We loved the riverside location, and our wildlife sightings included a bald eagle and heron. The home was comfortable, well appointed with directions on how to use the amenities. The artwork was lovely and contributed to the artsy design of the Dome home. We had a wonderful stay.

A perfect spot

This cozy dome home at the end of the road was the perfect spot for our stay in Boothbay. We especially loved the light filled and spacious living room for gathering and games. Eating dinner on the deck was divine. It's close proximity to the botanical gardens was another bonus. We will definitely stay here again.

Dome House Was Great for Dog Vacation

The house was perfect for our little barkers because it was secluded and comfortable. The BRLT trails are great and so many within a 20 mi radius. Maine is already very dog friendly.

Charming little "hobbit dome" in a wooded area also close to the botanical garden, trails and the harbor made for a lovely get-away.

Near Maine Coastal Botanic Garden

Convenient location for Boothbay activities, especially the Botanical Garden; yet a quiet and private retreat. Totally removed from light pollution -- so great star-gazing.

Beautiful location near Boothsbay!

We stayed in October when the trees were gorgeous and the dome house is nestled in a wooded area. So pretty! Lots of room for everyone. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Sweet and quiet stay

The property was lovely. At the end of a quiet road, overlooking the water, the dome house was a lovely. It was an excellent home base to enjoy booth bay. Also being minutes from the botanical garden was awesome, we ended up going twice.
