Leave the noise from the world behind and tune in to the natural world with this 2 night stay for you and a guest in a Galaxygazer Dome at Glamping Eco-Retreat Glen Oro Farm in Oro-Medonte, Ontario!
They have created an Eco-Retreat to focus on several key elements - sustainability, the importance of our natural environment, connecting with friends and family, and simply experiencing the world around us which often is muted by the rush of our daily lives. Slow things down… enjoy the simple pleasures of life in the country and tap in to your deeper self.
All of their accommodations feature a King sized bed and are designed for 1-2 people. Having a fire is something that they find quintessential to camping in Canada, so outside of each accommodation is a private campfire pit for your careful use and enjoyment. Inside your unit you will find them heated by either an environmentally friendly wood-pellet stove or more traditional wood stove. They also have a cedar barrel sauna which is heated by a Finnish wood-stove - a sign-up board outside the sauna door allows guests to privately book their own sessions. When you get out on a clear night, its incredible just how many stars are in the sky - there is nothing like the perspective influencing idea of staring up into the night and realizing that what you’re looking at is 3D and we really are just one small part of the universe. The Galaxygazer Dome features an integrated loft space with a king sized bed directly under the skylight, so you’re staring straight up into the Milky Way while fading off to sleep. The Dome is also outfitted with an ensuite bathroom,with stylish aromatic cedar showers and farmhouse style apron sinks, and because of the environmental focus of their Eco-Retreat, they use environmentally friendly chic composting toilets.
