Our family stayed here to attend a wedding. This is a beautifully decorated and well-equipped home. Cool and comfortable -- an oasis from the summer heat and humidity. Steps from lovely Forsythe Park. Betty (the owner) is lovely to work with.
Recommended for:Girls getaway, romantic getaway, age 55+, tourists without a car, sightseeing.
Perfect Getaway!

Charming restored town home in a great location! We stayed in this home during a "girl's" weekend, and couldn't have been more satisfied. Beautiful period decor throughout, but, equipped with every modern amenity! Betty was a wonderful hostess! We felt right at home! If you're visiting Savannah, this home makes a great choice for your stay.

Four family members met in Savannah for a get-together, and were absolutely delighted with the accommodations and location. The photos do not do the home justice, and the owner had thought of every imaginable convenience. She was delightful and accommodating, and was the epitome of Southern hospitality. We would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend it. My daughter-in-law always takes her own linens when she travels, but didn't even take them out of her suitcase because everything was so clean and of such high quality. Loved it! Thank you, Betty! Our stay in your home could not have been more perfect!

This beautiful old Savannah home has been restored to very modern condition, but maintains a taste of sophositicated old decor. A very nice and quiet place to stay with plenty of room for 4 to enjoy their individual privacy. My wife enjoyed the decor so much she plans to redecorate our home with similar ideas. A very nice home and we enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic!!! We came here for a getaway after being impressed with the information shown on VRBO. Although we had high expectations because of what we saw on the website, this home far exceeded them. It is beautifully, creatively, and luxuriously appointed with great attention to detail. The home's ambiance is warm, welcoming, and gorgeous, and the location is superb. Betty is such a gracious host, providing for us in a way that was far beyond "the call of duty". This setting provided the perfect venue for a marvelous heartwarming family getaway. I would recommend this beautiful home to anyone who is visiting Savannah. In fact, as lovely as Savannah is, I'd be willing to come back as much to stay in this home as to visit the city. Thank you Betty for everything!

We stayed at the townhouse for three days in early September 2009. The accommodations thoroughly exceed our expectations. The townhouse was extremely comfortable, luxurious and its location was great. The pictures on the website do not fully show how nice the unit was. The owner of the unit, Betty, was also very helpful and pleasant to deal with. We would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Savannah area.
Owner response:It is easy to be helpful and pleasant when I have such great guests.
