"My wife and I don't do much camping, so Glamping appealed to us as a fun way to "rough it" for a couple nights. The Bigfoot dome was perfect. Host Trina made sure we had everything we needed for a clean, comfortable, warm, and pet friendly stay. From the spectacular views, to a sky filled with stars, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again."

Stunning Off-Grid Dome with Spectacular Views for a Unique Glamping Getaway in Montana

8/10 Good
"It was not clear that there was no toilet in the unit, but it was stated in a way for the reader can reasonably make the assumption it was in the unit. Otherwise, as a frequent UTI sufferer, I would not have chosen this type of accommodation. The flashlight did not work, so we could find the outhouse in the middle of the night. The bed was way too hard and felt like we were sleeping on a big table at the doctor's office. It was very cold at night, and we did not trust the heater provided. However, there were plenty of blankets. It leaks and is starting to exhibit some mold on the windows. Location was great. The unit was like you would have when camping but not unsanitary. Suggestion: move the outdoor grill away from the front door, as it is in the way of going in or out, and it is not safe. Great idea on how they prevented the wind from blowing the outhouse away."
