This newly constructed 3-bedroom cottage is styled in the classic, coastal low-country design that was popular throughout the South in the 1800s. Before air conditioning and electricity, the dogtrot design was created with large, open breezeways and several windows on all sides (don't worry, the A/C and heat work great!). This allowed homeowners to take advantage of the cross breezes which optimized airflow throughout the home. The breezeway was often the coolest spot in the house and where their canine companion was likely most often found and the inspiration for the name.
Enjoy this historically-styled accommodation with modern amenities and appliances! Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, with 2 bedrooms on one side and another bedroom/bathroom and kitchen + living room on the opposite. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to enjoy your time on the marsh.
POOL & POOL HOUSE!
Reserving the Dogtrot Cottage includes the use of the Emma's Driftwood Farm communal pool & screened-in pool house. Relax under dangling moss and take in the views of the marsh, or take a dip in the pool, heated for year-round enjoyment.

Our historic property is surrounded by stunning views and is the perfect place for your private getaways, corporate retreat, and special events. Our two deep-water docks and water-front dwellings right off the inter-coastal waterway sit on eighty-one acres of picturesque marshland brimming with aquatic life, soaring water fowl, and local flora. Emma's is the ideal place to call home while enjoying all the fly-fishing and inshore fishing, birding, crabbing, and boating that the Georgia Coast has to offer.
All five dwellings on the property have sweeping views of the marsh, creeks, and 200-year-old live oak forest. Our natural creek bluff is a perfect low impact spot to access the tidal waterways surrounding Sapelo Island and beyond.
