My husband and I lived in Fort Stewart for 3 years. When we first moved there we lived in Apartments outside of Gate 7. We then moved into a house outside of Gate 8. We loved living so close to the gates but not having to live on post. We lived off post the whole time we were there so I do not know much about housing on-post. Since Hinesville is so small this was not our favorite place but it was nice to be about an hour from Savannah. I think we would have like the area better if we lived close to Savannah but they moved my husband's unit down to Hinesville right before we got there. I would not move over by the Walmart. The areas around it are not the best. We had the best luck finding a house with Holtzman Realtors for rental homes. Just make sure you actually go look at the house before you rent it. DO NOT just go off pictures especially if you have pets. If you want to be a little further out (about 20-30 mins away from post) there are some nice houses/areas in Richmond Hill and Ludiwici.
hi everyone my name is Tiffany and my husbsnd and I are doing our first pcsing the beginning of June. I could really use some help finding a house to rent in a good family friendly neighborhood. This is what I'm looking for. . 3 bedrooms 2 bathrooms with preferably a garage but not mandatory 1250-1500 square feet if possible for no more then $900/month. I know this may not be fully attainable but I would like to try. I have a three and a half year old daughter and a nice neighborhood is a must. I won't be working right away so it has to stay within our budget till I can get a job. Thanks or all your help in advance. I've been all over the internet and its hard to know what areas of hinesville are the best.
My husband I and our 3 dogs(2 pugs and a boxer) are being stationed to Ft Stewart come the end of the year. Ive heard mixed reviews on Hinesville. Can anyone please list neighborhoods I should stay clear of and which ones I should look in to for renting a house? My top three must haves are: 1. No more than 20mins to the ba
I am thinking of choosing Fort Stewart as a duty station and would like to know how employment is for spouses in the area and also when does the school year begin. I will be moving around school start next year but would like to be sure to get there before it does start.
If anyone needs a house...I have one for rent that's just remodeled with granite floors and fireplace. It has new paint inside and out and a one car garage with a storage room and a walk in pantry. Also has a large interior laundry room. Sorry we can’t take pets either. People don’t realize the cost involved after they damage a house. This house is only 4 to 5 miles from everything including the Fort Stewart gate. 3 bedroom//2 bath 950 a month.

Hi me and my fiance will be moving to Fort Stewart this July. Am unfamiliar with area as I have lived in Maryland and now coming from California. I have been doing alot of research in homes whether to live on post and off. I am use to military rules and think its best we live off post. Can anyone give m eideas on best places or areas to stay off post. I was looking at Independence or Governors Square. I have noticed the more luxurious or new the higher the cost. As of right now he is in the field and wants me to start looking at places. I will be by myself during deployments at times so safety is a big concern of mine. Look forward to your comments or suggestions
Cassandra L. says: This is South Georgia so expect it to be HOT!!!
We chose to live in Richmond Hill. It's about 20-30 mins from post but LOTS of military families live here. Worth the drive for the school systems and access to Savannah.
As far as things for kids and family…There's a place called Jump N Jacks (http://fortstewart.patch.com/listings/jump-n-jacks) that has plenty of indoor play areas with bowling arcade for the bigger kids and inflatables for the little ones. Great place for kids!
First Baptist Church of Richmond Hill - great children's programs from the nursery to teens. Have a great military ministry and made us feel at home!
Regarding my experience at Ft. Stewart as far as medical….I delivered my son at Winn Army Medical Center. As a 15 year critical care nurse I am very hard to impress with healthcare. I expect excellence. We moved during my 7th month and I really considered going off post. From arriving at Ft Stewart in May until I delivered in August the healthcare team at Winn continually impressed me. My delivery experience was wonderful and I could not have asked for anything more! Highly skilled and professional. The facility was extremely clean and state-of-the-art.
I also suffered an injury while there. The ortho clinic was amazing!
I struggled with the decision to use the Richmond Hill clinic off post simply for convenience. They do not have a pediatrician at that location. However I went with that decision and have not been disappointed. They have an incredible pediatric nurse practitioner and we have been very happy with the care.
I also used the Richmond Hill clinic for my personal healthcare. Equally impressed! The facility is clean. The staff is friendly. And ON-TIME!! I have never had to wait past my appointment time for more than 5 or 10 minutes. And when that happened they were very apologetic!

Stephanie B. asks: Well I want to know from the Fort Stewart in Savannah Georgia ladies--is there a problem with roaches or those palmetto bugs there? We have to choose a new duty station in the states and I want to go where there are NO bugs like that!
Rosanna M. says: It depends we lived off post in two different houses and the first one we never had problems because we had no trees in our yard. Our second house has like 10 pines trees in the yard and we kept having huge palmettos but we uses Home Defense spray around our house and it killed them.
Ft Stewart is the crappiest ba

Rochelle L. says: My husband and I rented a house on E Oglethorpe after living here for a month with one of his buddies. we were headed home from visiting his sister in NC and barely noticed it from where it was tucked into the woods. We are only five minutes from gate 3. But about 15 to his troop 3-7. Only problem is a local women owns our house and doesn't advertise her properties anywhere .
Casey H. says: We are looking to rent most likely... just dont want to like 30-45 mins away from ba

Mary S. says: That was our first duty station back in 04-06 we LOVED it! Loved it so much we plan on going back to that area when hubby retires!

Stewart for 8 years...my mom and siter are both real estate brokers and cover the three countys surrounding...if you need a rental or want to buy...call Karen 912-665-2943 she is awesome and will help you!!! :) I would recommend living in the Berwick Plantation area....Richmond Hill if you have children! :) Good Luck with your move.
Janet R. says: We are moving there at the end of March... anyone know much about Ludowici area??
Bri W. says: Lupe my kids went to Windsor Forest and it was one of the best in Savannah. I always researched the schools in the area on schoolmatters.com before pcsing.
Jennifer J. says: Ludowici is tiny tiny but the rent is cheap. My brother lives in Glennville & has a 3br 2ba for $400/mo. Compared to Hinesville it could be worth the drive. I lived in Ludowici once & hated the commute on the deer infested road
