Welcome to The Kingfisher Cottage – a peaceful, riverfront retreat nestled along Savannah’s scenic Herb River. This 2-bedroom + loft, 2.5-bath getaway blends natural beauty with modern comfort, offering the perfect escape for families, couples, or small groups.
Start your mornings with coffee on the deck as herons glide across the marsh, then spend the day fishing, crabbing, or simply relaxing on your private dock. In the evenings, unwind around the firepit under the stars.
Inside, the home features a chef’s kitchen with a 48" gas range, dual ovens, and a wine cooler. The spacious living area includes a smart TV, games, and cozy seating. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms are located on the main floor, while a loft with twin beds and a half bath offers additional sleeping space.
Enjoy outdoor dining, a fenced yard for dogs, and thoughtful amenities throughout. Just minutes to downtown Savannah, Tybee Island, and Isle of Hope, The Kingfisher Cottage offers the best of Low-country living—quiet, scenic, and convenient.
