Shore birds, migrating song birds, hawks and owls, not to mention a wide array of mammals large and small.....The smell of salt marsh, coastal grasses glisten golden with each sunset and are transformed to bronze at sunrise.
Appropriate tides will lure you to kayaks that are here for your pleasure, or take the cottage bikes on a scenic ride to the waters edge....Recently added, a cooling outdoor shower at the observation/sun deck for our guests pleasure .A special treat for those who love bird watching. Oaks of Edens unspoiled coastal marshes and woodlands support countless migrating and native birds...
Now is the time to think about that fall trip, whether your a shutter bug, birder, hiker, kayaker, beach comber or just want to take advantage of our beautiful fall and winter weather we'd love to have you.
So come and find out what our guests already know, that Eden is a little slice of heaven on the Georgia coast....

We've made two separate visits to Eden Oaks during the past month. It is a truly special place and John and Sue made our visit so enjoyable with their attentiveness and hospitality. The setting is like something out of a storybook with huge, moss laden oak trees---and with access to the beautiful marsh scenery just a hundred feet away at the owner's back porch.. The location is superb for visiting all of the sites on the central Georgia Coast----Sapelo Island, Harris Neck NWR, Darien, Shellman Bluff, The Golden Isles, etc.--and Savannah is only an hour north. A one mile walk from the cottage down to Seabreeze island takes you from a dense, shady forest to a wide open coastal paradise in minutes----and the sunrise is spectacular. This is really a very special place and one of the best rentals in which we've ever stayed. P.S. Oh--- can't forget to mention Luna (their pooch) who wins the prize for her sweetness and her adorable blue eyes.Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, sightseeing.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the days spent at the cottage as well, the surrounding area. The cottage is very comfortable, clean and just enough space for 2 adults to share and have a most relaxed getaway ! Taking a bike ride on the road going further into the island is a very relaxing experience and easy riding for the novice. There are several local restraunts to enjoy great seafood or purchase and cook for yourself in the cottage. We will be going back again and would recommend it to people who are responsible and appreciate having a nice place at an affordable price. Both John and Sue are great hosts !Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My girlfriend and I stayed at this cabin the weekend after Thanksgiving to escape the craziness of family and Black Friday. We arrived at the cabin late at night and were greeted with fresh baked Chocolate Banana Bread, coffee, and a bag of organic greens grown there on the property. This cabin is only around 350-400sq ft but is perfectly laid out. We were incredibly comfortable and had an amazingly relaxing time during our stay in Darien. If you're looking to get away somewhere different and secluded this place is an absolute must. Take some time to experience Coastal Georgia and take in its incredible Geechee heritage..Recommended for: Romantic getaway, adventure seekers, sightseeing.

I booked this "mini vaca" as a birthday gift to my fiancee - who knew I needed it as much as he did!?! We arrived (after some helpful instructions from John) safely - from the moment we got there, we felt the stress fall off our shoulders. The chocolate banana nut bread, the sweet note, and the kindness we received from our hosts (and let's not forget the blue eyed Luna!) were more than enough to make the trip worth it. The property is immaculate, and had everything we needed and then some. The owners make sure that you are well taken care of, but aren't too intrusive. We really enjoyed our time (even with the thunderstorms and the rain!), and hope that we can come back really soon!! You won't regret coming here - it's so peaceful, and there's just enough to do to keep you entertained! P.S. Watch the short films John recommends - you won't be disappointed!Recommended for: Romantic getaway, sightseeing.

We spent a week at Oaks of Eden; what a little gem this place is! The cottage was private, set in among moss-covered oak trees, where it was tranquil and relaxing. We had a wonderful time eating at the local restaurants and, playing golf at Sapelo Hammock Golf Course. But best of all were the hosts: John and Sue. They catered to our every need but, were not intrusive. The cottage is clean and bright and happy! Not to mention we immensely enjoyed the fresh bread, coffee, lemons and organic lettuce too. Our vacation week started out great and ended up even better - GRAND - thanks to John and Sue, who started out as our hosts but, ended up being our friends! Later (as John would say...never say good-bye), Michele and DonRecommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, sightseeing.

If your looking to get away with your sweetheart or maybe just yourself, you need look no further then Oaks of Eden! My husband and I stay here for our anniversary recently and had the most wonderful time. The cottage was fresh, clean and well maintained. When we arrived Jiohn and Sue had plenty of coffee and their famous chocolate chip nut bread waiting just for us! Great for snuggle up with you honey and if you don't want to cook their are plenty of places to eat. John and Sue had bikes for our personal use and we enjoyed gliding along the marsh on well kept roads. If you are a true nature lover you need to experience Oaks of Eden. Bye the way, you need to stop by the " Purple Pickle" great place to grab a bite to eat. Quirky, fun interior and the best and most unique food I have had in a long time. The "Holy Moses" sandwich was to die for, but start out with the herbed pita chips and chicken buffalow dip I promise you won't leave this place hungry!! Thanks John and Sue for a great adventure and May the Lord Bless You Always...... We will be back again and again........Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, sightseeing.

There isn't really anything much I can add to the other stellar (and accurate) reviews. My husband and I booked this cottage based on ALL positive reviews, and weren't sure what we were heading in to. What we needed was quiet solitude to recoup and relax and the Oaks of Eden did not disappoint in the least. As others noted, we were greeted by John and given a proud master tour. The cottage was perfect as was the bread and fresh vegetables. We went reclusive, but that was our choice! There is plenty to see and do nearby. We thought we'd eat out a lot, but then close to eat in most of the time and enjoy the beaches during the day. John is attentive without being intrusive. He offered excellent information on places to go and things to see. I can't say enough about our experience at the Oaks of Eden. It certainly is a photographer's dream. The cottage is impeccably clean and well supplied. Perfect. Can I give it more than 5 stars? Thanks John and Sue for the rejuvenation we so needed!Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, sightseeing.

My husband and I have a vrbo rental ourselves but have never experienced being on the guest side of a stay. John and Sue set the bar for us. They took care of everything from the home-baked banana bread to the coffee and fresh Half & Half on hand for our first morning's breakfast. The best part of our week was the time spent getting to know our hosts and learning about the area from a local point of view. The house was extremely clean and well laid out with a very nice bathroom. Make sure to set time aside for a kayak paddle. Great, Great Fun. The location was perfect for exploring the low country. We spent one day in The Okeefenokee, another on Jekyll Island and then on up to Savannah. The house is very close to the Sapelo Island ferry. We are saving that day trip for next time!Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, adventure seekers, sightseeing.

I had to attend a conference in nearby Brunswick. I brought my wife Marcy not Mary :) along so that we could have some time together after work. My only regret about this stay was that I did not have the luxury of spending the entire day enjoying the serenity and comfort of this wonderful cottage. We had all the comforts of home, and the scenery was beautiful. We really got the opportunity to experience the true life and culture of coastal Georgia. Our wonderful host John and Sue were instrumental in making this happen. P.S. The alligator tail and flounder at Skippers were great.Recommended for: Romantic getaway, sightseeing.

I really can't add much more to what others have said except that if you want to get away from "it all" this is the place to do it. Great location, precious cottage with every amenity you can think of and then some, super host (Sue was out of town) and gorgeous surroundings. Probably the cleanest most well furnished rental we have ever stayed in with all the touches everyone else mentioned - coffee, 1/2 and 1/2 and yummy banana/chocolate bread. It is abundantly clear that this is a labor of love.Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2007
About the owner: My wife Susan and I completed the cottage in November of 2007. The cottage along with the main house were designed and built completely by us and our two sons over the past four years. My background is in engineering and industry, my life long passions are organic gardening, art, and music. Sue is a secretary; who apart from being my right hand and best friend, loves her porch overlooking the marsh with a good book, crafts, family and a good nap. We both are enjoying spoiling our guests more than we ever thought possible and hope to do so for many years to come............
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
Living here at Oaks of Eden is all about beauty and nature, peace and quiet are the norm and when we want more a short drive takes us were we need to be....You never know what you will see or find living in coastal Georgia......
