Perfect addition to the astral. I little extra weight but not bad while lifting to the center pole but well worth the effort. Love how it seems to actually help cool out on hot days. The LED interior light adds to the looks at night. Can’t wait to get this up in the winter it’s really going to be awesome.

We built our nonprofit glampground around 8 Stargazer Tents from Wilderness Resource — and they’ve truly been the perfect choice. As an educational farm and working nonprofit (Hungry World Farm), we were looking for something that blended affordability, durability, and visual impact. These tents hit all three.

Our guests love the “yurt-style” glamping experience, especially the ability to walk fully around the tents (unlike bell tents), and the interior space is ideal — easily fits two queen beds or a king + futon with room to spare. The 360° windows allow for great airflow, and the clear ceiling panel adds a magical touch that guests rave about.

From a business standpoint, these tents are a game-changer:

They allow for affordable nightly rates while maintaining high occupancy, because the style is just unique enough to draw glamping-curious guests who don’t want to pay $300+ for domes or traditional yurts.

The ROI is exceptional — a basic setup with a bed, solar lights, and a few pieces of repurposed furniture makes these units rental-ready at a fraction of the cost of comparable structures.

Unlike domes or traditional yurts, you don’t need a permit to set them up and start renting.

We’ve tested other tent styles (including standard $400 tents with similar capacity), and they simply don’t rent as well. Small tents get passed over — folks would rather bring their own unless you’re offering something truly special. These tents are that “something special.”

Durability-wise, they've been phenomenal. We’ve had them up through Illinois thunderstorms, high winds, and even full winters (we just brushed snow off occasionally). One tent even survived a massive oak tree falling on it — the tent was dented down but no rips, no broken poles, and the inside was unharmed. That kind of durability gives us serious peace of mind.

We’ve had one loop break in over a year, but there are backups built in. Pro tip: only allow guests to use one of the two doors, so if the zipper gets damaged, you’ve got a backup.

I won’t get too deep into the financials here (trying not to give away all our secrets to other glamp-grounds near Chicago 😉), but if you’re a landowner or farm looking to earn income through glamping, these tents are the best investment we’ve made. They’ve directly supported our mission of ecosystem restoration, food bank donations, and regenerative agriculture education.

Happy to chat with prospective buyers. Just search Hungry World Farm and you’ll find us.

Amazing addition to the astral tent , It slips over easily enough during setup but transform’s the entire look of the astral Tent and feeling. I recently set mine up in my woods and IT really helps with holding off the heat thank you. I wish i could up load a picture IT looks that cool

Let me start off by saying that not having to deal with with tent poles is AMAZING! Just roll this puppy out and blow it up. I took my galaxy to Electric Forest and it was absolutely perfect. Privacy when you need it and the big doors and windows make it very inviting when you dont. Many memories were made and we will absolutely be using it next year!

I was worried that this would have one of those blowers that keeps the whole thing inflated but thats not the case. Inflate it once, close the cap, and you are set. Very cool system and it makes setup ez.

I just installed my Lotus Belle 13 Stargazer and wanted some extra protection from the trees and weather. My second night we had a pretty big rain storm and I'm sure it helped repel the water and kept me dry and I could see the rain on the fly above. Its awesome and really happy with the performance and construction.

Pleasantly surprised by how big it feels considering the diameter. Plenty of space for my family on a week long camping trip.

Very cool tent. Easy setup for the amount of space you get.

Fast shipping and a very cool tent. Love how easy it is to set up!

I already have the 16 foot stargazer Astral tent and thought I'd give this one a shot. Setup is super easy and not having a center pole made a much bigger difference space-wise than I thought it would. I used the electric inflator I had in my car for my paddle board and it was up in no time. Another awesome tent from this company and I couldnt be happier!

First off, you need at least 2 people but the more help you can get the faster it will go. It took my wife and me about a week to assemble, working a few hours on it every day. The instructions are very helpful so pay attention or you'll be kicking yourself for trying to cut corners - just trust me on this one. We were shopping around for a geo dome for a while and this was the best price for the size we were able to find. The quality is great and once fully assembled the frame is rock solid. The covering for it is VERY heavy duty, and the massive door made furnishing it a breeze. We are both overjoyed with our dome and how helpful their customer service is. 10/10

10/10 experience all around— fast shipping & great quality. Definitely a show stopper, thank you!

We purchased two Astrals last year. A 13’ and a 16’. We offer Glamping at Boomtown Rustic Camp in western mountains of Maine. These tents are perfect. Our guests love them. Visiting from ten different countries the tents are spacious and comfortable. One couple was from the military in Israel. They were very impressed with the quality of the tent. When I explained they were made by veterans they stated they knew there was a story behind the tent judging by the craftsmanship. We took our tents down storing for the winter. Recently putting them up for the season and look to be in wonderful shape. When I had a question concerning care I simple sent an email the company emailed the very same day. Super responsive. I highly recommend Wilderness Resource and am considering their geodesic dome for the future. Thank you

It’s Beautiful love the video and drinking my wine looking at the stars
