In our family there were five (5) cousins born the same year. We celebrate vacations together with our spouses at various destinations. This year we met in Savannah, Georgia. We stayed at the Spanish Moss House on E Bay Street. The house is well equipped for dining in, a patio with bistro tables on the back of the house, a front porch for people watching, a short walk to River Street and accommodations for five couples to be very comfortable.This historic home is roomy and comfortable, and the decor is fitting for the era of the home.Robinson Family

Property is so conveniently located to River St. that you can walk everywhere. Once we parked the car in the garage we did not get back in it until we left Savannah. The house is beautiful and comfortable. Kitchen is well stocked. Would definitely recommend this place and would stay here again.

The location could not have been better. One street back from the river front with an easy walk to countless restaurants and shopping, next time I’m back in Savannah this will be my first listing to look for!

Our group of seven women who met MANY years ago but now live in states from Alaska to Florida normally have a difficult time finding a house like this. This home is exceptional because it has:
5 bedrooms, each with a beautiful king bed and a bathroom, a garage to save hassles of parking, a sun room and backyard terrace, a super front porch from which to observe historic Savannah, a responsive host team, and best of all, AN EXCELLENT LOCATION!!!

We loved this house for our girls weekend in Savannah. The location was perfect, walkable to almost everywhere we wanted to go. It was very spacious and comfortable. We enjoyed its historic vibes. The only negative was the critter living in the house. We could hear it running around and it also got into a package of toilet paper in the middle of the night.

This was a great place to stay with a large group. We had a lot of space to move about for the different activities that we had planned. On top of that, we didn't have to Uber to any of our locations around Savannah. Our longest walk was 12 minutes and the area is cute to walk around. It was a great bonus to get to stay in such an old and historic house!

Great value for the location and size of this house. You’re perfectly positioned directly across from the river walk and just about everything is in walking distance. Plus, finding a house to fit my large family, and everyone still have enough room for privacy, is hard to come by.

Cousins were driving to Florida and were planning a short stay in Savannah. We gathered from Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Atlanta for three days of sightseeing, eating and shopping.
The location was perfect for all the things. The decor provided an elegant yet relaxing atmosphere.

The location was great and I loved the king beds. Outdoor setup was also really nice along with plenty of space.
The upstairs bedroom was warm even with the AC. Getting in was very easy and the check out process was very quick with minimal lift (no stripping beds, loading washing machine, garbage bin effort, etc.).
It was a bit musty upon arrival but I think it is just the nature of the old house. Overall it is a great spot to stay if you are looking to explore Savannah with a group of people.

Location is amazing. History of house is amazing. Was able to see large ships from front porch. Only real negatives are the in room portable AC units and the community pool. Hard to install AC ducts in a historic house and appreciated them as it was hot when we were there. Community pool is a drive to get to and very small. Just pivoted and went to the beach instead once we saw it in person.

This house was very clean and was located in the middle of everything. The oven door and a refrigerator was broken. The rental company did let me know and they did everything in their power to rectify the problem. I will definitely be staying here again.

Great customer service from property manager when we locked ourselves out one day. Tons of character! Stairs down to the basement are narrow and there are no rooms on the ground floor so just be aware if anyone in your group struggles this might not be the best house. It is right across from a green park and a quick walk to cobblestone streets and stores. We stayed here and drove out to the beach at Tybee Island which was about 25 minutes away and a really cute beach town.

I am having a hard time thinking of a way to summarize how amazing this property is. You will be hard-pressed to find a better property than this one. This house just has a unique Savannah vibe with it being as old as it is. Staying at this house makes you feel even more in touch with Savannah’s great history! Large bedrooms with a king bed in each was so nice. Large kitchen for cooking gourmet meals and was very well stocked. But perhaps our favorite part was the location. You could walk anywhere in the historic area that you could possibly want to go. Or just sit on the front porch with your favorite beverage and enjoy the people watching and even see the barges go by on River Street! Great stay! Can’t wait to go back.

The house is a large, grand old house within walking distance to many things. The common areas and bedrooms are large and decorated in high quality period furniture. The house is clean and the beds are very comfortable. Towels were large and fluffy. The following are worth noting: The house is on a busy street, some areas need some TLC (exterior, kitchen, basement door, stairwells), the baths and showers are not oversized as indicated in the description, two bedrooms are in the basement and one is on the 3rd floor, a few airvents need to be cleaned, furniture and knicknacks could be reduced to make the house flow better and feel less cluttered.
