Fun, Food and Sun in Savannah

The Thomas Square Streetcar District, which surrounds Drayton Place, received the distinction of a National Historic District in 1997. Once a suburb of the city, Thomas Square sits just outside the greater Savannah Historic District. It includes more than 1,000 original buildings, among them the Sacred Heart Church, the St. Francis Orphanage for African-American Children and a charitable branch of the Georgia Infirmary. They all were built during the 19th century. You'll find a wealth of history and culture practically at your front door.

Neighborhood homes display a stunning variety of architectural styles, including Beaux Arts, Queen Anne, Victorian, Neoclassical Revival and Craftsman. Take in the styles and their characteristic details on an evening stroll as the air begins to cool and the Starland District begins hopping. Since 2005, the area has been undergoing some rebuilding and sprucing up, so it is a prime place to enjoy yourself.

Just a few blocks to the north, Forsyth Park awaits with 30 acres of outdoor activities. Walking paths, gardens, playing fields, playgrounds, tennis courts and basketball courts surround the crown jewel of the park, a French-style fountain. It's a gathering place for local residents and vacation rentals Savannah GA guests alike. Weddings, reunions, music and celebrations converge around the picturesque fountain. Be sure to bring your camera because you never know what you're going to find.

If possible, stop by the park on Saturdays during your visit. A year-round farmer's market takes place, offering everything from freshly baked pastries to locally grown produce. It's a great opportunity to immerse yourself in the culture of the South.

Named after the 33rd governor of Georgia, Forsyth Park dates to the mid-1800s. View the park's historic monuments, enjoy a picnic or throw a frisbee on the expansive playfields.

There are also plenty of places to eat in and near the park. Collins Quarter at Forsyth Park is a casual café with gourmet options for breakfast, brunch and lunch. Nearby, you'll find 700 Drayton Restaurant a fancier option that serves breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner too. Drayton serves coastal Georgia cuisine in an elegant mansion setting.

The Sentient Bean at 13 E. Park Ave. is another Forsyth icon catering to your coffee and dessert cravings. It also serves vegetarian fare. Also in the Forsyth vicinity, The Haunt on Abercorn St. serves forest-to-table dishes and esoteric beverages. They source ingredients locally and add their own artful twists.

Beat the heat whenever you like at our exclusive heated swimming pool. Located on nearby Tybee Island, it's a perfect way to see some of the native landscapes and fauna along the way.
