About this property

Quiet Darien GA Home

Historic home built in the 1880's with all the modern conveniences you'd expect. Steps away from downtown Darien. Come enjoy all the amazing nature sanctuaries and shopping that Darien and nearby St. Simons and Jekyll Island have to offer, all while relaxing in this renovated home built over 130 years ago.
The home itself has two living rooms and a reading room, which make for great space to spread out and relax. A large HD TV with surround sound and HD programming will appeal to movie fans and help pass the time. A reading day bed is great for book worms who want to enjoy some silent time. And for the history buff, historic Fort King George (est 1721) is five minutes away. Finally, if you have a boat, a boat ramp/put in point is less than ten minutes away at Mudcat Charlies. From here you can explore our beautiful waterways and nearby islands, such as Blackbeard, Sapelo, and Little St. Simons island! Adventure awaits because this house has it all!

Anniversary trip to Darien

This house has so much character and is decorated beautifully. Everything was super clean and all appliances worked perfectly. Located in a quiet neighborhood and convenient to everything. Darien is an interesting town and served as our home base for travels to Savannah and Brunswick.

Great find!

We were happy to find such a wonderful place for our overnight stop on our way to NC. It was an adorable and quiet neighborhood. The home was very clean, the beds were super comfortable and it had everything you could want, including coffee, plush towels and more. Add in that we could walk to a wine shop and seafood dinner after a day in the car … we will definitely stay again!!

Delightful Darien

Our stay in Darien was a perfect getaway. The historic house is far lovelier than the pictures. The location was walking distance to the quaint town. The fresh seafood was fabulous and the slow, sweet pace of a small town was exactly what we needed. We are already planning a return trip in the fall.

Everything is provided for a comfortable stay, coded door lock for front seems to be a continuing issue but was fairly quickly resolved. Much older house with modern upgrades and set in the historic area of Darien and quiet neighborhood.

Another great stay

The host is prompt and professional with communication. The property is very clean and the a/c works nicely in the main bedroom that we use. It’s a great location for a quick stroll to dinner after a day in the car in transit. Will stay again!

Great home in a very quaint town!!!

We were overnight guests on our way to Florida. The town and home is extremely convenient from the freeway. The neighborhood is very quiet and a great place to walk your 4-legged friends if traveling with them! Also in walking distance were restaurants, a wine bar, and local brewery. After a day of driving, having everything in walking distance was awesome! The house was extremely clean, had everything you need, and had that 1800: charm! We would recommend without hesitation.

Family visit in Darien.

Great old historic home in a great location. Close to downtown, so easy getting around. Our only surprise was an additional VRBO in the garage in the back yard, so we had unexpected company. Great visit overall and we would return.

Just right

We needed a place to stay that was centrally located on the Georgia coast. This place is perfectly located so that we could go up and down the coast in little time. We were very pleased with the stocked kitchen as we prepared many of our meals at the house. I am picky about mattresses and the king bed was very comfy. Darien is a nice town and we enjoyed biking around it. Finally, I enjoyed reading about some of the history of the home.

Quiet Darien Home

The property is in an excellent location near restaurants and many attractions. Clean house and comfortable beds. We did enjoy the house. We initially had a problem getting the door unlocked. John promptly returned my call and helped. One improvement needed inside is the stove. (We do cook breakfast early because Darien lacks breakfast restaurants.) The burners on the stove do not sit evenly—this makes using them a precarious undertaking. The main TV has 3 or 4 remotes. Who, at 77, knows what to do?? Fortunately, we don’t watch much TV. The info notebook on the house and Darien needs updating. One final comment: I do not like being forced to buy damage insurance or pay a very high deposit, which I’m told I may not have returned. There is just my husband and I. At 77 we are very respectful of others’ property and are early to bed, early to rise. Still, we liked the house and history and enjoyed our stay.

Quiet getaway

Very nice older house on a quiet street. The house has everything you would need. Very clean. Easy walking distance to several restaurants with the freshest seafood you can get anywhere. St. Simons Island Beach is only 1/2 an hour away and is an easy and beautiful drive. John the property manager responded quickly to any of our questions or concerns. My wife and I loved the house and will definitely stay again.
