The Space:
The night sky opens like a dark canvas, constellations spilling across the windows while the scent of pine drifts through the private deck. A gentle crackle from the fire pit fills the cool air, and the distant hills soften into a hush that invites you to slow down. Inside, the dome’s warm glow wraps around you after a day of hiking, offering a quiet retreat where the mountains feel close enough to touch.
Sleeping arrangements
The loft‑style dome sleeps up to four guests. A king‑size bed rests on the main level, and a queen‑size loft bed sits above, positioned for night‑sky views through expansive windows. A set of stairs leads to the loft, making the space best suited for guests comfortable with a multi‑level interior.
Interior comforts
Heating keeps the dome cozy during colder months, and air conditioning is available when temperatures rise. WiFi supports streaming and remote work, while a TV and sound system provide low‑key entertainment for evenings indoors. The full indoor bathroom includes a shower and standard bathroom essentials, allowing you to unwind without stepping back into the cold.
Kitchen & dining
A compact kitchen lets you brew coffee in the morning and prepare simple meals for dinner. A dining table offers a place to eat, play board games, or plan the next day’s adventure, all within the shelter of the dome.
Outdoor living
Step onto your private deck to breathe in the mountain air. A fire pit becomes a natural gathering spot for s’mores and conversation, and a BBQ grill extends the dining experience outdoors. Outdoor seating lets you linger even in cooler seasons, wrapped in the glow of the fire.
Property setting
Orion sits on 35 wooded acres at one of the highest points of a private retreat in Wardensville, West Virginia. Free parking is available on the premises. The retreat also includes another dome about 100 feet away and a yurt over 400 feet distant; while you may see other guests, your dome retains its own deck and fire pit for a sense of separation.
Local highlights
A short drive brings you to hiking trails, fishing spots, and Lost River State Park. Nearby towns offer cafés, restaurants, and local shops for relaxed afternoon outings before returning to the dome’s warmth.
Winter travel considerations
Snow or icy conditions may require four‑wheel drive or tire chains, and travel insurance is recommended during winter months. Refunds are not provided for road conditions outside the host’s control.
Whether you’re stargazing from the loft, warming up by the fire pit, or simply listening to the forest’s quiet rhythm, Orion offers a grounded seasonal escape centered on nature and stillness.
