If you are looking for a place for a romantic getaway, a place to relax, or a safe place to escape on your own, look no further. I started following WV Glamping Domes in August 2021 and took advantage of the priority booking by purchasing a gift certificate, and I am glad I did. My husband and I stayed in the Meadowlark Dome this past weekend, and it was well worth the wait! Pictures and words could never describe the beauty of the property and the view from our dome. It is breathtaking!!! The view could never get old. The mountains, the peaceful sunrise, picture perfect sunsets, and the majestic night sky are like sitting in the middle of a Thomas Kinkade painting. The dome has a comfy, romantic feel with all the necessities of a hotel without losing the sense of camping in the great outdoors. The outdoor grill and indoor induction cooktop provided in the kitchenette allowed us to enjoy homemade meals during our stay without missing any time in the picturesque landscape. The heated bed is a nice touch on a cool night, and the linens were soft and plush, adding to the coziness of the dome. The indoor hot tub overlooking the mountains was a perfect touch to our romantic weekend, and the warm farm fresh breakfast delivered to our dome was amazing, the best I have ever had! The Adirondack chairs and solo fire pit are perfectly placed facing the mountains and provide a warm view. Sipping coffee in the morning while watching the sunrise brought a peace to my soul and a reminder of the simplicity of life that is needed but often forgotten in the hustle and bustle of life. Timothy’s top-notch hospitality and communication were nothing short of extraordinary. Oh, and the cider……. Timothy’s homemade apple cider was beyond delicious.
We could have spent our whole time taking in the beauty at the Meadowlark dome and never regretted it, but we decided to rent the Vanerhall Venice roadster during our visit. Hands down, it was one of the most incredible times we have had on the road. Timothy went above and beyond by explaining how everything worked, how it handles, and recommendations on where to go. We started with brunch at the General Lewis Inn in Lewisburg, which was delicious, and then adventured to a quaint covered bridge. We continued to Monongahela National Forest to see the Falls of Hills Creek. I never knew how beautiful West Virginia is, and the roadster was the perfect way to experience the countryside’s beauty and the mountains’ twists and turns.
I am glad we spent two nights because one would have been a tease and not enough time to soak in the beauty. I wish we could have stayed longer, but we will definitely return to share this experience with our Son.
Thank you, Timothy, for opening up your property and sharing your piece of paradise in West Virginia with us!!!!

Timothy and Angela nailed it! My husband and I went there for a little trip away and it was just perfect! The view was breathtaking and we loved that it was so private. All we could hear was the birds and the wind. The cabin we stayed at was FoxyRidge and it was perfect! It was cozy and had all the amenities we would need. We tried to work the grill and had some difficulties but we texted them and they texted us right back. We hope to go again some day.
Our stay at the Meadowlark dome was absolutely perfect! The Bluetooth audio system was a fantastic touch, allowing us to enjoy our favorite music throughout the dome. The hot tub provided the perfect way to unwind and relax, and the fire pit was excellent for cozy evening gatherings. We loved the flexibility of cooking on the grill or using the hot plate when it rained. The individually controlled A/C and heat ensured we were comfortable at all times. The peaceful surroundings, with other campers far enough away, made our stay feel private and serene. Firewood was provided, which was a great convenience, and the basic kitchen utensils, including a wine opener and a can opener, were very handy. The hammock overlooking the mountains was a favorite spot, and the picnic table allowed us to enjoy meals outside in the fresh air. The dome had plenty of natural light during the day and dimming lights for a cozy nighttime ambiance. The host was incredibly attentive to any and all concerns, addressing them immediately and ensuring our stay was perfect. We will definitely return to this wonderful glamping spot!
This was my second stay at WV Glamping Domes and once again everything was perfect! The domes have all of the necessities that you may need during your stay including bedding, towels, shampoo/ conditioner and body wash. The waterfront location of The Manor made for peaceful mornings and evenings, and we even got to see a few beavers having breakfast! The hosts are attentive, available, and highly responsive. I love that the domes are dog friendly and the property has plenty of places to explore. We have thoroughly enjoyed both of our stays here and will recommend a trip here to anyone! Thank you for creating such a wonderful experience in a beautiful location!
"Firelight" is the perfect romantic weekend trip! The dome and tubs were incredibly clean upon arrival, and all basic necessities were provided - towels, washcloths, robes, shampoo/conditioner/body wash/bubble bath. There are 2-person sets of plates, bowls, utensils, champagne flutes, and goblet style wine glasses on-site. The mini fridge is the style that includes a mini freezer. If you're from way out of state like us, it's good to note that you don't need to haul in all your basic food. There are two small grocery stores only a few minutes away you can stop at. We walked one of the trails, and there were cows along one of the fences that were adorable. We also kayaked the creek, which was a great little adventure! A few notes: -There is no external outlet or light to the dome on the side with the fire pit area, so make sure to set up your fire while there is still some light out so you don't trip while holding sticks. -This dome gets HOT in the summer during the day. We stayed in it in July, and even with two A/C units and fans it would be uninhabitable for the elderly, pregnant, or very young from 1pm-5pm while the sun is directly overhead. The thermostat on the wall was reading 98° at 2pm. That being said, this is completely expected when staying in a vinyl bubble! We planned fun excursions during those hours each day. Lost World Caverns, Old World Libations winery, and Hawk Knob cidery are all within driving distance of the domes! Outside of those hours, the temperatures were PERFECT inside. The only thing I would recommend changing out for the theme of this dome are the ceiling overhead light bulbs. The wall lights are a soft flickering orange, but the overheads are bright white. Turning them on at night takes away the romantic softness of the dome. Yellow lighting would set a more relaxed mood. Fun fact - if you're wondering if a free-standing movie projector screen fits between the tubs, it does! We brought ours, which is adjustable to fit different room widths. The WiFi was strong enough for streaming without any issues. We loved our stay. It was the best weekend trip we've had in years. We'll definitely be back!
Spectacular views all around you! Beautiful sunrises and sunsets you can view from the dome, the campfire or the hot tub. Whether you stay in the Foxyridge Dome one night or several nights, you will not be disappointed. I would also like to note that the owners are wonderful and friendly hosts who will make your experience unforgettable! This was an amazing adventure and we will be back to enjoy it again in the future!
We stayed in Meadowlark for 2 nights to celebrate my birthday. What an amazing experience! The dome and views were absolutely stunning and we enjoyed our time kayaking and exploring the beautiful creek and property. Napping in the hammock was an added bonus and loved watching deer and fireflies in the evening. I cannot wait to come back!!!
