Private Domes
Domes are closed for the season! Please join us in Fall/Winter 2021

What are these magical dome structures?

Nestled on a private patio outside the Historic Koltes Lumberyard Building  the “Cozy Domes” create a magical drinking and dining ambiance within the comfort of your own little bubble.  Whether you are reserving for the ultimate in social distancing or simply trying something new, the Cozy Domes are here for you to enjoy!  The domes are 16-feet in diameter with a clear door and 3 windows and feature a 9-foot farm table, 8 – 10 chairs, heat, tivoili lights, and a Bluetooth speaker. 

Reservations are accepted at the following time slots*:

Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday – 5:30-7:30pm

Friday & Saturday: 11:00am-1:00pm, 2:00-4:00pm, 5:00-7:00pm, 7:30-9:30pm

Sunday: 11:00am-1:00pm, 4:00-6:00pm

*some exceptions apply for holidays and special events

Food, drinks, and amenities

Full food and beverage service is available in the domes. Our menus can be found at www.thelonegirl.com/menu.  No need to order anything ahead as a server will be present throughout your dome experience with us. 

A Bluetooth speaker is available for you to play all your favorite tunes.  Make sure your devices are charged and ready to go when you arrive and we’ll show you how to pair your device. Cozy Domes will also have lighting.

The domes are heated, but let’s be realistic, all that’s separating you from Mother Nature is breathable canvas and vinyl windows so it may still be a little chilly.   We will have fleece blankets available, but please be prepared and dress like you live in Wisconsin.  If you don’t live here, that means boots, gloves, jackets, scarves, and hats of the winter variety (read: fuzzy).  The more you drink, the warmer it gets – Only in Wisconsin!

What’s included?

Each reservation is for two hours. Bring games, write letters, read books, plan adventures or just sit and enjoy the company of those around you. The dome is yours to do what you’d like. Please note, we cannot offer time extensions as we need time between guests to adequately clean and reset.  Of course, no one will stop you from booking 2 time-slots…

What do I need to bring?  

We’ve already covered most of this, but in case you’re a skimmer here’s your refresher:

• Warm cozy clothing like coats, gloves, boots, scarves, and hats
• Something to entertain yourselves like games or gifts.  Good conversations will do if all else fails. 
• A charged, Bluetooth enabled device with some tunes on it.  You’ll want some good music to pair with all that good conversation you’re going to have.
• Your pod…like, your people. We request that you make your reservation with 8 or fewer guests from the same household.  

What not to bring

• Your pets. We know they’re part of the same household, but please leave your doggos, cool cats and kittens, fish, lizards, and other domestic critters at home.
• Cigarettes- sorry, smoking isn’t allowed in the domes.  
• Outside alcohol or food.  Don’t worry, we’ll have plenty available.  
• Illegal drugs- it’s all fun and games until it isn’t.  Please leave your substances at home.

What does this amazing experience cost me?

For $50 you can reserve a dome for one to eight guests for two hours.  No, it’s not half price if you only bring four people or you only stay for one hour, but nice try.

Any food and beverage you purchase is in addition to the $50 reservation fee. Pricing for all our menu items can be found online at www.thelonegirl.com/menu.

Other Things to Know

• What if I show up late? Don’t do that!  We’re sorry, but we can’t offer time extensions as we need that time to clean and sanitize between guests.  Please show up on time for your reservation so you can enjoy your full two hours.
• Do you clean and sanitize them? Of course. We make sure that all surfaces are cleaned and sanitized between guests. Additionally, we ask guests to comply with current government regulations and guidelines when at The Lone Girl to make sure that everyone is able to enjoy this experience.
• I’m here at Lone Girl, how do I get to the Cozy Domes?  When you arrive for your reservation, please check in with the host, they will take you to your dome.
• Can I get in and out easily if needed?  Yes, we have friends with tiny bladders, too.  No problem, there is a zippered access door for you to easily get in and out as needed. 
• What if I need to cancel or change my reservation? Due to the limited availability, we do not offer refunds. If you need to change your reservation, please call 608-850-7175 and speak with a manager.
• Can I book it for more than two hours? If you would like to book two consecutive time slots on the same day you are welcome to do so, just book two reservations.  If you elect to do this, you’ll be able to stay in the dome for five hours (instead of two) and will receive a $25 credit on your bill that day.
• Can I book it for more than ten guests?  Current regulations limit these domes to 10 or fewer guests.  Sorry, we can’t smoosh two domes together.
