Description

Built toward the end of the 19th century, this one-bedroom, one and one half-bath property is as rich in history as it is charm. Once the home of Mrs. Wilkes, proprietress of the famous Boarding House and still-operational Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room, this parlor-level condo offers a unique stay for up to four Lucky guests. Wake up every morning to beautiful Jones Street, where cobblestones and ancient oak trees dripping in spanish moss compelled Southern Living Magazine to name it the “Prettiest Street in America.”

The original hardwood floors and 12’ ceilings and tasteful interior decor make this home-away-from-home warm and inviting. The large living area has a flat screen TV and a queen-sized sleeper sofa. Pocket doors separate the parlor from the dining room, which has seating for four. The galley-style kitchen is fully equipped with all you’ll need for a weekend getaway or extended stay. The large, elegant bedroom has a king-sized bed with soft, luxurious bedding.

The Wilkes House is an ideal location to call home while exploring the varied sights and activities around the Historic District. Located in the middle of our bustling Design District, stylish shops dot the streets among several historic homes open for touring, including the Mercer Williams House and the childhood home of Flannery O’Connor. With a three night or longer say, you’ll receive one free lunch for two at Mrs. Wilkes’ Dining Room, where you’ll dine like a local and feel like family!

Why Lucky Savannah Loves this Property:
- Take a leisurely morning stroll through nearby Forsyth Park, Savannah’s largest green space and a popular location for weddings and festivals.
- A small patio in the back is the perfect spot to enjoy a fine Savannah morning and cup of coffee.
- This home has a washer and dryer for added convenience.

Sleeping Configuration:
Bedroom 1: King Bed
Living Room: Queen Sleeper Sofa

What is parking like for this home?
This home has on-street, metered parking which is enforced by the City of Savannah Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm.

*Guests receive one free lunch for two with every three-night or more booking. The restaurant is typically closed for the month of January. Please contact the Mrs. Wilkes Restaurant directly regarding open and seasonal hours as these may vary. In the event of restaurant closure, we are unable to offer refunds but guests are welcome to use the lunch voucher on your next visit!

We are residents of Savannah and needed a place for a week while we had some home renovations and chose this gracious historical district walk up. It had everything we needed and was a great way to play tourist in Savannah and come and go to work. The washing machine and dryer was a boon and Forsyth park and its Saturday farmers market was a delight.
I recommend it for travelers and stay ationers alike.

Great stay and history!

The location is great. We walked everywhere. Description accurate. The property is not as tidy as I would like. But I realize it is an old property. For instance the kitchen cupboard doors need cleaning. Washer and dryer worked well. Dishwasher door appeared to need repair. Customer service was good. The staff was helpful. I would recommend this property to others. We saw the Low house, the house where Gen Sherman stayed. The Public restaurant has really good food. Also The Collins is good food with 2 locations.

This has been a return stay at The Wilkes House. We had a couple with us that had never been to Savannah and we had a wonderful time. Visited River Street,
went to Lighthouse at Tybee Island, Savannah carriage ride, Mercer House tour, Cathedral tour, Georgia Queen boat trip and of course our favorite was our lunch at the Wilkes Restaurant. The first time I ate at Wilkes (over 20 yrs ago), I was priviledged to have Mrs Wilkes personally sign our cookbook. It was exciting to see that Ryan (the grandson) has continued the family tradition. Our stay at the home was great. We walked a few blocks to Clary's evey morning and had breakfast. It is true, JONES ST, is the most beautiful street in America.

We had a wonderful vacation to Savannah! The location was great and the food at Mrs.Wilkes was the best we had during our stay! There are some great places to eat nearby and everything was walking distance to eat. I would suggest the trolley at the visitor center as it will give you a good idea where everything is. If you buy around mid day they will give you two days. The lunch included at Mrs. Wilkes is great as you don’t have to wait in line just tell them your staying there. We had a mishap with cleaning day during our stay and my shampoo and conditioner were tossed but they replace it for me! You will love it! I do have one suggestion for the place. We did not have a car and flew to Savannah. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies but having some coffee and creamer would be great to have in the place. We knew we would eat out everyday but morning coffee is a must for us. There were no stores walking distance opened when we arrived that you could buy coffee and creamer. We ended buying some at Walgreens the next day when we noticed it taking the shuttle. Thanks for a lovely stay!

The house was precious and we loved staying there. We didn’t get to have lunch since they were closed for the holiday weekend, but otherwise the only negative was that it was a little warm inside. But being from New Orleans originally I know it is sometimes hard to get old houses to cool down enough when it is really hot outside.
Overall, great location, great house, great trip!

Location of property was wonderful. Walking distance to beautiful historical downtown Savannah. Apartment was furnished beautifully; comfortable bed. All essentials were available in kitchen if you were so inclined to cook your own meals. Only negative I have is the entry process. Had trouble getting front door key, but I think because we had traveled a few hours, it was very hot and we were tired. I got very frustrated, but was able figure out the process. We would definitely stay here again!

the pied a terre above Mrs. Wilkes house was the perfect lay-out and location for our work-from-home stay/play week in Savannah. The large, high ceilinged rooms helped us to spread out for conference calls when needed but felt homey and cozy when the work day ended. Super well-located in the heart of the historic district so we were able to walk everywhere and enjoy the beauty of Savannah

We had a great time in Savannah. We come every year around Christmas. This was a good vacation rental. Plenty of space for our family and we really enjoyed going to Wilkes for lunch.. this is definitely something we will do again. This location was a little further from the river than we like... probably 15-20 minute walk. Also, the sheets on the bed in the master bedroom did not fit the bed and would come off every time you laid down. This was super annoying. Otherwise this is a good rental.

It was beautiful. 107 was gorgeous. It had everything one could want for a stay in Savannah. When you advised us to get a parking pass, that was good advice. It made parking easier. When we arrived to the door a nice young man helped us unlock and enter the building. Later we found out he was Mrs Wilkes great grandson. We also met Marcia and she asked how we liked the room and did I see her wedding picture. She signed my cookbook. It was so exciting going down the back stairs, then going through the kitchen where wonders were happening and joining the “regulars” for the most delicious lunch ever. In leaving we forgot to put the key back in the box which we mailed back but maybe an extra mention at checkout about the key like, “ Did you return the key to the lockbox?” Not sure if this would have helped this old couple though. I am recommending this experience to everyone I know who has Savannah on their bucket list. I even wrote a poem about it! Thanks again. Diane

We visited the Wilkes House for lunch over 40 years ago. After telling so many folks about it through the years, we decided to visit there again for our 45th anniversary. Much to our delight our children put us up for 2 nights at the Wilkes House. Even though we could only do take out from the restaurant, we enjoyed the food once again. The portions are very generous and it was a delight to meet Mr & Mrs Wilkes granddaughter. A must visit if you are in Savannah. If you are taking the trolley, visit Old Savannah Tours and ask for Mr Komedy!

My husband and I had the privilege of staying at Mrs. Wilkes House on beautiful Jones St. in late March. The location in the historic district is amazing as it is a nice walk to many Savannah attractions. The apartment exceded our expectations, not only in size, but also due to cleanliness and thoughtful supplies left for us. I didn't think it was possible to live like a local in the truest sense of the phrase. If you stay here you will not be disappointed! You must make time to have lunch at the famous Mrs. Wilkes homestyle, cooked from scratch, alfresco luncheon on Jones St. Such a great experience overall; and we also highly recommend Lucky Savannah property management co. They are on top of every detail from communication before and during stay, to excellent housekeeping hires. Thank you to all for a much needed getaway!!!

Our stay at Mrs. Wilkes was phenomenal! The unit was extremely spacious, decorated with beautiful antiques, very clean and in the absolute best location and on the most beautiful street in all of Savannah. I hesitate to admit all of this as then perhaps the unit will never be free again for us. LOL We were amazed that a lunch for two which could have fed 10 was included at Mrs. Wilkes kitchen below. We have stayed at many hotels, bed and breakfasts etc but nothing compares to our stay at Mrs. Wilkes. Thank you!!

The charm of Savanah surrounded us in this lovely home. We were able to park our car in front of the residence and it never moved for the three nights we stayed as we walked everywhere. We had fun sitting on the porch people watching as hungry visitors lined up to experience Mrs. Wilkes fantastic dinners. The beauty, history, dining, shopping unsurpassed and staying in this charming home topped off the Savanah Experience. Delightful.

What a charming place stay. If you love historic homes, you’ll appreciate the Wiles House. Located on a quiet tree lined street in the heart of the historic district, you are within walking distance to many restaurants, shops, museums and historic homes to tour. We loved that the apartment retained it’s original period details such as the fireplaces, ceiling medallions, hardwood floors and moldings. Very, very spacious with large rooms (except bathrooms and kitchen, but that was fine with us). For the most part things were clean and well maintained. The living furniture has seen better days...the sofa was sagging and felt grungy and a bit smelly.. we didn’t sit on it. The shower curtain liner was covered with mold and the fitted sheet was too small for the bed and would pop off while we slept, wrapping around us...we had to get up several times during the night to remake the bed. As a vacation rental owner myself, I make sure to stay in our rental 3 or 4 times a year to experience it like a guest and make note of anything that needs maintained or replaced. With just a few tweaks the Wilkes House will be a 5 star stay for sure.

The Wilkes house is in a fantastic location and accessible to everything you want in Savannah. Sidenote.... I am currently exploring moving my business to Savannah at some point.

This was our 2nd stay in the Wilkes House. We have enjoyed both very much. The location is great. The apartment is spacious, inviting and clean. Our only complaint is the bed and couch are horribly broken down and need replaced. My husband and I both suffered from a sore back and lack of sleep due to the bed. It felt like I was sleeping in a hole. Other than that, it was lovely! We also appreciate the option for late check out as our flight was leaving late. Thank you!

Home was beautiful! New kitchen and bathroom. Felt like I was back in time. Place was immaculate. People living above our “apartment” were noisy, though. I was up until 3 one night. I did leave a note asking them to be a little quieter and they were. The key pad on the exterior door(street) was difficult to manage. You need the same kind that is on the interior door or something similar. Savannah is a beautiful city and our rental was in a beautiful spot. Would definitely recommend. You can walk everywhere. No need to rent a car. One more thing. Rental company was extremely easy to work with!!!

Very big one bedroom apartment. Spacious and historic. Very clean! The mattress wasn’t great, especially if you are used to a memory foam mattress. Being right above the restaurant did make it very noisy from about 10am-4pm. Great location can walk to shops, parks and restaurants. Street parking can be a bit tight but we never had issues finding a spot on block or next block.

We returned to Mrs. Wilkes for two weeks this year and loved every day. The location is superb, right in the middle of the historic district. The apartment is very spacious and has enormous windows that fill the apartment with light. The washer/dryer are a big plus, but we especially loved the 11-12-foot ceilings. We slipped right back into the 19th century. The staff at Lucky Savannah is so professional and gracious. Thank you, Josh and Amanda! Try the great shrimp and grits at Huey's on the River. Within two blocks of this apartment, enjoy Gryphon for a most unusual and charming environment and delicious food served artfully and Art's for fabulous smoothie bowls when you just need to be refreshed with a snack or light meal. We walked 2-5 miles a day to get to know the spectacular historic buildings and beautiful squares. Don't hesitate to use the pedicabs (reasonable and fun) and the DOT (free). Both are excellent. We plan to return!

We thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing space, the perfect location, the historical significance, the beauty, and the functionality of the home. It was perfect for a romantic week celebrating our anniversary. The complimentary lunch at Mrs. Wilkes was a great perk. I would advise guests to bring a hanging toiletry bag for the bathroom as there is little space with the pedestal sink. Having the extra powder room really made the mornings go smoothly. The bed was very comfortable. It was convenient to have the washer/dryer and complete kitchen for our week long stay. Property manager was great when we needed help setting the a/c. The property was so welcoming that after each long day of exploring, we felt we were "coming home".

Apt was great. Location was fantastic. Rooms were large. High ceilings, great furnishings. The 1 1/2 bath was perfect for 3 people.
Minor hiccup with the bldg key, but that was handled promptly by mgmt. No key in the key lock on the bldg front door, but for some reason the door wasn't locked when we got there so no problem. There was an electronic lock on the door to the apt which was easy to use. Mgmt brought a key for the bldg front door for later use as the door was locked during the rest of our stay.
My only caution would be that if you are a light sleeper, the noise in the restaurant below could bother you in the morning as well as the line out front.
There are stairs up to the front door and a narrow hallway in the apt, so if a person needs assistance with a wheelchair or walker, this wouldn't work. Otherwise I would recommend the rental and if I go back, I would certainly stay there again.

The apartment is very large, three very large rooms and a modest kitchen. The bathrooms are small but ok.
It has a dark feel due to limited natural lighting and being decorated in the general idea of maybe a century ago, but not quite. The photos show different furniture than what we actually had. For example, there was no robin’s egg blue sofa, only a drab brown one in its place. The lack of brighter colorsfelt gloomy, but is consistent with the era. The bed was ok. The location for us was good, quieter street but within walking distance for most of our needs. An unexpected nice perk was eating in the restaurant on the first floor. Much better than expected for s family style restaurant. Staff was so friendly.

Staying at the Wilkes House was a real treat for mine and my husband's 10th Wedding Anniversary. The home was beautiful, and convenient to everything the city has to offer. There were only 2 things that offered some disappointment... 1. We were still offered a comped meal at Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, but they no longer offer you first entrance so we had to wait in line for 2.5 hours. That being said, waiting wasn't terrible because we enjoyed conversations with other visitors and the weather was beautiful. It was disappointing though to miss out on 2 hours of seeing the city because we had to wait for lunch (and when we booked the room it was promised that we would be given behind the scenes access). 2. This one can't be helped by the management of the property, but they were filming a movie right on the street we were staying, which meant at 1:00 AM people were yelling, horses were running up the street and dogs were barking. We also had to have someone escort us to our apartment almost each time we wanted to walk down the street, we were told by police each time that we wanted to take a picture of the street we were staying on that we couldn't do so, and we had to park 3 blocks away (The movie crew did offer us a free parking pass for the weekend so that worked out well). Once again, the folks at Lucky Savannah weren't responsible for that and they communicated all the changes to us exceptionally well, it just became frustrating when you wanted to get back to get ready for dinner and had to wait for them to cut a scene and walk you back to your room. Overall, though, we truly enjoyed staying here and would stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a nice time away in Savannah.

We enjoyed our stay in Mrs. Wilkes home. The apartment was very clean and furnished with beautiful antiques. The king sized bed was very comfortable. The location was very good. We enjoyed breakfast at Clary's in the morning and the bar and grill nearby for dinner (both within walking distance). Of course the food in the dining room was outstanding and the hospitality great. The only slight concern we had was the noise from the workers in the dining room right below after the dining room closed for the day. Very unnecessary yelling each day. Hard to relax in the afternoons. Very loud. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will recommend to our friends.

We had a wonderful time in Savannah. The apartment was very inviting. The bed is so super comfortable. I wanted to bring it home. A very romantic and charming place to stay on the most beautiful street in Savannah, at least in my opinion. The location is amazing, within walking distance to everything! The only minor issue(s) we had is that;
1) Our reservation was a cut day short, but that was an error on our part, as well, as we didn't check our confirmation closely.
2) While it didn't bother us, just be aware that the line for the restaurant IS right outside your bedroom window and they line up bright and early, so it can be a little noisy. If your a light sleeper, this may bother you.
We met some wonderful people, the restaurant is amazing and the staff are fabulous. I would definitely stay here again!

Our stay at Mrs. Wilkes' one bedroom apt. made our trip to Savannah special. After reading about its days as a boarding house, sleeping in a room that held a wedding in the early 1900's and being above Mrs. Wilkes restaurant, we felt lucky to be a part of the Wilkes' House history. We loved the fireplaces and other architectural details, and the extra bathroom was a bonus. The free shuttle service to the river and city market is just a block away. The neighborhood is beautiful and historical, and easy to explore on foot. We're glad we took advantage of the lunch at the restaurant. Not only because of the good southern cooking, but because of the large helping of southern hospitality when we met Marcia and some nice people at our table!

We loved our apartment at the Wilkes house. It was clean, beautiful and the perfect location for touring Savannah. The one problem was in getting a key to the front door. Our print out said an extra would be in the room which we could not find. The apartment above us took the only key in the lockbox for their use and that left us wondering how to get in at night. The management was most helpful in helping us get the extra key in the second lockbox but was a little confusing. All in all we definitely would return and loved the dinner at Mrs. Wilkes. It was a GREAT trip.

The one day we were in we did hear some noise from the restaurant below, but not terrible, and only for a few hours.

The suite itself is three large rooms, a galley kitchen and bath and a half. It could use some freshening up, i.e. paint and kitchen, but it is still charming. The bedroom is large and the bed comfortable. The kitchen is basic, but fine for our limited use for breakfasts and snacks. It was nice to have a washer and dryer so we didn't leave with a suitcase full of laundry.

Dinner at Mrs. Wilkes was, as always, delicious

All in all it was very nice. Susan loved the historic residence and the family style meal of southern cooking was very satisfying and enjoyable. It was fun meeting and chatting with the owner. It really added a personal touch and connection to Savannah. And I'm sure we will return on another special occasion.

Close to everything!

We took a family vacation here, and at the other unit on the Wilkes property. Both units were well appointed, but I thought the other one had a better floor plan. The bathroom was located off of the dining room, so if there were people visiting in your unit, you ran the risk of them seeing you post shower. (put your clothes on in the bathroom) The only cleaning issue we saw, was that the air return vents were dusty. The staff was wonderful, and even got us "back door" entrance to Mrs. Wilkes. The free meal with the rental really makes this a good deal. This location is close to many attractions, and the family members on this trip were impressed with the facilities. I would stay here again!

A great location with an "Old Savannah" feel

Several small problems (front door lock) but rental agency handled everything immediately and was extremely polite and efficient. Apartment was clean and beautifully furnished. A little noisy in bedroom in the morning when line forms but fair trade off for the wonderful aroma that drifts up from downstairs. Will return again for sure.

Great location, charming historic home. Kitchen sparsely furnished although we didn't need it. Bathrooms were very small but at least there was an extra half bath. Could use some updating and de cluttering.

We had the best time in Savannah!! We wanted to stay somewhere that had a true Savannah feel and this property fit the bill!! As stated in previous reviews the front door is a little tricky but we called the management and they were very helpful. We went over the weekend so we didn't get to try Mrs. Wilkes restaurant but hopefully next time.

This is a spacious apartment on the prettiest street in Savannah. It was comfortable and welcoming. We enjoyed the period decor, comfortable bed, good lighting, separate dining room, smart TV. It was an easy walk to all places of interest.

We have been coming to the Wilkes House and staying every Fall for the last 3 years. We absolutely love this location. You can walk everywhere in the historic district or hop on the free transportation just around the corner. The space is huge and comfortable. You have your own kitchen and laundry facilities which saves on the food budget and you don't have to pack so many clothes. Jones Street is absolutely beautiful! And you can't beat eating downstairs at Mrs. Wilkes. Lucky Savannah is very responsive to any of your needs. We highly recommend this rental!

Staying at the property was a great experience. There were no surprises when we got there. The owner was very friendly and we greatly enjoyed eating downstairs at Mrs. Wilkes. The food is always fantastic!
We stayed at the property over the Thanksgiving holiday and enjoyed walking around Savannah as well as riding the shuttle bus. Everywhere we ate at provided very delicious food. Savannah also has a lot of great vegetarian/vegan options. Fox and Fig is a must!
My only advice is to give the property a little more TLC and fresh update with some paint and shine.
