When you drive to the house you will be pleased to see that our house is one of the nicest on the block.

Once you enter in the home you will realize how quiet it is. The neighborhood is tucked away near downtown and is a sleepy southern community.

One thing you will notice is this home is very well equipped for long stays.

Are you a foodie? Love to cook at home and have lots of options to sit down to eat and lots of equipment to cook? If you enjoy eating at home you are in luck this home has a wonderful dining room, adorable kitchen nook, and a lovely quiet patio. Each space is spacious and has ample equipment to cook and set lovely tables with lots of cutlery and plates bowls and glasses.

Find your way around Savannah easily from here. Lots of free street parking and driveway parking. Can’t get a parking ticket, there are no street meters and there is no designated day of the month where you cannot park on the street.

You are close to all the action but comfortably far away from it too. Parker’s Gas station is 1/4 mile away, Food Lion grocery store is also 1/4 mile away.

Are you a golfer? Bacon Park Golf Course is a few short miles away which is truly a lovely golf course.

At the corner of Skidaway and Victory which is only 3.5 miles away you have Star Bucks a large shopping mall with Staples, Target, Home Depot, car wash, Firestone’s, Dollar Store and etc lots of basic stores and lots of restaurants.

Do you love true southern food? Carey Hillard's is just minutes away. Seafoodlicious for low country boil at La Roche and Skidaway. There's Tubby's Tank house restaurant in Thunderbolt and The Wyld restaurant which is very close and has delicious food.

College football enthusiast? Savannah State with the Wright Stadium is walking distance away.

Do you enjoy tennis? Bacon Park Tennis courts are also a short "walk" away from the house.

If you are someone who likes to go and be in the thick of the action in downtown Savannah, but who gets claustrophobic after a few hours and wants to be able to leave to peace and quiet, this is where you'd like to be. Forest Hill Park is a community with lots of tree's and lovely to drive through.

This home is in a sleepy safe community call Forest Hill Park off of Skidaway and DeRenne area. You're a short 10-minute drive to Candler and Memorial Hospital. 2 minutes from Food Lion grocery store, 2 mins away from the gas station with a all-night convenience store in Food Lion's parking lot, and cute nick-nack stores.

You are a short drive from Victory and Skidaway a major junction where you will find the fast track to go to Tybee Island which takes a short 20-minute drive to get there, try the Crab Shack for a low country boil!!

You are close to lots of fun activities like: Bacon Park Golf course, nature walks and parks on Wilmington Island, public libraries, the public swimming pool is a short drive away and there are lots of tennis courts and water sports available in Thunderbolt an adorable sleepy beach community right adjacent to Forest Park where the house is.

BTW this home it has not been gutted and remodeled to make a made for vacation rental.

This house feels like a beach town house with loads of wood interior features giving it a warm relaxing vibe to it.

It is clean and kept tidy.

This home is fully furnished with pretty much everything a person would need to feel comfortable right away. There are lots of face clothes, towels, toiletries, toilet paper, several sets of bedding and duvet covers, bath robes, lots of hangers, and truly comfy comfortable beds. The dining room is loaded with plates and bowls, silverware, China, large serving plates, large serving bowls, loads of wine glasses, beer mugs in the freezer, cutlery for every occasion, and lots of fun doo dadas for decorative table settings. The pantry is packed with baking pans, pots and pans, air friers, an Italian tweedy bird expresso pot, lots of baking trays, toasters, fondu pots, and on and on. Also, the pantry has basic supplies, flour, sugar, coffee, tea, honey, and more to get your stay started. The kitchen as well it equipped lots of plates, bowls, glasses, and coffee cups. You won't need to buy anything to make the house more suited to your needs, it's all there.

One really nice aspect is you can come home and flop down on the sofa and not feel like you have pop up and put the pillows right or something bad is going to happen to you. This home has a really nice, relaxed vibe to it, it's designed to make you feel chill.

Enjoy a beverage of your choice, cook a nice meal in the cozy kitchen that is classic 1950ties. Sit at a formal dining room table and eat in style, or out on the patio super casual and BBQ on the Mongolian grill.

You can sense all the good home cooked meals that were cooked and look out the kitchen windows onto the huge backyard and want to go out there and breath.

This home is almost entirely original from the 1950ties minus a reno done in the early 1980ties. The living room all-wood panel and feels like being in a wood ship. It is perfect for Sunday football with a cold beer and your sweetheart. It's warm and comforting and secure feeling, something about being surrounded entirely in wood is lovely.

It’s an oasis within an oasis of fun in romantic Savannah. Take an Uber and run around downtown and have fun, eat, drink and go dancing and come home and transform back from party animal to urban Joe. No one needs to know, “what’s goes on in downtown, stays in downtown”.

You’ll love waking up in the morning in a quiet, safe, comfy, cozy home!

Best VRBO stay ever

We stayed 5 weeks with our 5 small dogs and they loved the huge yard. We enjoyed sitting out back as well The owner stayed in contact with us and we had 0 problems .Anna and Kyler the managers who live near by were unbelievable, they handled minor issues before we even knew they were issues. They went so far above what is expected they even dog sat for us a few times.You should rent this house just to meet them.

Nice home in a quiet neighborhood

We enjoyed our stay at the Ranchland home. The large shaded yard with privacy fencing was our favorite aspect of this property. Perfect for dogs and enjoying the breeze. It is an older house but we settled in quickly. Memories to last a lifetime. Thank you

A home away from home...

My husband and I spent a month at Laureen's home. It was located in an older residential neighborhood of homes built in the fifties in Savannah. The neighborhood was quiet and was a great get away from the hustle bustle of downtown. The house next door was undergoing a house flip renovation and it was interesting to see the progress over the month. Although they were busy remodeling, they were very conscientious and not noisy. Laureen's home has a small kitchen that includes everything you need to make a meal. There are 3 bedrooms that were nicely decorated. A huge benefit to this home was the comfort of the King Size Bed. Being away for a month, a comfortable bed is important. There was a lovely formal dining room set up for an elegant dinner party. It is also a great area to set up PCs if you are working from home. There is a big backyard with a patio. If you have an animal, there is plenty of room for walking in the yard. My husband spent time watching his sports on the patio. There is a big screen tv in the family room that has cable tv and the bedrooms have individual ROKU tvs. There was a laundry room off the patio with a washer and dryer. The location was great as it was only 4 miles to downtown and about 12 miles to Tybee Island. We visited "Forsyth Park", "Tybee Island", "Hilton Head Island", took the "Savannah Queen" Brunch tour and visited the "Oglethorpe Mall" several times. Some of the restaurants we went to were "Carey Hilliards" in Savannah, "Hueys" downtown Savannah, "Crab Shack" in Tybee Island, "Tubbys Tankhouse" in Thunderbolt Marina, "Tequila Town" in Sandfly, "Cracker Barrel" in Savannah "Waffle House" in Savannah. Finely, I appreciate our host Laureen who was extremely responsive. We had some questions about the trash pickup and the lock on the door. Laureen responded immediately and resolved issues. Also, there was an issue with the cable before we arrived, and Laureen arranged for repair the day we arrived. She also gave us recommendations of some restaurants to visit while in Savannah. Also, I appreciate Kate who greeted us on arrival and showed us around the home. In summary, this is an older home that is lived in and not fancy but very comfortable. The price was affordable. If i return to Savannah, I would certainly stay here again. Valerie and Mark Maine

Wonderful home away from home

We stayed here for a month and already missing it. It was close enough to the historic district, but far enough to be out of the crowds. The house was a quaint older home with charm and a few quirks. Toilet was a bit touchy to flush, but other than that it was exactly what we needed. Beds were super comfy. and the neighborhood was quiet. Big bonus, our Dog really enjoyed the big backyard. The hosts were great, defiantly recommend and would stay here again. Thank you!!

About the host

Hosted by LAUREEN OLSON

Host profile image
I have been a/in property manager (ment) for a long time. I have an ARM and a REM certificate. I can honestly say I enjoy people and providing housing. I try my best to make the stay as comfortable and supported as possible. I know its stressful coming to a new city for work, or venturing out to a new place to explore, and getting settled in new home and surroundings. Having a solid situation and home to finish the day to is critical. I work to make sure it is for you and am always available to ensure it is. This home is very well stocked. Lots of bedding, lots of comforters, throw blankets, lots of pillows, lots of towels and more. I have stocked the house with almost every creature comfort. Down to the wagon at the front door to go grocery shopping or going to the beach. It's all there.

Why they chose this property

This property is very well located. Close to but not in the thick of it. Downtown Savannah poses parking challenges, traffic challenges, noise challenges and a lot of people all over all the time. This location is a couple of miles away, so you can escape for the hectic noisy of downtown Savannah to a very quiet residential community minutes away.

The back yard is enormous, over 10,000 sq ft, and the plan is to slowly build a wonderful oasis back there is lot of fun things.
This property is in a nice quiet area, street parking is plenty and free. If you have any further questions please feel free to ask.

What makes this property unique

What makes this home unique is its originality. This home has not been gutted and stripped of its past, replaced with white walls, vinyl flooring and pressed wood cabinets.

The wood parquet flooring is original as well as the living room solid pine flooring, if you love real wood floors this is your place. You'll find lots of accessories to make life comfortable. One example is we have put a wagon at the front door for trips to the grocery store, or a visit to the beach. There are many more like this you'll discover,

The huge backyard is also unique, it is very large and gives you a space where you can relax. If you have pets, then they will have an enormous space to play and burn off those zoomies. Even though it is a 1950ties home that is almost original this home has a lot of modern amenities. It has a Ranni natural gas hot water on demand. It has G5 internet speed. It has smart light bulbs all throughout the house. There are Smart TV's in every bedroom and you have a 55" smart TV in the living room. You have Cync smart light bulbs that you connect to and can control the brightness as well as turn them all on before you arrive home.

There is a blue tooth speaker in the air vent in the bathroom to connect to so you have listen to your favorite music while you shower. So it is old fashion modern.

The surrounding neighborhood is very quiet and safe. The Candler and Memorial hospitals are a very short ride away. The Harry Truman is a hop and a skip from the house which will allow you to get just about anywhere in Savannah in 15 minutes.

It's close to grocery stores, golf courses, restaurants and shopping malls. Downtown in 15 minutes away.

Tybee Beach is 20 minutes from the house. This is a great home for remote workers who are traveling and living in fun places. Savannah is a wonderful place to explore and experience its history and romantic atmosphere.

If you have any further questions, please feel contact me.
