We discovered Milledgeville while visiting our daughter in Savannah. We fell in love with our 100-acre wooded paradise, perfect for a secluded getaway. Passionate about preserving its natural beauty, we designed our unique domes to blend fun—like our daughters’ favorite Totoro theme—with minimal impact. As dog lovers, we’re thrilled to welcome your furry friends. Escape to whimsy with us!
