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!

Relaxing retreat in a beautiful setting! We didn’t do a lot of cooking (too many fun eateries to try) but always made breakfast (wonderful supply of spices available:). Bedroom suite so charming with a balcony deck to listen to the birds in the morning and enjoy a coffee. So many beautiful decorations added to the charm
