The Dome (Idy Dome)


Unlike many homes in Idyllwild that are nestled deep in the forest, the Dramatic Geodesic Dome sits on the edge of Crestview Drive, offering sweeping views of the valley and even the ocean on the clearest days. Newly remodeled and now featuring AC and heat, the Dome is set on over 1.5 acres and includes three cozy fireplaces, a 26-foot vaulted ceiling in the living room, and a hot tub ideal for enjoying sunset views. The property backs up to a stunning 40-foot rock formation, with Native American acorn grinding bowls carved into the top—right where the views are best. Watch deer climb the hillside, dine indoors or out, and stargaze under crystal-clear mountain skies. Game Room & Sauna: The game room also serves as a 5th bedroom. For reservations made after July 1st, it’s included automatically. If your stay was booked before July 1st and you’d like access, please request it ahead of time. (Fees may apply to adding the Game room)

Uncomfortable Summer Rental

"It was very hot in Idyllwild during our stay and the dome house is not suited for that kind of weather. There is only 1 portable A/C unit in the entire house that could not keep up with the heat and the size of the room. There were fans, but that really wasn't enough either. On top of that the cold tub was broken, so we couldn't use that to cool down. The kitchen was really nice, but who wants to cook when it's that hot?"

Response from New Spirit Vacation Homes:

Greg, Thank you very much for your candid review of your recent stay at our Dome home. Your feedback is extremely valuable to us, as we strive to improve with each and every stay. We greatly appreciate your comments about the portable AC unit and the tub and will take up these issues with our maintenance and management team. During your stay we experienced a heatwave that is uncommon in Idyllwild. We have not experienced this kind of weather in many decades. We hope that you will consider our properties in the future when booking another getaway. With much appreciation, New Spirit Vacation Homes

The Dome

"I booked the Dome for a girls weekend and booking process was very easy as well as getting the keys and everything. Upon arriving to the house, it was a little less than I expected with some things broken like a screen door, outdoor fireplace, toilet paper holders..but was able to look past it due to the view and ambiance. It wasn't until a few hours later an awful sewage smell started and it became intolerable. Thankfully, when I reported it Monica was more than accommodating and offered to place us in a new house, The Lily Rock Lodge. Everything turned out to be perfect and again, the process of switching houses was very easy. Monica & Nikki are wonderful to work with and I would stay in one of their homes again!"

Response from New Spirit Vacation Homes:

Andriana, Thank you for your review. Your feedback is highly valued to us. We apologize for the situation with the sewage tank, it was pump & inspected on Monday and we are happy to report it is not in working condition & do appreciate the heads up. We have spoke with our Quality Assurance Team and the have assured that the screen & toilet paper holder was fixed immediately. Please also note that Idyllwild does not allow outdoor wood fires, as this is a new ordinance with the drought. We thank you and your group for being really understanding and awesome. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay overall and look forward to your next visit with us. Best Regards, New Spirit Vacation Homes

The Dome In Idyllwild

"The location was incredible. The home was very nice and had everything needed to cook for 7 adults! A few minor maintenance/repairs are needed. We could not get the speakers to work for music. The computer is set up but not working. Our think our biggest problem was there was no salt shaker! Overall it was a great and fun weekend."

Nancy, Thank you for the review! Your feedback is extremely valuable to us and we strive to improve with each and every stay. We apologize that you were unable to use the speakers or computer, we wish you would have called us so we could have came over and helped out! And regarding the salt shaker, we did find it after your stay (it looks like someone hid it from you guys) and it was in a inconvenient place so we apologize for that as well. We really hope that you consider staying with us next time you and your group decide to come up to the mountains and if you do, please do not hesitate to call if there are any problems and we will always be there to assist you. Best Regards, New Spirit Vacation Homes

Perfect Winter Getaway

"Idyllwild is a hidden treasure and staying at the dome was the absolutely perfect accommodation for friends and I celebrating my fiancés birthday! The view from every window was breathe-taking! Especially watching the sunset in the jacuzzi. The location was secluded but still close to downtown. The entire home was decorated for Christmas, a sweet touch to a the impeccable unique home. The house was incredibly clean with heaps of linens. The rental company did an excellent job to make sure we were well taken care of. "
