We had a wonderful stay. This townhome is new, clean, comfortable & spacious. The location is perfect. We liked being on the river yet away from the crowded downtown River Street crowds. But, it's all within walking distance. If this community had a pool, it would be perfect! The attention to detail from the host is wonderful. They provided little extras that made it feel like home (Q-Tips, cotton balls, make up remover pads & wipes were provided in each bathroom). The kitchen was fully stocked with everything I needed to cook small meals for my children. If you have infants or toddlers, the home provides cribs, baby gates, toys and bassinets! I was very impressed with how the host makes the space easy for families. We will return!

Great location! Very new and clean. Host provided essentials (hand soap, dishwasher pellets, extra trash bags, cooking utensils/pans etc). I am used to bringing all the random items like pan spray or foil etc, but it was a nice surprise to have a host actually have so many odds and ends available. Worst part of a stay can be running to a store every time u realize you need something for one or two uses and don’t have it. This was the best stocked rental! Also, super comfortable den furniture and bedding. Porch was lovely for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Location was perfect, easy walk to river front and River Street area. Open square areas for kids and dogs to play. Only 15-20 from Tybee for a beach day. Great parking situation with large private garage as well as front parking for additional guests. In historic district parking can be difficult so having private parking made coming and going quite easy! Would recommend this property.

Why they chose this property

Unmatched Comfort – Every bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom, Smart TV, and luxury mattress (Stearns & Foster, King Koil), topped with fuzzy blankets for a hotel-meets-home experience.

Prime Location, Peaceful Stay – Quietly tucked in Eastern Wharf, you’re steps from the river, shops, yoga, and live music — yet far enough from the noise to truly relax.

Savannah Sunsets & Shipwatching – Take a short stroll to the waterfront to watch the ships glide under the Talmadge bridge at golden hour.

Walkable Charm – Forget the car: you’re walking distance to River Street, historic squares, dining, and shopping. Alternately, if you bring the car, you have easy, free parking at the townhome for up to 2 vehicles.

Family & Friends Ready – With 3 stories and 3 private suites, it’s the perfect setup for couples traveling together, families needing space, or groups of friends wanting both privacy and gathering spaces.

An Artistic Touch – Styled with bold pops of color, curated décor, and nods to our Uncle Olan’s art and photography, this isn’t just another Savannah rental — it’s a stay with fun flair and a touch of eccentric personality.

What makes this property unique

Three Private Suites
– Each bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom + Smart TV — no awkward bathroom sharing, total privacy for families, couples, or groups.

Luxury Sleep Experience
– Outfitted with a Stearns & Foster King mattress and King Koil Queen mattresses, plus fuzzy blankets and quality linens for cloud-like rest.

Spacious 3-Story Layout (1,894 sq ft)
– Spread out across three levels: perfect for groups that want both togetherness and private retreats.

Quiet but Central Location
– Peaceful setting in Eastern Wharf, tucked away from the late-night bustle yet just steps to the river, yoga, shops, restaurants, and music.

Savannah Sunsets & Shipwatching
– A short walk to the waterfront brings you front-row views of ships gliding under the Talmadge bridge at golden hour.

Walkability at Its Best
– No need for a car — walk to River Street, historic squares, dining, and entertainment. Thompson Hotel, Squirrel’s Pizza, and a lively concert venue with food trucks are right nearby. Though we do have easy parking for up to 2 vehicles should you choose to bring them.

Family- & Group-Friendly
– Large green space nearby for kids (and dogs, if you decide later to allow them). Three levels make it easy for families and groups to travel together comfortably.

Artistic Personality
– Designed as an ode to Uncle Olan, with bold pops of color, curated décor, and playful touches that make it feel more like a boutique stay than a generic rental.
