About this property
Traveler's Retreat: Your Refuge In the Old Town
Traveler's Retreat is a quiet cottage on a beautiful neighborhood street in Historic Savannah. Just a few minutes walk from Forsyth Park, this Beach Institute gem is a refuge from the rush and the throngs of the downtown. Set back amongst the squares and side streets of Old Savannah, with its lush, private courtyard and cool, diffused light, our hope is that you will find that the Retreat is the perfect place to recharge after a long day of salt and sun on Tybee, or seeing the sights in downtown.
The master bedroom has a custom made king bed, and en suite bathroom. The second bedroom has a queen bed, and the main bathroom has a clawfoot tub and shower. The kitchen is newly updated, with an electric range, oven, and microwave, and all the amenities you will need to make yourself at home. The couch in the living room folds out to comfortably sleep two more, and there is a dining room off of the kitchen that seats six.
Washer/dryer, television, linens, towels, shampoo, body wash, and conditioner are provided. And if you are bringing equipment like kayaks, bikes, or items for the beach, we have a separate storage building on the property to keep your belonging secure without bringing the great outdoors inside with you.
Traveler's Retreat is your private residence in Savannah, and it's good for couples, families with kids, and groups of friends.

We had a great stay here. The house was lovely. We had everything we needed and it is located in a quiet area, but still close enough to everything to walk. Parking was easy and we had no issues checking in.
Wonderful stay, property was very clean and decorated with art and natural materials exactly as we would wish. The host friendly and helpful. We had no problems with parking and moved our car as suggested by the host. Particularly appreciate the excellent lighting, good for reading and rarely found in rental properties. Also appreciated the wooden floors, nice area rugs and sweet front porch. We could walk everywhere and just a quick 1/2 mile walk to the grocery store. We hope to come back and stay here again.
Just as advertised! Clean, quiet 2 bedroom home, within the historic district. Easy walk to parks, museums, and strolling through the district. About a 20 minute walk to the river district, which was fine for us. There's also a free shuttle that picks up a couple of blocks away
We had a wonderful stay. We were able to meet up there with my brother and his wife to celebrate his and my birthday!The location was perfect. However, we should have taken an Uber for going downtown and to River Street. The parking fees were ridiculous. Thank you so much, we had a great stay!
Great Savannah home base in historic walkable neighborhood.
Our stay was wonderful and the house was perfect for a home base for exploring . Well appointed with all the amenities you need.

About the host
Hosted by Jack Dillon
My wife and I met while traveling, and have continued to try to see as much of the world as we can together. We make our home here in Savannah, Georgia, now, and have just had our first child. So now the world has to come to us, for a little while. We hope that you enjoy Savannah, as we do, and that this property provides you with a jumping off point to a new adventure.
Why they chose this property
Stay here, in a little part of Savannah that feels like Savannah. This is an old home on an old street, with plenty of space to stretch out, and everything you need to be comfortable. You could choose to "see" the Historic District, or you could choose to be "in" the Historic District. We hope you choose to stay at our place.
