At the same time, unique corrugated metal cabinets make this a one-of-a-kind kitchen. Find everything you need to cook in the kitchen, including a full suite of appliances, cookware, dishware, and utensils. Directly off the kitchen is a small dining space with a steeple-style roof line wrapped in metal and large windows looking out into the large backyard.

Looking for fine dining and a great vibe? Head over to Local 11 Ten and their chic rooftop bar and lounge, The Perch. Enjoy handcrafted cocktails and delicious dishes. The Perch is open year-round and features gas heaters for cooler winter days. Take an adventure outside of the neighborhood by visiting one of Savannah’s many museums. Mercer-William’s House Museum, Savannah African Art Museum, American Prohibition Museum, and many more are just minutes away. Tap into the artistic nature of Savannah by stopping into Savannah’s College of Art and Design Museum of Art. Want to get more hands-on and make some memories? Try blowing glass at Hostess City Hot Glass, a perfect time for the whole family. Not enough time to walk all the sights of Savannah? Take it all in at once while riding or biking. We are just minutes from Old Town Trolley Tours of Savannah and Savannah Bike Tours. Check out the city’s skyline from the water by jumping on one of the Savannah Belle’s ferries, with multiple stops all along Savannah’s riverfront.
Getting Around: Are you driving into town? The shack has one off-street parking space in the gravel driveway at the back of the home. Getting around is easy with walkable streets, bike rentals, and Uber/Lyft service. Jump on Savannah’s public transit system with the Barnard & Anderson SB stop just a 2-minute walk from the home.

I loved the Chicken Shack! It was so cute, so cozy and very comfortable! And very clean. I loved having the private yard and parking and loved the screened porch as well. I really appreciated the privacy. The house has everything one could need. I loved the layout of the house as well. The location was very good, right by Forsyth Park and a super quick drive to the heart of the downtown action. Chase was wonderful with the communication about the property. Easy to communicate with and very quick to respond. I have stayed at different properties throughout Savannah when I visit my niece who goes to SCAD and this will now be my go-to place!

The yard was perfect for our dogs, hard to find in that area.Hosts were great. The place was unique and cozy.The park was a ten minute walk, river was about a half hour, we parked and didn't mind the walking, so we didn't drive all weekend.

This property is wonderful! It is is cool and correct in its title of eclectic. We loved it. It is in a busy neighborhood so quite a bit of street noise. The yard for dogs is great. We liked the privacy of a backyard that was locked from the inside. The only bed is queen size but the couch works too. The house is spectacular and we were able to check in early. Only 10 minutes from the bay front.

It was super easy to find & check-in process was a breeze. The home is adorable & the eclectic decor give it a delightful flair.We very much appreciated our puppy being able to join us & with a secure, gated, spacious backyard & back porch, she was able to live her best life, visiting her Mama's most favorite getaways.A Comfortable bed, nice bathrooms & everything that you could need.Most importantly, the parking couldn't be more "on-site" & it was nice having our truck & belongings so accessible & easy loading up.All around, two thumbs up!God is Good, all the time.

We loved the chicken shack! We will definitely stay again. Nice yard and screened in porch and a private drive for parking. Home had everything we needed and more! Love the funky, retro vibe yet everything is fresh and new. House was spotless and pet-friendly - with a nice big fenced in yard. We’ll be back for sure!

Fantasic stay and location!
We loved staying at the Chicken shack it was the perfect location close to Forsyth park where we walked to grab coffee & breakfast at Collins Quarter almost everyday of our trip. The hosts were friendly and responsive - we had to check in a day late due to some unexpected delays and they were easy to keep updated via text. The home itself is well stocked, clean and just overall a fun unique place to stay! The yard was amazing - nice and sunny during the day, having a driveway made us feel super safe parking the car and just walking everywhere. Lots of extra pillows and blankets and even soaps in the shower & a hairdryer under the sink was a nice touch! The bedding was soft clean and comfortable- We used the washer / dryer a few times since we wanted to pack light so that was great! Highly recommend this affordable funky stay in Sav!
