We had a Mom’s weekend and it was a perfect place to stay. The courtyard in the back was a nice break from the walking around town. It’s definitely a great place for a small group. Quiet and safe neighborhood
This was this easiest rental process I have ever been through. Download an app and go. The app provided every detail for us to get in our house and once in example Wi-Fi pw, codes, checkout. It was very user friendly. Nice clean house, in walking distance to a lot of food and fun places! We had four adults on the trip and had a blast.
Adorable place in a great location. We didn't notice on the booking information there wasn't a dishwasher but made eating in with a family of 4 less than desirable (good thing Savannah has such amazing restaurants). A shade over the back bedroom skylight would improve the sleeping situation. Also, I'd suggest getting rid of the barstools and adding another comfortable chair to accommodate 4 people.
Very nice stay with my bff. Walked to everything and there was so much to see and do! Food was great. People were so friendly. The cottage is very quaint and small, yet lovely. The second bedroom appears to be a porch that has been enclosed. It was a bit warm and stuffy, but using a fan took care of this issue. Not sure how it would be in the heat of summer. But the bed was comfy and I really loved the brick walls and vintage decor. Overall a great girl’s getaway trip. Food and drinks in Savannah are awesome!! I would suggest supplying some wine glasses. But we didn’t cook, instead took advantage of the amazing nearby restaurants! I hope to return and would stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
The Wakefield Cottage was very cozy. I think it would be great for a couple with small kids. The location is perfect, walking distance to everything. The second bedroom is a bit strange. It seems like it was an add on so the heating (and I imagine cooling in the summer) doesn't work as well in the back bedroom. Also you have to walk through the main bedroom to get out of the second bedroom. There was no dishwasher. We were so happy with the management company Lucky Savannah. They were so prompt and attentive to our needs. Even brought us a large pot so I could cook a batch of soup. I would definately rent from this company again as they provided exceptional customer service which made our stay enjoyable.
This property was very cute and fitting for a weekend in Savannah. It was walking distance to everything in the historic district. The area was quiet, the courtyard was perfect for morning coffee and evening drinks. Only a couple of suggestions for your future renters: the skylight is brutal for trying to sleep past 7am after a night of drinking. Great for natural light, but not during a hangover. Also the rug in the 2nd bedroom needs to be changed or cleaned, its worn and dirty looking. We did have to scoot the living room furniture around a tidge for everyone (3 of us) to be able to see the tv- and I had to use the remote from the bedroom to control the living room tv bc the 4 that were there did not work. Overall cool place and Id stay there again despite those things. Oh- the skylight in the second bathroom is also leaking- that should definitely be inspected.

Staying at Wakefield Cottage was nice.The bathrooms need to be updated and there was no dish washer which we expected. There is a water leak in one bathroom which I think could be easily fixed. I felt safe walking around and found the location convenient. Did not move our car except to go to my meeting place.

Great location. Images make it look a bit nicer than it is, but a "comfortable" stay. No dishwasher which wasn't awful for us but if you plan to cook at home, not many "tools." Bathrooms need updating. great location.

The cottage is perfect for small parties (2 maybe 3). Bathrooms are small with not much space to put cosmetics, etc. We experienced a few problems with the tub leaking in one bathroom and a skylight leaking when it rained in the other. Unfortunately both issues needed repairs that would be intrusive to our stay so we agreed to let them fix it after we left. I'm guessing management needs to walk through the place more frequently or get better feedback from their cleaners. Cleaning people might consider sweeping the courtyard (which was fabulous) and wiping the outside furniture before new arrivals. Otherwise, the place was quaint and comfortable and close to everything (easy walking distance) but on a quiet street.

545 was the cutest little cottage perfect for a weekend away with my 2 young adult daughters. We were easily able to walk everywhere that we wanted to go and close to be able to get on the Old Town trolley for further away locations. The cottage was adorable and clean and a relaxing place to rest after our daily adventures. We will definitely be back!

Cute little house with just enough room for 4. The decor was lovely, beds comfy and kitchen had just the right items for a short weekend visit for the St Patrick’s Day parade. The pillows on the twin beds were very uncomfortable but Lucky Savannah replaced them at our request. The big disappointment was the leaky skylight in the bathroom. Of course it had to rain and my husband and I were both shocked when we stepped in water in the middle of the night during a bathroom break. We reported to the office first thing in the morning and they promptly sent someone out. The temporary fix didn’t work as it rained again and leaked again. Location was at the edge of the historic district. Would probably stay a little more central next time. 5th time to Savannah and love it more each time.

I stayed in Savanna to just get away from it all. The cottage was in the perfect location to walk all over town. Small, historic and charming
Property was not clean when we arrived but manager corrected the situation immediately.
Otherwise the house was very nice, great location and especially enjoyed the patio! Jasmine was blooming and the fragrance was wonderful!
