The Chicken Shack, Funky | Eclectic | Dog-Friendly

The Space

Situated on a quiet corner, the Shack provides a quirky and fun space that only adds to the unique experience Savannah offers. Directly inside, you will find a small but spacious living room featuring an oversized sofa, stylish décor, and a smart TV ready to stream your favorite shows. Walk towards the kitchen and notice the industrial-style ventilation tucked along the vaulted ceiling, adding a modern flair. At the same time, unique corrugated metal cabinets make this a one-of-a-kind kitchen. Find everything you need to cook in the kitchen, including a full suite of appliances, cookware, dishware, and utensils. Directly off the kitchen is a small dining space with a steeple-style roof line wrapped in metal and large windows looking out into the large backyard. The single bedroom features a new queen mattress wrapped in fresh linens and plush pillows and its own bathroom and private patio. The patio is fully screened in and provides comfortable furniture, making it a perfect place to enjoy morning coffee. The bathroom features a single vanity and low-entry shower with custom tile, adding splashes of color. The bathroom is outfitted with all essentials, including towels, toilet paper, shampoo, and body wash. Working remotely during your stay? The comfortable space and our high-speed Wi-Fi make setting up your home office a breeze.

Guest Access

The entire house is set up for your use. We have a screened-in patio (Mosquito-Free!) and a large yard you can let your dogs run around in! Please be sure to clean up after your pet and make sure they aren't left unattended at any point. The Yard is secure however it would be easy to jump the side fence and if you have a dog that likes to dig, it could get under the back gate.
