About this property

Perfect Historic Home for a Family on Vacation with Parking by Lucky Savannah

Built in 1853, Canterbury Main overlooks the Live Oaks of Chatham Square. With three bedrooms and one and a half baths, this home can comfortably accommodate up to six Lucky guests in true Southern fashion.

Soaring 12-foot ceilings, wood beams, exposed brick walls, and original ornamental hearths are just some of the details that give this historic home character, all while providing the modern conveniences that make your stay the epitome of luxury. A fully outfitted kitchen with adjacent dining area has everything you’ll need to enjoy a home cooked meal. Behind original pocket doors you’ll find a tastefully appointed living room with plenty of seating and a flat screen TV.

All three bedrooms are upstairs. There are two queen bedrooms, one with a TV, and a third bedroom with a full-size bed that where you’ll feel as if you’re sleeping in the majestic oak tree right outside your windows.

The sprawling courtyard has plush landscaping, plenty of seating, and even a grill for some outdoor cooking. When you’re ready to venture out, you’ll be within walking distance to the best shopping, dining and nightlife Savannah has to offer. Beautiful Forsyth Park, the city’s largest green space and a popular location for weddings and events, is just two minutes away. Grab a burger at the nearby Crystal Beer Parlor, or taste some real Southern cooking at Mrs. Wilkes Boarding House. Wherever you may roam, you’ll have the perfect home-away-from-home to return to at the end of the day.

Why Lucky Savannah Loves this Property:
- This home can be combined with the Canterbury Garden apartment to accommodate an additional four guests.
- One private off-street parking spot, and the convenient location, mean you can come and go as often as you like.
- A full size washer and dryer is conveniently located in the upstairs full bath.

Sleeping Configuration:
Bedroom 1: Queen Bed
Bedroom 2: Queen Bed
Bedroom 3: Full Bed

Perfect location for a Girls Getaway!

Wow! What a perfect location for a Girls Getaway! We absolutely loved the location of the home in the historic district. It was only a short walk to some great neighborhood coffee shops and maybe 20 minutes to the city market and river area. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk through the historic squares and went to the Farmer's Market at Forsyth Park. The three bedrooms are all upstairs and we were glad we only had one small suitcase each. Since there were three of us, we had a bedroom each and sharing the single upstairs bathroom worked fine. The master is very large, the middle bedroom is fine, but the third bedroom is small. I wouldn't let any of this stop you from renting. We also enjoyed the nice back courtyard and the downstairs living and kitchen areas. If we ever return to Savannah, we will stay here again!

Can’t beat the location!

A beautiful, historic home so close to Forsyth park! It was nice having a dedicated parking spot as well. It had plenty of cookware but you need to bring all of your own food items to cook with. Lucky Savannah was very accommodating with any issues or questions we had. We were a little rationed in terms of things like paper towels, Toilet paper, dishwasher pods, dish soap but we made do. The stairs are high and steep with a little bit of a loose railing so just be aware if traveling with small children. Overall we enjoyed staying here with the highest postings being location and the character of the home.

Great location but doesn't have all the things you need.

Overall we were glad we had a place like this for our visit to Savannah. The location was wonderful, separate from the river area hubbub, but still nearby to walk there, close to forsyth park and it was really cool to stay in a classic savannah building. However, while the kitchen had plenty of dishes, it had Zero cooking oil, salt & pepper..basics to cook an easy meal. Along the same lines, we stayed for 4 nights and there was only 1 packet of laundry detergent, 3 pods for the dishwasher and 1 roll of paper towels. They skimped on everything you need just to keep a house with a family running. There are also no extra blankets anywhere. We also found that there was a very musty smell if the hvac fan didnt keep moving constantly and we dealt with allergy symptoms only in the house...not outdoors at all.The plus side was that everyone was able to sleep soundly, we all had the space we needed, we were able to safely park our rental car out back and the kids could goof around out in the back patio. The internet didn't work at all, and i honestly decided not to mess with having someone come fix it. But the televisions did work and we were able to watch a couple basketball games while we were there. Not the worst since it had redeeming qualities,and we were able to go with the flow and have a great speing break but not the best it could have been either.

Great Historic Savannah Pad

We loved this 3 bedroom home in the heart of historic Savannah! It’s beautifully decorated with old hardwood floors and a character-filled (slightly slanted) wood staircase. We had a bit of a challenge having the wrong front door code in the instructions (& after we called too) & the wrong parking sign info, but the back door code worked great. I highly recommend this place.

Lovely historic townhouse

Elegant traditionally decorated townhouse with a lot of beautiful artifacts that I would imagine with toddlers or little kids could be worrisome for parents in regards to possible accidents. Very clean comfy bedrooms and perfectly located in a quiet square but walking access to restaurants etc I would recommend for older teens and adults and infants but not elderly or toddlers as the wooden stairs for access to the bedrooms or even to the front door are quite steep. The back courtyard is rustic and charming and parking very convenient.

Without question we will be visiting Savannah again soon and we will be staying at this property.

Fantastic City Rich with History

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Quaint historical home. Must be able to do stairs. The home served out needs for a short visit. Lots of chairs through the house making some area crowded. The washer and dryer were very handy. Nice to have a dishwasher as well Mattresses were very old and not very comfortable. Take bug repellent for summer visit a bonus added touch was they provided umbrellas.

Best place we have ever stayed!

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 stayed at the Canterbury House the week prior to our daughter's wedding. What a great place! The best part was the courtyard. The house was perfect for our needs and close to everything. We met the owners when we were "moving in." They are fabulous! I highly recommend Canterbury House, and we will be back! We enjoyed grilling fresh shrimp from Russo's Seafood Market, dining OFTEN at the Crystal Beer Parlor, dinner at The Old Pink House, a wedding rehearsal dinner at The Whitman, wedding at The Harper-Fowlkes House and wedding dinner at Vic's On the River. Public and Six Pence Pub were also excellent choices. We love Savannah and renting thru Lucky Savannah is the best way to enjoy the city.

Family Visit to Savannah

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 took a family trip to Florida, and on the way home we stopped in Savannah, a favorite of both my husband and myself. Usually we get a nice but bland hotel room. This time, I was smart and I got this whole lovely house! It was really nice to feel (for a short while) like I lived in Savannah! The home is well located and well appointed. I love the blue and white porcelain. The bedrooms are very nice and accommodated the five of us comfortably. There is a patio with a seating area and a grill, but the food in Savannah is so great, we did not use the grill. I would definitely stay at this property again. Thank you.
