My husband and I went to Darien for a quite weekend away and chose Open Gates B&B for our place to stay. We've stayed in a lot of B&Bs and this one rates as one of the top on the list. Jeff and Kelly have created a wonderful haven in the historic area of Darien. We had the downstairs room... More

There is much to like about this bed and breakfast. It is located in the heart of town next to a small park (Vernon Square) and has a gorgeous library and a large salt water pool. Jeff, the host is personable and attentive and serves a delicious breakfast. The Island Room and its private bath are roomy and the bed... More

We had a great stay at the Open Gates. It was a haven of relaxation - and if Darien is a little off the beaten track, the calm and hospitality on offer gave us as a family the energy to do excursions to Cumberland Island, Okefenokee, Jekyll Island etc. Savannah would have been the same distance too. Plus Fort St... More

I recently stayed at Open Gates for two nights with my school age children upon the recommendation of a relative and friend. This was my children's first stay at a B&B. We all enjoyed the time there as the room was spacious, well decorated and well furnished. We stayed upstairs and enjoyed the comfy bed. Our hosts were friendly, knowledgeable... More

My husband had business nearby so we stayed for 2 nights at Open Gates. I only wish we had more time to do all the interesting things nearby. We'll definitely return for pleasure. We stayed in the room on the ground floor of the main house. The bed was so unbelievably comfortable and lush. The sheets were soft as can... More

We recently stayed at this bed and breakfast for a short break along the Georgia Coast. The hosts were so pleasant and saw to our every need. The house is gorgeous, built in 1876, and was decorated for the holiday season which only added to its charm. Our bedroom was spacious, clean and the bed was SO comfortable. Breakfast was... More

Open Gates is on a beautiful square, walking distance from the waterfront and good restaurants. The bed was one of the most comfortable we've slept in, with soft sheets. We enjoyed a glass of wine in the library while perusing books about the history of the GA coast. Breakfast was delicious. The innkeepers are delightful and made us feel at... More

It's difficult to tell what is more charming, the small village of Darien or Open Gates B&B. They both won our hearts. We had looked for a place just off the Interstate, planning to spend just one night. But this was so special that we lingered on for an extra day, the highlight of a recent 12-day roadtrip. Gracious hosts,... More

My Wife and I have visited Open Gates many times and we will keep coming back !. We love Darien and Open Gates. We were just there this April (we live in Atlanta) with our Son, his wife and our youngest son and as usual had a great time. We have stayed at B&B's in the US Canada and Europe... More
