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.

Could not have been better!

I've stayed at several VRBO's in Savannah and this was the best. Just off of Bull St. and very close to my favorite square (Pulaski). Bedrooms were so spacious and it had everything I would have wanted. Looking forward to going back again.

Wedding Cake Mansion lower level

Great location and enjoyed the historic property. A couple of small items, several of the sockets were not working and overall the lighting was dim. Upstairs guests can impact your stay as there is limited sound proofing.

Great Location

Loved the location and character of the Garden Suite. The claw foot tub bathroom was gorgeous but not functional for showering, even with the handheld wand. If the curtain had a fastener it may have worked better. Otherwise it was perfect and would recommend to others - and stay again!

Long weekend with friends and family

The unit was clean, beds comfortable and kitchen fully equipped. It is an old house, circa 1860 per the book provided, and seems to be well maintained. Nicely decorated with furniture that appears to come from that era. Noise was definitely an issue. This is a known issue as they provided ear plugs. The noise from the 2nd floor was difficult at times, heavy footed with heels and the screaming and laughing and continuing the party until 3am. This was addressed by the rental company and the 3am party stopped but made our stay a little less comfortable. Construction didn’t help and one morning a dumpster was dropped right out front at 6am. On the morning we left, construction started at 6:30am. The foreman happened to arrive as we were leaving and we let him know that the start time was unacceptable. We also notified the rental company.The unit is centrally located but a 20 minute walk to the river where a lot of the bars are located. Internet connectivity was an issue and constantly buffered while relaxing watching TV. I know some don’t watch tv on vacation but my husband decompresses watching tv/movies after a long day exploring. If you are going to have to work remotely while staying here, bring a booster.

Great location!

Smaller than it looks on the listing. The main bathroom needs a remodel, there is mold in a few spots in the corners of the ceilings and paint is peeling. Because it’s garden level it tends to be dark inside. Parking tip, you can park at the Savannah welcome center for free during the day, and city street parking is free from 8pm to 8am on weekdays.

Savannah

It was a nice place close to everything. The fan in the living room couldn't be used as it had a loose blade & there was a chunk out of the shower handle. It needs better lighting & if your having a claw tub as one of the showers, it should have a shower curtain around it so you can actually stand up & shower with the shower head. Overall we enjoyed our stay a lot.
