We found the boathouse a perfect place to get away for a few days to relax and enjoy the Savannah area. We highly recommend the Bread and Butter restaurant, a short distance away. The owners of the Boathouse provided for all of our needs, and the place was very clean. Highly recommend!

The location was perfect for visiting Savannah. It is well kept and the decor and theme made for an enjoyable stay. It was very private and felt like a home away from home. We met Brian and he showed us the dock and made us feel like family. This spot is a hidden gem and a great spot to celebrate an anniversary. We loved our stay! Thank you Brian and Patsy!

Brian and Patsi have created the perfect place to stay, nice and comfortable, with attention to detail. The Boathouse is just an awesome place to kick back and relax. Everything seemed to be well thought out and the decorative touches were beautiful. The location is perfect as well - just a short drive to Savannah and Tybee Island.
