We had an amazing experience staying in the diamond dome! We were greeted with freshly baked goodies and local beverages. The dome is very clean and spacious with a fully equipped bathroom (which included a variety of bar soaps home made by the owners!). We were lucky to have a clear sky at night to stargaze outside on the deck. Overall our stay was very pleasent and we highly recommend this experience. We will definitely come back if we can! Thank you Dana and Drew for the warm welcome!

Dana and Drew were lovely hosts, and the space was very secluded and relaxing, while also being close to all the local amenities and attractions. Really beautiful spot and novel accommodations.

Very nice place to stay. Quiet, comfortable excellent location. We toured all the surrounding areas and were happy to make it back to our dome with the peaceful surroundings and lovely sunsets. Will surely return someday. Thanks Drew and Dana.

An amazing experience and our favourite place to stay when we were in NS! The hosts left delicious baked goods for us as well as homemade soaps and local beer and cider. The place was very clean and the bathroom exceeded my expectations. The short walk along the trail to check out the nearby beaver family was a nice activity as was visiting the nearby town of Annapolis Royal which had amazing places to eat. Of course, the best part was the view from our dome, both during the day and the star gazing from bed at night! We will definitely stay again if we are ever out that way.

Fantastic stay at Dana and Drew's little paradise! From the start they were awesome to correspond with and they spoiled us with treats during our stay. They created a cute path through the field behind the domes where you can see a family of beavers in their natural habitat. We had the most relaxing time, and our furry friends too My highlight was the morning coffee on the deck looking at the calm bay. Great location to explore the historic Port Royal and Annapolis as well. We'll definitely be back in the fall to see the colors! Thanks again

We stayed here for 2 nights and 3 days . Loved the place. It was nice and clean and was beyond expectations. Dana and Drew even left us home made delicious muffins and cookies. All amenities are provided by the hosts including things like: make-up remover, shaving kit, and more. We wish we could have stayed longer. I highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be back in the summer to experience this all over again. Thank you Dana & Drew for a wonderful time.

Fantastic stay at Diamdond Dome! From the start, Dana and Drew were so responsive and helpful when we had questions. The dome was much better than we expected. It was very clean, modern and comfortable. Sky view and ocean view on the deck were stunning! We highly recommend this glamping dome. We will definitely come back if we can! Thank you Dana and Drew!
