About this property

Historic Home with Modern Upgrades; Urban Getaway by Lucky Savannah

  • A perfect home for a traveling couple, this luxurious retreat has a unique layout with seating areas both upstairs and downstairs. The alternating exposed brick and grey wood panel walls give a rustic feel to the industrial decor.

    You’ll find everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The first floor has a large couch and TV, a dining table for four, and a half bath tucked away under the staircase. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, beautiful dark cabinets, and a breakfast bar for morning musings.

    Upstairs is a spacious primary suite with a king sized bed and sitting area. The balcony off of the bedroom is perfect for catching a sunset, having a cup of coffee, or reading a book. The bathroom has an open shower with built-in seating and a large vanity with plenty of room to get ready for an evening on the town.

    You’ll be just a quick walk from Mrs. Wilkes Dining House on Jones Street, where you’ll find some of the best Southern home cooking in the city. Take a leisurely morning stroll through Forsyth Park to people watch while having coffee at the Sentient Bean, and don’t forget to check their upcoming events for live music and theatrical performances!

    Why Lucky Savannah Loves this Property:
    - The modern updates to this home make it a one-of-a-kind historic home with amenities you won't find anywhere else!
    - A walk down Whitaker Street will bring you to several locally owned shops, including One Fish Two Fish, Number Four Eleven, and Lily Bay Studio + Bazaar.

It was our first time visiting Savannah and it was recommended to stay downtown, close to everything. The location of this property was decent to be able to walk around town. It’s a cute space.

Spring Getaway

Charming carriage house in convient location to walk/visit Savannah sites. Check in was a bit challenging at night due to poor entry way to the house with unven brick and stepping stone lined walkway. Once settled everything was perfect with modern appliances/updates in historic house.

Lovely hidden gem!

This place exceeded our expectations! I loved how quiet and intimate it was! It felt like we were walking through a secret garden each time we came back or left. We would absolutely reserve this place again! It is conveniently located to everything! The place was clean, well decorated, and had modern amenities while still embracing the historical charm! The only critique I would give is the need for a washer and dryer, that would have made it perfect! We'll definitely be back!!

Anniversary Getaway

My husband and I enjoyed our stay with Lucky Savannah. The pictures and descriptions of the rental were accurate. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Loved being within walking distance or a short drive of local shops and restaurants. They were very accommodating and responded to our needs in a timely manner… they brought us additional towels and even a can opener per our requests. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and dish ware, glass ware, cooking ware, etc. The premise were very clean and we felt very safe Throughout our stay. Thank you for making our 26th Anniversary a memorable one.. Yes, we would recommend this rental to couples visiting the Savannah area.

Charming Carriage House in Great Location

The carriage house embodies the charm and uniqueness of Savannah. We loved having the little courtyard. The space was perfect for two people. Our only complaint was the lack of handles on the inside of the sliding bathroom doors. Other than that, we were very happy. The location is right at the edge of Forsyth Park and in the historic district. We were easily able to find parking on the street but also walked everywhere.

Perfect, spot on

We have been traveling for 3 months and this is by far the cleanest place we stayed at and the location within Savannah was exactly what we wanted. The pictures are accurate, very comfortable to stay. It is right next to Forsyth park and easy walking to anything you would want to see, even the river front is about 15 minutes. Felt very safe and we found free parking on Hutchingdon, two streets away a 5 minute walk. Make sure to pay attention to signs and when they sweep the street you may have to move your car to the other side of street. There is a little lane adjacent to property to pull into to unload suitcases etc, can't park there though. Currently there is not a washer or dryer which would be helpful, looks like they may be trying to add it in. Also the lower bathroom is not very private but staying with my spouse so no big deal. (I did need to use a suction cup hook on mirror to hold the hand towel there was no place to hang it and sink area was small.) I would highly recommend this place and when we visit Savannah in the future definitely will be returning here.

nice, quiet spot for a couple with no kids

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we've stayed in various rentals throughout savannah trying to find the place we want to keep returning to. this one almost fit the bill as it was in an excellent location with ample parking and was relatively quiet. bonus for not having to worry about hearing other people clomping around at all hours of the day since this is it's own stand alone property. the only blemish in our stay was the shower situation. the shower upstairs was an exercise in frustration in that we never got it to work. fortunately there is a shower downstairs too but it's one of those rain showers that are pretty in theory but ridiculous in practice. but if you don't mind that type of shower, then i'd highly recommend staying here! maybe by the time you stay here, they'll have fixed whatever chaos is happening with the upstairs shower!

Peaceful Retreat with Everything We Needed

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was perfect! It was roomy and cozy, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Nights were quiet, bed was extremely comfortable, showers were clean, and air conditioners on both floors were quiet and worked well. The courtyard and balcony were beautiful places to enjoy a cup of coffee or eat dinner leftovers. Forsyth Park was a block away so we visited often to enjoy a view of the fountain, the Sunday Farmers Market, and receive palm roses from street vender, Will. We felt safe because someone was always around walking their dog or jogging. Location is across the street from the Mercer Williams House Museum, a few blocks from great coffee - Origin Coffee Bar, best coffee I ever had! and the Sentient Bean. We walked most of the time, used free DOT bus and free ferry, and Uber to places farther away like Tybee Beach. Highly recommend this rental for a relaxing and memorable stay in Savannah!

Reviewer Comments: My wife and I stayed for a few nights to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary and could not have happier with our selection of this property. We walked everywhere and even though the River front was a quite few blocks away, it was easy as there were so many squares on the way to explore. Savannah is truly an outdoor museum with so much to see. Highly recommended.

40th Anniversary

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I planned to spend our 40th anniversary in Savannah. After reading several reviews online we decided on 443 Whitaker Lane. The area was perfect, one block from Forsyth Park and really close to many of the Historic homes. We found the property without issue. Entering through the gate (had to jiggle the key) entering the courtyard was really nice (area with the patio above was nice in the rain) The apartment was directly on our left but required following the path around to the entry door. (Again jiggle the key) the apartment was really nice and had that new old theme down pat. Upstairs large bedroom and bath were really nice and the kin size bed was the most comfortable we have had while traveling. Although there were manors that shared the courtyard (we saw them at a distance),really the apartment was like our own private getaway. We sat on the upstairs balcony in the mornings and had coffee while enjoying the treetop view of the courtyard, the street and the breeze. The AC was a little loud but not terrible (most mini split units seem to have fan noise) and did keep our room comfortable. We cooked our breakfast every morning and the kitchen seemed well stocked. Overall we had a wonderful trip and look forward to our return to Savannah and hopefully Whitaker Street next year.

Terrific Location & Property

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is perfectly located in historic savannah. Easy walking distance to great restaurants and most historic sites. The restoration of this unit was very well done with upscale finishes and classic design. Im a builder and appreciate what they did here. The bedroom suite is fabulous with lots of space and great bathroom. Kitchen has newer but used appliances and is pretty well equipped. There are a couple of quirky issues that may or may not be important to renters. The HVAC systems has two split units and the one upstairs was not working so they had a portable unit vented through the window. Downstairs unit was a bit load. The property is on a busy street so there is some street noise for lite sleepers. For some reason non of the kitchen cabinets had shelves limiting pantry storage and two cabinet door panels missing. I'd strongly recommend the owner correct these issues resulting in a completely amazing property. I'd also add a broom or vac and upscale the paper products. There were no coat hangers when we arrived but Luicky Savannah responded quickly with some. Overall very pleased with this VRBO and would rent it again.

As others have mentioned, the AC unit upstairs is quite noisy, but the white noise machine we take everywhere helped to drown it out. We enjoyed sitting on the upstairs balcony which overlooks the courtyard. The location is great. There is so much to see and do in this area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a wonderful property. An 1850's home that's been tastefully updated, and an ideal choice for a couple. My wife and I loved the contemporary kitchen, stylish bathrooms, and icy air conditioning. Gratefully the lovely upgrades do not diminish the home's antebellum charm. The property is flanked by a gorgeous, private garden that gushes with Spanish moss and lush tropicals. You'll be steps away from the Mercer-Williams house and Forsyth Park. If I could change anything about the property, I'd install a washer/dryer. Regardless, this is a splendid home in a truly enchanting city. Highly recommended.

A few things - The mini split a/c units were annoying. They are loud and the remotes are confusing. Not sure if they were pre-programmed. The upstairs was consistently warm no matter what we did. The downstairs was consistently cold. . The gate and home entrance locks were very temperamental. The road is fairly busy, all hours of the night. Overall, our experience was good and we liked the home.
