We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Twin Oaks Cottage! With historic St. Mary's and the Cumberland Island Ferry within walking distance, we would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone. Its location is central to visitors to Jekyll Island and Crooked River State Park, among many other nearby areas. The cottage is well-equipped, modern, cozy, and in a quiet neighborhood. Rooms are spacious. Open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, exquisite design.Wifi is excellent!Communication with the host was outstanding!It was a perfect getaway.
