    I must say, your journey into creating these luxury geodome experiences is truly fascinating! Your dedication to understanding every aspect of your craft, from design to construction, is inspiring. What has been the most unexpected or unique challenge you've encountered while working on your geodome projects, and how did you overcome it?

    • @monicasoriano8581

      I agree! The cost of building a glamping geodome can vary widely depending on several factors, including the location, size, materials, amenities, and whether you choose to purchase a pre-built geodome or build one from scratch. Each geodome project is unique, and the challenges faced can vary based on location and design. The key is to plan carefully, use quality materials, and have contingency plans in place to address unexpected weather conditions effectively.

    Hey Rob! Great video. I’m the social media manager for Vero Mountain. Just wanted to mention that if you need any of these curtain rods for your domes in Gatlinburg, I can put you in touch with the designer! Justin Clark, a welder-fabricator from Mars Hill NC came up with the idea, design, and finished product of these custom curtain rods for the owners of Vero Mountain! It was also his idea to curve them to the dome for more floor space 😊 I’ll let him know how much you liked them!

      My friends did an Airbnb with these things in the Santa Barbara area and they got busted for the deck. They blew off the county and the county came back and gave them notice that they would have to pay $1000 per day in fines if they didn't remove it. my girlfriend was making $10,000 per month on Airbnb and her income went to zero for this very reason.

Honestly, I think ours is better laid out, more open, with a full kitchen including stove, a bigger shower/bathroom, etc. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post a link to our listing but if you reply to this saying it's ok, I will.

    I don’t believe he spent close to 250,000 for the set up of the dome the deck and the interior, that’s insane! My family has stayed in similar set ups as this and they paid a quarter of that price I don’t understand even if he did pay that much and he’s not exaggerating the price why would you pay that much ? I’m sorry just doesn’t seem right to me.

  • @Riceman-o1p
    @Riceman-o1p 6 місяців тому +1

    One aspect to these geodesic dome's is that if two or three people sleep in them with everything closed up tight your breathing will add a lot of humidity and if it is cold outside you will wake up to wet walls everywhere from the condensation. If it gets really cold you will wake up to condensation dripping on your face. If you eat in there you will wake up to mice and they will chew through that canvas to get inside. You can do a lot to help keep the bugs out but you will probably not succeed. Spider bites are very common. I lived in one of these and also the canvas goes to hell in a matter of years. And that pretty see-through acrylic will also go to hell in very short order if the sun shines on it. These things are super cute when you first install them and they turn into a piece of crap in very short order. Also be careful with your jurisdiction as you are supposed to have a permit for the deck and any plumbing and in California you will get busted and you will have to tear it all down. I specialize in off grid power systems and I know about 15 people who have been busted by the county and they had to remove them and their Airbnb investment Went to shit overnight.

    Wow what timing. I was looking at one of those domes for a glamping site that I'm building. I'm super curious about items that create heat, that are close to the walls (the fireplace, toaster) if they'll eventually damage the walls? Also want to know how long that material lasts and what kind of upkeep is to be expected.

    • @Riceman-o1p
      @Riceman-o1p 6 місяців тому

      And also in your area there is a good chance you're gonna need a permit for that plumbing and the deck. My friends got busted for doing it and they ended up having to rip everything out after spending many thousands of dollars. I lived in one for five years in the mountains of Santa Barbara. so they are pretty cool in a moderate climate. Yours is a whole different story. Also be careful of the condensation buildup on the inside because if you breathe and sleep in them for a period of time you will wake up and everything is wet from condensation.
