About this property
The Washington Square Carriage House
Summary:
The Washington Square Carriage House is a 2 BR, apartment above a private garage & includes one garage parking space. Located on quiet Washington Square in an upscale neighborhood away from the noise while only 2 blocks to the action on River Street!
The Space:
The Washington Square Carriage House is a free standing cottage with a private entrance on the lane/alley. It is located behind The Washington Square Main House and guests share the center/private courtyard & garage below.
During the horse-and-buggy days, Savannah’s carriage houses were the sleeping quarters of the family's carriage drivers. The drivers were responsible for the care of the horses & the carriages housed in what we now use as auto-garages.
This painstakingly restored & converted carriage house offers one highly coveted garage parking space and is located in Savannah’s Landmark Historic District on picturesque Washington Square. This home is only 2 blocks from Historic River Street & the Savannah River.
The apartment is located on the 2nd floor over the garage so there is a flight of stairs leading up to the home. The carriage house has an open living room and kitchen with island seating for 4.
The fully outfitted kitchen is equipped with all the essentials to whip up a meal.
Each of the 2 bedrooms have en suite bathrooms & queen size beds. The walled courtyard offers a quite oasis to sip a cocktail and chat with guests from the main house.

Perfect location with in walking distance to everything. Had a lovely dinner at Cha Bella the first night that was just steps from our door. Comfy beds, and the host was very helpful.
Everything we’d hoped for was accommodated in this perfect place: garage to stow our bicycles, location central to Old Town, the River, memorials, historic homes and cathedrals, restaurants, and easy access by car to Tybee, the Cemetary, and the botanical gardens. Our checklist was satisfied in 4 memorable days!
The apartment has everything you might need. The area is quiet and within walking distance to many restaurants and to the River Walk. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly!!
Loved our stay—the location can’t be beat, the beds are comfortable, and the space was very clean. The covered parking spot is a wonderful bonus! We would absolutely stay here again!
This apartment was beyond our expectations! The historical feeling while feeling like I was at home, was amazing. The location was great- close to the river walk. I will stay here again and again! Looking forward to planning my next trip here!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Carriage House. The location was great and we even got to watch a homecoming parade from the windows. The garage space was perfect and we really didn't have to move our car once we parked. It was clean and comfortable.
The carriage house was so charming! Parking was so convenient and secure. It has everything you need for a comfortable and pleasant stay. Short walk to everything. Would definitely stay again.
What a great place to stay. The location is great, within walking distance to just about everything. Our place was very clean and welcoming. One of the best advantages to our stay was the attached garage. You won't go wrong if you stay here.
We loved our stay at the Carriage House. The location is excellent and within walking distance of everywhere. The property was just as described and very cozy and comfortable. The only issue we had was we were only given one towel per person.
I highly recommend this property and would rent it again.
This property is great for two couples as each couple has their own bath attached to their bedroom. The location is perfect! Has garage parking for one car which is a plus in Savannah. Parked and was able to walk to river where the action is. This property is in historic district. It was once the carriage house. Enjoyed our stay!
Great stay with you guys. Location was close and convenient for us. Would stay again. One slight thing, which might have been an oversight, there where only 4 towels and wash clothes for 4 people for 4 nights for the entire stay. So we had to wash towel’s everyday.
Very comfortable beds. After we figured out the lane/alley vs street and you enter carriage house from lane we were good to go. Walked to all our tours downtown, exploring, and dinner and it was easy to navigate. Great shower with great water pressure and hot temperatures. Quiet setting. Nice to have garage for vehicle.
We had a great time staying here. It was in a very convenient location in the north historic district and super close to the river walk! Most of the things that we wanted to do were within walking distance. I do think some of the Lyft/uber drivers had a hard time figuring out the exact location, but once we started giving the address of a house at the corner, it became easier to direct them to. Overall, would stay here again!
We loved this property. My mom and had our own rooms and bathroom. Nice living area and back courtyard. Also extremely helpful to have a washer/dryer as this was the tail end of our trip and we were able to do laundry before heading home. Definitely recommend this place! They let us checkin a little early as well. We were coming from Charleston and arrived about 45 min early.
Clean, great communication with host and great for two friends checking out Savannah.
We walked everywhere and its location worked wonderfully. The only issue was the garage door is loud and the group staying in the main house left early and woke us. They had breakfast in the courtyard that woke us as well. We met them and they were lovely people. If you’re planning to sleep in you may want to rethink this place. Also, it took us a bit to find it. A friendly neighbor had to help us and that added to the pleasure of the visit. We had a fun time. This place worked pretty well for us.
