Dog Friendly Historic Home by Forsyth w/ Private Courtyard by Lucky Savannah

Why Lucky Savannah Loves this Property:
- The beautiful private courtyard is the perfect spot to enjoy breakfast.
- This pet friendly home is just two blocks from Forsyth Park, Savannah’s largest green space.

Tucked away on Tattnall Street, Whippet house is a two-bedroom Savannah gem. Guests will enjoy the short walk to downtown's center, while having a private retreat in one of the city's oldest residential neighborhoods.

You’ll find the living room appointed with an eclectic yet warm collection of furnishings and decor from the owners' international travels. A formal dining room connects the front of house with the cheery kitchen, equipped with modern appliances and cookware for all your dine-in needs. Off the back of the home, you’ll find a private courtyard that comfortably seats four.

Both bedrooms are upstairs, each with their own full baths. The first bedroom has a Queen size bed and antique writing desk, while the second bedroom mirrors the first but with a King size bed and excellent views of historic Tattnall Street. With windows on either side of the home, Whippet House receives ample natural light during the day. Shutters and window treatments ensure privacy when wanted.

One block north lands you in Chatham Square, one of Savannah's gorgeous green spaces. Head east two blocks to historic Forsyth Park, known for its famous fountain and a popular location for weddings. Enjoy a liege waffle and latte at Mirabelle Cafe, before touring the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, located right across the street. Broughton Street, a hub of Savannah’s shopping, and River Street are only 10-15 minutes north from there, respectively.

Sleeping Configuration:
Bedroom One: Queen
Bedroom Two: King
Living Room: Sleeper Sofa

We can welcome your dog companions at this pet friendly home, but ask that you find other arrangements for cats, birds, and other furry friends.

Savannah Sisters Trip - The Whippet House
We really enjoyed our stay at The Whippet House. The property was very comfortable, extremely clean, beautifully furnished, spacious with very nice amenities and in a great location for walking to local destinations with easy access to highways for several day trips outside of Savannah. It was actually easier to walk to local attractions in Savannah from the property instead of driving because parking can be difficult. There is a parking spot behind the property which was a big plus. We did day trips to Tybee Island, Hilton Head, Charleston and Beaufort along with exploring Savannah. We enjoyed our stay here and would absolutely recommend this property.

Great property, frustrating neighbors ( right next door)
Great property, excellent location. However neighbors are really frustrating. We reached late to the property and with in 2 mins we settled down in the home. However, neighbors complained that we came late and made noise. If they can’t stand with that 2 mins moving luggage process to home, they shouldn’t be next to vacation home. So unless you are sure, you checkin before 5 pm, don’t try this home, you will end up receiving complaints from stupid neighbors.

Comfort in the heart of Savannah
Easy access good parking and felt safe. Stairs is something we not used to but we adapted The ice maker didn’t work there was a couple of ice trays 1 was good but the other was not. If there was more trays available it would have been better or get the ice maker repaired. Dealing with Lucky Savannah was easy and friendly. If we go back I would definitely reach out to them again. Satisfied with our stay Joe

Great Spot
This rental was in the perfect location for us. We went down for the SCAD sidewalk festival. The rental was clean and very inviting. It could use a few updates to the paint and appliances but overall it has no effect on the house itself. The location was great, it was a mile walk to the River and close the park. The neighborhood was pretty quiet and all the neighbors were so friendly and inviting.

Great location, cute home.
What we loved most about this house is the location and the ability to sit outside in the back. The weather was perfect to be outside and we enjoyed the outside every morning for breakfast and late at night for some late night cocktails. We walked just about everywhere. Only uber’ed once due to rain.

Wonderful place!
The property was very clean and inviting. We loved the decor and location. It’s a perfect set up for two couples. If you have a full size pick up truck, the reserved parking spot out back is a little tight. We were, however, able to find street parking out front. That’s not a complaint, just a heads up for anyone going. I highly recommend this property!

The placec was a good location, within walking distance of many things, if you don't mind walking. Parking spot for one car. Our only complaint was the linens for the pull out bed were in very poor condition, but they were replaced immediately after we made a phone call complaining.

Home away from home
We were all very impressed with the house. We absolutely loved our stay. Very clean and up to date. The only thing we can think of is the amount of steak knives. Also, the hand rail had a few loose screws. I would highly recommend this house to everyone.

Lovely restored townhouse
We had a wonderful time in the home. The location was perfect and we walked everywhere. The decor gave homey but elegant feeling.. The beds and linens were exceptional. The home needs abit of TLC . The beautiful old wood floors turned our bare feet pretty dirty. The doors by the knobs need a scrub they are kinda gross. We were a family of 5 and there were only 2 glasses and 2 mismatch wine glasses. Since children were welcomed some plastic glasses would be great to have. Just a little work and it would be perfect.

Great location and property
I recently stayed at this property with my husband and another couple. The location is in a lovely area close to a lot of beautiful sites. The two bedrooms upstairs were separated by a long hall, which is perfect for two couples that want privacy. The beds & pillows were comfortable. We enjoyed the outdoor patio quite a bit. The only issue was that there was no way to light it. My request for help on that proved futile as the instructions I was given were irrelevant to this property.

Good location, disappointing house
The house needs several repairs. The hinges on the door going to the courtyard are falling off. The kitchen is only basically equipped. The light switch at the bottom of the stairs does not work making it dangerous and the carpet on the stairs also make coming down dangerous. The beds were comfortable. I would not rent it again. The fireplace on the courtyard doesn’t work.

Elegant and spacious yet cozy and comfortable. Best location: Right in the middle of historic Savannah and short walks to Forsyth Park and all our favorite restaurants (Clarys Cafe, Gryphon and Six Pence Pub). Two suggestions: bigger coffee maker and larger fitted sheets. .
