This policy encompasses traditional smoking, vaping, and the use of electronic cigarettes. Please refer to the 'Additional Rules' section for all house rules. This will help avoid any possible misunderstandings. PLEASE NOTE: we are located on a main street in a busy urban city. Because of our prime location, you WILL hear street noise from pedestrians and vehicles. Also, being across from the tennis courts, you will also hear noise from the matches taking place as well as practice sessions. But, they are fun to watch!! Savannah’s sub-tropical climate means hot, humid summers and occasional bugs. While The Abilene is regularly treated by pest control, we can’t eliminate all outdoor elements. Please consider these factors, as we do not offer refunds based on these conditions.

Other Details to Note

Our location is superb! It is located just across from the iconic Forsyth Park which attracts millions of visitors a year and on one of the primary streets in Savannah HOWEVER, with the location also comes foot traffic and street noise. Guest should expect noise from other travelers, folks enjoying the park, as well as vehicles from Drayton St. Although there is not as much traffic at night, you WILL hear cars and trucks passing by. Additionally, Savannah is a sub-tropical climate. This means it gets extremely hot & humid in the summer and there are bugs. The Abilene is consistently treated by a pest control service however, we cannot control the overall environment that is Savannah. Please consider these circumstances if you feel this may be an issue for your overall comfort & enjoyment because we do not offer refunds based on these items.

Few times do you find a host who is just as great as their listing. This property is absolutely stunning. The house is charming, beautiful rooms, and was perfectly situated for our family of 6. When I say beautiful, it’s an absolute understatement. The place was impeccably clean and smelled wonderful. It is centrally located to everything, making it walkable to shops, restaurants, landmarks. The house is easy to find and the parking was a breeze. The only thing more incredible than this listing is the host, Stacia. Apart from being communicative and very responsive, Stacia added special touches that made my niece’s birthday even more special. We felt like we were staying at a relative’s house for the week. The only way this could have been better is if we would have booked for a longer time, we didn’t want to leave. If you’re in Savannah, this the THE place to stay. Thank you again, Abilene on Forsyth, till we see you again!

We had the most wonderful time at this beautiful home! We had previously stayed there and enjoyed it as well but the new renovations made it exceed expectations! Location is perfect. We had our kids with us and were able to walk just right across the road to the park, restaurants and coffee shops near by. Absolutely wonderful stay! The house was pristine and lovely. We hope to stay there again in the future. One of our favorite Air BnBs
