Experience Savannah like you live here! Shared Courtyard! Dog Friendly!

This fully-furnished carriage house is situated in the heart of Savannah's Historic District, on the elegant and sought-after Jones Street. Located within walking distance of a variety of shops and dining options, such as Public and Six Pence Pub. Lovely Forsyth Park is also within walking distance, as are several event venues.

If you don't feel like walking, or need to go just little further to River Street, you can easily flag down a Pedicab for a quick and pleasant ride to your destination. Also available is the free Downtowner (its a local Uber paid for by the City)!

This carriage house has been a favorite lodging location of Joe Odom, a Savannah celebrity who played Paul Hipp in the film "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil." This quaint location has a lush, shared courtyard that is often visited and occupied by the the owner's two dogs, a basset hound named Leon and a poodle named Pheobe. They love company, but if you're in the mood for privacy, feel free to ask that they stay home.

This is truly one of the best locations in the city, and after staying here you will feel like a true Savannahian.

Meh
My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon at this carriage house and it was disappointing. Not only was there garbage left behind from the last residents but the amount of maintenance work going on during our stay was incredibly annoying. Waking up to people trimming the plants under the windows, the exit door being blocked by workers’ vehicles, and having the courtyard soaking wet from pressure washers was not the stay we had imagined.

The Epitome of Southern Class and Charm
Two bonuses…hidden peaceful courtyard , the epitome of southern charm, a short walk from historic places people visit from around the world. But so incredibly dog friendly. My dog Merlin was nervous from 20 hours of driving and motels but the dogs Pheobe and Leon became his friends and they played happily in the courtyard.

Lovely carriage house in a prime location
Location is incredible and we felt right at home at the carriage house. It is small but comfortable and the perfect size for our 3 day trip. We loved the visits from the doggies. The bed was a Full size so too small for my husband and I to share. He slept on the sofa and I slept in the bed. An upgraded mattress would go a long way to add to a near perfect stay. There is a bed in the loft but it wasn't an option for our middle aged knees! We will definitely stay again when we return to this lovely city.

Great carriage house
This is our second stay at this property. First time we stayed in the first floor apartment and this time in the carriage house. The location is perfect (Jones street is a stunner). The carriage house everything we needed and it was wonderful because we brought our dog. I would highly recommend this stay! Thanks again

Sweet Scape
Location, location, location, this property is perfectly located in the historic district, parking on the street was very easy and we were able to walk everywhere when we didn't feel like driving. Leon & Phoebe are very friendly and are ready to greet you when you arrive. Communicating with management was not difficult and they even gave us recommendations, instructions for access thru the garage were clear. The shared courtyard was beautiful, but a bit smelly.

We left after one sleepless night
Pretty as the pictures. But really poor sleeping conditions. Small bed attached to the wall. Also, main house has two big dogs with their door always open to sirvey/protect the backyard, our entry area. I would recommend the space only to small people without their own dog.

Wanted to Love this Place
The photos of the property are accurate - this condo is small but absolutely adorable. It's location couldn't be better - its on a safe, quiet, & gorgeous street. That being said, for all of the "if you do this, you will be fined" threat emails, we arrived to have dog-diarrhea all over the front porch. It was incredibly hard to walk in without stepping in it, we had to lift our dog so she didn't get it all over her feet. Even though the owner cleaned it up within an hour, it smelled like diarrhea for the rest of our stay - so we couldn't be outside on the rocking chair or courtyard. This location bills itself as dog friendly, but there are far more dog friendly locations in this very dog friendly city.

What a beautiful place
I went with a girlfriend for a long weekend in my favorite town of Savannah. The guest cottage is on one of the most beautiful streets in all of town. The property has a glorious little courtyard with a lovely little fountain with coy swimming around. The location was within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. I was in need of an “old fashioned coffee pot” and they went out to get me one right away! There are two sweet doggies that great you as you come and go, so it made the visit feel like home. The owner is so kind, she even gave us a ride to one of her favorite breakfast spots! My friend kept saying “I never want to leave” It is a small unit perfect for two. if I could make one recommendation is a hand towel for the kitchen but next time I will bring one with me. I can’t say enough about the joy and beauty we experienced at this wonderful little hideaway. Thank you Cora, we love your little slice of heaven. 🐝🍃

Quintessential Savannah 5 stars all day!
We absolutely loved this property! The garden is perfectly cultivated with plants and flowers and seating areas. Looks like Better Homes & Gardens cover photos I swear! I got to throw their dog a ball too :0 ) the Carriage house was perfect for three adults and had everything we needed. Close enough to everything to walk but not so close that you’re disturbed by partiers. It was a lovely experience and I would do it again!

We loved our stay at this property. They gave great instructions on how to enter, by entering from garage area. The shared courtyard was beautiful and loved sitting there 1 evening and relaxing after a long day. The bed and couch were cumfy. Shower did not have hot water, just warm, but kitchen was water hot. They had a 2nd twin bed in loft (? we saw it they had a ladder up in the rafters, so not sure about this) the dogs Leon and Phoebe were so cute. We loved when they came to greet us everyday. Great walkable location. Only complaint was the not hot shower.

Wonderful Christmas Getaway
It was a perfect space for me and my pups to burrow in for a chilly Christmas weekend. The carriage house is charming and had everything I needed for us to be comfortable. The porch overlooks a lovely secure courtyard between the carriage house and main house so it was assuring to know that the dogs could run around a bit and not get out to the street. The owner was delightful and has two darling dogs who were good companions for mine. I will definitely be back in warmer weather so that I can explore more of Savanah on foot.

This Vrbo was a perfect location with a gorgeous courtyard - great walking distance to all of downtown Savannah. It's a small space, but when you're visiting to see the city, it's a perfect place to recharge.
