About this property

The Sarah Elizabeth House on beautiful Jones St w/ Private Courtyard

Welcome to the Sarah E Krenson house built in 1873, a named house on Savannah's historical register, on beautiful sought after Jones St. Located in the downtown historic district, take a step back into a time seeped in Southern history along cobblestone streets with ancient live oak trees draped in Spanish moss.
The house abounds in original details of the period and has also been lovingly updated with modern amenities, the best of both worlds! The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need to create a large family feast. The adjacent dining room seats 8 and can easily be arranged to seat more. The first floor also has a formal living area, half bathroom and a sitting area in the kitchen, plenty of room to spread out. A lovely private courtyard is right off the kitchen area, with a fountain and seating for 10. The perfect spot for morning coffee before heading out for a stroll through all Savannah has to offer and a place to return to and relax for an evening glass of wine.
The second and third floors consist of 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms each. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and 2 are en suites, a unique feature not often found in large historic homes.

This location has been captured in many wonderful movies such as Disney's "Lady and the Tramp", "Glory" and the iconic "In the Garden of Good and Evil".
With 3000 square feet of living space, Jones street on the top 10 list from USA Today's "Prettiest streets in America" , you can make a memorable experience with friends and family at the Sarah Elizabeth House on Jones.

Due to the coronavirus, we are taking extra care to disinfect and clean thoroughly for your safety.

Beautiful home. Great location. Clean, spacious, and even has a kitchen welcome basket! Super easy check in and out. Host replied quickly when I sent a message with some questions the week prior. Parking was available on the street but we chose the Liberty Deck which was a very short walk. Restaurants close by and delicious!

Spacious home with excellent amenities

We were in Savannah for our son's wedding and our family stayed at the house. The house was spacious, clean and well-appointed. Everyone loved their rooms. There was plenty of space for the groomsmen to come and get ready at the house. And our daughter (who happens to be named Sarah Elizabeth) was able to make the wedding cake in the kitchen! The location cannot be beat. We walked everywhere.

Cousins/Girls Trip

From the start of booking the Sarah Elizabeth house, to the end of our vacation, we could not have been happier. Tim and Beth were wonderful. The home did not disappoint us at all. It has all the conveniences of staying at home, is centrally located to enjoy everything about Savannah, and the house was spotless. I would definitely rent this home again.

Absolutely Wonderful Stay

We rented this property for a stay during the weekend of our daughter's wedding. The home is beautiful in a lovely neighborhood (our Uber driver said it is the most beautiful street in Savannah) and close to everything (quick Uber ride or 20 minute walk to riverfront). The home has tons of character and room for everyone. The bathrooms are beautifully restored and the downstairs areas with living room, dining room, renovated kitchen with sitting area were awesome for gathering, The quaint, private patio was an added touch. Timothy was very responsive and super nice to work with. We highly recommend and would definitely visit again!

Best stay in Savannah!

From the moment we arrived until we checked out, we had everything we needed at this rental! Comfortable bedding, spacious and well appointed rooms, well-stocked and we’ll-equipped kitchen, games, movies, adorable courtyard…. This is a place to linger and relax. You can, and should, take your cocktail and stroll down Jones Street - I cannot argue its “prettiest street in the USA” designation. We had family photos taken in nearby Chatham Square and Forsyth Park. Simply stunning. There’s no shortage of restaurants in Savannah. Beth and Tim provide a book listing several of them as well as things to do in Savannah. We ate well in Savannah (The Grey, St. Neo’s Brasserie) and cocktailed well (Electric Moon, Myrtle and Rose, McDonough’s). We cannot wait to return and stay longer!!

I cannot express enough of how perfect a location. This was we rented a car and didn’t even use it. We walked everywhere and it was so easy even with a two-year-old. I would definitely stay at this place again. We had so much room and felt very safe where we were. The backyard was a bonus. We loved being out there. Thank you for letting us stay at your home. It was amazing.

Beautiful home, well-appointed, convenient location

The property was beautiful, historic, and perfect for our group of 6 friends, and would be wonderful for any group type, really. The location couldn't be better, on Jones Street right in the middle of anything you could want to see. Walkability could not be beat - Close to shops, restaurants, everything. We were so happy with our experiece. The thoughtfull touches (water bottles, snacks, notes) and communication of the homeowners was excellent. A truly great welcome to Savannah and highly recommended.

About the host

Hosted by Beth and Tim Gaudreau

Host profile image
Beth and Tim recently retired and just adopted a rescue puppy. We are empty nesters and recent grandparents. We fell in love with Savannah many years ago, and it has come to be our very favorite place, so friendly with lots of southern hospitality. The architecture, lovely live oak trees and the eclectic personality of the city are like no other place, just simply magical.

Why they chose this property

From recent travel magazine; "Jones Street
Quite possibly my personal favorite of all these Savannah photo spots, Jones Street has been called the “prettiest street in America”, and once you stroll down it, it’s not hard to see why.

If you have a tendency to want to slow down to snap photos of every gorgeous home, staircase, and unique detail in sight, plan to be here a while because there is more beauty with every step."

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
