Stargazing in a Heated Snow Globe:
The Best of Minnesota Romantic Winter Getaways

Minnesota Romantic Winter Getaways

Whether you’re a Minnesotan looking to have a romantic winter staycation or if you’re visiting from out of state to experience the snow, there is no getaway more romantic than a night in the Snow Globe Igloo in Afton, Minnesota.

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I love unique stays, especially in my home-state of Minnesota!

Afton, Minnesota

This dreamy winter igloo is located in Afton, a small town in Southeast Minnesota (nearly at the Wisconsin border!)

Nearby you can visit Afton State Park or in the spring/summer/fall you could also go to an old fashioned drive in movie at Vali-Hi Drive In just 15 minutes away!

In the winter months, you may just want to stay on-site and enjoy a campfire, the hot tub and Christmas movies on the flat screen TV in your heated dome.

30 Minutes Outside of Minneapolis

This little winter wonderland is just 30 minutes outside of Minneapolis so it’s an easy weekend getaway from the Twin Cities.

Stargaze at night

Crawl under the covers and look up at a starry winter sky! With no city lights around, it’s the perfect place for stargazing.

Tips for your visit:

This Airbnb does not have any kitchenware. So if you bring food, make sure you pack plates, cups and any silverware you need.


Firewood isn’t included so be sure to bring your own!

Self check-in is super easy!

There are other Airbnbs on the property, it still feels private though with the others out of sight.
