PLEASE NOTE: we are located on a main street in a busy urban city. Because of our prime location, you WILL hear street noise from pedestrians and vehicles. Also, being across from the tennis courts, you will also hear noise from the matches taking place as well as practice sessions. But, they are fun to watch!!
Savannah’s sub-tropical climate means hot, humid summers and occasional bugs. While The Abilene is regularly treated by pest control, we can’t eliminate all outdoor elements.
Please consider these factors, as we do not offer refunds based on these conditions.
Guests will have full access to the entire home and will be provided keyless entry codes on the day their reservation starts.
There are stairs to access the home from both the front and back of the home. Only one bedroom is located on the 1st floor with a full bath down the hall. Two other bedrooms are located on the 2nd floor and the stairs are steep due to the soaring 11 foot ceilings. Please keep this in mind while booking.
Guests can contact me through the app for any questions.
Our location is superb! It is located just across from the iconic Forsyth Park which attracts millions of visitors a year and on one of the primary streets in Savannah HOWEVER, with the location also comes foot traffic and street noise. Guest should expect noise from other travelers, folks enjoying the park, as well as vehicles from Drayton St. Although there is not as much traffic at night, you WILL hear cars and trucks passing by.
Additionally, Savannah is a sub-tropical climate. This means it gets extremely hot & humid in the summer and there are bugs. The Abilene is consistently treated by a pest control service however, we cannot control the overall environment that is Savannah.
Please consider these circumstances if you feel this may be an issue for your overall comfort & enjoyment because we do not offer refunds based on these items.
