Cohen's Retreat

Cohen's Retreat is a five-acre destination in Savannah's Moon River District, built in 1934 and lovingly restored after more than 50 years as a nursing home. Today it operates as a gathering place anchored by three ideas — art, food, and community — with a full-service restaurant, the Brown Dog Market carrying local and regional artisan wares, and 10 individually decorated cottages spread across grounds shaded by moss-draped live oaks. The venue offers several event spaces scaled to different occasions. The Art Tank, with its exposed brick, rustic wood floors, and wall-to-wall windows, accommodates up to 150 seated guests and suits weddings, rehearsal dinners, and milestone celebrations. For smaller groups, the Clubhouse seats 30 and stands 50, the Atrium holds up to 25 seated, and the Perennial and Chef's Table handle intimate gatherings of 14 and 12 guests respectively. Rental fees include setup and breakdown, tables, chairs, linens, and glassware; food and beverage are coordinated exclusively through the venue's in-house team.
