The Neighborhood:
You are in the Victorian District, known as Savannah's first suburb. It is 50 blocks of bright, bold Victorian architecture, with restaurants, shops and cafes close by. The neighborhood is a mix of restored historic homes and everyday Savannah life.
Forsyth Park is about a 5 minute walk. On foot from the apartment: Kroger grocery store 3 minutes, Mate Factor coffee shop 4 minutes, Collins Quarter at Forsyth 7 minutes, 700 Drayton 9 minutes. Mrs. Wilkes' Boarding Room and Crystal Beer Parlor are a short walk or rideshare away. River Street and City Market are about a 25 minute walk.
You do not need a car here. You can walk, ride or bike around this part of town. Once you book, we send you recommendations on what to do, see, eat and drink in Savannah.
Walk through the squares to shop local retailers, grab a coffee, or sit on a bench and enjoy the Savannah scenery.
Getting Around:
Savannah is a small city and you can walk most anywhere from the Peach House. A free trolley runs through downtown (see ConnectTheDot for routes).
Your unit has one assigned parking spot on a private pad behind the building, reached from the alley. Street parking nearby is free. Please watch the street sweeping signs, which post the sweeping times. If your street is being swept that day, move your car to a street that is not, so you do not get a ticket.
Other Things to Note:
This is a second floor unit and the only way up is by 20 stairs with handrails. Please be sure everyone in your group can climb them.
