History abounds throughout Savannah, and the local neighborhood is no exception. Stop off at the Massie Heritage Center, providing unique exhibits about Savannah designed for kids. Stroll by The Armstrong Mansion, or dive into Savannah’s spooky pass by stopping into the Mercer-Williams House Museum.

Our stay at Harcourt Manor was better than what I expected. The house is impeccably maintained and well equipped. Great natural light throughout the day and Its location was optimal and perfect! Walked everywhere and rarely used our car. The neighborhood is the best and in proximity to just about anything that makes Savannah so special. Great restaurants, museums, Forsyth Park all within a 10 minute walk from the house. Savannah is enchanting and this house was the best choice for us!

This place was amazing. Very upscale in all aspects. Bedding was great, loved the location that was close to parks, restaurants and historical sites. Lots of space in the house for conversations . We barely used our car over the 4 full days that we were there. I would come back here in a heartbeat

I’m a local and stayed here with a visitor. This is a great location and a luxurious house in the middle of it all! Loved walking to the park and being right next to bull street. Super convenient to have a garage and avoid street parking. Great spot to walk to the take out window at Collins Quarter in the park. Highly recommend! Comfy beds and couches. Watched alot of tv in the lux living room and ordered from the amazing restaurants. Did some shopping too! My moms favorite store is Folklorico and it was just feet away.
