Why they chose this property
My "neighborhood" is the Forest! I share this space with deer, coyotes, bobcat, birds, frogs and so many other critters! I love being able to breath in the fresh air and watch the seasons change. The Forest provides the perfect place to slow down and look at life through kids eyes again! Search for tiny mushrooms and wildflowers, throw rocks in the creek, turn up rocks and see what lives underneath and turn the clouds into any shape or being imaginable!
What makes this property unique
If you would like to go down a little rabbit hole, search Geodesic domes and Sacred Geometry and its effect on the mind!
If that's a little too much, the simple fact is that we are so use to square and rectangular shapes in this world, that just being in a different shape seems to awaken the mind and bring a sense of awe and delight to your stay! Paired with serene nature views and eclectic design makes Rooted Domes a truly unique experience!
