Thanks so much for sharing your experience for other guests! I'm so glad your family enjoyed the proximity to the beach and Savannah's historic district. Hope to host you again on a future visit to Savannah!
We had the perfect Memorial Day weekend stay here! We had 8 adults and 2 kids, and there was more than enough space and beds for everyone to be comfortable. The house was extremely clean and decorated so beautifully — it really gave the perfect beach house feel while still being modern and neutral.The backyard was one of our favorite parts! It was so spacious and perfect for all of us to hang out, grill, and spend time together outside. The location was also amazing — only about 20 minutes from the beach, making it super convenient without all the chaos of staying directly in the middle of everything.This house was absolutely perfect for large groups or family trips, and we would 100% stay here again!
The host was quick to respond and it was just as pictured! The house was gorgeous, great for a large group, and it was in a convenient location. Would highly recommend
Convenient location (to downtown or Tybee island) in a beautiful home where our family enjoyed everyday together. Very clean, way more space than our expectations, nice yard, plenty of parking…we talked about meeting again in this very home next time. Highly recommended by all in our party!
A beautiful home. Well equiped and quick access to a grocery store on the same street. Can get to Tybee island in about 15 minutes.
We would absolutely stay there again
This is the best house we’ve ever stayed at! They had everything you could possibly imagine needing at the house and then some! It was so clean, well decorated, and felt like home! I wish I could give this property more than 5 stars!
We had a great time at this house a nice boys hang out on the 3rd floor. 15-30 minutes to everything we wanted to see which was perfect. Quiet neighborhood but super close to grocery store. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
The house was able to accommodate all 11of us whether we were outside in the backyard, fixing Thanksgiving dinner or hanging out. The house is very well stocked in the kitchen, plenty of towels, soaps, etc. We hope to come and stay again.
We traveled with our family of 6 adults, 6 children, and 2 service dogs to Savannah for my youngest son's wedding and this place was perfect for all of us! It was clean, spacious, and plenty of supplies for family breakfast before heading out to various wedding functions. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Clean
We had 10 adults and 1 toddler and didn’t feel like we were top of each other. The house was beautifully built, clean and decorated. We felt at home away from home. There were no issues with the house. It’s in a great location and not far from downtown.
We loved the house. Only negative is that the house is near a road with trucks going by during the week.It is very well equipped with many amenities. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you could need. A very pretty house. We loved our stay there.
The location is perfect. Minutes from shops, grocery stores and restaurants. Neighborhood is quiet and the size of the home is beyond perfect. Only approx. 20 mile Island
This house was amazing, it was beautiful and everything that we needed for our cheer competition in Savannah. The third floor was a great space for the girls to spend time together and get ready!
This house was absolutely perfect down to every detail. Very big and comfy for 10 of us. We could have easily accommodated more people if needed. The owner was quick and very helpful with communication. We enjoyed the fire pit and it’s in a great location close to stores and restaurants. Would definitely stay again!
