Mid-Century Modern Geodesic Dome, Walk to town, Amazing Views, Lots of space!

Lovely home for our annual Thanksgiving trip. The parking pass for local hiking was a nice extra touch. We enjoyed everything!

The Dome house was so welcoming for our holiday away, even had a decorated Christmas tree! We did a lot of cooking and the kitchen had everything we needed and was perfect for many cooks in the kitchen together. It was a short walk to the town which is a wonderful, interesting, friendly mountain town. There were 5 of us and we had plenty of room to relax and have quiet time. When the sun was shining on the porch we were even able to have Christmas lunch there. Being a Dome house voices carry but Ida, the host, thought of everything and had earplugs available for anyone who needed them. We had a wonderful time and look forward to visiting again. Thanks Ida for your hospitality!

This stay was truly incredible. Ida was extremely communicative, thorough, and accommodating. The personal touches were so thoughtful-- she left a bottle of wine and a card for each child who was supposed to stay (sadly the other family couldn't make it due to illness). You can tell she takes great pride in the Dome. It was in impeccable shape. The acoustics were incredible! And the place had so many games, toys, books, and information about the area. The fireplace was cozy as were the beds, couches, and seats. My 14 month old and 3.5 year old had a BLAST. And it was so close to town. The kitchen was also very well equipped- and spacious! The Dome truly was the perfect stay! One recommendation for those with small kids- if you want to walk to town, I would note that there are no sidewalks so probably best to do it in daylight (we sadly tried in the dark, which was unwise). We would absolutely stay here again. We loved this home. You must stay-- you will not regret it.

We stayed here for three nights with another family with three kids in total. The dome has everything you need for cooking and entertaining, this place is highly recommended.

The dome has all the amenities. Close to town. Lots of hiking trails near by. House was cozy and warm. We had a wonderful time.

The house is unique and memorable. Great views. Ida was excellent. One thing to keep in mind, it had no air condition, but the fans and opening Windows made it fine.

First, Ida was amazing. Great about communicating, super helpful with suggestions and needs. She was always kind during correspondence and never made me feel like I was asking too many questions. The house had everything you could need for cooking, which was a lovely surprise. As someone who rents a lot, and for over twenty years, this was the best experience in Idyllwild I’ve ever had.

The Dome was very impressive. Besides being clean, Ida had setup some treats for the family. The mauve colored carpet was unique, however, it was the acoustics of the dome that were really cool. We really liked all the details of the interior design, from the vintage sideboards to the 3D picture frame. It is close to the town center, about a 12 min walk. Overall, it was a much needed getaway. Highly recommend.

This is a great property for family, friends, or a solo retreat. Very clean, spacious, nice touches, and has everything you need. Loved the loft and reading nook. Loved the big screen TV. Loved the soaking tub and rainfall shower. I had a great stay, very relaxing, comfortable, and didn't want to leave. I will definitely be back. Ida is a great host, very thoughtful and attentive, and helpful.

This place is amazing! Besides the unique architecture, it is close to town and you can walk everywhere. Ida is incredible and really makes you feel welcome- especially the best banana bread in the world! Great birthday celebration and we will be back!
