Embraced by two towering white pines, Chengwatana dome beckons guests to immerse themselves in nature's embrace. Its warm, earthy wooden tones and soothing forest greens seamlessly blend indoor comforts with the tranquility of the great outdoors. Embodying the essence of its namesake, this sanctuary pays homage to the rich heritage of Chengwatana, a name derived from the Ojibwe language, signifying the sacred connection to the majestic White Pines that grace the landscape.
Amidst the serene White Pines, lies the forgotten traces of Chengwatana, an ancient Ojibwe village lost to time. At Sweetbriar Ridge, we humbly recognize the land's storied past, once home to the Ojibwe and Dakota peoples. Alongside the tranquil Snake River, weaving through Chengwatana State Forest, they shared in trade and tradition, shaping the landscape we now embrace with reverence.

Solidago dome, named after the vibrant goldenrod flowers that adorn the prairie, offers a breathtaking panorama of one of Minnesota's most cherished and vanishing ecosystems; the native prairie landscape. Today, merely fragments of Minnesota's prairies endure, accounting for less than 1% of their former expanse. Sweetbriar Ridge stands firm in its pledge to preserve and rejuvenate these grasslands, safeguarding their ecological richness for generations to come.
Indulge in the simple pleasure of a freshly brewed cup of coffee as the morning mist gracefully ascends above the prairie. Witness the tranquil beauty of White-tailed Deer grazing, wild turkeys strutting, and monarch butterflies dancing amidst the summer blooms from our Solidago Glamping Dome.. In winter, experience a serene landscape blanketed in snow, where the delicate whispers of snowflakes drifting over the crust-packed grown evoke a unique sense of quiet and prairie charm.

Nestled along the ridge line sculpted by Bear Creek, Basalt Dome occupies a prime position within the secluded expanse of Sweetbriar Ridge's 56 private acres. Meandering through the heart of the property, Bear Creek, though now a gentle stream, remains a vital lifeline for the surrounding deciduous woods and pine groves. Its presence serves as a magnet for wildlife, inviting a delightful array of birds and creatures to quench their thirst and revel in the natural splendor of this serene sanctuary. Named after the distinctive rock type found in the nearby Snake River, Basalt Dome pays homage to the geological wonders that shape this picturesque landscape.
Bear Creek serves as a tribute to the historic Snake River, known as Kanabec to the Ojibwe people who traversed its waters for travel and trade. Embrace the spirit of exploration during your stay by venturing off-site and immersing yourself in the natural wonders of the area. Enhance your experience by renting one of our paddle boards and setting off to explore the pristine waters of Cross Lake, conveniently located just 5 minutes away.
