This was a great place to stay when visiting our daughter at GCSU. A quick 15-minute drive to downtown Milledgeville, a relaxing, quiet setting and much better than staying at a hotel!
This was a great place for our Family Weekend at GCSU. What made it better was that we could bring ot yellow lab. Very pet friendly with lots of space for him to roam. Will definately be back.
We enjoyed our first experience of glamping in this dome very much. It really is out in the middle of a field in the middle of a forest so it’s a little bit scary. The dome itself is in good shape and everything in it is very nice and new. The mattress was comfortable. The walkway down to the dome is a little bit difficult with roller suitcase. It is large round gravel. The street number from the road is very difficult to see. Very small. We were there through a very loud heavy rain storm and it would’ve been nice to have a good battery operated lantern or Emergency candles and matches.
