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.

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.
Airbnb
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.
Airbnb
Towels, soap, and other essential toiletries are provided.
