Glashaus is a stunning glass dome structure designed to seamlessly blend with its natural surroundings. The dome offers 360-degree panoramic views of the majestic New Melones Lake, surrounding hills, and star-studded skies. Wake up to the soothing sounds of nature and fall asleep under a blanket of stars.

The space
At Glashaus, you will experience the ultimate fusion of nature and luxury, a breathtaking work of art nestled among ancient rock formations and overlooking the shimmering waters of New Melones Lake. Immerse yourself in the beauty of the Sierra Nevada foothills and enjoy a one-of-a-kind experience like no other.

**IMPORTANT SUMMER NOTES**
1. The dome does get very warm during the day and was designed for nighttime stargazing and sleeping under the stars. It is not going to be a freezing air-conditioned hotel so please plan outside activities during your stay so you can enjoy Glashaus as it was meant to be. There are blackout curtains, fans and a a new AC that is PG&E powered (no more solar limits) and double what we used to have so there are no limits on use and much colder than before ;)

2. The indoor fireplace is turned off in summer. If you want to have an indoor fire during your stay, advise us before your arrival so the gas and pilot light can be switched on.

3. Outdoor fires are suspended due to extreme wildfire risk. We have added a 50,000 BTU gas fire table for your outdoor fire enjoyment.

ABOUT THE SPACE
Step inside to find a meticulously designed interior that marries contemporary comfort with the serenity of the great outdoors. The interior is thoughtfully furnished with a stylish iron queen-sized bed, luxe bedding, a chic chrome and acrylic bistro set, and a comfortable couch for added seating. A mini fridge with small freezer, microwave and coffee maker are provided for your comfort and convenience. Coffee, tea and sugars are provided. Wrap around black out curtains will shroud you from the summer sun or add privacy for those who desire it. The mid-century modern remote controlled gas fireplace adds warmth and romantic ambiance for use in winter months.

A private deck extends from the dome, providing the perfect setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails, or stargazing. Breathe in the fresh mountain air and relish the tranquility of this unique retreat.

Strategically perched among ancient rock outcroppings, Glashaus offers guests unparalleled privacy and a front-row seat to nature's wonders. Explore the natural beauty of the surrounding area, take a hike on the 20 acres, or simply relax with a soak in the outdoor clawfoot tub perched on the rocks. Towels are provided.

While Glashaus immerses you in nature, it doesn't compromise on modern conveniences. Enjoy a luxurious spa-like detached wet-room bathroom with a shower that overlooks the lake via a floor to ceiling window and electric outlet to keep you comfortable and connected. LED lighting in the dome and bath can be changed with your mood and, if your desire is to bond with nature, indulge in the divine outdoor shower flowing through copper pipes and nestled in the bosom of million-year-old rock formations.

The grounds at night are equally spectacular with lighting in the trees, globe lighting on the deck and path lighting to guide your way at any hour.

If you love cookouts, make use of the BBQ (propane is provided) and dine under the umbrella to stay cool in summer months. There is also a sink for washing up.

After dinner, be sure and enjoy the viewing area with ample seating, chaise loungers, gas fire table and cantilevered umbrella.

Eco-Friendly Design:
Glashaus is designed with sustainability in mind. The dome's triple layer glass construction allows for passive heating and cooling, reducing the environmental impact.

Nearby Attractions:
Glashaus is conveniently located near attractions such as Murphys Main Street, the New Melones Visitor Center, historic Gold Rush towns, Arnold, Bear Valley and of course all of our award-winning local wineries.

Guest access
You'll have the entire 20 acres to yourself.

Other things to note
Enjoy the outdoor shower and tub, gas fire-pit, propane BBQ, dining table for 4+ and comfortable seating located at the viewing platform.
