The Neighborhood:
The cottage is in the Pointe North neighborhood on Wilmington Island, a quiet residential area. Tybee Island's beaches and downtown Savannah are each about 15 minutes away by car.
A Kroger grocery store is about five minutes from the house, and there are convenience stores, gas stations, restaurants and a Walmart nearby. The neighborhood is close to the highway, but you will barely hear road noise.
Neighbors live on either side of the home, so please keep noise low and keep to the speed limits and quiet hours.
Getting Around:
You will need a car or a rideshare. The roads here have no sidewalks, so shops and restaurants are not within walking distance, but the quiet side streets are fine for a morning stroll. Uber and Lyft are easy options to Tybee Island and downtown.
Parking is in the driveway, with room for three cars. Please do not park on the street or the grass.
In an emergency, there is a 24 hour urgent care in Whitemarsh, a 6 minute drive. The Chatham County Police Precinct is about 2.5 miles away and the closest fire station is 1.5 miles away.
Other Things to Note:
Stairs: The two upstairs bedrooms are up 15 steps. The downstairs king bedroom and its ensuite bathroom need no stairs.
