About this property
George Baldwin House Garden Apartment
The George Baldwin House was constructed in 1887. Designed by architect William Gibbons Preston. This was the first commission for Preston who later went on to design many of the most famous and impressive Savannah landmarks such as the Cotton Exchange. This home is largely original and rustic on the interior. The low price reflects that aspect of the unit interior but the incredible house and great location certainly are impressive. This is for those who want to experience something far different from a polished hotel room during their historic Savannah vacation. Brockington Hall is right next door. The apartment kitchen is stocked with basic utensils (plates, pots and pans, etc) as well as a refrigerator and stove and dishwasher. We do provide sheets and towels at this listing as well.
There are two separate bedrooms in this garden apartment unit, each with a Queen size bed. The bathroom is en suite with one of the bedrooms and the bedrooms have curtains as doors so this is great for parents with a teenager or 2 friends who want to sleep in separate beds but may not be suitable for 2 couples.
We do not have a sleeper sofa so this unit sleeps a max of 4 people.
The gardens and exterior of the home are other worldly, like stepping back in time. All outdoor space is shared with several other apartments in the mansion. Each apartment has its own private entrance. You have a very spacious screened in porch including an outdoor dining table and sofa that is private to this apartment. Parking is free and easy on the street at this location and the main downtown grocery store (Kroger) is less than a block away.

We stayed 2 nights and everything was good. Close to everything and we used the patio for playing cards when we came home. All in all the stay was very good. We were out most of the day.
Location was great. Historical house was beautiful on outside but very old and needed some updates inside such as bathroom sink, etc. very noisy upstairs from a toddler I believe, which was not comfortable. Very affordable, though compared to other VRBO.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANYONE TO STAY HERE, GREAT LOCATION, ALWAYS FREE PARKING RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE RENTAL, A KROGER LIKE 75 YARDS FROM YOU IN WALKING DISTANCE, FORSYTH PARK IS JUST A FEW BLOCKS AWAY FROM YOU, WE HAD A GREAT TIME! LOVE THE WAY THE PLACE IS SET UP! HAS A BIG OUTSIDE SCREENED IN PORCH AN A COURT YARD! AWESOME PLACE, WE STAYED HER LAST NOVEMBER 2024 AN WE CANE BACK AND WE WILL BE BACK AGAIN!
Just me and a friend stayed here, but it would be perfect for up to 4 people. The house the unit is in was gorgeous, and the screened in porch was perfect for relaxing. Parking was easy and grocery right next door. Would stay here again!
Perfect location, walkable to parks, squares even river street (a bit of a walk, but doable). Very easy parking on the street. Comfortable beds, nice screened in porch, quiet neighborhood. Walk to grocery. Great stay.
we were here for three nights and had a wonderful stay. the location was only a short walk to Forsyth... we parked our car on Thursday and didn't use it again til we left for home!
We had a great time and enjoyed the stay at this VRBO. We loved the garden and it was great that we were so close to the grocery store. Very clean and very comfortable. Got to meet the owner of the home who told us more historical information. Enjoyed the weekend away!
I’ve stayed in the carriage house for this property before. It’s as described. No surprises. Location is great. I walked to the river and back without incidence. The ease of parking is a huge deal for me. It feels like a relatively safe area. It’s one block from the city free CAT bus line that goes to Broughton where there is much available shopping. Kroger is right across the street. The neighborhood is filled with stunning historical homes. If you are staying in the 703 basement space, look at the email you get with the photos for entry instructions or else you will have difficulty. Just the history of the house is enough for me! I’ll be back!
Cute 2 bedroom 1 bathroom historic place. Very clean! Looked nice and was accurate to the listing online. Street parking always available. Had a great time!
This first floor apartment has plenty of Savannah style and charm. We were comfortable and happy to park our car and walk everywhere. The large sleeping porch and fenced yard gave us extra room to spread out.
We were amazed at the history that was maintained. It did have an old smell but that was expected with the age of the building. We enjoyed the outdoor area. We enjoyed our short stay.
The other reviews are accurate about the layout and so the challenges of the space. But we were there to completely chill, not do very much and there’s enough room for us to be comfortable and we like the groovy vibe. It was too hot to enjoy the outdoor areas, but I’d like to come back and slightly cooler weather. I love the location and if it were cooler, I would’ve walked down to the main commercial area more than once though is a long walk. But there’s a handful of nice things around there plus the access to Kroger‘s pleasant if you’re just trying to get away and relax, which is exactly what we were doing.
Visiting Savannah for a wedding. Family staying nearby so the location was great. Convenient to shopping and Forsythe park. Pleasant walk to the river and many restaurants nearby. The apartment was perfect for two adults with access to the garden and yard.
Place was just as described and perfect for our stay in Savannah. Place is within walking distance to most of the historic district and everything we wanted to see and do.
We had a blast. The property was perfect for my husband and I along with my daughter and her friend to stay for a quick weekend trip. Had an amazing location. Very historic and gorgeous property. Parking was free. We enjoyed it very much.
We are an "integrated partner" with VRBO/Expedia/HomeAway. We are also a local business. What to expect when booking: Your credit card will show the rent/tax/cleaning portion of your charges under our company name because Integrated Partners are required to be the Merchant Of Record per VRBO terms of service. Only your "service fee" charged by VRBO will show on your credit card statement as a charge from that company and rest shows separately as a charge from our local Savannah GA company. Please be sure anyone who oversees your credit card statement is aware of this to avoid any confusion. If you book on VRBO you will have already agreed to our basic rules and terms (no smoking, no pets, capacity limit, check in/out times, refund policy etc) on the VRBO checkout page. Our system will email asking you to digitally sign a rental agreement with our company after booking through VRBO. Nothing in our company rental agreement contradicts the posted terms on VRBO. Integrated software partners are trusted and approved by VRBO and all Expedia Group affiliate booking sites.
