My husband and I stayed at Open Gates in March. Nice location on a pretty square within walking distance to a couple of good restaurants. Jeff was a gracious host - and the breakfasts were yummy. There are a lots of books and games in the library - and a private back yard. We particularly enjoyed breakfast with the other... More

Just fabulous! Perfect location on the square in Darien surrounded by hundred year old live oak trees dripping with Spanish Moss. We've stayed in Darien before because it is convenient to I95 but far enough off the interstate for a night of restful tranquility. We hadn't seen this inn because it isn't on a main street and are grateful we... More

My wife and I are staying here as I type. We have stayed in both the Garden Room and the Island Room. This place is amazing! The staff and other guests have been top notch and the rooms are amazing. You are walking disance from some quality eats and some great photo opps such as waterfowl managment areas, shrimp boats... More

We have been staying in the Garden Room in October and enjoyed our first stay during our US vacation very much. Open Gates is very weel located between Savannah and the Golden Isles and that was why we have chosen this location as our base for some days. It is walking distance to a number of restaurants, so one can... More

My wife and I stayed here on a trip for our 29th anniversary in September 2012, where we visited both Cumberland and Sapelo Islands during our 3 night stay. We stayed in the Blue Bird room, which was very nice and comfortable. Jeff and Kelly were great hosts. It was like staying with friends, but you didn't feel like you... More

We looked forward to our stay at Open Gates, but very disappointed in the condition of the room (Garden Room in the Carriage House) and lack of cleanliness. When trying to find an outlet for the laptop, I was shocked to see the filth behind the bedside table and headboard - very thick dust/dirt, even covering the wires - clearly... More

We drove up in front of this adorable house with welcoming lights in all the windows & Jeff was inside waiting for us. When we were ready he helped us unload our luggage from the car. As it was around 3PM, we were looking for an afternoon snack. Jeff informed us about the "cookie lady" across the street, So we... More

My wife and I stay in a B and B at least 12 times a year. Open Gates is one of the best we have stayed in. The host, Kelly, was a pleasure to deal with. Our room was clean, the mattress very good. Kelly prepared an excellent FULL breakfast. We stayed in the Blue Room. We both have nothing... More

We stayed in the downstairs Garden room. Large and very nice. The hosts are very accommodating. There were two other couples there but when we reserved a week before they were empty so we had our choice of rooms. We stayed based on a Southern Living article recommendation.
