Our diverse neighborhood is also undergoing renovations, but is usually a quiet place, with several homes that still need working on. We offer many options, including 30, 60 and 90 day rentals for corporate, tourists, construction workers, event people, travelers from around the world and local guests and SCAD students. Commercial use of our home is prohibited unless you have WRITTEN permission prior to your stay from the owners.

Beautiful Eclectic Victorian
Perfect for a long weekend girls' trip to visit our friend in Savannah. The house is really neat - so intricately decorated! Had everything we needed. The neighborhood is not as updated as you see closer to downtown but we (4 women) felt perfectly safe. Cheap uber rides to downtown.

11 women from Ohio spending St Patrick's weekend in Savannah, and it was the best time. Our host was very responsive to our questions and the house was clean and had everything we needed. We were able to walk to some sites and eateries and was just a short ride downtown. Thank you Shana!

Good location, price, and space
Tip- if you need something, go to the Kroger. It is very nice, and the convenient stores in the area are rough. The decor is as advertised, so don't be surprised by that. Good amount of space. Good sized dining room table that you can't see in the pictures. In addition to central air, lots of ceiling fans, dehumidifiers, and window unit ACs which is nice for Savannah summers. House and restrooms are older, but that is how this area of Savannah is.

Quaint old two story
Very quaint and quirky old house. Very nice interior and plenty of room for the 8 guys we had for the bachelor party. It's a bit of a walk to the historic riverside district but worth it. We had a great stay! The owner was extremely helpful and kindly answered all my questions.

Wonderful Wedding Adventure
Our daughter got married on the Riverboat Cruise so we needed a place to not only sleep at night, but host a very small bridal brunch the morning of the wedding. This home was just right. it's location is perfect if you don't mind a bit of a walk to the sights. We chose to drive to our different locations; with ease. Again, wonderful location. Do not expect country living - there are city noises and city parking. We did have to move our vehicles the first night; for street sweeping. However, the home owner gave us a heads up and the neighbors were very friendly to also warn us and offer parking suggestions. We basically parked around the corner on a different street - it was so simple. And it must be said, we never once felt that we were in an unsafe location. The kitchen is large and fully stocked with everything from an air fryer down to a wonderful coffee station. I brought a few specialty serving dishes from home but otherwise, all we needed was provided. Because we did have extra guests arriving for a day, I did bring extra paper towel and toilet paper roles. However, there really was no need. The home was pleasantly stocked - including bath soaps / shampoos and ample amounts of bath towels. The home is "mature in years" so do not expect perfection that you would get in a new construction. With that being said, we truly enjoyed the uniqueness of the home due to it's age. The home owner is absolutely lovely - she was quick to answer emails / questions / and left a very detailed notebook of home rules and restaurant suggestions. Our family would definitely stay in this home again.

Great Stay for Bachelorette Party
It was a great experience in Savannah! We were a short drive from Forsyth Park and River Street. We had some girls walk and some drive, it was all a great experience. House was very nice, and it was a great overall stay. The hostess did tell us she was going to come by once we arrived because she likes to meet people who were staying there. I've never had a host say that before, but she didn't end up coming by. Overall, it was a great stay and I would highly recommend!

Fun, quirky house
Plenty of space for our group of six. The kitchen had a lot of extras that made it easy to make breakfast and late night snacks. Loved starting my morning reading in the porch swing before the rest of the crew woke up. We walked downtown the first night to explore and took an inexpensive Uber back. The rest of the time we drove. Also an easy drive to Tybee Island from the property. Great communication with the owner.

Unique and great for groups
Came here for a bachelorette party and it was perfect! The house was clean and felt safe; and we thoroughly enjoyed the vibe. We were also able to walk to Forsyth Park! The only things we noticed is that the parking situation can be a little difficult and that there was only one futon. We had a great trip!

Great Stay In Savannah GA
My husband and I frequent Savannah usually at least once a year. This year we brought the daughter and her boyfriend with us to celebrate the daughter's 21st birthday. We loved this charming home. All of the rooms had their own theme and were all very comfortable. There were plenty of linens to use along with plates napkins and utensils. The backyard is like a little magical escape at night when its all lit up and the front porch is great for relaxing and people watching. We were a little less than a mile from downtown and about 25 minutes from Tybee. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again!

Downtown gem
Amazing old house with so much space for a big group! 6 of us traveled to Savannah and loved being able to walk to most places we wanted to go. At the end of the night when it was late we didn't feel as safe in that part of town walking home, but the Uber ride was quick and affordable. The beds were comfortable and all the fun lamps and decorations in the house made it so fun. The only thing we wish we would have known before is that they don't have any hangers or closet space so if there's an outfit that needs to be hung up just bring a hanger and hang it in the bathroom! Everything else was amazing we had a great time.

A Great Time!
Me and a group of friends went to experience our first St. Patrick’s Day in Savannah and the house exceeded our expectations! The house was wonderful. We really enjoyed hanging out in the nice weather in the backyard. The host communicated with us in a timely manner and gave great recommendations for places to go and eat. Overall was an incredible trip and would definitely book again.

About the host

Hosted by Shana Harrison

Host profile image
Meet our resident cat! This cat has adopted us, so please feel free to feed her when you are staying with us! There is cat food provided. We are starting a fund for the neighborhood cats as we now take care of six others! We also have donated days in our home for local hospice, if they should need. My husband first introduced me to Savannah in 2010. He had lived in Savannah previously, and because we both had lived overseas, knew that I would love the European feel of Savannah. It was the same reason he was drawn to it. We first came to enjoy the beautiful city, but we kept coming back because it fascinated us and we decided to start looking for a place to have as a vacation home. We saw many properties, but this one spoke to us so we finally decided to purchase this home. We had been living in NC at the time and this was our type of place for many reasons. We love the haunting feeling of Savannah, the great food, the eclectic vibe that is here. It is a place that young and old can enjoy and by having our home here, allows us to enjoy this as well. We want this place to be the same for you! Please take note, Oreo, the cat, is a strictly outdoor cat and is not ours. She is not allowed inside the house as I am highly allergic to any animals.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I kept coming back to this property in our search for a retirement home. This house reminds me of being in Europe, and I love the eclectic feel of the city. The haunted quality is another factor. We are very happy here, and we both feel this is our future.

What makes this property unique

Some of the best features of this house are the heart pine floors, the open staircase, the lush citrus trees, as well as the sense of peace we have when here. We love a comfortable home, so if you are looking for a place you can relax and enjoy, this is it. Even though our place is a Victorian home we allow the eclecticness of Savannah to add charm to it. It doesn't hurt that we are close to everything either! My husband is in law enforcement, so security is a must! We have outdoor motion lights, outdoor only cameras, as well as an 8 foot fenced in backyard. We also like how convenient it is to shopping, tours, the beach, restaurants, and River Street. Much of the furniture in this house has been distressed by hand by myself, as I do enjoy repurposing furniture! I love a good find, as well as furnishing either with pictures of places we have been, or knick knacks we brought back from Europe, Asia and Africa. This house feels lived in without feeling cluttered. We have enjoyed giving each room in the house special treatment, in that we made each room stand out in its own way. It is eclectic as well, but we allowed for the beauty of the Victorian home to stay, as that is part of what we fell in love with it for. We also tried to take into account people who would need high speed internet and we have games and books for both adults and kids to use. Feel free to borrow a book to take to the beach! I keep a manual in the dining room full of helpful information in the dining room, so if you want to know local restaurants and addresses to them, I have it. Need a church, that is there too. Want some local haunts? Fun entertainment, all there. And we even have local grocery stores for those of you who would rather eat in than out! My kitchen has a good many of the normal cooking utensils as I love to cook but if you want to make sure before your stay, please feel free to ask! If I don't have it, I may want to pick it up!
