The most relaxing, peaceful, and recharging trip we have been on!

We stayed in the Cocoon and it was more than we could have expected. There was no detail they didnt of. It was spotless and welcoming. So cozy and peaceful! We will 100% be back. We have been having about it to all our friends to go stay! The bathroom was also amazing and so clean! We felt right at home and were able to disconnect from the world and relax.

It was amazing to unplug!

I work in property management and appreciated every tiny detail. Everything was so clean. We had a dog with us and there was a lot after and good bowl ready when we arrived. There was also a pet bed out. Everything you need was there. I loved the stamp on the toilet paper! Every detail was thought of! There were “how to” inspections on things, extra blankets, and activities! The communication and accommodations were great! I can’t say enough positive things! I look forward to another stay!

The most relaxing and tranquil place I have ever visited in my life.

I have never felt more relaxed and willing to just let the outside world go. From watching the deer in the morning to the stars at night it was perfect. My most favorite part of all ... the soaking tub!

Serene escape full of rest and relaxation

We had a wonderful, quiet relaxing couple of days in the cocoon. My daughter loved all the games and coloring and exploring she could do and I loved being able to sit still and read in such a beautiful, comfortable place. I was looking for a unique experience and this was it!

About the host

Hosted by Megan Davies

Host profile image
Hello! I'm Megan, the creator+caretaker of Rooted Domes, a boutique glamping experience in the forest of SE Ohio.

By focusing on unique design + top-notch amenities, I ensure a comfortable + captivating stay. I aim to create an unforgettable experience where guests can disconnect from their routine + embrace the forest's beauty.

If you want to hike, explore nearby attractions or simply relax, Rooted Domes is the ideal retreat for your Escape to the Forest!

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!
