Map & Owner's Profile
The Mimosa House - 1890 Townhouse Near Forsyth - Great Value!
Year Purchased: 2007
Why the Owner Chose Savannah
Savannah is a destination, and when you live in a destination, family and friends visit often! After years of accommodating our friends and family, it was at their recommendation that we looked into purchasing a vacation rental. We selected the Mimosa House because we loved the area - close to everything! a beautiful block, large yard and deck overlooking garden for our four-legged visitors or to enjoy the beautiful weather! A cozy place to call home on your next vacation.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
Our most unique feature of the home is the art collection! Most of which we traded with the artists themselves and some of my husband's original pieces as well. Additionally, the large deck overlooking the garden is an excellent way to enjoy our Savannah weather year round! Staying in a historic building also captures Savannah's unique Southern charm!
Owner's Map of Savannah
My husband and I both moved to Savannah to attend the Savannah College of Art and Design - and as you can imagine, we fell in love with Savannah and never left! My husband is an artist and I founded and run an educational non-profit.

We had a great time in Savannah. The Mimosa House was a great value with a great location. The off-street parking was a real benefit. The artwork was a bit quirky but tasteful. Everything was in great shape, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen is a great family gathering place and the neighborhood is a delight. Less than a block from a grocery store and a really cool park two blocks away. Really worth twice the price!

We stayed at this property in April of '09. My parents, husband, 2 year old myself and our 80 lb Lab. It was the perfect place that had all the ammenities we needed. The weather was rotten, but it didn't cramp our great time. The dog had room to roam, there was plenty of room to cook and play gamed in the kitchen. Across the alley from us, there was a neigborhood garden being put in! And right around the corner was the Mercer House and the Kroger's. It's not always easy to travel with a big dog, but he was right at home and we appreciated him being able to come along. Thanks for a clean, comfortable place to call home!

My stay at the Mimosa House was delightful. The young family that own this excellent get away have worked very hard to make it very special for their guests. They were very helpful in giving the greatest restaurant suggestions as well as directions. The location is in the heart of Savannah & very convenient to all the fine restaurants and sights. Everything was clean and fresh. This lovely unit is beautifully decorated with very cool art & interesting antiques. The kitchen was well equipped with all the amenities of home. The living room is great for sitting, talking, and watching tv. The bedrooms are so comfortable I had no problem sleeping. I couldn't have asked for a finer place to stay. Truly a gorgeous & tranquil place!!!! I just can't wait to go back!!!! And a resounding "Yes, I would recommend this lovely comfortable home away from home".

Perfect vacation home away from home

I knew it would be lovely, but was pleased beyond expectation with the charming Mimosa House. Exceedingly comfortable, tidy and well-maintained, with great access to downtown Savannah. My mother (elderly, but she wouldn't agree) was very much at home and charmed by the surroundings. The full kitchen was a plus, as were the private entrance and lovely yard in back. Everything looked and felt thoughtful and polished -- with keen and kind attention to decor and artwork -- a gem in Savannah, ideal for thorough visits to the city.

Once upon a time, in this house in downtown Savannah, close friends and family met for a Thanksgiving celebration which was going to be unlike any they had ever experienced. We had the time of our lives. Thanks for the memories "Mimosa House".

Thank you for having such a nice place for us to stay. It was so HOT this month we didn't go out much but we found all the comforts of home here. This allowed us to stay together as a family (with our dog) while we waited to move to Alaska!
