A fully functional bathroom comes stocked with washcloths, towels, and basic toiletries.
You will definitely feel like you're at a luxury resort!

This Luxurious Glamping Dome in North Carolina Is One of the Most Unusual Airbnb Listings Ever
Experience the ultimate glamping getaway in North Carolina's Chimney Rock, Lake Lure area with luxurious domes offering scenic views and modern amenities.
In light of the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene, the location mentioned in this article has been severely damaged or destroyed. Please consult local authorities and official updates for the most current information regarding the affected area.
Whoever invented the gentle art of glamping deserves more than an award or simple recognition. Glamping (especially glamping in the mountains of North Carolina) is truly an addicting experience, to say the least. Once you've glamped and enjoyed a few more luxuries you just can't get while traditional camping, you may not want to go back to regular camping. Without further ado, here's more on why you'll want to book at least a few nights at this one-of-a-kind dome Airbnb in North Carolina.

One of the most unusual glamping experiences you'll find in the Tar Heel State is found in the Chimney Rock, Lake Lure area. It's here, on the side of a mountain that you'll find a pair of glamping domes that are like a five-star hotel, compared to regular tent camping.
Imagine falling asleep in Dome #1 (featured throughout this article) while counting the stars high above. One whole side of the dome features a see-through wall, perfect for bringing the outdoors into your luxurious getaway for the night or weekend (or longer).
The dome features just the right amount of space for two guests to get cozy and comfortable for the duration of the stay. A comfortable mattress and all bed linens are provided.
Indoor plumbing, including a shower with hot water, is provided in a space that feels more like a spa than a restroom in a remote dome on the side of a mountain. And over in the kitchen, a fridge, microwave, pots and pans, silverware, and other essentials for preparing and serving a delicious meal are provided.
You'll really want for nothing in this luxurious little getaway. It even has an air conditioner as well as heating. What more could you possibly want?
How about a private hot tub? Yes ... it has that, too! After your late afternoon soak with a glass of wine, head across the lawn to the fire pit, where you can gaze into the glowing flame as you watch the sun go down on a fabulous day.
As mentioned earlier, there are two luxurious glamping domes listed by this Airbnb host. The second one (seen here overlooking the water) is nearby and is equally wonderful.
You can get more information on Dome #1 featured here by checking out the official Airbnb listing. And if you want to know more about the second glamping dome, check the official Airbnb listing.
