Luxury on the Edge of Traverse City, Enjoy Privacy & Tranquility Under the Stars

Enjoy an intimate experience with nature and all the amenities of a luxury resort yet only minutes away from Traverse City's finest restaurants, beaches, wineries, shopping, and golf. Only 3 miles from the Great Lakes Equestrian Show (also called Traverse City Horse Show) and 1.5 miles from Turtle Creek Casino.

Our dome-homes have 780 sq. ft. of living space with majestic views. That's over twice the square footage of an average hotel room. The dome-home is spacious with a 14' tall ceiling. Enjoy a private bathroom complete with a bathtub/shower, vanity, & toilet, kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, & hot plate. AC & Heat.

Geodesic Dome-Home #4 sleeps six adults and features a massive, handcrafted king-size barnwood bed that is positioned to provide incredible views of the surrounding pristine forest. A dividing wall separates the bedroom spaces. On the backside of the wall will be a handcrafted timber frame queen-over-queen bunk bed strong enough to hold four adults (or 5-6 children). There is a private, indoor bathroom and kitchen. The bathroom has a full-size tub and shower.

Outside you will find a second bathtub. This outdoor bathtub is private and positioned so you can enjoy a relaxing bath while listening to the relaxing sounds of nature. In addition, there is a private firepit, barbeque, and hammock. We provide one complimentary bundle of firewood for each day booked.

With 75 acres of private land surrounded by state land on three sides, you will have access to miles of trails for hiking and birding. Pine, cedar, spruce, and cherry trees provide a natural privacy barrier from neighboring accommodations. Neighboring accommodations range from 80' to 200' away. Please be careful driving in or out in the evening as there is an abundance of deer and other wildlife in the area. We seek to provide you with a unique, intimate interaction with nature, yet you are only a few miles away from the best of Traverse City.
During your stay at this cabin, you'll be close to Turtle Creek Casino. The cabin includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchenette.
  • Air-conditioned cabin with kitchenette, washing machine, and patio
  • Free WiFi (speed: 25+ Mbps)
  • 7 minutes by car from Turtle Creek Casino and 9 minutes from Flintfields Horse Park

We absolutely loved our stay in the dome! Everything was beautifully put together and cozy. We loved that we were in a private wooded area but could reach a grocery store quickly when we needed too. We are already planning for our next vacation here!

Perfect get away
Communication with the host was easy and always replied on a timely manner. My girls and I had the best time at our dome, everything we needed. The beds were sooo comfy too. I plan to be back with my fiance just him and I for a weekend away.

Great Glamp-Out near Traverse City
What a great and unique stay! We were on a family road trip with our family of 6 and the Geodesic dome camping was awesome! This kids had an awesome time and really loved this one of kind Glamp site. The hosts have thought of everything and we loved the fire pit and outdoor bathtub. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty extra blankets. We made a day trip to sleeping bear dunes - which was an easy drive from the resort. Would highly recommend and will be back!

Peaceful and Unique Northern Get-Away!
If you've never stayed in the Geo-Dome-Home, here's your chance to experience a new adventure! Included in your stay at Silver Birch Resort are all the amenities of home, and more! Wrapped up in your geodesic dome is a cozy and comfortable bedroom overlooking the woods and a separate personal kitchen/bath dwelling that is all yours. There is a fire pit in each unit for you to use, and even an outdoor bathtub to climb into for relaxation that goes above and beyond! The grounds have oodles of hiking paths, great for photo ops and lots of exploring. My husband and I were able to take our golden retriever with us, and he loved the adventure as well. We also spent a day in Elk Rapids and checked out this great gem! It is a very quaint town and only 10 miles away. We will be recommending this VRBO to our family, friends and neighbors so they can experience it for themselves! Be sure you plan this peaceful and unique adventure for yourself!

We stayed at this property for a week while we were at the Traverse City Horse show which was only 5 minutes away. The place was clean and stocked with everything you could want and more . We enjoyed a beautiful camp fire every evening and had new fire wood brought to us each day. I highly recommend staying here !

The whole stay was incredibly relaxing. Close enough to all the things you’d want to do in Northern Michigan yet secluded enough from the crowds to feel like a true getaway. The kitchen/bath house was beautifully done with thoughtful details. The perfect balance of “camping” and modern comforts.

Dome Sweet Dome
What a cool experience we had staying at the dome home! The site was prepped for our stay with daily firewood, easy check in, clear directions to the unit, and all the necessary info. to make it a smooth start. The dome was so fun to stay in with its clear shot view from the bed to the woods! There were plenty of bedding options, bountiful linens, kitchen supplies, and barbecue grill accessories. The place is brand new, so nothing was lacking. The deck adjoining the kitchenette/bath was well built, an outdoor tub with privacy fence was available but we didn’t use it, the fire pit has 4 chairs, there’s a hammock for napping, an outdoor table for coffee, and indoor dining for 4. Both nights were cool so we didn’t need the a/c that much, but it worked great when we did. We really enjoyed everything about the rental and will definitely book again. Rob is a great host that responds immediately, which is very refreshing and professional. We have nothing negative to say about our entire experience. Would highly recommend the dome home!

Summer family trip
We had a great time in the dome! We were looking for something different and found this neat place tucked in the woods. The kids (ages 7 to 19) loved the firepit, hammock, woods and local beaches. The owner recommended Elk Rapids sandbar beach and it was perfect. Kids swam and played volleyball and floatsd down the creek. Dinners at out door patios in Traverse City and Elk Rapids. Grilled on site one night. Coffees on the deck in the morning, deer peeking at us from the woods. Would recommend! Plan on returning for a future vaca.
