We had a wonderful stay at The Dome! The home was warm and cozy. There was plenty of space for our family, and Celine was incredibly responsive the entire time.

This was the perfect spot for us all as we visited Whitewater University! Plenty of space and so thoughtfully furnished. If you find yourself in the area, you can’t do better. Such a beautiful location. Fast responses and so much kind support from our hosts including allowing us a bit of extra time to get checked out – we stayed during the daylight savings time switch! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a wonderful stay at Celine’s home in Whitewater! The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location by the lake was beautiful and made it easy to relax and enjoy the area.
