Perfect Historic Home for a Family on Vacation with Parking by Lucky Savannah

Built in 1853, Canterbury Main overlooks the Live Oaks of Chatham Square. With three bedrooms and one and a half baths, this home can comfortably accommodate up to six Lucky guests in true Southern fashion.

Soaring 12-foot ceilings, wood beams, exposed brick walls, and original ornamental hearths are just some of the details that give this historic home character, all while providing the modern conveniences that make your stay the epitome of luxury. A fully outfitted kitchen with adjacent dining area has everything you’ll need to enjoy a home cooked meal. Behind original pocket doors you’ll find a tastefully appointed living room with plenty of seating and a flat screen TV.

All three bedrooms are upstairs. There are two queen bedrooms, one with a TV, and a third bedroom with a full-size bed that where you’ll feel as if you’re sleeping in the majestic oak tree right outside your windows.

The sprawling courtyard has plush landscaping, plenty of seating, and even a grill for some outdoor cooking. When you’re ready to venture out, you’ll be within walking distance to the best shopping, dining and nightlife Savannah has to offer. Beautiful Forsyth Park, the city’s largest green space and a popular location for weddings and events, is just two minutes away. Grab a burger at the nearby Crystal Beer Parlor, or taste some real Southern cooking at Mrs. Wilkes Boarding House. Wherever you may roam, you’ll have the perfect home-away-from-home to return to at the end of the day.

Why Lucky Savannah Loves this Property:
- This home can be combined with the Canterbury Garden apartment to accommodate an additional four guests.
- One private off-street parking spot, and the convenient location, mean you can come and go as often as you like.
- A full size washer and dryer is conveniently located in the upstairs full bath.

What's nearby

  • Designed by John S. Norris for General Hugh Weedon Mercer, construction of the house began in 1860. Construction was interrupted by the American Civil War, and finally completed around 1868 by the new owner, John Wilder. Before Hansford's death, as retold in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, the house had already been the scene of two deaths. In 1913, a previous owner tripped over the second floor banister, fractured his hip, and suffered a concussion, dying three days later. In 1964, a boy chasing pigeons on the roof fell over the edge and impaled himself on the iron fence below.

Can’t beat the location!

A beautiful, historic home so close to Forsyth park! It was nice having a dedicated parking spot as well. It had plenty of cookware but you need to bring all of your own food items to cook with. Lucky Savannah was very accommodating with any issues or questions we had. We were a little rationed in terms of things like paper towels, Toilet paper, dishwasher pods, dish soap but we made do. The stairs are high and steep with a little bit of a loose railing so just be aware if traveling with small children. Overall we enjoyed staying here with the highest postings being location and the character of the home.

Perfect location for a Girls Getaway!

Wow! What a perfect location for a Girls Getaway! We absolutely loved the location of the home in the historic district. It was only a short walk to some great neighborhood coffee shops and maybe 20 minutes to the city market and river area. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk through the historic squares and went to the Farmer's Market at Forsyth Park. The three bedrooms are all upstairs and we were glad we only had one small suitcase each. Since there were three of us, we had a bedroom each and sharing the single upstairs bathroom worked fine. The master is very large, the middle bedroom is fine, but the third bedroom is small. I wouldn't let any of this stop you from renting. We also enjoyed the nice back courtyard and the downstairs living and kitchen areas. If we ever return to Savannah, we will stay here again!

Lovely historic townhouse

Elegant traditionally decorated townhouse with a lot of beautiful artifacts that I would imagine with toddlers or little kids could be worrisome for parents in regards to possible accidents. Very clean comfy bedrooms and perfectly located in a quiet square but walking access to restaurants etc I would recommend for older teens and adults and infants but not elderly or toddlers as the wooden stairs for access to the bedrooms or even to the front door are quite steep. The back courtyard is rustic and charming and parking very convenient.

Decent....

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at Canterbury Main House was fine overall. The location is great, right on Chatham Square. The fact that there are 2 off-street parking spaces dedicated to this rental is also a plus. Reps from property management company are very responsive to emails. However, I kept getting emails leading up to our trip telling me to get the Lucky Savannah app to help with our stay and each link provided did not work. One rep said there is no app for Android phones, only Apple phones, even though their emails say that it exists for Android. I was able to obtain all needed info through email. Home is quaint and overall nice, but there were several housekeeping items (basic things like shower cleanliness, floor cleanliness, dusting) that need to be addressed as well as TV (streaming only on 1 TV, other TV would not connect to anything), and bed pillows being too hard. I informed property management of these things and supplied pictures and they apologized but that is all. For the price, I expect a little better. Furniture in living area is fine but not comfy. I would say it's definitely not the worst place that you could stay, but it is decent.

We hit the jackpot on the Lucky Savannah! This is a great vintage house that’s in great condition and very close to all the historic district action. We would definitely recommend this house.

Great Historic Savannah Pad

We loved this 3 bedroom home in the heart of historic Savannah! It’s beautifully decorated with old hardwood floors and a character-filled (slightly slanted) wood staircase. We had a bit of a challenge having the wrong front door code in the instructions (& after we called too) & the wrong parking sign info, but the back door code worked great. I highly recommend this place.

Could easily be made into a much more hospitable location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location is fantastic and with a small amount of care this could be a terrific place to stay. Candace who worked with us and came to help us was wonderful. The property was musty and stale feeling when we arrived, codes for licks were not working, there were no ice trays or ice in the freezer, and the back yard felt neglected. Internet is spotty. One small pack of coffee was provided, no cream or sugar. Felt stingy. It’s a fine old house and with some care and thought could be a wonderful place to stay.
