Planetarium Treehouse, one of the 100 winners of the worldwide OMG! Fund contest. Awaken your inner astronomer with serene lake views and vibrant starry night skies. This is a unique escape for those who seek wonder.

The treehouse feels private but has easy access to all the amenities of Springdale, Rogers, Bentonville, or Fayetteville. Access to Beaver Lake is simply a 2 minute drive, or a 10 minute hike down the road where you will find beach access to launch kayaks.

Inside the main living area Geodesic Dome:
- Bright, pristine interior with plenty of natural lighting and a giant hexagon window in the loft
- A geodesic dome ceiling with an at-home star projector that can turn the ceiling into a planetarium (perfect for cloudy days!)
- A kitchenette with an electric cook top, mini fridge, coffee nook, microwave, and other essentials
- Bathroom with a toilet, sink, shower and custom tile mosaic
- Curved staircase to an expansive loft with a queen sized bed
- Comfortable sofa that converts to another queen sized bed on the bottom floor
- High speed 5G internet

Inside the Observatory Tower:
- A completely clear polycarbonate dome ceiling for stargazing
- High powered telescopes for guests to use
- Color-changing LED lighting around the rim of the clear dome and through the hallway
- TV/media room with a Roku streaming device

Featuring outside:
- BBQ grill, a picnic table, and lounge chairs on the deck
- Year-round lake view
- Nearly a full wrap around deck
- An upper tower balcony featuring the best views of the lake and sky


Guests can access all parts of the treehouse except for one of the utility closets under the stairs.

If you are hosting a larger group, please consider booking our A-frame cabin called Lakeview Haven in conjunction with this Planetarium Treehouse. The A-frame is located next door slightly down the street from this property, and is an easy 1 minute walk between the two properties. Simply click on our host profile to see our other listing.

Important Note: This is a very unique structure. The Observatory Tower (clear dome) is subject to more temperature changes than the rest of the home. This means it will be hotter or colder in the Observatory Tower than the rest of the home. We do have a larger mini split up in the tower to help heat/cool the area. This also helps circulate to the lower part of the tower in the TV room. Guests should be aware that the Observatory Tower’s main purpose is for stargazing and may not be your ideal temperature. The rest of the structure (main dome) is not affected by this and will be a normal comfortable temperature.

Disclaimer: Hosts are NOT responsible for issuing refunds, discounts, or rebookings for last minute changes within two weeks prior to check in. If you think you may need to cancel or rebook for any reason (weather, illness, etc), we highly encourage guests to purchase Travel Insurance to receive reimbursements directly from VRBO support. If the weather during your booked dates is not ideal for stargazing, you may enjoy using the star projector indoors instead.

    Very responsive host. Once you get past the Wow Factor of the geodesic dome and the planetarium, you really notice all the wonderful little touches and accessories the owners have included. Our three night stay over Thanksgiving made for a memorable, fun visit in this unique cabin.

    I saw this home on Instagram about a year ago and finally had the chance to come to Arkansas! The home is super cute, just as pictured. It’s within a drivable distance for a day in Eureka Springs, which was so fun! DoorDash/UberEats options are pretty decent for being in a more remote area. We saw a few deer, squirrels, turtles and birds from the expansive patio. The only minor issue we ran into were the telescopes were hard to work, they just felt pretty loose from a lot of wear and tear but the views were still great!
