Carriage House West at George Baldwin House

This is truly a step back in time. On the inside this is not a luxury rental, it is more like a cabin, so picky guests might want to scroll past this unit, but the home is incredible, the location is great and the history is unforgettable. The carriage house of famous historic mansion has two side by side separate apartments. This unit is the West unit. Mostly rustic but with a modern bathroom. This is for those who seek an adventure experience unlike any hotel or modern renovated home. Queen built in bed plus 2 built in Twin beds. Dining Table. Small equipped kitchen. Shared fairytale style rambling garden and courtyard. city license #SVR-00682

The carriage house apartment has a cabin vibe. Its living room and dining room area has two built in twin beds that double as sofa/lounge seating. We have a small tv with basic local channels. The kitchen is stocked with utensils. The bedroom has a built in Queen bed and a modern en suite bathroom. The bathroom has a real door but the other rooms are separated by curtains in the doorways. There is AC/Heat (2 mini split systems) and wireless internet access from the main house. The internet signal isn't strong enough for serious work from home but there is a Starbucks and another cafe within 1 block.

The gardens can be explored but no other apartments or the main house are accessible if you book this carriage house apartment you will not share the interior space with anyone. There is a small common foyer type entry before you get to your private apartment door. This is one block from the main downtown grocery store Kroger, and 2 blocks from Forsyth Park. This is next door to Brockington Hall event venue (also a famous Savannah mansion)

You can walk everywhere or take public transportation. There is a ConnectOnTheDot purple trolley stop one block away on Abercorn. We also have Uber and Taxis of all kinds. Parking is free and easy on the street (either Hall Street or Lincoln Street). Remember that Twin beds are shorter than King or Queens. These are standard Twin length so do not book for tall adults who will be disappointed with standard Twin beds in the common room. You can look up standard American bed sizes. The price is reflective of the rustic unit. Guests who choose this unit should understand there is a good reason this is less expensive than remodeled modernized rentals nearby. Those who are adventurous and not too picky have an opportunity to stay in magnificent historic compound for a low rate. We want everyone to be happy so please consider this when booking.

​​​​​​​The George Baldwin House was constructed in 1887. Designed by architect William Gibbons Preston. This was the first commission for Preston who later went on to design many of the most famous and impressive Savannah landmarks such as the Cotton Exchange.

What to expect when booking: We are an "integrated partner" with VRBO/Expedia/HomeAway. Your credit card will show the rent/tax/cleaning portion of your charges under our company name because Integrated Partners are required to be the Merchant Of Record per VRBO terms of service. Only your "service fee" charged by VRBO will show on your credit card statement as a charge from that company and rest shows separately as a charge from our local Savannah GA company. Please be sure anyone who oversees your credit card statement is aware of this to avoid any confusion. If you book on VRBO you will have already agreed to our basic rules and terms (no smoking, no pets, capacity limit, check in/out times, refund policy etc) on the VRBO checkout page. Our system will email asking you to digitally sign a rental agreement with our company after booking through VRBO. Nothing in our company rental agreement contradicts the posted terms on VRBO. If you have questions about how integrated software partners are trusted and approved by VRBO and all Expedia Group websites feel free to call them to inquire.
