Great stay

This was this easiest rental process I have ever been through. Download an app and go. The app provided every detail for us to get in our house and once in example Wi-Fi pw, codes, checkout. It was very user friendly. Nice clean house, in walking distance to a lot of food and fun places! We had four adults on the trip and had a blast.

Cute for tiny family

Adorable place in a great location. We didn't notice on the booking information there wasn't a dishwasher but made eating in with a family of 4 less than desirable (good thing Savannah has such amazing restaurants). A shade over the back bedroom skylight would improve the sleeping situation. Also, I'd suggest getting rid of the barstools and adding another comfortable chair to accommodate 4 people.

Delightful City

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our 2 weeks at Wakefield Cottage. It was old and cute - location perfect. The negatives were: uncomfortable living room furniture, poorly equipped kitchen, low shower head in 1 bath, and a difficult to open back gate. Loved the courtyard and back room.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Good. Ceiling fans would help with air flow especially in the bedrooms. Also additional spoons would help as there were only two spoons in the whole place. Need a spaghetti pan too.

Great Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Savannah is one of our favorite places to spend some time in. Wake field Cottage matched the pictures and was a clean and comfortable place. rooms are great and both bathrooms were a good size for homes of this age. The back courtyard was fantastic for our dog, although a little weedkiller might if helped the bricks a bit. The private parking space and not needing to move your car on sweep days are definitely a plus for anyone staying in this town! Great location close to everything really

Great Location in cute cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stopped for 3 nights stay in Savannah on return from Florida at this adorable cottage. Excellent location and parking space is added bonus. Only downside is it is really not well outfitted to cook a meal as utensils etc are limited. Also you must walk through one bedroom to get to 2nd but both have baths. So if either of those points are not an issue, it is a wonderful place with a nice fenced in courtyard. Would definitely book again!

Our little home for the weekend!

My two BFFs and I stayed here for the weekend and had a wonderful time. The apartment was clean, there were plenty of towels, the beds were comfy, the bathrooms were clean and we had great water pressure in the showers. There is parking and a cute little garden. We were close to everything, the river and city market, walking wasn't an issue. It was really cold that weekend, so we ended up hanging out at the apartment one afternoon. The sofa isn't the most comfortable, but we made it work. I would stay here every time I come to Savannah. Also, I called Lucky Savannah a few times with questions and they were SO HELPFUL and SO VERY NICE! Thank you again!

Great location

Very nice stay with my bff. Walked to everything and there was so much to see and do! Food was great. People were so friendly. The cottage is very quaint and small, yet lovely. The second bedroom appears to be a porch that has been enclosed. It was a bit warm and stuffy, but using a fan took care of this issue. Not sure how it would be in the heat of summer. But the bed was comfy and I really loved the brick walls and vintage decor. Overall a great girl’s getaway trip. Food and drinks in Savannah are awesome!! I would suggest supplying some wine glasses. But we didn’t cook, instead took advantage of the amazing nearby restaurants! I hope to return and would stay here again.

Great location but pictures a bit deceiving

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the location but felt that the pictures of the cottage were a bit deceiving. The cottage is a bit run down and wasn't really that clean. Living room lamp zip tied together, the courtyard wasn't very pretty or well maintained. This cottage could be very cute with a few updates and improved housekeeping. Needs a ceiling fan in back bedroom as it gets quite warm back there.

Savannah Wakefield cottage stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: LuckySavannah was amazing! Every single email and call was professional and helpful. Special thank you for their help dealing with our package delivery! My husband and I have stayed in many vacation rentals, this one was not our favorite. The location to savannah points of interest can not be beat. The off street parking is a big bonus. However, the house was not as sparkly clean as we are used to and the laundry situation wasn’t great (very small apartment sized washer drier that didn’t work well).

Charming Old Savannah Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First let me say this was a fine place to stay. My daughter and granddaughter stayed with us and this cottage is perfect for a family with kids. Full bed and two twins. Very cool second bathroom crafted from original brick porch. Has the basics in kitchen needs and a TV in every room. Perfect location for walking. Four blocks from River Street just off the square between Broad and Price. The downside was that the second bedroom is accessed through the main bedroom which wasn't ideal. Also the second bedroom has a skylight which allows beautiful morning light in. I loved it but one might not if they are trying to sleep. That being said I would stay again.
Response from VrboOwner on May 20, 2022
Robyn, thank you again for booking with Lucky Savannah. To clear up any confusion, prospective guests should know that there is a Queen bed and two Twin beds in this home. The bathroom location is a little quirky, but previous guests have never had an issue. We look forward to hosting you again soon!
