Olde Savannah Hardwood Flooring works with historic and modern homes across the area, helping homeowners understand their real options before starting a project. A quick evaluation can help you avoid unnecessary work and plan the right solution from the start.
If you’re considering new hardwood or refinishing existing floors, start with expert guidance.
Savannah has changed a lot over the years, but some places leave a lasting impression. We asked locals: If you could bring back one closed Savannah business, what would it be? And the responses were a trip down memory lane.

Buyers often choose between Wilmington Island’s quieter, residential lifestyle and Tybee Island’s classic beach town energy. Both offer coastal living near Savannah, but daily life feels very different.
Wilmington Island appeals to those who want year-round neighborhoods, easier access to mainland services, and protected boating along the Intracoastal Waterway. It offers a calmer pace of life, with Tybee’s beaches still just a short drive away.
Tybee Island delivers direct Atlantic access, public beaches, and a lively seasonal atmosphere. While homes can benefit from short-term rental demand where permitted, buyers should expect heavier traffic, greater coastal exposure, and higher flood and insurance considerations.
The right choice comes down to lifestyle. Buyers seeking quieter routines often lean Wilmington Island, while those drawn to beach access and a vacation-style environment gravitate toward Tybee.
