"Unforgettable"

Grassy Creek, NC - Be prepared for a totally UNFORGETTABLE experience!! Set on 40+ acres among the rolling hills of Eastern Ashe County and close to Southwest Virginia, you will find this wonderfully handcrafted Buckminster Fuller design Geodesic 3/4 Dome. With over 300 square feet of windows, the home itself makes you feel like part of the surroundings. Solid cherry paneling, wormy chestnut cabinets, and wooden floors are just the beginning. An inside stairway leads to an enclosed observatory at the top of the dome; a perfectly romantic spot to view the stars above the canopy of trees. A deck surrounds half of the exterior of the dome and offers a nice sitting area for relaxing. Just out the kitchen door, a stone pathway leads to the patio, where swing, picnic table, and hot tub await!! Be sure to take some time to stroll around the property. Unforgettable is a tree-growing plantation as well as a working Frasier Fir Christmas tree farm and wildlife preserve, so numerous trails meander through the wooded and open areas. From the highest peaks, you might even catch a glimpse of Grandfather Mountain if it's a clear day. If not, the panoramic views are well worth the walk, and you're sure to enjoy just sitting by the scenic pond area with a cup of coffee or a good book. If you wish to venture out, the property is in close proximity to several landmarks in the area. The North Fork of the New River and Gale Winston's famous River House Gourmet Restaurant are only a couple of miles away. The confluence of the North and South Forks of the New River is about 6 miles away. Shatley Springs Restaurant is 5.5 miles away, and the Mount Rogers National Recreation Area is about 15 miles away via Highway 16N and VA Highway 58. If you're in for a day trip, you'll find directions at the home to Chateau Morrisette (fine dining, deli and winery). Check it out at . It is well worth the 1.5 hour drive north on the Blue Ridge Parkway, at Meadows of Dan, VA where you will also enjoy Mabry Mills. Pick up a Parkway Guide so you don't miss all the hidden treasures along the way! If the man is coming to fish, this is definitely THE PLACE. You are only one mile from Helton Creek Trout Stream, which is visited by fishermen from all over. In addition, this air conditioned home provides a fully equipped kitchen, Satellite TV, VCR, AM/FM Radio with C/D player, Washer/Dryer, and charcoal grill. With 1.5 baths, 1 Queen, 1 Double and 1 Twin Bed, the home will accommodate 5 in the upstairs loft area. Towels and Linens are provided; the home is pet friendly. MAXIMUM OCCUPANCY: 5

Pet paradise
The property is so beautiful. We walked the trails several times a day. Our dogs had a great vacation. They loved the freedom of the place. We heard the flying squirrels and were lucky enough to have one float past the window. Nearby we enjoyed the Grayson Highlands State Park. We did a short hike and got to see some wild ponies. The home is beautifully decorated and you can tell the owner wants you to have a great experience.

Enchanting dome house
This dome house is enchanting! And it's in a serene natural location perfect for relaxing and nature-bathing. The hosts provided everything we needed including little touches like walking sticks and a makeup mirror. The beds and linens are very comfy and the home is beautifully decorated. I highly recommend this unique home for those who love outdoor adventures and indoor coziness.

This place is amazing!!! It is so unique and cool! The trails on the property are also very nice. All the seating outside was also very handy, we ate dinner and lunch outside everyday we stayed. The drive is a little steep, but totally doable. If you are on the fence about booking this place this is a little nudge to do it!!! You won’t regret it!

This is a perfect place for an awesome getaway! Nestled in the country, private in everyway. A super plus if you have a pet, lots of areas to exercise and let your muppy's run free! The home is equipped everything you need. The observatory is a extra added bonus. Beds were clean and we loved the music that was playing when we arrived. There were some cobwebs and also the dishes in the cabinets could use a good washing. There is a great place 1.9 miles down the road for food, veteran owned:) Bonus Hot tub makes the stay all the more relaxing! We will be back! thank you :)

Anniversary Getaway
Property was a bit dated for price. Bathrooms could use some TLC. Also found many spiderwebs in windows. Warning, EXTREMELY steep driveway that was a surprise to us. Other than that, exactly as pictured. Assistance was just a phone call away 24hrs a day. Property was breathtaking. Just us and nature. Exactly what we were looking for ❤️

Unique property immersed in nature, we loved it
The property was secluded and beautiful, and the dome was so much fun. The family and dog had a wonderful time relaxing and exploring the grounds. Had a fire in the fire pit, soaked in the hot tub, watched some hoops, and hiked the nature trails. Ventured out to Grayson Highlands. The kids went up into the observatory on top of the dome. We didn't fish but saw a few fish jumping in the pond. Property was very clean and kitchen had the cooking necessities. Awesome getaway!

Secluded and unforgettable
The dome has everything you need for a wonderful trip except food and your friends. Beds are comfortable with nice linens, plenty of towels for the hot tub. A well stocked kitchen with the basics. The moon was shining right through the window over the bed each night and zero noise can be heard from the road. Best sleep I've had in ages! The top of the driveway is a little steep, so go at an angle if you have a low ground clearance car so you don't bottom out as you pull in the parking area. We will absolutely be back

Perfect Unique Getaway
My partner and I wanted an isolated three days away from it all somewhere unique, in the mountains, and with a hot tub. Unforgettable delivered. This fascinating geodesic dome property is beautiful inside and out, and the property owners went to great lengths to attend to the small details that make a trip perfect. There was even music on to greet us when we got inside! You’ll love the beautiful woods, view from the fire pit, clean hot tub and rustic atmosphere. And best of all…we were 100% alone on this large property. We’ll be back!
