We had stayed n Darien before and really liked it but there is not much for dining and night life. The Oaks definitely help that! Beautiful hotel right on the river. Great rooms with balconies. Ours faced the river so we have awesome sunset views and morning views with coffee. They also have a really nice restaurant. I did a separate review for them but it was really good. The pool area is really nice and relaxing but also has a bar. Great to take a swim after driver all day. We were upgraded with a corner suite room. So nice! Lots of light from the windows. Nice living area with lots of space. The bed slept really nice. Pillows were nice and fluffy. Not the normal sandbags most places have. Awesome shower! Very big and lots of hot water. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We will be back.

Okay, the gourmet breakfast is definitely not something I could whip up at home! Our room was comfortable, cool in the summer (with our own AC), bright and private. The grounds are lush and green, and it's clear the owners put a lot of love into it. What I most appreciate is that the owners have a sense of pride in their town, Darien, and it comes through in their chats with guests. Zach was also great about giving us a vegetarian breakfast with a twist on eggs benedict- it was delicious.

Nicest motel off exit 49 / I95…read more I am rating this 3 stars for what type of hotel it is and its purpose. It is a roadside place, clean rooms with nice staff and a fair price. Nice big rooms, plenty of convenient parking and a free breakfast. The outside of the hotel desperately needs a pressure wash and the AC units need to be de-funkified, but maybe that has been taken care of since I was there.

The place is filthy and disgusting. The outdoor trash cans, one of which is in the pool area, are overflowing with garbage and rodents. The pool area is dirty....empty beer cans are all over amongst the trash and leaves. The morning we were leaving we overheard a guest who was staying in room 122 that his wife had been bitten by bedbugs and he showed the desk clerk the bugs. The breakfast kitchen area is also unkept with both waffle makers broken. Upon checking out, I told the owner about the garbage and his response was "oh".

Really disappointed with the mansion…read more This place was once the epitome of low country luxury with fantastic grounds and an opulent home; however, since the property has been under the ownership and control of the State of Georgia, the location has fallen into disrepair. Such a shame given the property's potential. The ceilings are caving in and leak whenever it rains. Half of the bathrooms are unusable. The food is fine, nothing great. The breakfast is cold with no option of warm food. Lunch is sandwiches and basic store bought salad. The dinner is very standard. Nothing remarkable. There are no snacks between meals, so bring snacks if you like to eat. The staff, while very kind, are not incentivized to provide an excellent stay and are remarkably ignorant about the local flora and fauna, which is surprising given the University of Georgia's satellite campus located less than 1/4 mile away. A child asked our "guide" if pelicans come to island, to which our guide said, "Nope, never." So when we biked to the beach (1 mile away) and saw hundreds of pelicans, our child was surprised. Our "guide" also was more concerned about getting his cash payment before going out to fish than he was about getting the poles rigged up and accommodating the older and younger members of our group. When trying to plan around weather, our "guide" said we'd have to pay twice if we tried on Day 1 and it got rained on, he was force us to give him the fishing poles back and then if we wanted to try to fish again on Day 2, then we'd have to pay again. For a purported "family friendly" and "educational" property surrounded by water, one would expect basic gear and educated resources be available at the location and not be difficult to access. I can't tell you how disappointing this place is. It has the potential to be an incredible place to learn, relax, and adventure but the ineptitude of government leadership and stewardship of taxpayer money has resulted in an overall sad excuse of a property. The taxpayers of Georgia who pay for the upkeep of this property must demand better, and if the government officials say "our hands are tied", then sell the property to a group who can actually take care of it and restore it.
