My husband and I stayed here to celebrate our anniversary and we absolutely loved it! Everything was just as advertised, very private, clean, and nicely decorated. Great location for both downtown Logan and the Hocking Hills area. The hosts were prompt in their communication with us and even added personalized touches for our anniversary trip.

Quiet and Quaint

The dome was perfect for me and my wife, very cozy and secluded enough where we felt we had plenty of privacy. Location was good where within 20 minutes we had access to same amenities and attractions we would back at home along with hiking at Hocking Hills State Park. Property manager was easy to work with and very responsive and did an excellent job of setting up for our Anniversary. Would definitely stay there again.

Unique Glamping Experience

What a fun experience! if you love the outdoors but desire modern conveniences, consider booking this geo-dome! This igloo shaped structure is nestled in the woods. It has a beautiful bathroom and kitchen and a comfortable queen sized bed. It has heat/AC depending on the time of year. Also included in your stay is access to a pole barn with darts, pool, shuffleboard table and lawn games. This is a perfect little getaway approximately 30-40 minutes from the trails of Hocking Hills. Would stay again!

Overall, the property was great and the community game room was a fun bonus. A few issues with the unit’s exterior—very little sun hits the back deck, which led to heavy mildew and algae. The deck and hot tub area were extremely slippery when wet, creating a safety concern. The mildew also blocked our view from inside, which was a main reason I chose this unit. I’d recommend management power wash the exterior a few times a year to maintain the experience and protect their investment.

Weekend getaway/birthday celebration

Absolutely amazing place to stay!!! My husband and I went for his 38th birthday. The bed was comfortable, and everything was super clean! The game house was super fun for extra activities. The host even left a birthday card in the welcome basket and they gave us a list of restaurants and things to do. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an amazing peaceful retreat!

Dome

Property was very quiet, private and serene. Dome had everything you could think of and more, every detail was well thought out. The dome was very clean, bed was comfortable, and communication was good. Was 12 minutes away from shops and 15-30 mins from most trailheads. Thanks for sharing your property!

Quick getaway

My husband and I went to HH for a quick getaway and we stayed in the Penguin Geodome. It did not disappoint! It was very quaint and charming and in a perfect location. We were within a short distance to Logan and the antique malls and places to eat. The hot tub was very welcoming after a day of hiking. The game room in the main barn was a very nice addition! Would definately recommend!

Penguin geodesic dome

We spent 2 nights and they were magical! Both nights were chilly which made sitting in the hot tub a pleasure. We had a sky full of stars every night and very little light pollution. Lying in bed we could see outside and see stars and trees. We were close to hiking at Old Man’s Cave, great shopping and eating/wineries. I can’t wait to come back!!

Unique Stay in Hocking Hills!

If you are looking for a fun, unique experience in Hocking Hills, this is it! Close to all the fun things to do in the area, like hiking, putt-putt, and restaurants. It was the perfect get-away for my husband and I. We had one small issue with the deck lights, but the property manager responded quickly and helped to resolve the issue. The bed is so comfortable, we actually ordered the same one for our home! Would recommend 10000%!

Great place!

What a place! I was quite skeptical about the igloo, but it’s super cool. About 10-12 minutes to Hocking Hills. Minutes to the downtown. Every little thing is thought through and taken care of. It’s really an amazing place. There’s even a cool game room on site. Just amazing!
