We had a great stay at this beautiful home near Savannah's charming historic center. Easy check-in. Lots of free street parking. House was spotlessly clean. The decor was beautiful, blending modern touches with a classic charm. It had a well equipped kitchen and had everything we needed. Helped a great deal having a functional washer dyer. Well maintained property. Very safe and lovely neighborhood. Forsyth park was 2mins walk away. The historic center was a few mins walk away. Riverfront was 20-25mins walk. Communication with the hosts was excellent. Always prompt in their responses and extremely accommodative whenever we needed help. We absolutely recommend this property to anyone visiting Savannah and can't wait to stay here again on our next trip.

The photos and descriptions were beautiful and accurate, but still didn’t do the place justice! It’s a perfectly laid out, spacious, convenient, clean and cozy space. I couldn’t have been happier with my stay, and will be booking again for future trips when I can!

Wonderful place to stay just off Forsythe Park and super close to farmer markets and walking distance to all the sites in the historic district. Very comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen, the bathroom has very good water pressure, and it even had a washer and dryer. Nice little sitting area outside to enjoy morning coffee. I'm sure we will be back.

We enjoyed our stay in Savannah,GA. Not only was the location perfect for our one year old, but the Airbnb was very spacious, cozy, clean and the host was very responsive. We look forward to visiting again.

Didn’t care for their locking system, but once we got past that, the place was awesome. Was are favorite of several stays in Savanna. Great location for enjoying the park.

Immaculate. Not a bit of wear on the furnishings that were warm and bright. Comfortable bed, furnishings and rooms. Beautiful kitchen. Ice for drinks. Coffee in the morning. A wonderful relaxing and private courtyard. Walking distance to all that you want to see and do. What a delight! Thank you!

Just steps from Forsyth Park and blocks to the heart of historic Savannah. Brandon & Chase's street-level home was a perfect location for moving my daughter into college and visiting city sights. It was much larger than I expected and while the rain kept us from enjoying the outdoor space - it was lovely to have an option to sit in our own walled garden yard. A large bedroom with a space for a desk with a makeup mirror was some welcome touches!

It’s described correctly. However, it would go a long way if they would invest in some basic items like pots/pans, new silverware and mixing bowls (plastic family dollar). When we do Airbnb or Vrbo we like cooking in at least half the time. Check in good. Check out we got knock at foot right at 10:00 so felt rushed.
