St. Mary's is a quaint little town and this place matched that quaintness. It's a reasonably short walk into town, and it had everything we needed for our 3 night stay.
We enjoyed our visit! The only thing we thought lacking was no outside place to sit and enjoy…… no chairs, table…… so we ventured off property to enjoy the outside…….
My husband and I enjoyed our little getaway at the Lil’ Pink House. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We ventured to the downtown area of St Mary’s, which was beautiful at sunset. This was an amazing vacation rental.
The Pink Cottage served us well as a couple spending just 2 nights in order to explore the area and Fernandina Beach. The location is on a lovely canopied street within easy walking distance to the downtown area of St. Mary’s. We didn't cook during our stay but all looked handy. Bring your own coffee is you are a coffee drinker.
Thanks for a nice stay! We would recommend!
This sweet cottage, nestled in a quiet neighborhood, was comfortable and homey. Only a short walk to downtown St Mary’s, and a quick drive to surrounding areas. This property was clean and easy to access, nice bedding and good quality towels. We will definitely stay again. We consider this a St Mary’s gem. We enjoyed the oaks umbrella over our sitting area. Ac worked great!!! Southern charm at its finest with the furnishings, I especially loved the bed headboard.
Overall a great place to stay. It is heated and cooled with a minisplit-hardly ever felt hot air coming out of minisplit. TV has green lines that appear randomly. Very quiet and very close to the downtown area of St Marys,
Our experience in the Lil Pink House exceeded all my expectations! The house was adorable and equipped with everything we needed to be comfortable, and was within easy walking distance to the waterfront and downtown. We were warmly greeted upon arrival, and all communication was responsive, warm and helpful. They even offered to mail back to me an item I left behind after checking out. St. Marys itself was a delight - good restaurants, Saturday market, beautiful sunsets, friendly folks.
The overall property was pretty good. We enjoyed the comfy bed and it was super quiet. A few suggestions: Please spray the perimeter and inside of house for bugs. Upon arrival, there was two roaches and during our stay flying ants, tree beetles and a centipede inside. The open electrical in ceiling needs a cover. Also there is wood rot on the left and right side of the bottom on the front door allowing bugs to come in.Bathroom exhaust is not working. There also needs to be better lighting such as path lights outside and a sign at the entry of the driveway would be helpful for guests arriving at night. The ceiling fan blades need to be replaced which is an easy fix. The ac needs to be cleaned. It’s very dusty.I love the cottage feel with the wood floors and kitchen was nicely done.
The house is quaint and very inviting. We enjoyed our stay there very much and would certainly stay there again.

Furniture to put clothes had to cleared of misc items which I put under the bed to make room for clothes Cleaning lady as uncooperative about bed and linen changing and her dog bit me when I needed to talk to her about replacing the tvVery unclean heating unit behind the armoire Can opener doesn’t turn to work properly No laundry facilities to care for us
Loved my stay at the Lil Pink House! Communication was good and check-in was a breeze. Parking directly in front of the cottage. The location was super convenient to the St. Mary's waterfront and the Cumberland Island ferry, and the property has several beautiful old oaks with Spanish moss hanging from their branches. The cottage itself was much roomier than I expected, and I loved the eclectic mix of repurposed furniture/decor pieces with functional new items. The kitchen area had everything you need to cook meals there if that's your thing, but there were also some fun, good places to grab a meal not far away.I recommend the Lil Pink house, and look forward to staying again when I'm in the area.
Cute place, reasonable price, but could use a few things
The place was ok and comfortable. More care could be done in the front of the property, it had 2 chairs but a bit rough. The photo showing the river as a 'view from the property' is false and should be removed.
We were there for the weekend from Savannah. We loved the location and it was a super cute, clean little house that's perfect for a couple. We were both very happy with our stay. Would definitely book again. Thanks!
We were there 2 nights to celebrate our anniversary. Clean, nice and very affordable. Very close to downtown shops, restaurants and ferry to Cumberland island.
Unfortunately, it didn’t start well. The power went out about an hour after check in and didn’t come back on unti 1:30 a.m. Tree fell on power line, not the fault of the owner. We had to go and find a cooler and flashlights. It was very uncomfortable in the house. The neighbor did check on us around 8:00 pm. The little house is cute on the inside but the entry way is in need of a lot of TLC. It definitely took away from the charm of the house. A weed eater, blower, and some flowers would really turn this place around. All in all, we enjoyed our stay even with power interruption.
This was our 2nd time staying at the Lil’ Oink House. We love the location as it is central to the beaches. St.Mary’s is a quaint little town with friendly folks.
It was a very clean place with all ammenities available. Easy to locate and very peaceful. I would recommend staying there....perfect for 1 or 2 people.
