Spend The Night Stargazing In A Translucent Dome Near The Grand Canyon In Arizona

Arizona boasts some of the darkest skies in the nation, and you can marvel at the Milky Way and trillions of shimmering stars when you spend the night in this unique Airbnb near the Grand Canyon. A dome with a completely translucent ceiling, it’s far enough away from civilization to escape light pollution while still being just close enough to popular area attractions.

Nestled on a secluded, one-acre property, this unique Airbnb couldn't possibly feel more remote - even though it's just 35 minutes away from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon.
