Perfect for a girls weekend!

We came to Savannah for a girls trip and this house was perfect! The location is close to the airport, downtown Savannah and the beach. There was plenty of room for us and has the best views. The pool/patio is large and perfect for a relaxing day. Lisa was quick to respond to our questions leading up to and during our stay. We would definitely recommend this property!

Great spring weekend getaway!

We stay at a lot of nice VRBO houses, and this was among our favorites. The fishing and kayaking right from the dock are great activities. And the house is well maintained and functional, plus spacious with great views. Lisa is easy to communicate with and super nice. We hope to be back!

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!

Charming house on the river

Absolutely wonderful property for a long weekend with friends. The house had ample space for 3 couples and well-stocked kitchen to make breakfast and lunches. The views from the deck are stunning, and the neighborhood is quiet and serene. Excellent communication with the host Lisa. Absolutely recommended!

Perfect Weekend!

My friends and I stayed at Moon River for a long weekend. We hung by the pool and went swimming off the dock. The owner was very helpful through the whole process and the house was even more than what we were expecting. It is just outside downtown Savannah which was perfect for what we were wanting. Can’t wait to come back!
