Cottage was very cozy, clean and within a very short drive of every where we wanted to go. Excellent restaurants nearby some within walking distance. It is a small cottage community, close together but very quiet and relaxing. Would definitely stay there again. Check in/out was a breeze!!
Walking distance to a few restaurants, very close to Forsythe park and River st both within a short drive. The cottage was so clean that my gf thought we were the first people to ever stay in it. We had a great time and will be coming back.

It was our first time to Savanah. The cottage was very clean and just like the pictures! Will definitely stay when we return to Savanah. It was in the middle of downtown Savanah and Tybee Island.
My husband and I stayed at this cottage twice.The cottage is a comfortable place to stay. However there are few things that I noticed needs attention. The couch and the carpet needs cleaning. I know there is notice saying your luggage can be stored in the office. But if luggage racks are added that would be great! Otherwise we love this place!

Thank you for your review and the four-star rating. I’m glad the cottage was comfortable and that you love the place. I’m sorry the couch and carpet needed attention — we appreciate you letting us know and will arrange for cleaning. Thank you also for the luggage rack suggestion; we’ll look into adding racks to make storing bags easier. If there’s anything else we could have done to make your stay perfect, please let us know through Vrbo messages so we can address it. We hope to welcome you back to Lucky Savannah soon!

We really enjoyed our stay. Lots of thoughtful design details. Comfortable and clean, we had everything we needed. Nice to have a restaurant next door. We enjoyed sitting on the pretty porch.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Marsh Hen. Everything was clean and so cute and convenient. Loved the Porch swing and sitting on porch for our morning coffee. Conveniently located between Tybee and Savannah . First night there we walked down to Tortuga’s Island Grille! Food was amazing and fun eating under the lights of the patio. Quiet stay . We were celebrating our 25 anniversary a month early and the cabin didn’t disappoint!! Would love to stay there again if we travel back to Savannah!

This is our first time booking an Airbnb and it was a wonderful experience; we'll never go back to trade hotels. This unit was absolutely perfect! Clean, neat, and the area was very quiet. We loved Savannah and will definitely come back. We hope that we get lucky and get to book this same cottage or perhaps a larger one if we bring our adult children with us. Highly recommend!

First time vacationing in Savannah, Georgia area. A travel agent/friend was helping book our trip. The hotels she was sending were so expensive and right in the middle of Savannah. My wife did some research and stumbled upon properties by Lucky Savannah. It sounded way too good to be true. She had our travel agent deep dive and research the property. It only received great reviews. We booked it. It truly was better than we even expected. Exceptional place!

My wife and I were celebrating our 27 wedding anniversary. Our return trip to Coach's Corner for another amazing tribute band just needed exactly what this little place has...total peace, simplicity, beauty, and as always LOCATION. We will definitely be returning to the Marsh Hen Den, or any of the Village on the Bluff sites. The entire property was phenomenal.

We absolutely loved the location and charm of this adorable little cottage. It is situated in Thunderbolt which is minutes from downtown Savannah and only about 15-20 minutes from Tybee Island Beach. It is clean and bright and walkable to restaurants. And the views from River Drive are amazing. The bed is comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. I highly recommend!
