About this property

Historic Home with Modern Upgrades; Urban Getaway by Lucky Savannah

A perfect home for a traveling couple, this luxurious retreat has a unique layout with seating areas both upstairs and downstairs. The alternating exposed brick and grey wood panel walls give a rustic feel to the industrial decor.

You’ll find everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The first floor has a large couch and TV, a dining table for four, and a half bath tucked away under the staircase. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, beautiful dark cabinets, and a breakfast bar for morning musings.

Upstairs is a spacious primary suite with a king sized bed and sitting area. The balcony off of the bedroom is perfect for catching a sunset, having a cup of coffee, or reading a book. The bathroom has an open shower with built-in seating and a large vanity with plenty of room to get ready for an evening on the town.

You’ll be just a quick walk from Mrs. Wilkes Dining House on Jones Street, where you’ll find some of the best Southern home cooking in the city. Take a leisurely morning stroll through Forsyth Park to people watch while having coffee at the Sentient Bean, and don’t forget to check their upcoming events for live music and theatrical performances!

Why Lucky Savannah Loves this Property:
- The modern updates to this home make it a one-of-a-kind historic home with amenities you won't find anywhere else!
- A walk down Whitaker Street will bring you to several locally owned shops, including One Fish Two Fish, Number Four Eleven, and Lily Bay Studio + Bazaar.

Downtown Savannah

We didn’t get an opportunity to stay in the property because of some challenges my husband was having. The property is located perfectly, most cost effective parking was there using meter. Everywhere else was 48-50. The hosts were very accommodating and sensitive to our concerns and we appreciated that.

Spring Getaway

Charming carriage house in convient location to walk/visit Savannah sites. Check in was a bit challenging at night due to poor entry way to the house with unven brick and stepping stone lined walkway. Once settled everything was perfect with modern appliances/updates in historic house.

Lovely hidden gem!

This place exceeded our expectations! I loved how quiet and intimate it was! It felt like we were walking through a secret garden each time we came back or left. We would absolutely reserve this place again! It is conveniently located to everything! The place was clean, well decorated, and had modern amenities while still embracing the historical charm! The only critique I would give is the need for a washer and dryer, that would have made it perfect! We'll definitely be back!!

Perfect, spot on

We have been traveling for 3 months and this is by far the cleanest place we stayed at and the location within Savannah was exactly what we wanted. The pictures are accurate, very comfortable to stay. It is right next to Forsyth park and easy walking to anything you would want to see, even the river front is about 15 minutes. Felt very safe and we found free parking on Hutchingdon, two streets away a 5 minute walk. Make sure to pay attention to signs and when they sweep the street you may have to move your car to the other side of street. There is a little lane adjacent to property to pull into to unload suitcases etc, can't park there though. Currently there is not a washer or dryer which would be helpful, looks like they may be trying to add it in. Also the lower bathroom is not very private but staying with my spouse so no big deal. (I did need to use a suction cup hook on mirror to hold the hand towel there was no place to hang it and sink area was small.) I would highly recommend this place and when we visit Savannah in the future definitely will be returning here.

Beautiful Apartment

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: Let me start by saying Brooke of Lucky Savannah goes beyond to help and make you feel comfortable if it was not for her we would of been completely lost. The apartment is a beautiful place nice and comfortable close to the river walk and historic savannah. One bad thing the tv you only have 5 or 6 channels available sometimes you wanna stay in for dinner and watch a nice movie and that is not possible.

Beautiful quiet location, very loud AC

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely quiet location right by Forsyth park. It really felt like a gem hidden away. The only two issues are the cleaning solution used was incredibly strong and the smell lasted 2 days. Also both of the AC units were incredibly loud. They made a loud whining sound any time they were on. It's a beautiful stay, but bring your earplugs.

nice, quiet spot for a couple with no kids

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we've stayed in various rentals throughout savannah trying to find the place we want to keep returning to. this one almost fit the bill as it was in an excellent location with ample parking and was relatively quiet. bonus for not having to worry about hearing other people clomping around at all hours of the day since this is it's own stand alone property. the only blemish in our stay was the shower situation. the shower upstairs was an exercise in frustration in that we never got it to work. fortunately there is a shower downstairs too but it's one of those rain showers that are pretty in theory but ridiculous in practice. but if you don't mind that type of shower, then i'd highly recommend staying here! maybe by the time you stay here, they'll have fixed whatever chaos is happening with the upstairs shower!

Great location, perfect in almost every way.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first time to stay over night in Savannah. We were at the carriage house for 3 nights and it was just as advertised. The location was two blocks away from Mercer House and one block from Forsyth Park. The location could not be more perfect for those who want to explore the City. I really only have minor complaints about the property - mainly don't count on doing a load of laundry. This was a terrible little machine. But, If that is all you can say bad - you know it is perfect. Thank you so much.

Unless you don’t have kids , don’t stay here

Lucky vacation was great, the location wasn’t. Unless yout don’t have kids, don’t stay here. You have to walk everywhere. You have to pay to park multiple times a day for either street or garage parking. The keys wouldn’t work for the gate or the house and had to be re-keyed. Outlets didn’t work. You have “cable” but it’s 5 channels. The doors to the bathrooms are an awful design, no real privacy. No blinds for the glass doors. The old lady in the court yard stares into the house, constantly. I would not stay here again. Over priced and just a handful of problems!

Not what we expected.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental looked bigger in the pictures than it was in person. That being said it was fine for the two of us. We were interested in the design of the rental and were quite pleased with want we found. Some problems we encountered were, the light by the door into the rental did not work. It would have been nice to have light when coming back after dark. We had ants when we checked in, called the rental company and they sent someone over that night to take care of them. He could not figure out how to get the light on. There could be shelves in the cabinets and more than one dish towel. Upstairs there needs to be a curtain for the door leading to the balcony and there should be an instruction manual for the washer/dryer combo. Heating took a little while to figure out and get it set so that it stayed comfortable. On the plus side all the appliances worked and it was great having a large shower, even though it took a long time for water to get to the second floor.The rental was clean when we arrived. It is in a great location making it easy to walk to most places.The rental company was great and answered any question we had.

Place is clean and the AC split units are amazing and the place stays cold. The units are quiet so whoever says they are loud, don't believe them. Company was very responsive for one small request.

Very Nice... We would stay again.

The property is very nice. Conveniently located by Forsyth Park. We walked everywhere. It is conveniently located in an ideal spot for the activities we planned. The comment others have made about the bathroom doors is correct. They need a handle on the inside. There is basically no privacy on the main floor bathroom though (sliding door that hangs open), so know that before going.

Anniversary Getaway

My husband and I enjoyed our stay with Lucky Savannah. The pictures and descriptions of the rental were accurate. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Loved being within walking distance or a short drive of local shops and restaurants. They were very accommodating and responded to our needs in a timely manner… they brought us additional towels and even a can opener per our requests. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and dish ware, glass ware, cooking ware, etc. The premise were very clean and we felt very safe Throughout our stay. Thank you for making our 26th Anniversary a memorable one.. Yes, we would recommend this rental to couples visiting the Savannah area.

Comfortable, close to Forsyth Park

Less than a block from Forsyth, Dot (free city bus) stop literally a few steps from the door. Rental has two full bathrooms, comfy couch with cable TV and full kitchen. Only downsides are poor lighting from outer gate to front door (cellphone flashlight was helpful) and limited cookware available in kitchen (no frying pan).
