About this property
Mid-Century Modern Geodesic Dome cabin, walk to town. Amazing Views
Custom built, Bunkminster Fuller inspired geodesic dome on over three acres. Transport yourself back in time and escape the ordinary!
The dome is a spacious 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath cabin with amazing views, an open kitchen, and large geodesic ceilings with triangular skylights. Amazing custom, artist designed three dimensional fireplace and vintage mid-century modern furnishings to complete the mid-century modern vibe !!
The great room looks up onto the triangular skylights of the geodesic dome ceiling and 100 + year old Grand Piano adds to the vintage decor (cannot hold a tune, not in playing condition).
Primary suite is huge, with a private sitting/living room area, updated bathroom, an a walk in closet
The guest bathroom has been completely remodeled with tile floors and pedastool sink.
Open kitchen is stocked with all you need to cook a family meal. Including double ovens and a new refrigerator with an ice maker and filtered water. The kitchen island seats four, and dining room table accommodates eight guests.
Upstairs are two large, comfortable rooms with a renovated Jack and Jill bathroom, dual vanities, a custom tile shower and a loft/library for relaxing.
The library area has a full size futon sofa for extra guests, movies, books, a fooseball coffee table and a TV.
The downstairs living area is expansive, has a 58” television, a large sectional sofa and chairs by the wood burning fireplace for a game of chess or glass of wine.
Relax or dine outdoors with your favorite somebody, or cocktail on the wraparound deck. Afterwards take a short ¼ mile walk into town to visit the art galleries, restaurants, or listen to a concert by local musicians.
Ida will personalize your visit to ensure you get the Idyllwild experience that you deserve! Guided hike? Private chef or catering services? Massage at the dome? Ask about our mid-week specials and last minute discounts.

About the host
Hosted by Ida
I was lucky enough to grow up in Idyllwild in the house next door to this one! After visiting Idyllwild for several years we moved up the mountain in 1969. A severe snow storm scared my parents away, but not for long! We moved back to Idyllwild in 1976 have called it home ever since.
Why they chose this property
A wonderful couple bought the lot next to my childhood home and Ray built his dream... A Geodesic dome! Ray and Marge were the best neighbors anyone could ever have. Ray had a dream of building a Geodesic dome home and this it! It is my pleasure to be able to share Ray's dream with you!
What makes this property unique
This R. Bunkminster Fuller inspired, Mid-Century Modern Geodesic Dome Cabin is unique. From the eclectic furnishings, to the pink carpet Marge loved, and the acoustics, this is a one of kind experience. The deck had amazing sunset views and wildlife can often be seen using the game trail behind the house.
