Perfect little getaway
This is the cutest cottage at the perfect location. With the off street parking, we walked everywhere! The cozy cottage was the just the right size we needed for our family - 2 adults and 2 kids and our furbaby! We would definitely consider staying here again! Felt like a second home for sure!

I appreciated having a spot to park my car. The outdoor space was perfect as well. It was full of butterflies! Overall, I thought it was quiet for being right in the middle of everything. I would return to this same place if I am ever in Savannah again.

Good location and pet friendly
Small cottage with a good location. Off street parking for one car (my Tundra just fit without encroaching on sidewalk). Fenced small back yard for pups. Worked perfectly for me, wife and two labs.
