Nice “glamping” experience. We had never done this kind of vacation but found it to be comfortable and easy Stephane is a great host and in process of major upgrades to the geodesic domes. Probably will be even better in 2026!

Unique accommodation in a lovely local location

This is a unique place to stay, and set on a beautiful lake/calm water. The dome was great, 2 beds for the 4 of us, a great bathroom area, and another small area with a sink, kettle and some mugs. A fridge, or even communal fridge would have been a bonus, although we could hire a cool box with ice to help keep our food cool. Kayaks and SUPs are free to hire which is great along with like jackets, a real plus. Whilst there, they were working on building more pods, so not quite as peaceful as it could be with the work going on, but not a massive issue.

The stay was very comfortable, Owner very attentive. Since we stayed there for 2 nights, we had the opportunity to kayak for free. When it started to rain a little, the owner gave us a canopy to hide from the rain when we had lunch or dinner. The holiday was wonderful

Glamorous camping

It was a very nice and relaxing experience. We loved being in the outdoors. Kayaking and Canoeing equipments were provided for free, which was amazing.

Liked: Staff & service
The experience does not quite align with the concept of luxury glamping, as the property is currently undergoing renovations that detract from its initial appeal. While check-in was straightforward and the option to choose a dome was a thoughtful addition, the absence of a welcome pack—such as washing up liquid and cloth—was noticeable. Although the bed was spacious, the overall atmosphere lacked warmth and felt uninviting. In summary, the facility is in need of significant updates to enhance its appeal

Overall loved our stay. Had thought we would have view of water but only 2 domes did. Overall area could be picked up a bit. And the cabin we stayed in might need fans provided for future hot (global warming) days. The host was delightful.

Wonderful! If you like camping with all the conveniences this is the place to go. The view is spectacular. You can go kayaking, canoeing, windsurfing, etc. It's all free! I just wanted to let you know that there are no extra charges. Best of all, you get privacy. It was great!

This place is beautiful. If you are not in to full-on camping, this place is for you. Bring some plates, utensils, small cooler with a few supplies and you should be good to go. The owner was incredibly friendly, making us feel so welcome. He told us about some hidden gems like a beach and a trail in the area. The domes look beautiful at night. Serene area, no motor boats, we had the whole bay to ourselves. The water was great for swimming. Kids loved jumping off the dock. Our package included the kayaks and canoes, which was a huge plus.

We visited over a wet and windy Thanksgiving weekend. The property offers glamping facilities in fascinating white dome tents with your own bathroom, shower and mini kitchen - plus heating. We were very comfortable, slept well and enjoyed our stay. The only thing to beware of is making sure you find open dining facilities or bring your own food. We found a restaurants nearby the first night - but they were closed the second - and the next nearest was 35mins away. I shouldn’t really complain since it is in a remote area and we came for the beautiful scenery - it’s something I wish I knew - just to set expectations
