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!

This was a perfect waypoint on our journey. Located in a quaint quiet neighborhood with towering moss covered oaks with quick access to I-95. This home has old world charm and modern convenience.
The home was everything we expected and more. Very clean and decorated beautifully. Located in a safe, walkable, intown area close to restaurants and shops.
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.
Loved this charming home. It is close to a couple great places to eat. The house is nice and has lots of interesting historical info, both about the house and the town. Enjoyed our stay here
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!!
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.
This home is exactly like the listing said and showed on the web page. Clean, comfortable, in a great family friendly neighborhood. We walked to dinner which was a treat after being in a car all day.
We spent a week at the property and it was exactly as described, easy to get to, centrally located, walking distance to restaurants, able to enjoy area highlights and then come home to a quiet and relaxing environment.
We had a wonderful time at the blessing of the fleet, House was wonderful walked to town perfect location, We have stayed in the one bedroom cottage before we just love our visits
My friends and I spent one night in Darien on our way to Florida. We were so glad we found this great home instead of rooms at a chain hotel! The location was perfect, the house was charming, and the owner was very responsive and helpful. We all agreed we would stay here again!
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.
Easy to find, clean, spacious, comfortable and quiet. Well equipped for cooking. Excellent host responsiveness to questions. Great location for walking to the waterfront, the historic downtown (town plan compliments of James Oglethorpe), restaurants, and Ft. King George. Easy access to St. Simons and Sapelo Island. Wonderful stay.
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.
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.
Very nice and clean older home. Had everything you would need. Nice and safe neighborhood. We brought our dogs so I had a few late night walks and felt very safe. We spent most of our time house hunting, but we did find time for the beach st. Simons Island. It was amazing also. John was quick to answer all of our questions and let us know if anything was going on. We hope to be back in June or July.
