The dome is situated on a serene and secluded area on the back 30 acres. It offers breathtaking views of the majestic mountains and gleaming water. The space is perfect for couples or small families who are looking for a peaceful retreat away from the chaos of the city. Inside, you will find one room with a comfortable queen-size bed and a cozy sitting area where you can relax and unwind. The dome is a perfect getaway for nature lovers or meditation enthusiasts seeking a quiet and calming space, with majestic sunsets to rejuvenate their body and mind. Most importantly, you will be glamping with a cause as 100 percent of the earnings go to our rescue horses (we are a 501c3 nonprofit). Our glamp site digs the rustic lifestyle, with facilities that will make you feel like a true outdoorsy champ! For now, our sustainable off-grid approach means we're keeping it simple with our very own eco-friendly and charming porta potty. We currently do not have running water, or electricity (we do provide battery powered lights and a reserve battery for the coffee maker) but don't worry, we've got big plans to expand and offer you even more glamping goodness in the near future!Enjoy the sounds of nature when you stay in our one of a kind dome with a pristine view of the lake and Longs Peak as your backdrop. With the best sunsets in Colorado, our hope is that you’ll be able to disconnect, reconnect and leave our ranch feeling refreshed and energized. Additionally, you’ll be glamping (glamorous camping) with a cause as 100 percent of the proceeds go to our rescue horses/ nonprofit! If you would like to meet our rescue horses, please schedule in advance. Glamping is "glamorous," but it is still "off grid." To prepare for your stay, pay attention to the added notes below.

Cozy Dome & Breathtaking Sunsets

Wow- what an amazing place! The sunset views were so beautiful, and the option to remain outside with a cozy propane fire, or slip inside to the comfy chairs positioned to take in the view is a great option. Thoughtfully decorated and nice touches throughout. Heather has thought of all the amenities you may need and has them readily available. The hosts were accommodating with check in, and met us to ensure we had everything we needed and to answer any questions. It’s noted in the site listing that you’re near train tracks, but we didn’t personally find that to be an issue at all. We had 1 train go by, and actually found it fun to watch. The sound of a train paled in comparison to nature’s soundtrack- which is exactly what we wanted. The geese honking while flying by in formation, waking to birds chirping in the morning, and the sounds of nature at night to put you to sleep. It’s magical! We were warm and cozy with the blankets provided, but the cute fireplace is a lovely touch and would be awesome in the cooler months. There is a palpable positive energy you feel in the space, which we attribute to the thoughtful placement and privacy of the dome, along with the animal rescue mission of the owners and the kindness and good energy that they put out into their land, the animals, and the world. We wanted a place to be where we could we could unwind and reground, and this place was absolutely perfect. We had an amazing stay, and won’t hesitate to come back.

Dome Style glamping

With pets

I recently visited a glamping site featuring a stunning dome-style tent, and it was an incredible experience. The spacious layout allowed for plenty of room to relax, and the serene atmosphere made it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. I loved the tranquil surroundings and the chance to unwind in such a unique setting. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to reconnect with nature in style!

Comfy, clean, and beautiful.

Group trip

We loved staying at Acres of Hope retreat. Both of the glamping domes are beautifully decorated with many personal touches. The host provides everything you need for a clean, comfortable, pleasant stay. The beds are very comfortable and with extra soft blankets, we slept like logs. There is a railroad nearby with a train or two through the night, but we were not bothered at all. The host also provides earplugs for those who might be light sleepers. There are snacks, waters, coffee, games to play, and even a place to charge your electronics. The grounds are gorgeous. There is a pond near the camping sites with lots of wild life and beautiful sunsets. We especially loved finding a tiny frog or two. They were so cute. The restroom was one of the cleanest porta potties we have ever been in and even has a light for the nighttime. The pathways are lit at night also, making it easy to get around the campsites. The host also lets you meet all of the horses and farm animals of Acres of Hope. They are super sweet animals and it is an amazing non profit rescue. We really enjoyed our time here. Thanks so much for an amazing getaway!

Beautiful relaxation

Heather and Tonys property is nothing short of magical. We were able to relax and unwind in private. The dome was extremely clean and filled with thoughtful touches and lots of convenience items. The bathroom was also clean and filled with handy items. Heather was so thoughtful, attentive, and so nice to communicate with. We will be coming back and are so happy to support a good cause.
