When searching for VRBO's most unique stays, you'll definitely spot some geodesic dome houses among the rental options.

Along with other extraordinary stays like popular treehouses, these completely round homes are a vacationer's dream.

A magical example of one is tucked away in the forest of Grassy Creek, NC, and called the "unforgettable" Private Geodesic Dome. The 4.8-star property can be rented for $208 a night on VRBO.

The house sits on over 40 acres near the North Carolina-Virginia state line right in the middle of rolling hills, which you can enjoy views of as you soak in the house's private jacuzzi. The location also has its very own dazzling pond.

The simply unique architecture of the house is seen in every aspect — from the solid cherry wood paneling on the exterior to the giant curved ceilings and pentagonal windows within.

Inside the house and up a winding staircase, there are two bedrooms with a total of three beds that sleep up to five people. There's also another staircase in between the rooms that lead to an "observatory" where you can escape for gorgeous a view of the NC sky.
