Such a charming historic home

The George Jones cottage is an adorable little historic home. It was well appointed and very comfortable for my husband and I and our two teens. The location was perfect for us. It is walking distance to most everything in downtown while also being just far enough away from the noise and hustle and bustle of Broughton Street. It was very easy to find parking right in front of the house. Every day, in the area was very safe and quiet. If you’re looking for modern luxury accommodations, this is not for you, but if you want an authentic experience that matches the history of Savannah, you can’t do better than this little cottage.

Two friends and I stayed for a long girls weekend in Savannah and had a great time at this property! Centrally located and easy walking distance to all big attractions. The rental was clean, the managers were very friendly, and there was plenty of room for all of us to stay comfortably. Would highly recommend and look forward to coming back!

Perfect historic cottage

Beautiful, historic cottage. We felt like we had stepped back in time. Rooms were roomy and comfortable. The living room only accommodates 3 people, which was tough for 3 couples. The downstairs tub was uneven, so be careful when showering. This cottage was close to everything and we walked everywhere.

The Savannah Experience

The property has the best location. Short walk to anything and the trolley will even pick you up in route. There are a few things you should expect in a 200 year old home: the stairs are steep and uneven and the floors creek. This just added to the character of the home for us. To the owners, we did see some small ants in the kitchen and the outlet in the downstairs bathroom doesn’t work. All simple fixes! This is no way distracted us from the Savannah experience!
