Welcome to your one-of-a-kind getaway, nestled on a sprawling 30-acre property with the dome situated in its own private 4-acre section—just 50 minutes from the city. During summer its full weekend stays only BOOK FRIDAY AND SATURDAY-SUNDAY IS FREE. This allows guests to fully enjoy their Sunday without feeling rushed to check out at 11am. Enjoy all day Sunday with option of staying the evening. BRING THE WHOLE FAMILY - 4 person bunkie available $120/night Just around the corner is the thrilling Rail Yard Wake & Aqua Park—a top spot for water sports lovers and thrill-seekers alike. Whether you want to try wakeboarding, challenge yourself on inflatable obstacle courses, or simply relax lakeside with friends, Rail Yard offers endless fun and unforgettable memories. For outdoor enthusiasts, you’ll find countless walking trails, scenic golf courses, and the beautiful Jackson’s Point Beach nearby—providing plenty to explore and enjoy. At the dome, you also have access to a full-size beach badminton court and classic horseshoe pits, perfect for friendly competition and outdoor fun for all ages. After an active day, return to your cozy dome, where peaceful privacy, natural views, and soothing lighting await. Experience the ideal balance between adventure and relaxation—all just minutes apart. Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped bathroom with shower and a functional kitchen for preparing meals in comfort. A plush leather loveseat invites you to unwind after a day of exploring, while elegant laminate floors add a stylish touch. Air conditioning keeps you comfortable no matter the weather. The dome comfortably sleeps two, but guests are welcome to bring others and pitch a tent nearby. Important Air Conditioning Note Because the dome is made entirely of glass, sunlight warms the interior during the day. As a result, the space tends to stay warm (not hot) even with air conditioning running and won’t cool as much as a traditional insulated room. However, on cloudy days and evenings with little sunlight, the dome feels quite cool. The 3-ton air conditioning unit and fans circulate air and help reduce heat, but when the sun is shining, it won’t get cold inside. Thank you for understanding and enjoying the unique atmosphere of this beautiful glass dome!

Like most folks who’ve been bitten by the water ski bug, I dreamed of having my own lake and when I met my life partner Harald, an elite slalom skier, my search began in earnest. By a combination of good timing and good luck, I was able to make that dream come true and in the spring of 2014 I acquired this land with the hopes of building my dream water ski lake on it. 7 years later, we have a thriving water ski club and are constantly making improvements to the site. We now have decided to add some sites for rent to share this incredible property with others outside the water ski community. Site #1 is a small cabin that sleeps 3 and site #2 is a small houseboat that has been converted to a bunkie. Onsite activities include use of a canoe and paddleboard. Use of a kid's swingset and olympic trampoline. Swimming and fishing. Pets are welcome, campfires are permitted.
