New Townhome - Great for Couples or Families
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Savannah
You can walk to everything and its so convenient to everything I like to do in the city. The downtown location is also convenient to places I like to go to like Tybee Island, my yoga center by Forsyth Park, and my favorite pizza is right next door at Mimi's!
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
Living in the Historic District is great but living in a NEW townhome in the district is BETTER for me and my family!
The Pink House's downstairs dark and cozy tavern! You MUST go here to get SOMETHING w friend green tomatoes in it (their salad and ap are both fantastic!!). Listen to live piano by the fireplace with your friends and have them mix you an extra dirty martini w blue cheese stuffed olives!!! So good!
Great atmosphere and they serve half pints! Full French menu downstairs.
Fabulous views over all of Downtown Savannah as well as the Savannah bridge. Okay food and drinks but the view is worth it. Get here early - gets crowded esp on weekends. Take the elevator down to River Street and go next door to Kevin Barry's for dinner of fish n' chips and live Irish music!
Best Irish music in town! But shhhh! No talking while Harry O'D is playing or you will get called OUT!
So peaceful and quiety. Great place to rest for a moment. A lot of folks come in to sketch and paint as well.
Shop like a local at these adorable boutiques! See Jane is a modern beauty bar where you can walk in for a brow waxing or shaping, pick up a gift, & have Shelly do your make up or give you a facial. The BEST!. Elizabeth at Satchel is totally talented - she designs all these amazing leather goods ranging from $25 to $500. Soon to be discovered - get your SATCHEL now!
Magnificent cathedral - a definite must do, especially at the holidays to see the holiday nativity. The Cathedral received a Preservation Award from the Georgia Trust for Preservation for their huge overhaul in the early 2000's.
Yum - great place for breakfast or lunch, esp to sit outside. If you go for supper, you can BYO.
YUM! Holy cow - I was unsure b/c of their hours but was blown away! So good and yum, yum, yum!!! And reasonable, to boot! http://www.brasserie529.com/

This by far was my favorite visit to Savannah. We loved staying at this property and felt instantly right at home. I have stayed in many older homes in the city and this one has tons of charm but all the modern items you need on vacation. The courtyard was a huge plus and great to sit outside and enjoy the fountain. Every room has a comfortable and cottage feel and you will really be able to walk to just about anything. We are booked for a return visit in the spring!

We had the best time at Claire's retreat!!! We came to get away with a few friends and this place exceeded our expectations. Check In/Out was simple and easy. Just a 10 minunte walk to River street. We enjoyed the fabulous courtyard all weekend and there was a delicious pizza place right across the street. We ate there twice!! We would love to stay here again!

We recently rented Clair's Retreat for a weekend away in Savannah, and were thrilled with this rental. The property is practically brand new, very nicely furnished, and very well-kept. The location is also wonderful - it is conveniently located between the historic parks (such as Forsyth and all of the squares with the historic homes) and the River Street area with all of its charming little shops, so we were able to walk to everywhere we went. The rental process was also very easy and Laurie is wonderful to work with - she offered us quite a number of recommendations for dining and things to do around town during our stay and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable. We definitely plan to return and hope we have the opportunity to visit Claire's Retreat again! :)

We had a great time in this home. Met up with some old friends from college and Claire's was the perfect spot for our reunion! Bedrooms are on separate floors for privacy and the courtyard was where we spent the majority of our time - coffee in the morning and wine after dinner! The rental agent was great with her food recommendations and knew lots of good things to do while we were in town. We think we will come back for one of the festivals - maybe make it annual! Definitely recommend this spot - great value and perfect set up for our small group.
Owner response:So glad you and Simone, Gary, & Marsha had a lovely time! Please think of us for your future travels! - Queen Bee
