Darien Dockside Inn

This is THE BEST Hotel I have stayed in.
Carrie Rath, the owner, has her special touch on everything.
The little extras are very nice.
Located right in the center of everything.
This property is perfect for families, business, friends getaways.
I would book early because there is only 6 rooms.
This is the perfect Old School Low country experience.
There is a wine room, you do not want to miss.
Sundays is a couple that sings right out front of it.

Loved everything about this place! The location is a dream. Close to many restaurants and a short trip to St. Simon's Island. Do yourself a favor and walk the neighborhood. It's stunning. Local stores are wonderful and the people are so friendly. The owners could not have been more gracious and accommodating. We will return for sure!!

We stayed here on our way to Florida and loved it so much that we stayed again on our way back from Florida. The service is friendly, the rooms are clean and they give you plenty of clean, white fluffy towels. The beds are comfortable and it’s quiet.
This will be our go to hotel whenever we are passing through!

The rooms are comfortable and super clean. The sheets are soft, the towels bright white and absorbent. The keyless entry system is wonderful. Two simple codes and you're IN. No wondering where your key is now. Darien is small, so the location is very convenient. Easy walk to most bars, restaurants, historic sites, etc. Nice people and vacation pace. Can recommend it with no reservations. Oh, it's easy to reserve a room, too. I called and the owner picked up!

Very nice, very interesting hotel. I really liked it. Great location.

The room is modern. Very comfortable bed with a Big bathroom.

Out front is a big deck with chairs and a view.

There are several restaurants less than a block away. There are many state parks, historical sites and shops near by.

I consider this a find. An oasis from the big known tourist destinations.

I would call it a destination hotel. I can't give it a romantic destination. They warm you about this. The walls are a bit thin when it come to noise.

This is an absolute little gem. We are on our 20th wedding anniversary trip and we're supposed too be going to Sapelo Island, our date got passed back because of the storm so was on the hunt for a place to stay. I'm so happy we held out until we got to Darien (most regular hotels were booked and I'm thankful for that). The room is extremely clean, prefect for a couple. We will absolutely be back... and hey, if the power doesn't come back on on the island then we will be perfectly fine staying here. Thank you Dockside Inn. It's perfect!!

My mom and I stopped at this adorable inn on our way to Hilton Head and wished we could have stayed longer. The rooms was clean, comfortable, and so cute. It was within walking distance of bars and restaurants and fun historic sites. I even forgot a gift there and they shipped it to me no questions asked. I would 100% recommend!

Lovely room! Very clean, very comfortable, newly renovated inn. Powerful water pressure in shower. Soft sheets, wonderful mattress!! Slept so well. We had a choice of several walkable restaurants, darted over to Shantys for breakfast followed by a quiet walk on the beautiful side streets. Awesome privacy. Kind and helpful.

Great place to stay in Darien Georgia, overlooks the city boat ramp with a view of the altamaha river and the U.S. HWY. 17 bridge.

This was a lovely, well decorated, clean place to stay. I would say it's a cross between a hotel and an Airbnb. The raised deck out your back door has nice rocking chairs, as well as chairs and a table, which we used for a couple of meals and a board game. The breakfast vouchers were a bonus and a reason to explore another local business. The table in the lobby was helpful as my husband was able to work remotely for a couple of hours while I was tidying up for the day. The large ice machine came in handy as well. Carrie and Zach were really easy to communicate and work with. We had the suite, which was nice and roomy. We will definitely go back! (not to mention that it is located right in front of our favorite restaurant, Skippers!)

Great historic tabby warehouse converted into a quaint, self-check-in boutique "waterfront" (Darien River) 7 room hotel in the center of the fishing village town of Darien, Georgia. Near the working "shrump boats" trawlers and really cool commercial fishing industry. Very relaxing, tranquil, historic community. 🤫Shhh don't tell anyone, it will change ALL of the village character.

Reservation process was super easy and owner was very accommodating with a few last-minute requests. Location was great, so quiet and peaceful, walking distance of so many lovely local businesses and attractions. Entire facility was easy to access, clean, pleasant; room was very clean and comfortable. Staff ("Kat") with whom we interacted was very friendly, responsive, helpful. I cannot think of one thing I would change about my stay, and I will be back!! :)

I really enjoyed my stay here. The Inn is VERY clean, comfortable, tastefully decorated, and had all of the amenities you need. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The Inn is located within close proximity to the river, restaurants, local shops, etc. Will certainly stay here again.

This cozy get away is so much better than staying at a chain hotel. It is not that far off of 95, in a cute little historic town. All of the rooms lead out to a shared balcony with rocking chairs and a view of the river. You can walk to several restaurants. Our room was very comfortable and well appointed. We loved having the shared kitchen space with coffee, ice,....
We will definitely return!!

Very nice place! Very clean, great location. Staff is super nice. Will definitely stay here again!

Loved how they took this old warehouse and made an Inn out of it. Right in the downtown area of Darien. Little shops and restaurants within walking distance. Rooms were clean, self check in was awesome and was only about a 20 minute drive to St Simons east beach access. The back deck faces the river and Skippers Restaurant, has a nice view and lots of historical sites within walking distance. Cannot wait to go back!

So happy that we found this place, and happy to not support all the same budget hotels/motels off the highway. Dockside Inn was the right place, the right price, and so clean and quasi chic... and only thing between us and the water was the Skipper seafood restaurant, which unfortunately we didn't try. Wish we had gotten there earlier, and would have like to have checked out the wine bar down the block. And since breakfast was Sunday morning, we couldn't dine at the nearby coffee/breakfast spot with the voucher. Oh well. Next time we'll go for a few nights at least.

This place is so convenient! I parked right in front of lobby door and didn’t have to walk far to get to my room. Good restaurant/bar behind the inn.Coffee and ice machine right in lobby. Great sunset on docks! Bathroom could use updating but other than that I loved the room.

A great option for a overnight stay. Loved sitting on the deck with views of the river. The common area was lovely with a full kitchen, sitting area and coffee bar. The room was cute, clean and comfortable. Nice quiet area with restaurants within walking distance.

We enjoyed 2 nights and explored the town. Quaint area and plan to visit again!
