Immerse yourself in the rich history of the South’s most welcoming city by spending your stay in Savannah Georgia vacation rentals instead of a hotel room. You will enjoy the greater flexibility of having your own kitchen and laundry facilities, plus you can spend more quality together time within your shared living space. Southern Belle’s catalog of Savannah GA vacation rentals includes a wonderful variety of accommodations, so finding the right home base for your visit is easy. As one of our most convenient properties, Charlton House is centrally located in the city’s Historic District within walking distance of famous restaurants, gracious parks and exciting activities.
Chic, Casual and Convenient to Everything
Charlton is part of a former carriage house on a larger estate. With living space on the main level and two bedrooms plus bathroom upstairs, it provides you with both common areas for socializing and private rooms for your favorite solitary pursuits. This Savannah vacation rental features a spacious brick courtyard with vine-covered privacy walls. An iron table offers seating for six where you can share family-style meals or meet up for cocktails at the end of long, languid Savannah days. Potted plants and the soothing sound of flowing water from the tiered fountain add to the luxurious outdoor living experience of this Savannah vacation rental. Nearby, a charming laundry chamber encloses a clothes washer and dryer for your use throughout your stay.
When you step across the threshold of Charlton House, the living room captures your attention with warm, welcoming earth tones, a soft sofa and armchairs splashed with colorful throw pillows. A fan light, suspended from the beamed ceiling, freshens the air, and a plush area carpet tops the tiled floor. Promising plenty of pleasant evenings catching up on things, watching the large flat-screen TV and relaxing, this room is destined to be your designated meeting place. A powder room with a charming copper lavatory is located right off the living room.
Touches of brick décor unify the open plan of the main floor as you proceed through the dining room where you can enjoy your meals next to the big, sunlit windows. Just beyond is the U-shaped kitchen, which supplies all the conveniences that make cooking a pleasure. A two-drawer dishwasher, beverage cooler, range-oven, full-sized refrigerator and microwave greet you with the gleam of stainless steel. Ample wood drawers and cupboards contain your dishes, glassware, utensils and all the cookware you could possibly wish for. All you need to add are your favorite ingredients sourced from Savannah’s open-air markets.
The second-floor bedrooms feature comfortable queen-sized beds and ceiling fans that provide decorative élan as well as cooling breezes. Brick walls ensconce you with a sense of the city’s rich history, which is echoed in the gleaming hardwood floors and generous, wood-framed windows. A flat-screen TV, chests of drawers and bedside lamps feather your nest with all you need to achieve a good night’s rest. A tufted headboard, wonderful wall art and white accent furnishings adorn the second bedroom. The shared bathroom offers a tub/shower for bathing and a granite-topped vanity. Fluffy towels are complimentary.
A Busy Itinerary
When you stay in Savannah Georgia vacation rentals, restaurants, shopping and historic activities are always nearby, but you will especially appreciate all that you can do and see within a short walk from Charlton House. Some of the Historic District’s most celebrated eateries are practically next door, including Mrs. Wilke’s Dining Room, where you can feast on hearty Southern cuisine. Simply stroll two blocks south on Whitaker Street, and take a right turn on Jones. Stop for brunch in the Gryphon Tea Room at the Savannah College of Art and Design. It lies only a block and a half from Charlton House on Bull Street.
Your surrounding neighborhood is bordered by four historic squares: Chatham, Pulaski, Madison and Monterey. Inside that space, you can walk to the Green-Meldrim House museum to the west of Madison Square, headquarters of General Sherman during the Civil War and said to be haunted. Take in the Hurn Museum of Contemporary Art on East Taylor Street and the Mercer-Williams House on Monterey Square, home of author Jim Williams of “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil” acclaim. If you love period architecture, be sure to see the Greek revival-style homes bordering Chatham Square.
Beyond your immediate Savannah vacation rental neighborhood, the district’s convenient transportation options open up the entire city for your enjoyment. Take the free Historic District shuttle bus and visit all 22 town squares. Shop for souvenirs at City Market, which occupies renovated brick warehouses from Savannah’s cotton industry era. Grab a pedicab to River Walk, just a few blocks north, where you can enjoy open-air dining. Take a historic trolley tour of the riverfront. Also, check out any annual festivals or events ongoing during your stay, which range from the Greening of the Fountain in Forsyth Park in March to the Savannah Jazz Festival in September.
