McKenzie's Savannah House: Authentisches Stadthaus im historischen Viertel

We loved staying in this historic home! The antiques, china and family photos really made it feel like you were staying in a piece of history. We enjoyed having morning coffee and evening wine on the veranda. This piece of Savannah history is a must stay!

It was a blast. The balcony/porches, gorgeous antiques and perfect location all added up to a perfect get-away.

Lovely spaces, plenty of bathrooms, lovely porches, great location!

Good & bad: First off, I appreciate the low cleaning fee, however I didn't like the fact that renters are required to wash their own dishes & take out the trash. Not everyone has the same thoughts on cleanliness & don't trust that everyone washes/cleans well. Not a huge deal we just washed our own glasses, but had to use hand soap as there was no dish soap available to wash them. My husband could not find this town houses trash cans. Thankfully the neighbors were nice enough to let us put our 1 bag of trash in with theirs. Seems this is something that the maid service could take care of for little cost. There was dust all over the walls of the bathroom at the top of the stairs & black mold around several vents, in the bathrooms, & door frames. Squirrels have found a way in above the porch where it's rotted & run around. There's a tile loose in front of the fridge. The tub floor is separating so when you shower it feels like you're standing on a water filled bath mat. The top part of the post at the bottom of the exterior stairs is completely loose. Looks like someone tried to nail it into rotted wood then tried to glue it. The Bannister's are a little loose too. In the master BR at the end of the hall, there's a pretty big gap around the electrical outlet. If there are small kids staying, I'd be a little worried about them sticking their fingers in there. If you can't do a lot of stairs, this isn't the place for you. Lastly & most importantly, the mattresses need to be replaced. These are by far the WORST mattresses any of us had ever slept on. Uncomfortable only begins to describe them. We tossed & turned all night long. Seriously contemplated sleeping on the sofas but there was 4 of us & 3 sofas & not really long enough to stretch out on. Just FYI Zinus makes great mattresses. Have had ours 3 years now & still feels like new & was <$400 delivered.

Beautiful historical home located on Jones Street, which is considered one of the most be beautiful streets in historic Savannah. You could walk to River Street (or most anywhere) within 20 minutes. The bedrooms have ceiling fans (which i appreciate), comfortable beds, and TVs in each room. We really enjoyed the side porch in the morning with our coffee. The teens slept on the pull-out couch in the sunroom which they said was a little pokey but we added extra blankets (of which there were plenty) for padding. The home itself was clean but could use a little TLC. It has quite a few personal items that I assume were left behind by the previous owner and weren't cleaned out, including random can goods above the stove. Still, the home had lots of beautiful qualities and parking was easy. We enjoyed our stay!

Listed as a Luxury rental It was not We are use to short term rentals that are sparse Opposite here We opened roll top desk to work at and it was full of odd items like a junk drawer Lots of drawers throughout the house full of junk Extra pictures were leaning up against walls Old electronics ie. Microwaves, vcr shoved in cabinets Back door hammered shut with board Scotch taped wallpaper fix Patio furniture unstable unsafe to use Upstairs balcony decayed did not seem safe to walk on Master bedroom bed was comfortable the other beds were not This property really needs a massive clean up before renting it out again with a large dumpster available Great location ! Easy to walk to sights in Savannah Great binder that shared ideas of where to eat and what to see in Savannah Enjoyed seeing the history of the house in pictures on the walls. This 1873 home has good bones !

The inside and outside walls and gate of the outdoor garden is covered in lush poison ivy. The water feature is taped off. The secondary bed's mattress is very uncomfortable. The property manager was dismissive of my concerns. The futon was no longer in the home.

It is a beautiful house in a good location. It had everything we wanted. The pictures on the website don't do it justice. We had temperate weather, so we enjoyed sitting on the porches, morning & night.

Property was as described. Loved the history of the home and convenient to all historic district activities. The only concern was covered porch. It didn't feel sturdy. But we didn't need that space for our visit. Would rent again.

Very nice house in Southern Charm Neighborhood. House itself could use a good cleaning. Impressive collection of books and antiques, but very dusty. Also patios/balconies need cleaning. ***Safety issue*** Bannister is very loose and shaky-fall issue for young and old. Needs major bolstering. With updates and some decluttering-would world class Southern home.

Location was great!! Beautiful street. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean and well stocked.

The house itself and its location is amazing. Very beautiful and clean. The only drawback I can mention, is the 3rd sleeping area is not suitable for a couple or growing teen. Its a fold out couch/bed and it is getting old, as all things do. Not very comfortable and the lining inside the couch that helps support the mattress is starting to dry rot. I would just consider comfort if a third bed is needed, otherwise, we would definitely stay. The beds upstairs are perfect and extremely comfortable.

Nice location. Ok with old homes, this was unkempt. Dirty. Some disrepair that would be a code violation. Front door handle kept falling off. No other way to exit the property. Busted outlets/switchplates. Broken window pane front window.

Pro: Great location in historic part of town. It's a big space. Con: We were greeted by the smell of mold when opening the front door for the first time. And rightly so. The second flooring ceiling above the main stairway and two of the second floor doorways (primary bedroom and second bathroom) are covered in mold. Most of the downstair air vents are covered in mold, which was notable as the upstairs vent were clean. Paint is peeling off the ceilings in a number of rooms. Wall paper is peeling from the walls. There was what appeared to be blood on the primary bath wall. The pace is cluttered. This house looks like the great grandparents died last week. Only their clothes were taken to Goodwill. And it is a vacation rental this week. Open just about any drawer and there are old lightbulbs, a fax machine and answering machine that had to be from the 70's, old pharmaceutical bottles. Weird. There was a rolltop desk that had old random papers scattered on the top, two used coffee cups, a dish full of old batteries, old cards, just stuff. The kitchen floor is about 2-3 inches higher than the other flooring, so there is a set-down from kitchen into what was probably once a sun porch. The ceramic floor tiles are loose and held in place with blue painters masking tape. The upholstered furniture has liquid stains. The second upstairs bath has an electrical outlet hanging out of the wall. No cover plate. I wish VRBO had a way to upload pictures.

It was clean, in a fabulous location (walking distance to almost everything!), the beds were comfortable, and the living space was nice. Weird things: it sleeps six, but there weren't six of everything in the kitchen (like silverware, plates, and mugs). The house is literally filled with trash - old magazines, personal items, cassette tapes, and other odds and ends. It's all stuffed into drawers, so you'll find it as you look for the things you need for your stay. It wasn't bad, just really weird.

Clean, quiet, comfortable, lots of awake space on beautiful Jones Street! Highly recommend!

Great place, it was clean and the check out process was very easy! I would highly recommend

Very clean, location is great, we would stay again.

Myself and a childhood friend came to Savannah for the weekend to catch up. The comfort and convenient location of the house made for a wonderful place for us to do such.

The house is very spacious and in a great location to many sights. Just found the cross street (Price) to be very busy. The bed/mattress in what I would consider the second bedroom, needs to be replaced. It creaks and makes noise with every move. The house also needs a deep cleaning, as there is plenty of dust on items that are higher up. The upstairs hall bathroom needs more hooks or towel bars to place wet towels on to dry. Would have been nice to have a list of which apps work on the Roku TV. Tried watching the one DVD that was in the house, but there was no remote for the DVD player and we could not get it to play.

Beautiful! Worked great for 4 of us. Loved the history of the home.

The house was perfect for two couples -two bedrooms with comfy king sized beds. Two nice outdoor areas One of the bedrooms is very dark though, as are the kitchen and common areas downstairs. The house is a little shabby- peeling paint in places, funky door knobs, a little mildew But overall the house served us perfectly and we had a lovely stay in savannah

Great place to spend a vacation! Plenty of room, nice and quiet but still within walking distance of all the good stuff!

Perfect location. Quiet, safe, beautiful street. Short walk to historic downtown. Charming, historic, yet comfortable interior. Comfy beds and pillows. Lots of cool things to check out inside. Quick polite responses when emailed a question. Overall an excellent stay. Highly recommend!

This place was amazing. Historic, well kept, and perfectly located. Five minutes in an Uber to the waterfront for dinner, and the most magnificent one and a half hour walk back after drinks.With old Savannah charm this property sits perfectly placed close enough to everything but far enough away from the chaos.I’ve been to Savannah several times, but truly enjoyed this property and its location. I would highly recommend this property based on just pricing alone. The property manager was easy to work with and I think anyone staying here in the future will absolutely enjoy their stay.

Thank you so much for all your kindness we loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!

Home is located on a beautiful street in a great location. Our group enjoyed our stay.

Walked to everything

We did not have a car so location was ideal - walking distance to most attractions and restaurants. We enjoyed all of the tours we took wheel in Savannah.

The stay was nice. The only issue we had is that on of the people in our group had a hard time with the stairs. Otherwise the stay was nice. We did like it was convenient & within waking distance to Clarey’s Cafe and a trolley stop.

This was a beautiful historic house that was very welcoming and within walking distance of all major attractions. The neighborhood was quiet and loved sitting on the porch in the morning while drinking our coffee. Would highly recommend this home to others.

Loved the historic elements of this townhome. One drawback was that it had limited kitchen supplies. We had to go buy baking sheets to cook frozen french fries. Also, while we generally felt safe while we were there, our car was broken into as we were packing to check out. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, close to many activities. Loved the cooling pad on the mattress. It is hot in Savannah!
