Escape everyday life in this Geodesic Dome in the tranquil mountains of North Georgia. Nestled on 22 forested acres near Helen, this peaceful retreat is your gateway to hiking adventures and stress-free relaxation in the heart of nature. Situated in the vibrant arts district of historic Sautee Nacoochee, this uniquely designed Airbnb offers the ideal launchpad for outdoor adventurers, vineyard enthusiasts, & those seeking relaxation.

The space
The dome is located in the forest on 22 acres that we call Farfalla. Less than 10 min drive to Helen, Yonah Mtn, Anna Ruby Falls, Lake Unicoi, and so much more! As former adventure travel guides we fell in love with this area because of the great hiking trails and stunning national forest that surrounds Sautee.

Bathroom:
The dome has a detached shared bathhouse with a walk in shower, toilet and sink. The bathhouse is 200 feet away from the dome and requires walking outside and up a semi steep hill. You will have a private outdoor shower and tub attached to the dome deck. We provide shampoo & conditioner! The bathhouse will be shared with 1 other dome on property.

Our Location:
Our Dome is a short drive to the German Alpine town called Helen, GA (5 miles) near Anna Ruby Falls & Unicoi State Park (10 min drive) the epic Yonah Mountain (10 min drive), NoFo Brewery (10 min drive), Yonah Mountain Vineyards (10 min drive) Sweetwater Coffee House (3 min drive) Indian Mound (5 min drive) Lake Burton Beach (15 min drive)Appalachian Trail (20 min drive) Chattahoochee River (5 min drive) & so much more! If you're looking for an outpost to explore what North Gregoria has to offer (hiking, shopping, vineyards, local flare) you've found the right location!

Cooling & heating: *Please read if booking October-March*
The dome has a minisplit heater and AC system, however it is not insulated and can be cold when it’s lower than +/- 34F outside. It has a lovely green house effect during sunny days! It does a pretty good job of heating however it isn't as efficient as a heater you'd find in your home. The air conditioning works really well! Please pack layers and be prepared for inclimate weather. If you have questions please reach out.

Please read:
This experience is not for everyone. The dome is immersed in nature. This means you will see bugs, spiders, and may encounter wild animals including deer, birds, racoons, armadillos, coyotes, and even bear. Please do not leave food outside and be aware of leaving smelly food in the dome.

Farfalla:
The dome is one of four rentals on our 22 acre property. All rentals have about an acre of designated private space surrounding the rental. We intentionally built as far apart as we could and staggered each rental to preserve privacy. All dwellings feel remote and removed from each other. We hope to build a community fire pit on the far side of the land one day where guest can go to meet! Wil, Molly, & our doodle Junie B (the owners) are often on site but out of view. When we are here if you need help with anything we're happy to help but will stay out of your way to respect your space! We love North Georgia and love to give area suggestions!

Guest access
Guests have access to the 22-acre property and are welcome to explore the forest. Guests will also have access to one side of the detached bathhouse shared with 1 other dome. We have white ties on trees to help you identify where our property line is while exploring the land.

Other things to note
-June-Dec we are only able to accommodate 2 night stays during weekends (ex: Fri - Sun) it will give you an error if you try to select a check out or in on Saturday. Message us with any questions!

-This space at max fits two adults and a small child. There is not enough room for an inflatable mattress. Please consider another renting another space in addition to this dome if your group is larger than two adults and one child. Thank you!

-Please note that date changes cannot be made during the cancellation period—thank you for your understanding!

Hi, I’m Molly, and along with my husband Wil, we built Farfalla from the ground up. It’s been a dream of ours since 2017! In 2021 it became our passion project, and we’re grateful for your support of our small family run business. It took us 2 years to get up & running- opened fall 2023. We’re frequently working on new projects around the property, often with our newest family member, our doodle puppy JB. We love it here and hope you will too!
