We loved everything about this stay. The house was beautiful and the location couldn't have been better. Bill and his wife were wonderful hosts, and we really enjoyed meeting them. They went out of their way to make our two dogs feel welcome, which made the trip so easy for us. We'd happily stay here again and highly recommend it!

My family and I had the most wonderful stay. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and warm, and the house and property were beautiful and very nice. The pictures truly do not do it justice. The house is amazing and spacious, the property is unbelievable, the hosts that live next door are awesome, and the location couldn’t be better to experience both Savannah and Tybee. My dog, Elvis, also had a ball playing with the neighborhood dogs. I will definitely stay here again. I am very grateful for this experience.

John we get great pleasure knowing our guests at the cottage enjoy the best of classic coastal living. Visiting historic Savannah, Museums, Tybee beaches, and exploring the coastal waters and marshes. So good to see the boys fishing, crabbing and swimming off the dock. Your family and Elvis were model guests thanks for taking such good care of things. Welcome Back Anytime

We had a great time in Savannah. This home is located in the middle between historic Savannah and Tybee Island so it was perfect for our trip. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and using the crab traps. Hosts were very inviting and we had plenty of room for our dogs to run. Home has plenty of privacy on the 1.5 acres.

So glad you enjoyed your visit. The weather was perfect for spending time on the dock. We have a good number of 4 legged visitors but your Boston Terriers were the first. Shotsie ran over this evening looking for them. Hope your trip home was pleasant.

We ended up in this home unexpectedly due to a scheduling error with another host (which VRBO handled well, by the way), and we are so glad that we did. We arrived expecting a simple weekend getaway for Labor Day and left with some wonderful new friends! The homeowners, Mr. Bill and Ms. Emma live right next-door and are an absolute delight. They made us feel so at home, loved on our doggies, and just made the overall experience so nice for us. The home feels more spacious than the photos suggest, and we really like the layout. Our dogs were so happy running around the spacious yard! And our teenage boys really enjoyed themselves fishing right off the dock in the backyard. The location of this home was perfect for what we were looking for. Away from the hustle and bustle, but close to downtown Savannah and also to Tybee. It really is the perfect coastal getaway, and if you’re lucky enough to book it, don’t hesitate!

Mr Bill was an excellent host! Always available by phone and very accommodating! Will definitely be staying again! Great fishing from the dock and was able to bring my 24' boat for docking. Richardson Creek is large and deep enough to access from the major waterways in the area, also loaded with reds and trout if you fish from the property's dock.

Eric So glad you enjoyed the cottage, Very sorry the weather was not the best for your offshore fishing plans. You made the best of it at the dock. You braved the wind and caught some fish. Not surprised you caught fish at the dock it has been productive. The creek is deep and fall and winter is usually good. Let me know when you wish to come back short notice is good to get better weather forecast. Thanks for leaving the cottage in fine shape. Welcome back anytime.

We had the best time here! The owners are so kind and very friendly. Our daughter and dog loved the dock. The views are great, neighborhood is safe, and the house is so beautiful. Loved reading all the guests comments in the guest book on things to do in the area. Highly recommend this VRBO and we will hopefully return soon! Thank you
