You've likely stayed in cabins, tents, and cottages, but have you ever stayed in a bubble? You can do just that at this unusual Airbnb in Ontario, which will have you waking up in a giant, transparent dome.

The "Lakeside Bubble Dome Tent" is part of Camp Adelaide and is located in Haliburton, about three hours from Toronto. The unique tent sleeps four people and comes with breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

Now just because it is a tent, it doesn't mean you have to "rough it". The luxe dome features a queen bed, comfy armchairs, and even a fireplace for cool nights. The second part of the bubble has a double mattress for another couple to sleep on.

The structure sits right on the water, and you can take in the scenery from inside the dome or from the wrap-around deck. At night, you can gaze into the starry sky as you drift off to sleep.

The rental is complete with a private dock and canoe or kayak so you can paddle your way around the lake. There are also up to 360 acres of forest and meadows to explore.

Ontario has several other unique rentals available. You can sleep in a floating plane at this new spot, or relax under a canopy of glowing clouds at this beach house.
