Pet Friendly Cottage In Thunderbolt w/ Parking + Large Yard by Lucky Savannah
Fishermen's Cottage is an adorned family heirloom built in 1950 for a local market owner in Thunderbolt Island. Recently restored and designed by the market owner's loved ones, life has been brought back to this cozy, stylish, home to share with our Lucky Guests! You'll find yourself within walking distance to the Wilmington Island River to watch unforgettable sunsets, outstanding restaurants, and much more.
From the eye-catching curb appeal, to the quintessential front porch, this quaint and charming cottage stands out amongst the rest. As every true southerner knows, the front porch of a home is made for sipping sweet tea, but you're welcome to enjoy a morning cup of joe or evening glass of wine while feeling the breeze of the Wilmington Island River. Stepping inside, you'll be transported back to 1950 but pleasantly surprised by the sophisticated and thoughtful appointments, furnishings and fixtures. The cozy living room is bright and airy, with an ample amount of seating for everyone to unwind after a long day of exploration together.
Beyond the living room, you'll find an alluring galley kitchen, with all of the modern day appliances and amenities one could ask for! Fitted with beautiful butcher block countertops and stainless steel appliances, you'll also find that the cabinets are stocked with everything you'll need for a home-cooked meal. Whether you need a space to get some work done, or share an intimate meal with those in your party, the adorable bistro table is set for four guests.
Both bedrooms are located at opposite ends of the home, yet each have access to the sizable bathroom. The first bedroom offers a antique, four-post queen bed and overlooks the treelined street. At the back of the home, with access to the rear deck, the second bedroom features a queen size bed and calming tones to ensure a peaceful nights rest. Emphasizing on sizable, the shared bathroom offers an ample amount of space, an original claw-foot tub, and a large marble top vanity with plenty of storage.
Just out back, guests will find a large deck just off of the kitchen, perfect for Spring and Summer evenings beneath the moonlit sky. The vast backyard is completely fenced in, which is ideal for pet owners!
Sleeping Configuration: Bedroom 1: Queen Bed Bedroom 2: Queen Bed
Parking: Three Private Parking Spaces Available

Savannah stay
This cottage was perfect for a quick trip to Savannah and Tybee island! The neighborhood was quiet and just the perfect amount away from the main crowds of Savannah. The house was clean and stocked with the check in and out process being very easy. Communication with the owners was also easy and quick. Would definitely stay here again!

Great for a quick Savannah visit!
We enjoyed our stay here! The home was so cute and was located in an awesome part of Savannah! The house was decorated nicely but it was a bit older which meant it was creaky and bedroom doors didn’t close all the way. Not a huge problem but a little difficult if staying with small children.Overall, it was great

Nice house
The curb appeal was nice but just that. The house is at the street. Beautiful inside but the free standing tub needs safety rail to get in. Very high. Unfortunately i wouldnt recommend if ontent is to sit in backyard. The boat repair business behind opens at 7 am and the workers waved to me every morning . Property needs to replace 6ft fence for 10+. Other than that very nice.

Super Cute Cottage!
The cottage was super charming and exactly as pictured. Really nice renovation for this historic home/area. It was a great location for visiting downtown Savannah and then coming back to a quit residential neighborhood. We loved the yard for our Aussie although grass would've been nicer than the existing dirt. It was hard not to track it back into the house. But a small price to pay for a place we really enjoyed. We will definitely stay here again!

A little disappointed, not recommended for older folks
Positive: Nice little neighborhood with some good restaurants. Good appliances. Comfortable mattress. fenced in yard for our dogs. Reasonable price.
Negatives: No lighting in the backyard, felt unsecured. Bathroom doors would not close all the way. Old soaking style tub was slippery and no bath mat supplied. Could not take a long soak because plug for tub did not work. Shower curtains were at least 6 inches too long and created a fall hazard. One bathroom door knob came off during our stay and we lost time waiting on repairs. The sitting room furniture was not very comfortable and the boat repair place right behind it is quite loud early in the morning.
We enjoyed Savannah and the Thunderbolt neighborhood. The price was reasonable.

Charming & convenient cottage
Bright, comfy living and sleeping rooms and super well equipped & thought out kitchen. Everything was either brand new or a charming artifact that made the cottage welcoming.
The only glitch was in the management's app, which said the entry code would be available in a non-existent tab. On our arrival date the code was provided by them via text and over the phone.
