The Neighborhood:
You are in the Victorian District, known as Savannah's first suburb. It is 50 blocks of bright, bold Victorian architecture, with restaurants, shops and cafes close by. Many of the historic homes have been beautifully restored.
Forsyth Park is about a 10 minute walk. Cafes and a Kroger grocery store are a few blocks away. Mrs. Wilkes' Boarding Room is close, and 700 Drayton and Crystal Beer Parlor are a short walk or Uber ride away. River Street and City Market are about a 25 minute walk.
You do not need a car here. You can walk, ride or bike around this part of town. Once you book, we send you recommendations on what to do, see, eat and drink in Savannah.
Walk through the squares to shop local retailers, grab a coffee, or sit on a bench and enjoy the Savannah scenery.
Getting Around:
Savannah is a small city and you can walk most anywhere from here. A free trolley runs through downtown (see ConnectTheDot for routes).
Your unit has an off street parking pad behind the backyard, reached from the alley. It is well lit and fits one vehicle. There is no garage. Street parking nearby is free. Please watch the street sweeping signs, which post the sweeping times. If your street is being swept that day, move your car to a street that is not, so you do not get a ticket.
