A Fun, Family Getaway

The Moon River House provided all our family needed for an amazing week away. From fishing on the dock to soaking up the sunshine by the pool, there was so much for everyone to enjoy. Let’s also talk about location! The house was in perfect distance to both Tybee and Savannah, allowing us to visit both the beach and historic landmarks.Above all, Lisa was wonderful to work with and was quick to respond if we had any questions. We look forward to coming back!

Beautiful peaceful place!

I cannot say enough about this wonderful rental. Truly we stay in many wonderful VRBO rentals, but this was one of the best! Started and ended our days on the back porch with its fabulous (peaceful) river view. In between had easy access to wherever we wanted/needed to go thus excellent location. House has so many extra touches; wine cooler, ice maker, air pump (for pool floats), kayaks, fishing poles...whatever one needed seemed to be there. The lovely surroundings (front and back) added to the comfortable and welcoming feel of this exquisite home. You can't go wrong with a stay at Moon River House.

Great home! Perfect location! That view 😍!

Lisa was awesome! The home was stocked with many extras like hand soap at every sink, dishwasher detergent, laundry pods, paper towels and napkins etc… which made settling in to the very comfy home that much easier! The kitchen was well stocked with nice pots and pans, serving platters and also condiments that you typically don’t get in a home rental. We cooked all meals at home. Very comfortable beds too. Would definitely recommend and stay there again!
