As one of the oldest cities in the country, Savannah offers intriguing historic sites and museums with unique exhibits. Vacation rentals are available near places like the Bonaventure Cemetery, a historic cemetery with notable gravesites, and Wormsloe Historic Site, a site with the ruins of an 18th-century colonial estate with gardens and trails. You’ll also enjoy Old Fort Jackson, a riverfront landmark with a brick fort, cannon firings, and interactive programs.
Savannah is famously the birthplace of Juliette Gordon Low, the founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA. Now a National Historic Landmark and museum, you can visit her former home and pick up some girl scout cookies. If you prefer contemporary art to cookies (really?), then head to the city's iconic Telfair Museums, a trio of galleries which formed the first public art museum in the Deep South. Visit the main gallery for works by Robert Henri, Childe Hassam, and Julian Story, while the Jepson Center focuses on more contemporary work.
Savannah has a warm, friendly and laid-back charm often found in the Deep South. Book a Savannah vacation rental in the heart of Downtown and you'll have the very best of Georgia's oldest city right on your porch step. From shopping and sightseeing, to riverboat cruises and food tours, there's no time for resting. Take a horse-drawn carriage tour of the city, or use your own hooves on a walking tour of the Savannah Historic District. And when the sun goes down, the fun begins. Head to River Street in Downtown and sample Savannah's legendary bar scene.
Located in the Deep South, Savannah is blessed with a hot and humid climate for large chunks of the year. The best time to visit the city is between March and July, when the average temperatures are 70-80 degrees, and the azalea trees are in full bloom. Summer sees the mercury hit 90 and above, and Savannah vacation rentals are at a premium. It can bring the rains, though, so pack an umbrella. Come winter, the temperatures drops once more to a pleasant 60 degrees.
Perched on the banks of the Savannah River, the coastal city of Savannah is on the border of South Carolina and Georgia. To escape the heat of the city, head 9 miles north to the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge and witness some of the region's wildlife. Spreading across almost 30,000 acres, this rugged nature preserve is ideal for a spot of hiking. There are various trails (maps of which can be found in the visitors' center) where you may spot alligators and bald eagles, or even a Florida manatee if you're lucky.
Fly into Savannah, GA (SAV-Savannah - Hilton Head Intl.), the closest airport, located 8.1 mi (13.1 km) from the city center. If you can't find a flight that's convenient for your trip, you can also fly into Hilton Head Island, SC (HHH), which is 25.2 mi (40.6 km) away.
If you prefer train travel, make your way to Savannah Amtrak Station or Savannah Station to see more of the city.
The cuisine of Savannah reflects the diverse cultures of Georgia. Fried chicken, fresh-caught shrimp, creamy grits, and delectable barbecue are among the specialties, though you can find creative combinations of local and ethnic flavors throughout the city. You can sample the culinary culture of Savannah in steak houses, fish houses, crab shacks, piano bars, and Prohibition-era speakeasies near your vacation rental.
