Its truly a luxury getaway, especially if you value privacy and nature. Very attentive and friendly hosts and top of the line finishes made this stay extra pleasant. The only suggestion for us (we cooked and ate in quite a bit) would be to add one more outdoor seating set for larger parties. The firepit was fabulous and the smore box well appreciated by all the kids! ##### anne j. Stayed 3 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Todd S. Mar 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Splendor on the Marsh Beautiful setting with very interesting and well thought out accommodations. We slept 3 couples in Hatcher and entertained twelve easily. Lots of areas for various sized groups to mingle and re-mingle plus spaces to get away on your own for a bit. The pool and pool area were very nice but a little chilly to enjoy except for a few 'polar bears'. Handsome boardwalks and docks let you get up close in the marsh on walks. The game pavilion was a plus as well. ##### Todd S. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ron S. Apr 11, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Exceptional Getaway Everything about this property is top-notch. We spoke with John ahead of our visit, and were also provided with a guest guide with tons of information about the area. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a wine and cheese board, along with complimentary branded cups and coozies and a hat. The farmhouse is absolutely stunning, and super clean. The property is beautiful, with huge mature oaks, amazing views, and a very nice pier and dock area. One very important aspect about this house is that EVERYTHING is included! Coffee, sugar, creamer, spices, toilet paper, paper towels, towels and linens, and the list goes on. For the fire pit, there was plenty of wood and starter. All pots and pans, knives, etc. Fishing gear for the dock. Other than groceries, you won't need to bring anything with you. We spoke with John once during the stay, and once at checkout. He was super helpful, friendly, and welcoming. Using the information in the guest guide, we called Tasteful Temptations Catering and ordered a Brunch, fruit tray, and Low Country Boil. There was enough food for multiple meals, and it was delicious! We visited Jekyl Island and St. Simons Island during our three night stay, which were great day-trips. Fishing from the dock was fun, although I only caught one catfish. Emma's Driftwood Farm is truly a hidden gem. Book it, and you won't regret it! ##### Ron S.

Everyone we encountered in town and on the property was very friendly. The farm would be a great place to host a large family event or wedding.

We encountered no issues and did not have to make the typical inquiries upon checking in - everything is thought of in advance and ready for guests. The house is beautifully restored and updated. The views are beautiful - serene and peaceful. We loved the birds and other wildlife - have never seen so many egrets at one time. We had 3 college aged sons with us and they enjoyed the trip. They golfed a different course on 3 days - many great choices within easy driving distance. We cooked dinner in the well equipped kitchen and there were nearby options for dining and takeout and a couple of good grocery stores. We hope to return. Have no suggestions for improvement - in addition to the view and generous space, the house is spotlessly clean with plentiful upscale linens. We loved the breezeway room. There is also a beautiful screened in porch with recliners for reading and the marsh side porch has rocking chairs and fans. We spent the early evening hours on the porch and saw an amazing sunrise each day over the marsh. We traveled to St Simons Island to the WWII Museum and Lighthouse one day and also saw the nearby Fort King George to learn more about the area's history. Laundry area and closet space are very updated and generous. Would hope to return. ##### Catherine M.

We stayed with 5 adults and 4 kids. The house and property was gorgeous and we didn’t want to live! It has everything you would need and very comfy beds and linens. We plan on returning when the pool house it done! ##### Teresa S. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ariel G.

The house was everything we’d hoped for and more. The surroundings were peaceful and relaxing. John was a fantastic host-warm, helpful and kind. We can’t say enough great things about this place. We’re thrilled to have found it. ##### Ariel G.

In an era that's inundated with photoshopped imagery, virtually any property can claim to be "luxury" online, without actually earning that label. This was most certainly NOT the case with Emma's Driftwood Farm...in fact, this property not only met the standards it outlined on VRBO, it far exceeded them! Our family has been fortunate to travel to numerous locations around the world, yet this little slice of Heaven in Southern Georgia stands strong as one of our favorite family destinations of all time. After a 6+ hour drive navigating Atlanta's crazy traffic, we were instantly mesmerized by the property's entrance; the private, gated entrance, covered by Spanish moss trees, led us down a windy path to the Hatcher House, our ultimate destination. We pulled in at sunset, and the views of the marsh literally took our breath away. Upon entering the home, everything we admired online came to life... only in an even better form. Little details that may be lost by other "luxury" rentals were not missed here; elegant hand soaps at every single sink; fluffy towels, high-end sheets, pillows and linens, night lights, high-end furnishings, a smores box, bug spray, sunscreen, fishing equipment, not to mention a handwritten note with property swag, a bottle of wine, a delicious charcuterie board, treats for our dogs, etc. The views were breathtaking and every moment was cherished by our family; from a sunset marsh cruise to s'mores in the fire pit; from day trips to Jekyll and St. Simons Island to family dinners in the house; from visits to the dock to see what landed in our crab traps to a touching phone call from John, the property manager, after we departed, every single aspect of our visit was first-class. We enjoyed the new local grocery store, chatting with locals, dining in Darien to support local restaurants and taking in the history of Fort King George in Darien. Only five star are allowed on VRBO but, if given the chance, this property deserves ten. After a handful of VRBO "flubs" with very hefty price tags, Emma's Driftwood Farm has restored our faith in online luxury rentals. The combination of their extraordinary attention to detail, coupled with their authentic Southern hospitality made this a vacation one we will cherish forever and ever! ##### Megan B.

We cannot say enough great things about this property. The views, the amenities, and the hospitality were above and beyond! We cannot wait to return soon. ##### Makayla C.

Sep 23, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely Perfect Our vacation stay was absolutely perfect, just a little too short! The property is beautiful and serene. My husband and I took my parents, our two (younger) children, and our dog for a quick, peaceful weekend getaway and I could not have asked for more. The house is finished with quality touches, the views leave nothing to be desired, and we were able to truly relax, which was the goal. I read all of the reviews (which were all five stars) so my expectations were set high but I can honestly say those reviews were 100% accurate and I was not even slightly disappointed. We'll definitely be booking another (longer) trip soon! ##### Brittany O. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Niki O.

The house itself is one of the most interesting places I've ever stayed. It's rustic and interesting, but clean, modern, and updated where it counts. The Master suite and bath are amazing and the view can't be beat. We came with 3 couples and our boat and found the accommodations to be above and beyond our expectations. Necessities are provided, as well as dock access, fishing tackle and beautifully maintained grounds. The property manager was friendly and helpful every step of the way. Highly recommended. ##### Niki O. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Connor B.

It is the perfect balance between rustic and luxury. The entire property is great. If you live on the southeast coast, you need to know about this place. ##### Connor B.
