Good to know

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DOME’S WINDOWS HAVE BECOME OPAQUE AND ARE NO LONGER AS CLEAR AS SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS. WE’RE IN THE PROCESS OF REPLACING THEM, BUT FOR NOW THEY REMAIN OPAQUE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AS WE ADDRESS THIS MATTER. The main level features a king-size bed, two sofa chairs, and a dining table with four chairs. A huge open window offers incredible views of the sunset and starlit sky. The loft provides a warm, cozy space with two sofa chairs that open into thick single-size mattresses and a soft foam floor. Additionally, two single-size beds are available upon request for extra guests. The kitchenette includes a microwave, refrigerator, Keurig coffee machine, and a cooktop with pots and pans. It is fully stocked with dining ware, glassware, and utensils for convenience. The dome is equipped with split-unit heating and cooling for year-round comfort, while an air vent at the top improves air circulation. A wood fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, and extra space heaters are available for colder nights. Your bathroom features a marble-top double vanity, a beautiful claw-foot tub, and a self-cleaning bidet toilet, with plush towels provided. The wraparound deck is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. String lights create a warm nighttime ambiance. Relax and recharge with our newly added 750 gallon hot tub, and our cold plunge! Perfect for wellness enthusiasts, athletes, or anyone looking to cool off after a hot tub soak or sauna session. Please note that the hot tub is chemical free, and uses Montmorillonite, a natural, volcanic clay to clean for a soothing and relaxing experience. Golden Pine is also home to Thunder, our friendly Longhorn bull who roams freely across the property!

Zvi and Shmuel were wonderful hosts, and created a lovely space to rest and relax. They were quick to respond and clear communicators, and personally welcomed us as we arrived. The space is well designed, offering a quiet haven to unplug. We’ll definitely be back again.

Fantastic stay to get away from crowds. Bring a book, binoculars, no TV which is a bonus. No shower, only a claw tub. If you’re tall you will be cramped. But it was a wonderful stay and definitely needed.

We stayed here on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and it was truly unforgettable. The dome was incredibly peaceful, spotless, and felt so intimate and magical. The décor was absolutely stunning it genuinely felt like we were staying at a luxury resort tucked away in nature. It was a little slice of paradise right here in Texas. This place is perfect for a romantic getaway. My wife and I completely fell in love with the experience and enjoyed every single moment together. The host was also so kind and welcoming, which made our stay even more special.💗

Even better than expected! There's definitely a few surprises and upgrades. My sister and I went for our yearly business retreat and we will book every year! Extremely peaceful. The dome is thoughtfully designed and the bed is extremely comfortable. Great communication and the place was immaculate.
