The Gilded Fern

Welcome to The Gilded Fern - a beautifully restored residence within a charming 1920's Victorian duplex. Blending classic elegance with modern comfort, this thoughtfully appointed retreat is located in the heart of the Thomas Square Streetcar Historic District.


The space:

The light-filled living room with grand bay windows and ample seating is perfect for relaxing after a day in Savannah.

Enjoy cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and gathering at the dining table. Three queen bedrooms with plush linens promise restful sleep. A full bath with a vintage clawfoot tub adds character, while a separate half bath provides extra convenience.

Unwind on two private porches - ideal for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or dining al fresco. Extras like free street parking, washer/dryer, keyless entry, and a desk workspace make longer stays easy.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We loved the character of the house! One of the kids favorite places we've stayed! Everything from clean, comfy beds and linens to all other basic necessities were taken care of. Perfect home for 6 people. The front and back porch decks were very cool and we spent a lot of time out there. Great location to Down Town. Such a beautiful area! Great communication with hosts, They had helpful instructions and very detailed info. We would definitely stay again!
