This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath house sits on Brighton Creek in Darien, GA, overlooking Doboy Sound and Sapelo Island. It is believed to have been built using salvaged materials from several nearby homes blown down in the hurricane of 1825 – an original repurposing project! After several renditions, it was completely restored and modernized in 2014. With a suite on the main floor and three bedrooms upstairs, fully stocked kitchen, and a large den with a large bar and wood-burning fireplace, it is the perfect location for family and/or friends gatherings. Though most will prefer to spend their time outside, enjoying the rare, uninterrupted views. The most stressful part of your stay may be deciding whether to gather on the large wraparound porch, the screened-in pavilion with fireplace, the patio or the large fire kettle placed creekside. There are plenty of spaces to gather all together or spread out for more intimate conversations. Two of the best spots for relaxing alone or in the company of others is the swinging porch bed and the outdoor sauna. Regardless of where you spend your time, you cannot help but find yourself relaxing and letting the stresses slip away.

My daughter and I found the perfect place to get some R&R before she headed off for college. My father passed away the week before, and it was absolutely perfect timing in the most exquisite location in Coastal Georgia. The Thicket Cottage is more than we ever dreamed it would be. Our souls found peace and quiet as we rocked on the front porch or relaxed in the swing daybed overlooking the exquisite marsh. From the moment we drove in the driveway and laid our eyes on this historic piece of property, we absolutely treasured soaking in all of the unique 200 year-old materials in this simply beautiful home. From the wine and charcuterie board upon arrival to the peaceful sunrises out over the unobstructed marsh view, to catching big ole crabs, to listening to the Kingfisher serenade us, it was simply incredible. We used this as a fabulous jumping off point and explored northward through all of the little fishing villages and communities. We even took the ferry out to Sapelo Island one day and explored the Estuarine research reserve. It was also close enough to pop over to St. Simons to shop and to grab some delicious seafood. We have a new and deep appreciation for this Coastal area. Emma's Driftwood Farm is a treasure. It was perfect for the two of us, however, I can't wait to bring a bigger group back to stay in some of the other homes on the property. The oak trees heavy with moss, the Adirondack chairs at the fire pit, and the wild peaceful marsh were spectacular.
