Here Are A Few Kind Words from Our Previous Guests:

“Charming and well appointed space just blocks from downtown but quaint and quiet. Our pup enjoyed having a backyard to stomp around!” – Steve

“Really loved this place. It was perfect for the stay. Very nice and quaint. Super easy to find and good parking. Parking in the city in some areas can be a little difficult. I was fortunately able to always get a good spot here. It was very cozy and my stay was really comfortable. The hosts were great and always had a prompt and positive response. Was a nice quiet area and felt really at home during the stay. I definitely recommend and will probably be my choice for any return visits. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay.” – Charles

“Loved the space! Was very clean and cozy! Loved that it’s pup-friendly! They even have treats for your fur babies. The fenced in backyard with the little patio was so nice to enjoy our morning coffees at. The bed was very comfortable, and the location was pretty centrally located to everything you want to do in the greater Savannah area. We’ll definitely stay again, and would recommend to anyone!” – Shanise
