Nice quiet getaway

We stayed here while in town for a few days to visit family. The location, home, and amenities were very nice. The home had everything that we needed and the hosts were very communicative to make sure we were comfortable. We would definitely stay again!

Nice and Quiet country style

Great place and very quiet out in country. Place was clean and very cozy. Not to far from Savannah and just a little drive to Publix, Kroger or Food Lion. Definitely a great place to get away from city life to country life.

Time With Family

My sister, Aunt and I loved our stay at this beautiful cottage. Communication with the host was very easy. We had no issues during our stay and enjoyed relaxing and spending time together. We all live in different cities in Florida so don’t see each other as much as we would like. The beds were very comfortable which is a blessing at our ages🙂. We would definitely choose this cottage to stay at again!

Midway Getaway

The river house is very much as advertised and a very quiet, out of the way place. It was probably more remote and removed than we had anticipated; about 30 min from any real grocery stores, restaurants, etc. But again, a very peaceful and nicely setup place to relax. The back enclosed porch was wonderful and a great place to eat and watch the sun set. The owner was great and communication was excellent.

Nice getaway!

Fred and Jane were wonderful hosts! So communicative and kind. The property was clean and inviting. My husband and I felt right at home and felt comfortable relaxing and just hanging out at the property. We also discovered the Nespresso machine, which we must be living under a rock because we have never heard of it before. Needless to say, we bought one when we got back. Overall, we had a great experience!

Honeymoon Bliss

Our stay at "The River Cottage" was purely magical ✨️ It was the perfect getaway for our honeymoon. The Cottage was wrapped in cozy southern charm. It was pristine and supplied with everything we needed to make it our lil home away from home. The sunsets were awe inspiring with the majestic oaks and their dripping Spanish moss. It was located close enough to visit Everything on our itinerary but yet off the beaten path to get away from it all. Fred and Jane were so very helpful with any questions or concerns and gave us insight on local eateries, etc. They were amazing hosts. We made memories in a short few days to last a lifetime at The River Cottage.

This was our second time staying here. The hosts communicate everything very well and are accommodating. The cottage was very clean, and is so cute and quaint with very nice modern touches and all the things you need for a comfortable stay. We loved the backyard and being able to walk to the water and we really enjoyed the fire pit as well. We will definitely stay again and can't recommend it enough to anyone looking for a nice place to get away!

Lovely romantic cottage with beautiful Spanish moss oakes shading the yard. Private dock to enjoy relaxing on at the end of your day. Sunroom is great way to start your morning with coffee. Bed is king comfort!! Shower is also heaven… good pressure with stand under AND separate handheld. Not to mention the location is awesome for being located to any direction you want to visit! Tybee Island & Jeykll island are about 1 hr on either side of cottage. Savannah is about 45. We were able to visit all of them with time to spare. Treat yourself and that special someone to this unique magical place. Thank you also to Fred & Jane for the ease of check-in and helpful information about the area!

Amazing place to stay

My husband stayed for our 21st anniversary, and absolutely loved the place. Visited Savannah, which we loved the beautiful city. The cottage was well equipped with essentials, very clean and smelled amazing. The owners were very personal, checking on us making sure everything was good and if we needed anything to let them know. Highly recommend ❤️

Perfect in every way!

This home and location were perfect for our stay. We wanted somewhere within a reasonable drive to Hilton Head and Savannah, but a quiet place to relax at night. This place and the hosts did not disappoint. We enjoyed catching crabs off the dock and nights on the covered patio. We would stay here again. 10/10!

A Hidden Gem Beneath the Oaks

Our stay at The River Cottage was absolutely wonderful — so much so that this was actually our second visit! From the moment you arrive, the peaceful waterfront setting beneath the beautiful ancient oaks creates the most relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. The cottage itself is beautifully renovated, blending charming Southern cottage style with modern touches that make it feel both cozy and upscale.We especially loved spending time outdoors — enjoying sunsets on the dock, watching the waterfowl glide by, and simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The outdoor spaces are perfect for relaxing, dining, or just enjoying the view. Every detail feels thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation.What truly makes this place exceptional, though, are the owners, Fred and Jane. They are incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive, always making sure we have everything we need while still giving us complete privacy to enjoy our stay. It’s rare to find hosts who are so genuinely kind and hospitable.The River Cottage feels like a hidden gem, and we are already looking forward to returning again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful getaway!

Cute little cottage

Such a cute cottage and the home decor was beautiful! The owners stayed in contact and made sure we were ok! They were very welcoming! We were busy going places so we didn’t spend too much time there but would love to plan a non busy trip soon and stay and enjoy the cottage a little more!

Peaceful

We wanted to see Savannah but needed a peaceful vacation too. This was perfect for both. The beds were super comfy and the dock, with the wildlife and the breeze, was a great place to relax in the morning and the evening even in the heat of June. Older home but completely updated. A place you can enjoy just hanging around even without the tourist attractions but Savannah and Tybee Beach were only about a 40 minute drive- all interstate. The owners were very nice and easy to communicate with. Definitely recommend. I would happily stay here again.

Peaceful Retreat

My wife and I stayed here for a couples getaway and really enjoyed ourselves. The owners have done an excellent job creating a peaceful and relaxing space. The home is was very clean and thought was put into the entire guest experience. From water bottles in the fridge, bath soaps and lotions, and coffee selections - you can show up and simply unwind. We spent most of our time out during the days - visiting Savannah, Tybee Island, and Hilton Head Island. It was a great place to come home to each evening. Communication was excellent and we had an great experience!
