About this property
Carriage House East at George Baldwin House
This apartment is in the 'carriage house' behind the George Baldwin Mansion. This is a rustic cabin-vibe unit. Full bed + 2x Twin beds. Great location! This is a simple but great unit for adventuresome non-picky guests. The television has basic channels with digital antenna and the wifi comes from the owner's home across the yard. Grocery store ('downtown Kroger') is less than a block away. The George Baldwin House was constructed in 1887. Designed by architect William Gibbons Preston. This was the first commission for Preston who later went on to design many of the most famous and impressive Savannah landmarks such as the Cotton Exchange.
This carriage house unit has a cabin-like interior with built in twin beds instead of normal living room seating, and a built in queen bedroom in the bedroom. The kitchen separates the bedroom/bathroom from the living area and only the bathroom has a proper door.
Neighborhood overview: This is in the southern edge of the Historic District very close to Forsyth Park and right next to the event venue Brockington Hall which is another incredible historic mansion.
Getting around: Walking is the best way to get around Savannah but taxi, Uber, trolley or Pedi Cab are readily available options for a ride.
Other things to note: Parking is free on the public street and you will need to read street sweep signs. One side of Hall is cleaned Friday night and the other is cleaned Wednesday night. You will have no trouble if you read those signs and swap sides accordingly. The hot water takes a few minutes to reach the fixture since it comes from the basement of the main house.
What to expect when booking: We are an "integrated partner" with VRBO/Expedia/HomeAway. Your credit card will show the rent/tax/cleaning portion of your charges under our company name because Integrated Partners are required to be the Merchant Of Record per VRBO terms of service. Only your "service fee" charged by VRBO will show on your credit card statement as a charge from that company and rest shows separately as a charge from our local Savannah GA company. Please be sure anyone who oversees your credit card statement is aware of this to avoid any confusion. If you book on VRBO you will have already agreed to our basic rules and terms (no smoking, no pets, capacity limit, check in/out times, refund policy etc) on the VRBO checkout page. Our system will email asking you to digitally sign a rental agreement with our company after booking through VRBO. Nothing in our company rental agreement contradicts the posted terms on VRBO. If you have questions about how integrated software partners are trusted and approved by VRBO and all Expedia Group websites feel free to call them to inquire.
