Lucky Savannah was great to work with and the historic home was incredible. To know we were staying in a home where the owner helped shape American history was really special! We didn’t rent a cat at all and spent entire weekend walking to see all the sites. Numerous restaurants & bars to choose from. Make sure you visit St John the Baptist cathedral & the speakeasy underneath The Old Pink House - a blast!! Can’t wait to return!!

The place was nice, but the beds were rock hard which made for long night and sore hips.

Other then hard beds and only three comfortably chairs in the living room, We liked our stay.

Quick getaway

Good location, walked all over Savannah! For those that don’t know, parking is usually an additional cost about everywhere in Savannah. Paid parking is available right in front of the house - Savannah has a nice app for your phone that makes it easy.

Perfect historic cottage

Beautiful, historic cottage. We felt like we had stepped back in time. Rooms were roomy and comfortable. The living room only accommodates 3 people, which was tough for 3 couples. The downstairs tub was uneven, so be careful when showering. This cottage was close to everything and we walked everywhere.

Charming House in the Quiet Side of the North Historic District

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We went to Savannah to celebrate a friend's 30th birthday. The house's location felt very central and very walkable to our activities. The beds were comfy and the house was quite clean with easy check-in and check-out instructions. The house included a binder with the historic restoration process, which was a cool bonus. We didn't experience anything spooky during our stay, but maybe the next time we come to visit Savannah!

Such a charming historic home

The George Jones cottage is an adorable little historic home. It was well appointed and very comfortable for my husband and I and our two teens. The location was perfect for us. It is walking distance to most everything in downtown while also being just far enough away from the noise and hustle and bustle of Broughton Street. It was very easy to find parking right in front of the house. Every day, in the area was very safe and quiet. If you’re looking for modern luxury accommodations, this is not for you, but if you want an authentic experience that matches the history of Savannah, you can’t do better than this little cottage.
