Dog Friendly Historic Home by Forsyth w/ Private Courtyard by Lucky Savannah

Why Lucky Savannah Loves this Property:
- The beautiful private courtyard is the perfect spot to enjoy breakfast.
- This pet friendly home is just two blocks from Forsyth Park, Savannah’s largest green space.

Tucked away on Tattnall Street, Whippet house is a two-bedroom Savannah gem. Guests will enjoy the short walk to downtown's center, while having a private retreat in one of the city's oldest residential neighborhoods.

You’ll find the living room appointed with an eclectic yet warm collection of furnishings and decor from the owners' international travels. A formal dining room connects the front of house with the cheery kitchen, equipped with modern appliances and cookware for all your dine-in needs. Off the back of the home, you’ll find a private courtyard that comfortably seats four.

Both bedrooms are upstairs, each with their own full baths. The first bedroom has a Queen size bed and antique writing desk, while the second bedroom mirrors the first but with a King size bed and excellent views of historic Tattnall Street. With windows on either side of the home, Whippet House receives ample natural light during the day. Shutters and window treatments ensure privacy when wanted.

One block north lands you in Chatham Square, one of Savannah's gorgeous green spaces. Head east two blocks to historic Forsyth Park, known for its famous fountain and a popular location for weddings. Enjoy a liege waffle and latte at Mirabelle Cafe, before touring the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, located right across the street. Broughton Street, a hub of Savannah’s shopping, and River Street are only 10-15 minutes north from there, respectively.

Sleeping Configuration:
Bedroom One: Queen
Bedroom Two: King

Cockroaches everywhere, missing bedding, & they cleaned before checkout & took our things.

My husband and I were visiting Savannah with his family from the UK. We arrived late on our first night, and there was no bedding for the fold out. The property manager said the cleaner must have forgotten it so she agreed to bring it to us but it took an hour. Then we found a cockroach on a wall in one of the upstairs bedrooms. It's the south, so I apologized and they all went to bed a bit freaked out while my husband and I sat up waiting for our bedding. My mother in law slept with the light on to keep roaches away. We toured Savannah the next day - beautiful city. We came back that evening and there were two VERY LARGE palmetto bugs in the kitchen. We were planning to sit on the patio for tea but everyone was too freaked out to sit outside where there were more roaches. We found ANOTHER roach upstairs before bed that night. I called the company and asked if they had any other bnb's we could swap to, but there was "nothing clean and ready". No one slept well at all, obviously after 4 roach discoveries total. On our last morning, my mother in law found yet another roach in her shower, and opted to skip it and wait til we got back home to NC to shower. Check out is 11:00 am, but when we returned from breakfast around 10:30, the house had been cleaned already, and my mother in law's charger had been removed from the property. We had to call again and waited for the cleaner to bring it back. I travel a ton, and have never had to call about anything, much less call 3 times.

Great location and beautiful home

We stayed in Savannah for St. Patrick’s Day weekend. This beautiful home was conveniently located to all venues and close to Forsyth Park which was beautiful. I took my dog and had great green space to walk her several times a day. The house is nicely decorated, everything you need is there and beds are comfortable. We’ll definitely be back. Great host, who communicates well.

Beautiful Savannah

Our visit to Savannah was terrific due to our outstanding accommodations at the Whippet House. The house is quiet, clean, and beautiful, and the artwork is phenomenal. The home is located close to public transportation, so we did not do much driving once we arrived. The kitchen and bathrooms are well appointed, and we appreciated having laundry facilities and off-street parking. We highly recommend staying when visiting beautiful Savannah!

Perfect location

I looked at several properties before booking this one. The property was nice. Nice historic feel with modern amenities. It was perfect location to walk around the historic district. It was also great having the parking space in the back. We rented a mid size car and it fit perfectly. It would be tricky with a bigger vehicle. Would definitely stay at this rental again.

Great location; nice property

Stayed here three nights. All areas very clean. Tastefully decorated. A short 5 minute walk to Forsyth Park. About 25 minute walk to the Riverfront. Kitchen and bathrooms well stocked. Comfortable bed. Strong showers. SNAFU on check in with door code. This was rectified more or less quickly but after a stressful 6 hour drive, it took the J out of the Joy for our arrival in Savannah.

Savannah Sisters Trip - The Whippet House

We really enjoyed our stay at The Whippet House. The property was very comfortable, extremely clean, beautifully furnished, spacious with very nice amenities and in a great location for walking to local destinations with easy access to highways for several day trips outside of Savannah. It was actually easier to walk to local attractions in Savannah from the property instead of driving because parking can be difficult. There is a parking spot behind the property which was a big plus. We did day trips to Tybee Island, Hilton Head, Charleston and Beaufort along with exploring Savannah. We enjoyed our stay here and would absolutely recommend this property.

Great property, frustrating neighbors ( right next door)

Great property, excellent location. However neighbors are really frustrating. We reached late to the property and with in 2 mins we settled down in the home. However, neighbors complained that we came late and made noise. If they can’t stand with that 2 mins moving luggage process to home, they shouldn’t be next to vacation home. So unless you are sure, you checkin before 5 pm, don’t try this home, you will end up receiving complaints from stupid neighbors.

Comfort in the heart of Savannah

Easy access good parking and felt safe. Stairs is something we not used to but we adapted The ice maker didn’t work there was a couple of ice trays 1 was good but the other was not. If there was more trays available it would have been better or get the ice maker repaired. Dealing with Lucky Savannah was easy and friendly. If we go back I would definitely reach out to them again. Satisfied with our stay Joe

Great Spot

This rental was in the perfect location for us. We went down for the SCAD sidewalk festival. The rental was clean and very inviting. It could use a few updates to the paint and appliances but overall it has no effect on the house itself. The location was great, it was a mile walk to the River and close the park. The neighborhood was pretty quiet and all the neighbors were so friendly and inviting.

Great location, cute home.

What we loved most about this house is the location and the ability to sit outside in the back. The weather was perfect to be outside and we enjoyed the outside every morning for breakfast and late at night for some late night cocktails. We walked just about everywhere. Only uber’ed once due to rain.
