We were very comfortable during our stay. We could see the owners have made a great deal of effort to make guests comfortable. The location was fantastic, we wish the weather had been so too, but the full day of our stay was very windy and cold.

This place is quaint and we loved it! Beautiful hardwood floors, a true old cabin that has been updated and well maintained. The AC worked fine although we really didn't need it much. The host was terrific. We will tell all our friends and family and we will stay again. It was exceptionally convenient to go to Cumberland Island for our tour - walked to the ferry.

This place is magical. We enjoyed our stay and fell in love with St. Mary’s. The house is very old. It’s Like going to your grandmas house. With it being old, comes old house issues. The toilet was finicky and the water pressure was meh. The house is super cozy and cute. The location is perfect.

Great place, best location

Everything was great but in particular the location across from the ferry was perfect. My young son and I were able to have an overnight adventure on the island while my sister and brother-in-law stayed and enjoyed St Mary after a day trip to the island with us.

Cute little place with a great location, the bikes are a big plus to do some exploring with. Restaurants in easy walking distance, and a free public boat ramp across the street that isn't the least bit crowded.
