About this property

Rare River Street w/Balcony, Historic, Luxury, Affordable, 2/2, Loft STVR00088

'Savannah, where every house is a museum of sorts, every acre a romantic tomb preserving our collective Southern past. In Savannah it is useless to pretend we aren't all connected. And as such, you may as well grab a traveller and come along for the ride".

Beautiful historic loft on River Street with Savannah brick walls and wood floors thru-out encase this upscale modern comfortable home. Eclectic decor, enter this loft from historical (google it) Factor's Walk Alley and you will see from the foyer, large open areas for entertaining as well as your own balcony overlooking River Street and the Savannah River. Private ensuite offers a king bed. Additionally, there is a Queen Murphy Bed.

Spend hours watching cargo ships and tugboats go by as well as the activity of River Street. It is a favorite place to start your day with coffee or end your day with a glass of wine.


After touring Savannah, come back to the comforts of home. This River Street loft has a beautiful private suite that offers a king size bed and private bath with slate floors and slate shower. A Murphy Bed has a comfy queen mattress. There is a second bathroom with a large shower. For your convenience, there is a full size washer/dryer and ample closet space. TV can be seen from every seat in the living area. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals, if you choose to eat in. There is a 42' high definition flatscreen TV with the option to sign into your own streaming services. The loft also has fast Wifi supplied by Comcast.

Our guests enjoy complimentary coffee, creamer and sugar, tea varieties, quality bed linens, bath towels and down comforters. Maps, menus and touring information is available for your convenience. For your pleasure, enjoy the local books about the city and history of Savannah.

A very special benefit to this loft is the lack of climbing steps to have a 2nd floor view of River Street and the Savannah River. You enter from the alley side at the front door (5 small steps) but are on the 2nd floor on the river side. This is wonderful for people who don't like climbing stairs or have difficulty with steps. You can enjoy River Street without ever leaving the loft.

You can drive right up to the door to unload your luggage or groceries then park your car in designated city parking spaces. No parking in the alley.

Spent weekend here for my daughter’s graduation and had absolutely best time. The location on the property is in the heart of the river walk , and so close to everything within walking distance. The host was very responsive and great to work with! I wish I could have find this Vrbo rental sooner instead of trying to stay at the hotels while visiting my daughter. Definitely worth staying here!

This is a great space! Right on River Street with access to everything, walk to restaurants, shops, the hop on hop off trolly or the riverboat. Fun to sit on the balcony and people watch or watch the ships. I especially enjoyed coffee and reading in the morning out there. Despite being right over the street, it is very quiet and relaxing. We were there for a wedding and getting shared ride services was super easy. Hope we get an opportunity to stay here again.

A hidden gem! Great location was terrific, an easy walk to River Street and the steps to the Historic District. The loft itself was very quaint, we had everything we needed. Loved the red door. Easy to find and convenient for parking. We used the city garage after unloading, a quick walk to get to and from.

Great Location Overlooking River Street

Perfect location. We sat on our balcony overlooking River Street. The people watching and boat traffic was always entertaining. We were able to drive right to our door to unload our luggage which was great for my elderly father. We cooked most of our meals in house and saved money by doing so. The furnishings were lovely & comfortable, especially the chairs with the ottomans! The beds were super comfortable and the place had 3 air units to keep us cool. I would definitely stay here again!

Old and New

Delightful spot with a great view of the ship traffic in a building that was one of the cotton warehouses when it was part of the original port. As a retired ship captain I took a keen interest, my wife is a master of the polite nod and smile. Coffee joint is mere steps away, what's not to like?

Great Loft overlooking River

I have enjoyed staying in this Lovely Loftseveral times over the years. I Love to see the Cargo Ships pass by on the River & People Watch on River Street. The Shops & Restaurants are close by to you wdont have to move your car. . Many activities to attend are usually available around the Historcial District.

River Watching

Great location. Marlyn was very fast with responding to a couple questions we had. Eateries and shopping easy walking. We loved watching the ships go by from our balcony! We walked the River walkway. It is a good distance to walk. We did find an outdoor elevator by Hyatt hotel and that worked out great...tired from walking around historic district..no steps to get to River St.

Great Location

We were able to walk to all the best points of interest. Parking was a challenge arriving on Sunday afternoon in a busy tourist area. It would be a good idea to give directions to the parking lot on Whitaker Street which is very close. Also, make it clear the street goes through from Bay Street to River Street because it appears to be a dead end. Really enjoyed the balcony overlooking the river. Everything we neede was available in the unit. Rugs and Curtains need cleaning. Overall, a good experience.

Perfect Place to Stay in Savannah!

We all really loved staying in this loft. The beds were comfortable and it's amazingly quiet given the busy location on River Street. The host was very, very quick to respond to a question that I had. It was great being able to walk to most of the things we wanted to see and do, and the places we wanted to eat (recommend Chart House and the Little Duck Diner). We had no problem finding parking and it's free after 8 and on Sundays. People and ship watching from either the balcony or the river walk just outside is an enjoyable way to relax. If you are curious about the huge container ships that go by, take a port tour... it was really interesting. There is a hair dryer but it's not listed under amenities. If we ever get a chance to return to Savannah, we will definitely stay here again!

The property was bigger than expected. Even better than expected. The location absolutely perfect. No need for a car! We walked everywhere. Checkin very easy. Marlyn was great with communication.

About the host

Hosted by Marlyn Shuman

Host profile image
This is a picture of our 15 year old named "Mullet". We lost him recently and we really miss him. We highly recommend yorkie poodles. They are loving, don't shed, smart and are good lap dogs. He was always into something and we considered him our never ending 2 year old.

As managers, we work hard to make sure our guests have a memorable getaway, in a good way! We enjoy sharing our loft with guests and especially during honeymoon, birthday, girls weekends, anniversaries celebrations. We work hard to make sure every guest leaves wishing they had booked a longer vacation.

Why they chose this property

Savannah is 3rd best city to vacation according to Travel and Leisure now. There is no other place like it. Few cities have this kind of history, architecture, gardens and flowers, ghost stories, friendly people, southern charm, museums, theatre, art and the best food. There is something special to see every season of the year. If you have never visited Savannah, make time, you won't regret it. In some ways, Savannah is like traveling back in time. This loft is THE perfect location, has THE perfect view and is THE perfect place to stay when you visit Savannah.

Our guests started leaving us little love notes in the brick mortar. I guess there are hundreds hidden there now. A fun activity to pass the time inside and feel free to leave us a new note.

What makes this property unique

There are very few balconies on River Street where you can actually sit. A great place to watch the world go by any time of day or night. We are located in the last privately resided building on River Street. Close to the Port of Savannah provides much to see as the very large cargo ships come into port. So far, we have counted 9 high cargo trailers on these ships. Check out "shipfinders" app which tells you the size, country, what it is carrying, etc on these floating buildings.
