
This was the best way to experience the Smokies!! We didn’t want to bring all of our camping gear but still wanted to be in nature…this was the best compromise, with the MOST comfortable bed, cutest dome and lots of warm comforts like heated blanket, hot shower, and Space heaters! The host was SO responsive and so helpful! Came immediately if we needed anything and said he slept with his phone by his ears to make sure he didn’t miss us! So kind!

Perfection
Came to Tennessee to photograph a wedding, and didn’t want to stay in Gatlinburg. This place was beyond perfect! It was in a beautiful location, quiet, clean, and the other guests were super friendly. Was surprised to see towels & robes provided, which I thought was a lovely touch. The showers and bathrooms were clean, and there was plenty of coffee to choose from in the morning. If I’m ever in need of a place there again, without question, I’ll be back.
