Waterfront serenity tucked into the timeless beauty of an old homestead. Gods Country. A place where the past lingers gently, offering quiet moments and a slower rhythm, steeped in the spirit of simpler times. The property has a railroad track nearby with trains running several times a day. There is no whistle, but if you are a light sleeper the rumble may be a disturbance. 23.5 hours a day are incredibly peaceful. The other half hour is a nostalgic sound track, echoing the spirit of American industry that helped build a nation!

The dome glamping experience was wonderful! The interior of the bison decor was very cute and the perfect set up for my two gal friends and I. Beautiful view of the plains and river, both from inside the dome and the wooden porch it sits on. The propane heater was much appreciated, and took the chill off inside the dome. Trina was a terrific host, greeting us when we first arrived and showed us to our dome. She made sure we had what we needed, and has done a great job setting up her property. Fantastic getaway for us gals!!

I booked at the last moment, late in the evening and Trina (and her awesome son, Steele) was there to greet us right as we arrived. They showed us to the dome and brought us a several gallon jug of water to use. The buck dome was perfect with comfortable beds. There was a BBQ available to cook our dinner on so we didn't have to dig out our camp stoves. Clean shared portapotty and hot shower a short walk away. Trina thought of everything needed for a nice glamping stay on a gorgeous property. The views do not disappoint and Trina was so fun to chat with and filled with fantastic recommendations for places well outside of montana that are on our itenerary. Next time we come to Montana we will be sure to book a stay.

My wife and I loved staying in the Bigfoot dome. We wish we started out road trip with this stay instead of making it our last stop so we could stay longer. The views are absolutely incredible and there were cows and deer wandering right outside. The sunrise and sunsets are amazing and the stars at night are incredible. Host is very nice and informative about things to do in the area and we'll definitely recommend and visit again.

Really enjoyed the Bison Dome! 4 of us stayed and we were very comfortable and had lots of elbow room. We were fortunate enough to enjoy an amazing thunder and lightning storm and the dome provided outstanding views of the lightning! Morning views were incredible. The deer were a bonus. We will definitely be back to check this out again. Trina is an awesome host for sure.

Weekend Trip to Off The Beaten Path Glampground

Loved the dome tent at Trina's site. We stayed for a day and wish we had more time. The views perched at the top are amazing - with mountains, the river - the climate temperate. No mosquitos. Site itself was very clean and had all the amenities we needed - chargers, clean toilet, fans - there is a heater, but wasn't needed at this time of the year. Indoor and outdoor games, BBQ with all utensils. Trina was a very attentive and warm host and since she's onsite - all needs were taken care of promptly and with a warm attitude. Whether you are a family or a romantic couple or just someone looking for a surreal relaxing experience, highly recommend this place. Cheers Mohan and family.

This site is truly awesome! The view was spectacular. Trina met me and drove me up the hill to direct me to the spot and made sure everything was in order before leaving me to my spot. Sunset was gorgeous and in the morning I had a deer munching just 10 feet away as I brushed my teeth in the outdoor sink. Highly recommend.

Megan and Jay were wonderful hosts!! Even though we arrived much later than expected, they were so kind to welcome us and guide us to our private, peaceful campsite. We woke up next to donkeys and horses, also being greeted by Tom the hipcamp dog! We were surrounded by mountains by day, and glimpses of the milky way by night. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful campsite.
