Perfection!

I recently stayed at this property with my two best friends. We were there over a weekend to visit Cumberland Island. We all agreed that it may be the best rental we've ever stayed. The property is so well decorated and stocked. The rooms were all so comfortable and clean. There has been so much attention to detail put into this place. I would love to come back and stay again some time. We could not get enough of it! We all kept saying how much we loved it. Everything was walking distance. St. Marys is a true hidden gem.

A Hidden Gem!

This place was awesome. St. Marys does not have a lot to offer however, this place is amazing because it is affordable, super clean! I mean you could see where someone vacuumed and the smell when walking in the door just was amazingly fresh. Never stayed somewhere so clean! It was a short walk to town and to the Cumberland ferry. Would recommend this for couples looking for a quiet weekend getaway. My 8 month pregnant wife and I stayed here for a weekend trip and we would definitely come back in the future. The host left us a sweet note on arrival telling us how thankful she was to have us and recommended some things to do. This would be a great basecamp place for a couple or a two couples who want to go and see things within a hundred miles. Such a gem! Highly recommend locals seafood all you can eat shrimp from 2-4pm!!!

Great Property, Great Location, Great Town!!!

The house is lovely and inviting! The neighborhood was quiet for out stay. The park directly behind the back yard was nice. Pier directly across the street was beautiful in the evening. The town was nice and quaint. Things seem to shut down around 9pm this was not an issue for us. Of course Cumberland Island is beautiful and full of history. We were there on a holiday weekend so we did not have time to see all the local museums like we wanted, we this was expected. The location of this property is great and allows for a quick walk to town so no need to get in the car and drive, when you want to get dinner or just spend a little time exploring. Not a review for the Local Dockside, but great food!

Loved our stay!

Cumberland Cottage is one of the best places we have stayed, and we rent a lot of vacation rentals. From the moment we walked in it felt like home. Everything you need was available and it was very clean and comfortable. The location is within walking distance of the downtown area where you can eat, shop and relax. We cannot wait for out next visit to the area.
