Note: Aurora is part of a large private retreat, with one other property nearby (150 ft away). While you may see other guests at these properties during your stay, Aurora is still quite secluded — with your own private hot tub, deck, and fire pit.
Our dome is tucked into the mountains, offering a truly unique and peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. Unlike a traditional home, domes aren’t sealed in the same way, so you may occasionally spot a bug or two inside. While this isn’t typically an issue for most of the year, you might see more small insects—like crickets—during early spring and summer.
We do our best to manage this with regular treatments and thorough cleanings, but a few curious visitors may still sneak in. If you're looking for pristine hotel-like conditions, this might not be the right fit—but if you love the outdoors and a bit of adventure, you'll feel right at home!
Our cleaning team sweeps the deck, stairs, and walkways before each arrival, but due to the natural setting, you may still notice some leaves, pollen, or similar—especially during certain seasons. We appreciate your understanding as nature tends to leave its mark, no matter how often we tidy up!
Between exploring the unique features of our dome and enjoying the wooded, mountainside vista, Aurora is the perfect vacation spot. The property is adjacent to a 37-acre private nature preserve, with plenty of hiking trails and areas to explore.
In addition, you’re about 20 minutes away from nearly countless wilderness attractions, including whitewater rafting at Pleasantdale’s Tearcoat Creek, lake swimming at Buffalo Gap Retreat in Capon Bridge, and hunting and fishing within the 400-acre forest of the Edwards Run Wildlife Management Area.
