🏕 The Space

Nestled in a tranquil natural setting, your stay begins with private on-site parking 🚗, followed by a short walk along a nature path to the dome. Just three steps lead you inside, where comfort and charm immediately welcome you.

🛋️ Indoor Living

The main living area features a comfortable couch, TV 📺, and Wi-Fi 📡, along with a dedicated workspace 🧑‍💻 for light remote work. You’ll also have an in-unit washer and dryer 🧺, a full bathroom with a walk-in shower 🚿, and brand-new AC and heat ❄️🔥 to keep you comfortable year-round.
