Beautiful Savannah home in perfect location

We loved our stay in this beautiful home located in the heart of the historic district. The home is located on one of the most recognized street in Savannah, within walking distance of downtown shops and restaurants, parks and many historic sites. The home has been updated with modern amenities combined with historic details. It was very clean and fully stocked with kitchen, bath and bedding supplies. The private garden with fountain was a wonderful place to relax with family. The host was very responsive and could not have been more accommodating. I look forward to staying in this home the next time we visit Savannah.

Beautiful place!

We absolutely adored this rental. Perfect location and so beautiful. This place was pristine and quiet. The owners are so helpful as well. We went with two other couples and hope to return. The beds are so comfortable! All three couples commented on the comfort of the beds. By far, my favorite stay in Savannah!

Great property overall. Quiet street within walking distance to shopping on Bull Street. Both bathrooms are upstairs which is awkward for the person staying on the parlour level but certainly doable for close friends! Would definitely stay here again. The private courtyard is fantastic!

Wonderful property!

This house provided such a beautiful experience for our first time in Savannah. The home itself is beautiful but the location it’s in makes it even more noteworthy. The beds are all extremely comfortable and the home is spotless. Just a short walk to one of the trolley stops puts you on a tour through all of Savannah’s hot spots, without having to drive! We would love to stay in this space again, thank you Francis for your hospitality!

Wonderful Weekend

We had a fabulous weekend in Savannah! A family wedding brought us to Savannah. We knew a VRBO would be better for our family than a hotel. The location was fabulous. The unit was super clean and comforting. We do wish there was at least a half bath on the main floor, but we made it work. Francis was great to work with!

Awesome home

We stayed here for three nights in February and really enjoyed the home and the location. The off street parking and courtyard are a huge asset. The owners take a lot of pride in this property and it shows. We have stayed at other properties in Savannah and this is the best. The location is good and in a secure area. My wife gets up and walks every morning and never felt insecure or threatened. We hope to stay here again when we return.

beautiful home. perfectly located to everything, 20 - 25 min walk to riverfront area. 20 min walk to forsythe park. numerous restaurants in neighborhood. great parking out back (1 ford explorer and 1 smaller veh fit) 2 ford edges will fit but tight). owner great communicator gives numerous excellent suggestions on dining and things to see. all bedrooms great size and comfy matresses. 1st floor bath smaller but very usable, 2 upstairs baths large. kitchen has everything you need, smaller fridge but holds a bage of ice and plenty of room for food. would rent again anything this person owns. highly recommend

Better to visit in cooler months

If you visit in the summer, be mindful that courtyard (while lovely) will be too hot for hosting a get together. Also AC thermostat had strict instructions to not set below 73 degrees. Downstairs was fine. Upstairs was HOT. Also if sleeping in the two back bedrooms bring eye/sleep masks bc rooms are BRIGHT at night due to street lamps and sheer curtains. The master suite with en-suite bathroom has a small bed — there should be a king bed in that room. Also house is lacking a powder room on first floor so that is awkward. Also tv in kitchen had spotty reception. Overall, house was ok. Nice location.

Finally, a VRBO that not only met expectations, but EXCEEDED them. Beautiful home, well-decorated, comfortable in every way. Best street in town. Did not move cars during stay. Wonderful walks and occasional Ubers. Owners missed nothing on this place and provided superb suggestions. Clary's for breakfast is less than a block....unbelievable. What a delight!

Lovely Home on a Lovely Street

We had THE best time staying in Savannah! This beautiful home on the famously titled “Prettiest Street in America” was the cherry on top of the icing! This home is cozy and very clean. The courtyard is absolutely stunning. Jones Street is such a beautiful street and within walking range to all the various squares in Savannah, Forsythe Park, and River Street! There is a wonderful, little cafe two blocks down from the apartment. We had a massive breakfast there, and then enjoyed browsing through old books at a quaint bookstore across the street from the restaurant. We had tons of room for 6 people living in the apartment for several days. Well stocked with toilet paper, kitchen ware, towels, etc. It is also dog friendly. My two little Dachshunds seemed comfortable in the apartment and also enjoyed walking the streets in beautiful Savannah. On our last day, we drive to Tybee Island, which was less than 30 minutes away from our apartment. When we got home we used the washer/dryer to clean clothes. Detergent and laundry sheets were readily available. Our host, Francis, stayed in touch regularly. We also met Emerson, a very friendly gentleman:) I plan to come back for future stays here at this location. 3 days in Savannah is not enough:) So grateful I found this gem:) Highly recommend!

Couples Savannah Trip

Wonderful time and couldn't have asked for a better location. We preplanned our excursions and all the places we wanted to go and do beforehand. Everything was within a 20 minute walk from the home which is critical because the parking at all the locations would have been extremely difficult. All 3 couples have nothing but good to say about the residence.

A Perfect Place in the South Historic District

Our stay was perfect in every way. Three couples shared three king bedrooms and three baths in one of the lovliest neighborhoods in Savannah. The neighborhood is quiet, the streets are tree-lined and hung with Spanish moss. Parking was never a problem. The house is nicely appointed and comfortable. We enjoyed the courtyard during the afternoons and played games at the kitchen table each evening. Francis and Emerson hit a perfect balance between history and comfort in their place without sacrificing either. They were also attentive to be certain we had everything we needed. We will defiitely return.
