Great place ,lovely and quiet and very comfortable.
Great communication with Chad - although we never met him. The place is just as the photos show. The beds and pillows are nice and comfy and the place was very clean. There is a good array of pots and pans for cooking. It is only a 7 min drive to the shops. The place is very peaceful and quiet just what we needed after our trip in from Australia. We would certainly recommend this as a relaxing place to stay.

Cute, fun home for our staycation
Loved that we found something within 40 minutes of our house in the city that felt like we were in a much more secluded spot. The dome home was perfect for a quick break from reality. Comfortable king bed, recently updated large bathroom, and quiet. We wanted to explore some of the ten acres, but the weather had other ideas. I was pleasantly surprised at how close we were to suburban amenities feeling like we were in the woods.

Quiet dome house
The dome house is in a great location! We felt we were about 20 minutes from anything we wanted to do. Quiet property and a unique architectural experience. Great space for a family to spread out. However house could have been cleaner (inside or fridge, kitchen sink, shower, needs an interior paint job). But it did have ample amenities (towels, toilet paper, paper towel, pots/pans). Upstairs bedroom needs a rug so the bunk bed doesn't creak on the LVP floor with every movement.

Lovely time on the country
The dome house was a fun and relaxing place to stay! We enjoyed the nearness of things to do in Stillwater and St. Paul. And it was nice to come “home” and enjoy the quiet and solitude with deer, turkeys and bunnies!

Dome sweet dome, for sure!!!
This was one of the most incredible VRBO listings we've ever stayed at!! We needed a location during the Thanksgiving holiday that was close to the town of Woodbury for family visiting purposes as well as close to amenities in the area. Dome sweet dome provided all of this plus an amazing, cozy and relaxing home away from home. The check in process was completely painless and the furnishings were helpful throughout our stay (laundry detergent, dish soap, etc). Highly recommend and hope to stay again!!!

Wonderful relaxing site
In addition to the novelty of staying in a dime house, this place sits on a beautiful wooded lot in a neighborhood that makes you feel secluded and far from the city. But, it’s fast and easy to get anywhere in the eastern twin cities area. Great place for a retreat!!

Amazing property for dogs to stay!
We love this place! We felt safe and comfortable; it was home away from home. The trails and land were fantastic for letting the dogs explore. We were far enough away that it felt remote, yet so close to everything we needed. Looking forward to coming back!

Exactly what we were looking for!
We traveled to the Twin Cities with our Border Collie and wanted a place that would be enjoyable for her. This was the place. Plenty of room to explore and throw the ball. Secluded and quiet but easy to get anywhere we wanted to go. Everything was clean. The kitchen was nice, we did some baking for a birthday party. We would definitely stay here again.

We came in late on a Thursday night and stayed until Sunday. It was my birthday weekend. We really loved the space and it was just what we needed. Chad communicated via texts and provided all the necessities. We had a lovely time exploring Stillwater and visiting our daughter at UMN. We would totally stay here again. Thank you.😊

Nice setting
The house is in a great location, tucked in the woods and quiet. We had a couple of deer visit in the mornings. The drive get to restaurants was less than 15 min. The house is well equipped for all your needs. We enjoyed warm afternoons on the deck (with snow still on the ground) and soaked up some sun.

COOL House on Nice Private Site
Wanted something special for our son's last spring break of high school. We had a very relaxing time, and our dog enjoyed the property. Luckily she didn't notice the deer wandering by one morning. Really interesting architecture, including the sound quality. You can speak at a normal level and be heard between the main floor and upstairs. Also hiked and visited a nearby dog park. Loved it.
