We stayed for our anniversary and we loved it! The room was gorgeous and the location was perfect! Being across the street from the park was my favorite part. The host was wonderful on communication as well. She sent a little welcome message after our check in and there is a little welcome book in the room with recommendations on where to eat and attractions to see. 10/10 experience for sure.

Loved the location in historic Savannah, right across the street from Forsyth Park. Charming gated entrance with front door and back door patios. The interior was historically correct, very charming and comfortable. The location of the maison was quiet compared to the area closer to the river front.

The location was great and the price was good. The upstair tenants were very noisy. It sounded like they were running around upstairs and moving furniture around too. I must say the place could have been cleaner too. I was excited to see the washer and dryer but they weren’t hooked up. WHY HAVE THEM IF THEY DON’T WORK.

Response from VrboOwner on 18 Jun 2026
Ann, I regret that we did not perform our responsibilities enough to get a 5 star review. The cleaning aspect we can definitely work on. We let our guests know when booking that they are guests upstairs and being an older home noise travels very easily. The washer/dryer are not an amenity that we offer or state on our listing. The owner has put those there to help the housekeeper with laundry duties and they were just purchased and awaiting a plumber to install. Again my apologies for your less than positive experience.

Peaceful spot within perfect walking distance to nearly everything, and with Forsyth Park outside your door you'll want to be outside as much as possible. The bed was almost too comfortable, since there isn't a ton of natural light, so if you have trouble waking up just watch out for it!
