Lucky Savannah was great to work with and the historic home was incredible. To know we were staying in a home where the owner helped shape American history was really special! We didn’t rent a cat at all and spent entire weekend walking to see all the sites. Numerous restaurants & bars to choose from. Make sure you visit St John the Baptist cathedral & the speakeasy underneath The Old Pink House - a blast!! Can’t wait to return!!

This place was so charming and the location was perfect for my work conference and just enjoying the city. We did not have any issues getting parking near the house and found almost everything we wanted to enjoy was within walking distance. Highly recommend!
Amazing location! We were able to park on the street next to the house the whole time. So fun to have the horse drawn carriages drive by. Lots of history to the house.

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay! We had a great time and love the history of the house!! Walking distance to the river walk and restaurants!!!
This was a very nice location to enjoy historic Savannah. Both couples enjoyed the home, the location, and even the ease of parking there. This would be an easy choice for another visit to Savannah.
The house was adorable and we loved the location. Had some problems with the heat, but the management was quick to fix it. Neighbors are loud, butI would totally stay there again. Great place.
Awesome place to stay. Close walking distance to everything. Super clean. Fully loaded with Kitchen supplies-(even a wine bottle opener! We forgot ours) Easy check-in easy check-out! Highly recommend
We had such a great time! The location was perfect for walking down to River Street. On street parking was very easy and available-we were able to park 3 cars-I highly suggest you download the ap! The beds were very comfortable. We will definitely stay here again!
We stepped back in time with this lovely cottage! Very cozy, great location to walk all around the North Historic District with all its beautiful homes and all the fun things to do. We hardly needed our car… Savannah did not disappoint!
We had a wonderful stay. The cottage is unique and close to everything! For those with mobility issues, know that the stairs to the second level are very steep.
Two friends and I stayed for a long girls weekend in Savannah and had a great time at this property! Centrally located and easy walking distance to all big attractions. The rental was clean, the managers were very friendly, and there was plenty of room for all of us to stay comfortably. Would highly recommend and look forward to coming back!
Good location, walked all over Savannah! For those that don’t know, parking is usually an additional cost about everywhere in Savannah. Paid parking is available right in front of the house - Savannah has a nice app for your phone that makes it easy.

Thank you for choosing to stay with Lucky Savannah Vacation Rentals! We appreciate your kind feedback, and we hope to see you again soon!
This location was perfect for walking around & parking. We were (3) couples with (3) vehicles and had no issues with parking or getting around by foot. The cottage had plenty of space for us.
The only issue was the inconsistent heat in the house. Most the het went to one room.

My husband and I and our two adult children stayed here for four nights in Jan 2025. Our first impression was WOW! It was even better than we expected. In the photos it appeared that the bed in the downstairs bedroom was against the wall. To our delight it was not. There was plenty of room for someone to get out of bed without climbing over. We were thrilled with this because I am a handicapped person and navigating the stairs would have been a problem for me. There is a full bath downstairs only a few steps from the bedroom. It was very clean and comfortably furnished. It is an old property, so it has its quirks, like uneven floors and very steep stairs. The second night we were there we didn't have hot water. I called the management company first thing the next morning, a Saturday, and they had someone out to fix it immediately! The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of pillows. The location was better than expected. It was in walking distance of almost everything we wanted to see. The only parking is street paid parking. Even with a handicapped placard you still have to pay in Savannah. I recommend you purchase a parking permit when you arrive for the length of your stay. We were always able to find a parking space adjacent to the property. We would gladly stay here again if we are ever back in Savannah.

We went to Savannah to celebrate a friend's 30th birthday. The house's location felt very central and very walkable to our activities. The beds were comfy and the house was quite clean with easy check-in and check-out instructions. The house included a binder with the historic restoration process, which was a cool bonus. We didn't experience anything spooky during our stay, but maybe the next time we come to visit Savannah!
Beautiful, historic cottage. We felt like we had stepped back in time. Rooms were roomy and comfortable. The living room only accommodates 3 people, which was tough for 3 couples. The downstairs tub was uneven, so be careful when showering. This cottage was close to everything and we walked everywhere.
