    Bonaventure Cemetery is enormous, peaceful, and absolutely beautiful during daylight hours. The…read moremoss-draped trees, historic monuments, detailed statues, and quiet pathways create some of the most striking scenery in Savannah. Licensed companies do offer permitted after-hours tours, but missing this place in the morning or late afternoon would be a terrible shame. The natural light filtering through the trees gives the entire cemetery an atmosphere that no flashlight could duplicate. Visitors can drive through the cemetery, pull over in designated areas or along the wider roads, park, and explore on foot. Give yourself plenty of time and wear comfortable shoes. Completely exploring the grounds would take hours--they are far larger than they initially appear, and nearly every path contains another monument, family plot, or piece of history worth examining. Please remember that this is still an active cemetery and treat every grave with respect. I arrived equipped for a full paranormal investigation. My recorders were charged, my instruments were calibrated, and I had prepared a carefully worded invitation for any cooperative spirit willing to communicate. Unfortunately, I visited during the Thanksgiving holiday. After several hours without a single unexplained voice, shadow, cold spot, or spectral manifestation, I was forced to conclude that the entire ghost population had taken the day off. Presumably, they were visiting deceased relatives--or haunting a more traditional holiday dinner elsewhere in Savannah. I left three respectful messages and asked them to contact me upon returning, but so far, my recorder has captured nothing except wind, birds, and my own stomach demanding leftover pie. Bonaventure is well worth visiting even when the spirits are unavailable. It is a magnificent combination of history, art, nature, and wonderfully Southern Gothic atmosphere. Five stars. I will be returning for another investigation once the ghosts have finished their holiday break.

    I was only in Savannah for about 10 hours and someone working at Wormsloe told me I had to stop…read morehere. I loved that you have the option to drive or walk. I didn't spot any parking right away so I decided to drive through, which turned out to be a great way to see more in a short amount of time. I still got out of my car to walk around a bit when I wanted to see something up close. The area is gorgeous, plenty of shade from the beautiful trees. I only stayed for 20 minutes but it was a perfect and quick way to explore the cemetery. It's also free, so nothing better than that!

    This funeral home is terrible. They were hired to service my father's funeral on 1/12/2023. The…read moreonly good thing I can say about them is that they did a good job on my father's body. Everything else was unacceptable. First, after the viewing, they rushed us into our cars to go to the graveside service. Only, we didn't immediately leave. We all waited in our cars for about 10 minutes until two men came out and asked "Where are the pallbearers?!" Ummm...you mean my brother and my partner? No one informed us that we were expected to bring our own pallbearers. We assumed that the $11,000 we were charged for the funeral that would include pallbearers. My brother, partner, and two cousins jumped up and volunteered themselves to help move my father's coffin into the hearse. Then the nightmare continues. They instructed us to follow them and then proceeded to lead us to THREE different random cemeteries before finally arriving at the correct cemetery where my father was to be buried. How do you not know which cemetery your client is to be buried at, leading a grieving family on an impromptu (and unwelcome) tour of cemeteries all over Savannah?! We finally arrived at the (correct) cemetery and noticed that my father's to be grave was at least 200 feet from where we had just parked. One of the two employees remarked "Well if I had known it was this far, I would have brought the rolling cart. Oh well." The "pall bearers" (my brother, carrying his own father's coffin, my partner, and my two cousins) struggled to carry the 250 lbs+ coffin to the grave. The service, thankfully, went without any additional problems. But the ordeal continued the next day when we realized that we had never received our father's death certificate. We called the nursing home that he passed away at and they stated that Adam's Funeral never sent them the certificate to be signed by their physician. We then had our legal representative call Adam's, and they curtly said that they would only speak to the person who paid for the funeral. So my brother and I went to the funeral home ourselves (along with our legal representative). They immediately claimed that they had just faxed the death certificate to the nursing home (of course). I wouldn't recommend anyone trust this funeral in handing one of the most stressful and traumatic experiences of their lives. Stay away.

    Extremely nice people running this funeral home. They were a blessing in taking care of my mothers…read morememorial and cremation which was very last minute notice. Thank you so much for helping to put together a beautiful service for my mother.

    My son was cremated over 6 weeks ago. I was told on several occasions that his ashes have been…read moreshipped over a week ago. They told his mother they sent them Friday and would provide a tracking number. They have not. There was a blatant mistake in his death certificate. They were supposed to send us an unofficial corrected death certificate. They haven't. I've left messages for Philip and Dusty all last week and their manager Pam this morning. No one has yet to call me back. They are incompetent and completely unprofessional by not returning one phone call. I would never recommend them to anyone. We still have not received his ashes. They were in constant contact when they wanted payment. However after you pay them they will not give you the common courtesy of returning phone calls. Totally unprofessional. Before they file the certificates they should send people drafts to approve or something. I'm beginning to wonder if they misplaced or lost his ashes. We need the death certificate for a charity event. So no I wouldn't recommend them.

I have paid them in full WEEKS ago and I still have no death certificate. I have been told that "post it" notes would be given to Tiffany who is the person in charge of handling these and that she would overnight them to me immediately. That was several days before Christmas. It's now the 2nd of January and I finally got in touch with Tiffany who had no idea what I was talking about but "will look into it." Not a single phone call made to me, ever, explaining the delay or concern. I continue to call, continue to drive to their facility, and still nothing. This is outrageous. No one needs this additional stress during such a challenging and emotional time. Nothing can be accomplished without this very necessary document, which has prevented my family from finalization and suspended us in grief. I would absolutely NOT recommend.
