Sandstone Rustic Retreat

Tanya and Cale were warm and welcoming, the property is lovely and our dome was beautiful and so clean! I would book here again in a heartbeat. My daughter and I enjoyed the Gathering Place, delicious coffee, conversation with Tanya and Cale and just the overall atmosphere. Thank you, we will be back!

Both hosts were so kind! We sat and talked with them about the history of the area and they gave great recommendations. The area was incredibly beautiful and peaceful. Highly recommended if you are looking for something different from your normal hotel room!

This beautiful stay saved us from the disastrous stay we were having at Chula Vista Resort. We ended our booking early with that place and reached out to The Dooms to turn our Dells experience around. They communicated to us quickly and made space available with a quick turn over from their last guest so we could check in that night. They were so friendly and flexible. The location has a great dock for fishing, kayaking and more. The views were amazing and two baby deer were mozzing about. It was peaceful and quiet. The private and communal fire pits were nice. Supplies we may not have thought to bring were made available in the main building. Even in the summer heat we were comfortable. I felt very welcomed and cared after. I will be returning to see the dooms in other seasons. One night wasn’t long enough so stay as long as you can and enjoy the closeness of the Dells when you’re ready. 10/10!!!

My husband and I had the most incredible midweek getaway at Sandstone Rustic Retreat! It was a somewhat late Father's Day trip, and I was using the last bit of my vacation time for the year. Tanya and Cale are amazing hosts—so accommodating and thoughtful. Tanya helped us with dining recommendations in town and arranged everything we needed during our stay. We had planned to kayak, but the high flow rate from recent rain prevented us from getting on the river. That didn’t stop Tanya and Cale from helping us find alternative activities like fishing and hiking, which was much appreciated! The dome glamping experience was out of this world. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, and staying in the dome during a thunderstorm was unforgettable! We had a front-row seat to an incredible lightning show while enjoying some music. We will absolutely be back! Highly recommend this retreat for anyone looking to unwind in nature with exceptional hosts!

We loved our stay at the glamping dome! It was so much fun, the hosts were incredible and the space was wonderful. We stayed for two nights and it definitely was not enough time. I recommend staying for at least 3 nights if not longer. There is so much to see and so much to do that you need some time to take it all in. From the main gathering house, to the outdoor space, the dome itself was beautiful and the surrounding area was amazing. We are already planning to come back next year. If you are hesitant about coming, don't be, it was worth every penny!

Tanya and Cale have done an excellent job with the property. There's plenty of privacy with the domes, fun atmosphere down by the dock bar, and great positioning on the river for a relaxing paddle. It's a perfect getaway and is a very short drive into the Dells. Tanya also has great recommendations on food! Highly recommend!!!

We really enjoyed our stay in the dome! It was clean, comfy, and perfectly cozy (loved the twinkle lights at night). The A/C keeps things nice and cool during the day, and at night you can open the windows to hear nature all around you. The view from inside was serene, but the short walk down to the river brought even more amazing views. I could've sat on the dock for hours. We took the Upper Dells tour, and it was crazy to know that our AirBNB was just on the other side of the big island in the river. Definitely take advantage of the coffee in the gathering house (it was great) and bring it down to the river in the morning for the perfect start to your day. On top of everything else, the hosts were extremely friendly and responsive. If we ever come back to the area we will definitely be staying here again!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Sandstone. Cale and Tonya were great hosts and getting a chance to connect with other guests at the gathering place was an added bonus. We paddle boarded the river, enjoyed the local downtown, and relaxed at the cabin. Overall a 10/10 anniversary trip.

I would highly recommend staying here! The cabin provided a peaceful and relaxing getaway and the property was beautiful! Tanya was a really responsive and helpful host with providing clear instructions and local recommendations. The cabin was so cute and cozy! I would highly recommend staying here and hope to return again!

This was an amazingly beautiful and welcoming place to stay! The hosts treat you like family from the start and have thought of every little detail and extras they provide complimentary! They were responsive immediately when I messaged and had the sweetest dogs/stories to share! I will be back with my family even! Unless I’d like to enjoy that cozy dome myself again. Thanks for everything!
