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.

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.

Cute house along the water

This house was perfect for our family of 5 and our two dogs, plus an extra guest for a night. Great location between downtown Savannah and Tybee Island so we could enjoy both almost everyday. There is a dock on the property and a boat ramp not too far away so my husband and son could spend every morning (and some afternoons or evenings) on the water. The owners live next door, greeted us when we arrived and were always available to help with whatever we needed. It was a great week!

Jessica and John came with their three children, prepared to enjoy Savannah and the coastal ,waters. They trailed their boat all the way from Indiana got it launched and were ready to explore the coastal rivers and estuaries.They caught fish, crabs, cast for shrimp and spent time on the dock. When they were not fishing and enjoying the water they were visiting Tybee Island, Downtown Savannah or seeing local attractions It was so nice to see the family enjoy the cottage the dock, and the coastal waters. I think their dogs had a good time as well. Spectacular guests. Welcome back anytime

About the host

Hosted by Bill

Host profile image
As a long time, and current resident of this coastal neighborhood I have fished the waters inshore and offshore for over 40 yrs. Savannah history and culture, captured me as a young man . I enjoy all Savannah offers and get great pleasure seeing people enjoy the experience. The cottage built in 1941, is among the 1st in this neighborhood which was originally a fishing camp community. This is a Vacation property for people who enjoy fishing, the sights, sounds, history and wildlife activity. of the coast.

Why they chose this property

Wake up each morning to the spectacular river and marsh. Watching boats go by, fisherman heading out, or coming back. People fishing from their docks,crabbing, or casting for shrimp. The property is just minutes from Historic Savannah, National Parks Tybee Island's ocean beach. Historic sites, fine golf courses, tennis, and many other sites of interest.

What makes this property unique

This is a 1 1/2 acre private, wooded property, yet close to restaurants, shopping, downtown Historic Savannah and ocean beaches . Quiet and very little traffic.. I call it " COUNTRY IN THE CITY"
