About this property
Historic Cottage with Private Courtyard and Parking by Lucky Savannah
Built circa 1876, this charming historic home home has been recently refurbished to showcase the home’s exposed ceiling beams and wide plank heart pine floors. Warm and inviting, you’ll feel right at home during your stay in Savannah!
The living room has a wall mounted television and a new leather sofa bed. Twin decorative fireplaces flank the dining area, which seats 4 to 6 people comfortably. The remodeled kitchen has granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances. A door from the kitchen leads to a private paved courtyard perfect to enjoy coffee, refreshments, or grill your evening meal.
On the main floor, the bright and sunny primary bedroom has a queen bed, a TV, dresser and a spacious closet. Adjacent is a full bathroom with a pedestal sink and a tub/shower combination. The upstairs loft bedroom has a king-sized bed, TV, a full bath, and full sized washer and dryer.
In the residential area of the Historic District, you’ll have a quiet and relaxing retreat to return to each night while still being within walking distance to several Savannah landmarks, including Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room and the infamous Mercer-Williams House of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
As a historic cottage, this home has original features uncommon to many of today’s homes. Specifically, the stairs to upstairs bedroom are steeper than newly built homes and should be taken into consideration for those with mobility issues.

So adorable! We loved the property and location. Parking spaces were so helpful. Great central location. We were able to walk everywhere. The history of the house was so neat and the neighborhood was quiet and safe. Great place to stay!
Our stay at Molly was everything we needed! This was our first visit to Savannah and Molly kept us comfortable while we explored the amazing area!
Thanks!
Home was very nice and had private parking which was an added plus. Had everything we needed for our long weekend and the beds were very comfortable. The location was great and the area was very quiet. Loved our stay!!
Great location, quiet neighborhood. The cottage is comfortable and cozy. The stairs to the king bed are a little steep and require caution going up and down, especially when toting luggage. The cottage is well appointed and had everything needed for a relaxing stay.
The home was exactly as described. It came fully stocked with everything needed for a comfortable visit. We would definitely stay again.

Very charming house in a great location to visit savannah. We had a great time and would recommend this location to visit. Everything we needed was available at the house for our stay.
We stayed at Mollys Cottage 4 nights including Christmas and had a pleasant stay. The location and property management responsiveness was exceptional. I would caution families with small children or elderly members from choosing Mollys cottage because of the steep stairs, however if your travel group is free of mobility concerns then Mollys is a perfect pick!
Great location. House was super clean and well organized. I would highly recommend this place. The back court yard was awesome. Also the house on the street with free off street parking.
I cannot say enough about this wonderful property in Savannah. It was the perfect location - we walked to almost everything! The two bedrooms and two baths were great for two couples! And the backyard oasis was a lovely respite after a fun-filled day.

Overall a really great stay. My one comment is that the heating / air unit was so loud when it kicks on that it woke me up out of a dead sleep at 2am.
We had a great visit! The patio out back is nice and shady. It was in a great neighborhood, quiet and easy walking distance to Forsyth Park. Lots of fun games to entertain while just chilling. We love staying in these historic homes, thanks for the history book provided on property.

Wonderful experience during our Savannah visit due to the homey, relaxing venue of Molly's Cottage!Quiet, walkable neighborhood and close to restaurants. Very enjoyable home.
Our stay was great. The property is in a great location—a very quiet area. It was our first time traveling with our pet, and it's a great area to walk your pet. The property was very comfortable and clean, and everything worked. It has a bedroom downstairs, which worked great for us. We felt very comfortable out at night. It was easy to walk to our lunch and dinner reservations. It has excellent parking and a cute courtyard. We had a great visit and a relaxing time with our son!
The perfect place to stay in Savannah. Within walk-ing distance to the beautiful parks and Broughton Street. Well stocked kitchen, very clean and cozy. The backyard is even prettier than the pictures - it’s a quiet little oasis, and I loved sitting there after a long day with a glass of wine and a book. Great communication with the property managers. Everything was very easy and we enjoyed our stay! Thank you!
We loved our stay. The property was as described. The second floor bedroom is a loft. The courtyard was very nice. The location was perfect for us. I liked that there was a driveway specifically for this property. The dryer didn't work which was a little bit of a bummer just because we were on a long vacation and needed to do some laundry but definitely not a deal breaker. I loved there was a binder with the history of the home and the town. I would definitely stay at this property again if we came back to visit Savannah.

This home is on a lovely, quiet street and the home is charming. It was great to have coffee to brew, but there were no coffee filters to brew it with. There was one bathmat for 2 bathrooms and only one hand towel as well. We had a few chilly evenings, but there were no throw blankets. The kitchen had absolutely nothing to cook with. The furniture in the living room was VERY uncomfortable and the cushions were broken down.

My mother and I had a great stay at Molly's Cottage on 10/30 - 11/3/2024. The Cottage was spacious, very clean, and incredibly comfortable. Best of all, it was in a great location just a few blocks from the Forsyth Park fountain. We could walk almost everywhere we wanted to. As others have said, the stairs leading up to the loft are a little steep, but they're fine as long as you're careful. We also appreciated the parking space next to the cottage, as well as the nice courtyard. Another bonus -- the restaurant Noble Fare, which is within walking distance, was the best meal of our entire trip to Charleston and Savannah. We highly recommend staying at Molly's Cottage! Enjoy Savannnah!

We always enjoy our stay in Savannah. This particular house was comfortable and quiet. My husband and I were so relaxed and our JRT loved the park that was only two blocks away. The property had its own parking space which is a plus if you know that parking on the street is not that convenient. House was well appointed with exception of some of the kitchen utensils , some were dull ; I usually bring my own but forgot. Otherwise it was a wonderful experience.
