Family Reunion

Our group of 8 adult cousins, uncles, and spouses truly enjoyed gathering at this gorgeous home from all over US. The hosts were extremely welcoming and communicative. We were able to be very close to view the St. Patrick’s Parade, enjoy Forsyth Park, and walk to the downtown attractions. Having family breakfast was wonderful at the large dinning table.

Our family had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday at this beautiful home. All ages (3-71) had a great time! The house was clean, full of all the essentials we could need, and the hosts were so kind and responsive to all our questions. Steps from Forsyth park, a playground, and the many wonderful sites of Savannah! We highly recommend staying here!

Hockey Tournament Weekend with Extended Family for

The home was spacious and beautifully decorated, providing plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy. We loved the open-concept living area, which made it easy for us to gather together for meals and spend quality time. We recommend bringing items like aluminum foil, seasoning, and serving utensils if you plan on cooking.The location was great, with nearby attractions that catered to both adults and kids, adding to the overall experience. There were a ton of restaurants in walking distance and it was nice that parking was free on the weekends and after 5:00 on weekdays. Our host was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. They provided clear instructions for everything and even reached out to check if we needed anything.Overall, our family had a wonderful time, and we would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a great getaway. We hope to return in the future!

Reunion

My family and I stayed at this property and it was a great space to stay 5 days. Half a block from the park, several blocks from shops and restaurants. I used the carriage house to seclude my little one to keep her on a sleep schedule, it also allowed the family to socialize without disturbing her. The courtyard was also a great space to have conversations about anything and everything. Highly recommend.

Beautiful Property and Incredible and Communicative Hosts

I stayed at this property for my Bachelorette party this weekend and it was just as beautiful as it appears in the pictures. It is close to the park and in a very walkable location, next to great shops, and 30 minutes away from the beach. The host, Jessica, was amazing and extremely communicative, and all of my guests loved the house. It was great for a larger group who have different sleeping schedules, and the back yard is super cute. Would highly recommend this property!

Perfect spot for a large crew

We had our wedding in Savannah in October and this is where I housed my side of the family. The house was beautiful and had all of the space we needed. And it was awesome to have the carriage house room all to myself for some peace and quiet between festivities. Jessica was so responsive and kind with all of my questions. Can't wait to come back again! And the location was incredible for quiet walks in the beautiful Forsyth Park.

This property was perfect for our college reunion. Location is in a very walkable area, and a quick Uber ride into town. House was very clean. There are 4 BR in the main house, then almost two smaller units attached. It worked out great, very spacious. Lots of stairs. Overall, if you’re looking for a large home with historic charm, this is it!

Family wedding

This house is huge. The beautiful park is just a block away with 2 big playgrounds and more. The house is close to the essentials and a moderate walk to the river and all that has to offer. The owners are right there for ya with any info or help you would need. It was great having a house big enough to hold all the family in one place but had their own separate apartment for privacy if needed. The beds are so comfortable. The woodwork and chandeliers are amazing. If you got a big group, this is the place for you.

A Memorable Family Christmas

The property worked well for our extended family of 10. When we first walked in and saw the Christmas tree, we knew we'd made a good choice. We appreciated having bedrooms & beds for everyone and a dining table large enough for us to sit together for meals. The location is perfect. We enjoyed being able to walk to so many of the places we wanted to see/explore/eat at. We all enjoyed the Saturday farmer's market in Forsythe Park and the restaurant there on another day. The free DOT busses were only a block or two away, making it easy to visit the waterfront with its many shops and restaurants. Even a grocery store was only a short walk away. Savannah is a beautiful city and the hosts were responsive to our needs. Thank you for a memorable, family Christmas.

Perfect and stunning for wedding week

This property went well beyond our expectations for our wedding week. We stayed here with most of our wedding party, and there was plenty of space for everyone (including the downtairs and over-garage apartments, which afforded extra privacy), and plenty of space to cook, eat, and gather. It allowed our whole group to spend quality time and have a blast. The house is *STUNNING*, across the board - and the large Christmas tree the owners set up in the living room was truly a gift. We did many of the bridal getting ready photos by the tree. The segmented spaces also allowed separate spaces for the bridal party vs. groom party to get ready morning-of, with the guys getting ready in the downstairs two-bedroom apartment (so much space down there too, with its own living room and kitchenette!). We did our first look with my husband waiting at the bottom of the stairs as I came out the front door, and I can't wait to see the photos. It was then a very short walk to Forsyth Park for all the rest of the photos. Perfect, absolutely perfect - this property really was a key feature to our fairytale week! Host was very responsive as well. Thank you!

Beautiful home

I really enjoyed my stay at this beautiful home in an awesome location. My only complaints are the limited number of towels (I think there should've been at least 2 for each guest...just my opinion) and there should be more trash bags provided, especially with a cleaning fee of over $400 (we had 1 trash bag for our 3 day stay). Otherwise, the owners were very responsive and we're so thankful to have found this home last minute after a previous VRBO owner canceled on us.
