Great location and easy to walk to restaurants and the ferry. We were excited to be there to visit Cumberland Island National Seashore, and happened to be there for the Seafood Festival!
The place was quaint and wonderful! Very bright and beautifully decorated and very clean! The extra thoughtfulness regarding amenities such as paper towels, etc were appreciated. The town is very pet friendly and a fun experience. Would highly recommend.
Loved this charming town! Great location. It was quiet, outdoor space was wonderful, clean, just very nice over all! No complaints at all! Would stay there again!!
This is a great place to stay. House was very clean. Great neighborhood, very quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay. We would stay here again.
My sister and I came from Tennessee for a weekend trip. Although our Cumberland Island plans were ruined by the government shutdown, we still had a great time here. St. Mary’s was so beautiful!
It's located in a nice residential area in the town of St Mary's. A Quiet neighborhood. It's shady and private since it's at the back portion of the 2 rentals. It's pet friendly and a perk is it's fenced in. A clean rental with everything you need. The outside sitting area is very nice, although we didn't use the grill there is a propane grill there along with an outdoor table and chairs. If you're looking for something quiet and quaint within town limits, blocks from St Mary's River look no further this is the perfect rental. The host is very accommodating.

The cottage was the perfect location to take walks to the small town of Historic St. Mary’s, dinner, coffee shop, church. Quiet and well equipped.
Perfect place for a peaceful weekend getaway. The cottage is well equipped with nice outdoor areas. We walked to the riverfront and enjoyed strolling through historic St. Mary's. We would definitely return.
The property is strategically located near the restaurants and historical downtown area.
We had an amazing stay and the property completely satisfied our needs. It was nice and quiet and extremely comfortable. Proximity was key for us and it met our needs.
This is our third stay at the Norris Cottage. As always everything is perfect. The owners are very attentive. Can't wait to come back. I even believe they fixed the weather for us it was beautiful.
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend in St. Mary’s. Cumberland Island is one of our favorite spots, and it was so nice to return to a hot shower and comfortable bed rather than having to hop in the car and drive back to Jax. The house was perfect for our needs- thank you!
Excellent place to stay in St Marys. In walking distance to cafes and waterfront. Studio B has nice fenced in courtyard for our Goldendoodle to play. Very clean and kitchen was well equipped!
We booked based off of location and it's walkable distance to the waterfront. We were met with an excellent and professional experience when our hot water heater went out. Excellent stay and if we return, we will be looking for this property. Thanks so much!
