The Outdoors, With the Comforts
The Bay Area has no shortage of campgrounds — but a tent site means shared facilities, packing gear, and hoping for good weather. Here you get the outdoors without the trade-offs: climate-controlled geodesic domes with real beds and private baths, a heated spa and pool, a full kitchen, gaming room, and outdoor movie nights, all on a private estate.
