Wonderful stay! The location was perfect—within walking distance of historic downtown, but far enough away that we weren’t right in the middle of all the hustle and bustle. Parking was never a problem, which was a huge plus. It was a great place to stay with kids, and we loved being able to walk into town and then come back to a quieter area.They even had activities for the kids to play with and baby gates available, which was such a thoughtful touch for families. The hosts were very communicative throughout our stay and even provided a list of family-friendly things to do around town, which we really appreciated.The home was comfortable and had everything we needed. We had such a great time and would absolutely stay here again!

This house was perfect for our family and the location was great. The character, furnishings, and amenities were exactly what we were looking for. We enjoyed the space, comfy beds, front porch, and courtyard. Modern updates with all the charm in the historic district. The host was fantastic. Victor provided great information and offered BOTH early check-in and late check out. The parking on the street was simple, as well. We were within walking distance to River Street, restaurants, and shopping.

Beautiful historic home right in the heart of Savannah. Spacious inside and loved the front porch facing the square. I was worried about finding on street parking but was not an issue. Been going to Savannah for decades and this is the best place we have stayed!

We spent a week in Savannah, the house was excellent. I really like the front porch. We spent our mornings out there having some coffee. The house is with walking distance to downtown, and all the sites.The house furnishings were very comfortable. The kitchen had everything you need. Bathrooms were well supplied. It is a very cute house. We had a great time, and would rent it again.

Just what we needed!

My husband and I spent a few days in Savannah to visit with our youngest child. This adorable old cottage was so welcoming. We enjoyed feeing at home and relaxing as we watched a whole different world go by from the big beautiful windows. The neighborhood is gorgeous. The location is wonderful, an easy walk to enjoy food and shopping on Broughton and River St. We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely stay here again and again!

Sweet home!

We enjoyed our stay here. It’s nice not to have a big mgt company managing the property. I have stayed at others like that in Savannah and the difference shows. This house is clean and it’s easy … VERY easy …to get in touch with the owner. Parking is available on the street all the time which is nice. Book it!!!

Sister Getaway in Savannah!!

One of my sisters and I had a brief but packed visit to beautiful Savannah! We both loved the house, the location and the spectacular care the homeowners provided us in accommodating our delayed arrival/departure ans navigating the superb food scene in town! Our faces lit up like kids on Christmas when we first heard the horse-drawn carts as they passed by the house! The house was impeccably clean and comfortable and exuded true southern charm! Hope to visit again soon!

Fabulous time in Savannah

It was an antique cottage which had been restored while maintaining its character. Spacious living room, dining room and master bedroom. Located in the historic district and within walking distance to downtown, River Street and Forsyth Park. Short walk to 17Hundred90, which served as our neighborhood hangout. Friendly neighbors made us feel welcome. Host, Victor, was very accommodating. We hope to return.

Meeting Savannah

This was our first time visiting Savannah and we couldn’t have found a better place to stay. Greene Square is lovely. Part of the selling point of the property for us was the back yard area, but we spent all of our outdoor time on the front porch. Plenty of shopping and restaurants within walking distance - be sure to get the crab cakes at 1790 (we had them twice). The guys were thrilled to stumble on the military museum around the corner which we probably wouldn’t have found if we had stayed in another part of town. Parking was easy. Victor was quick to respond and super helpful and accommodating in every way. We loved Savannah and loved this house and will definitely stay again!
