The Dome Retreat – 2 Mins to WinStar Stay Close to the Action

More than a stay — it’s your reset button with a front-row seat to the fun.
Located just 2 minutes from WinStar Casino & Lucas Oil Live, this modern geodesic dome at The Connect in Thackerville keeps you close to the excitement — you may even catch the faint rhythm of music from the WinStar pool on summer nights.

Designed for caregivers, couples, and travelers seeking comfort and convenience, this one-of-a-kind dome blends boutique style with a playful edge.

Highlights
• King bed + full bath for relaxed comfort
• Outdoor rain shower, covered patio & fire pit for unwinding after the action
• Games: Cornhole • Golf • Fitness corner
• Just off I-35 Exit 3 for quick casino, concert & dining access

Good to Know
You’re near all the energy that makes WinStar sparkle — so while the vibe is lively, the dome still offers a cozy, private retreat when you’re ready to recharge.
Water may take a few minutes to warm due to the system’s distance from the heater.

We loved it. The shower felt like I was showering in nature, which was so cool.great body soap and shampoo were provided. The bed was very comfortable. Staying in a yert was our first experience and we thought is was really cool. Breakfast, waters, and a couple beers were provided. While we opted out on the microwave sausage egg cheese biscuits, we were very grateful. A true B&B. We would totally book again. We were apprehensive about how AC cool it was going to be, but after our Air Supply concert and some gaming, it was ice cold.

Great Place

We were looking for something different from your typical hotel. The Dome was perfect. Felicia was a great hostess in giving us our space, but communicated perfectly. I loved the outdoor shower. My only suggestion is more lighting in the bathroom.

Great experience

This place is awesome! Domes are amazing, the bed is next level comfortable, the heater in the dome kept it nice and warm—and it was 37 outside. I requested the romantic package to surprise my wife for our 3rd year anniversary, kudos to the owner for thinking of everything. We can’t wait to come back and stay longer! Great couples getaway. Very private and secluded. Amazing sunset and sunrise views, both were nice to watch.

Awesome

Wonderful place to stay and wonderful host. Great communication. We were right down the street from Winstar. Also a personal twist my wife and I were there for the Ryan Bingham concert when we walked in that’s what was playing on the Tv. We thought that was so cool and very thoughtful. We loved it and can’t wait to go back.

Best Getaway!!

My husband and I celebrated our valentines and it was amazing! The host was always there for us answering all of my questions and the dome was absolutely amazing and so beautiful!! We were in Aw when we arrived and walked in. It was great just spending alone time with my husband - great getaway for a married couple with kids. We loved it and will definitely be coming back in the future. Thank you so much for your hospitality. 😊

Fantastic getaway!

Hidden gem a minute away from winstar! Very cozy, romantic dome home! From the moment you walk in, the music, the wam inviting atmosphere captures you! Outdoor shower is best for warmer weather, but defiently a fun and new experience! Dome equiped with ac and heater for maximum comfort! I reccomend bringing some flashlights for extra lighting cause it does get a bit dark! I believe this is a good getaway for the couples who dont mind being in each others boundries! Overall an amazing new close experience for me and my partner! Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality! ♡ We loved it!♡

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
On the website the discription of the accommodations was very misleading. I thought I had rented a room. But it was a geodetic dome on a wooden platform in the middle of the field. There was inadequate indoor seating. The shower was outside on the corner of the deck behind a wall that was about to fall over. The shower itself was a rusty horse trough with a pipe and shower head. To access the shower area you had to go outside. We did not stay there. When we talked to the host she was apologetic. And claimed that there was no misrepresentation of the property on the website. No offer was given to refund any of my money .Not what I was expecting at all!

Peaceful and convenient

The globe was extremely clean and comfortable. Although it was cold outside the air unit did well of keeping the temperature comfortable.The area is within walking distance of Lucas Oil Live, which is why we made the trip. Extremely convenient to the activities at WinStar.We felt some information probably needs to be shared. The shower is outside of the globe and is a steel bath tub located in an area of no heat. We also didn't have any hot water during the stay. Our host promised to look into the issue after it was reported.Even with that issue, the host was extremely accommodating allowing us to us the shower in an adjoining structure and we certainly appreciate her help in the situation. We will have NO issue returning the next time we're coming to enjoy a show at Lucas Oil Live. Any small inconvience certainly is outweighed by the economy stay compared to the casino. We even had the job of having a group of coyotes sing to us late one night from a field or two from the globe. Really cool!!! Thank you, Felicia!! You're awesome!!!
