Plantation-style residential resort amid 22,000 scenic Lowcountry acres, 25 minutes from Savannah. Fifty distinctive cottages, trimmed by wonderful screened porches, are set beneath trees overlooking a river and lake. Request one of the odd-numbered cottages (up to #35) for a more scenic tidal frontage, or an even grander Cottage Suite with a separate living area. A formal restaurant and small bar-lounge occupy the main lodge. Amenities include a lagoon-side spa, two fitness centers, several outdoor pools, tennis complex and strikingly designed Jack Nicklaus signature golf course complemented by a timbered clubhouse. Canoeing, kayaking, guided nature walks and saltwater/freshwater fishing add to the pleasure of a stay, as do the nostalgic village green with its bookstore/bakery and cozy café serving brick-oven breads.
River Cottage, from $645; Cottage Suite, from $730.
Rates include Wi-Fi, bicycles, kayaks, lawn and racquet club, fitness center access and valet parking.
