Guest Access:

Guests have the second floor apartment, the back porch and balcony, the shared courtyard and rear staircase, and the street parking in front of and behind the building on East McDonough Street, metered the same as Unit A. The front entrance and the back patio are shared with the other unit. The check-in guide in the Guest App has the details for getting in.



The building also houses other guests, so please keep noise down and treat the space and the neighbors with respect. Quiet hours are 8 PM to 8 AM. Pets are not allowed. Parties and events must be coordinated with us in advance, and breaking the house rules can end the reservation without a refund.



The Neighborhood:

The apartment is in the heart of Savannah's Historic District, right beside Crawford Square, with Troup Square a short walk away and Forsyth Park about a 15 minute walk. The Starland District is a quick walk, and the river and the heart of downtown are about a 20 minute walk or a 5 minute Uber. A Kroger grocery store and many restaurants and cafes are within walking distance. You are close enough to walk to everything, and far enough removed to have some peace when you come home in the evening.



Getting Around:

You can walk to most of the Historic District, downtown and the Starland District. Forsyth Park is about a 15 minute walk, and River Street is about a 20 minute walk. North Tybee Beach is about a 15 to 20 minute drive.



Ubers are easy to find, and a free shuttle runs anywhere in the Historic District from the head of Forsyth Park, about four blocks away.



Parking is metered street parking on East McDonough Street, in front of and behind the building, the same as Unit A. It is shared with residents, first come, first served, with no assigned spots. Meters run 8 AM to 8 PM, and parking is free all day on Sundays and from 8 PM to 8 AM on other days. Pay with the ParkSavannah app: open the app, enter the code on the parking spot, and pay. Watch for the posted street sweeping signs and move your car to the opposite side of the street when needed. A city parking pass is also available through the visitor center.
