About this property

Walk to Lilli's, Basil's, Molly Maguire's, Cancun, Rio Bravo, or several fast-food spots. 2 major supermarkets are within a mile. Tybee Island is 10 miles away by car. The Historic District (Downtown) Savannah is 10 miles away.

*Additional $100 Pet Fee must be paid after booking if you bring a dog as optional fees are not shown at checkout on VRBO.

​​​​​​​Guests please note: We are an "integrated partner" with VRBO/Expedia/HomeAway. Your credit card will show the rent/tax/cleaning portion of your charges under our company name because Integrated Partners are required to be the Merchant Of Record per VRBO terms of service. Only your "service fee" charged by VRBO will show on your credit card statement as a charge from that company and rest shows separately as a charge from our local Savannah GA company. Please be sure anyone who oversees your credit card statement is aware of this to avoid any confusion. If you book on VRBO you will have already agreed to our basic rules and terms (no smoking, capacity limit, check in/out times, refund policy etc) on the VRBO checkout page. You will then need to digitally sign a rental agreement with our company after booking through VRBO. Nothing in our company rental agreement contradicts the posted terms on VRBO. If you have questions about how integrated software partners are trusted and approved by VRBO and all Expedia Group websites feel free to call them to inquire.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Wonderful stay for our mini-family reunion!

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!

Great vacation getaway with family

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.

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.

Beach blast

The house was amazing. There was plenty of room for everyone. The house is a ten minute walk to the grocery store and the liquor store(very important). The best part is there is a walking trail across the street that leads directly to the Savannah Country Club. We can't wait to come back here next year!

Perfect location and house

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. With 11 adults it was perfect! Pictures can be deceiving but in this case the house was more than we expected. The house was absolutely beautiful. All of the rooms were perfect size and extremely comfortable. Having a kitchen and a grill, with a fenced in backyard made spending time with family enjoyable. Easy ride to downtown and the beach.

Why they chose this property

There are very few brand new homes available to rent in the island area just steps from restaurants and and a short drive to Downtown and the Beach. This is a true gem.

What makes this property unique

This is a breath of fresh air when it comes to a stress-free location for your group's lodging in the Savannah area. Forget about fighting for parking spots to unload your car or getting stuck in Downtown traffic. Don't worry about night life, ghost tours or parties talking loudly by your windows waking you up every night. Just enjoy the very best of island neighborhood living minutes from all the touristy things you want to do on Tybee or in the Historic District.
