The ferry to Cumberland Island boards within yards of the front of the property. Cumberland Island is the premier wild beach experience with 15 miles of undeveloped beach to explore. Wild horses and historic ruins add to the adventure. Perfect get-away for the author, artist, or to relieve the workday stress.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Very cute place with all amenities you could want! The entire place feels brand new and the two bedrooms were very nice to have. And, the location is perfect for taking the ferry and grabbing a bite to eat at the local restaurants. I highly recommend staying here (it is perfect for four adults/children)!

Quaint river view home

This is the 4th home we have rented in St Mary ‘s and each very nice and would probably rent again but this home was more cozy, quaint, well decorated and the view from the porch was the best of the homes we have rented.

Costal Georgia Gem

Cleanest property we’ve ever stayed at. Everything about the property was very accurately represented in the listing. If anything, understated. Great location to explore costal South Georgia. It was quiet and we felt very safe.

Adorable apartment

This property was so well taken care of and located in an extremely convenient part of Historic St. Mary's. Restaurants, the Cumberland Island ferry and the waterfront park are just a short walk away. We could watch the ferries come in and out from the front windows. The apartment is well appointed and very clean. Parking was no problem. We thought one jab with the apartment was going to be - not the apartment itself - but the restaurant/bar located behind it. Friday and Saturday night the volume on the music there was extremely loud and since we are not night people but early to bed early to rise people we were initially annoyed. BUT the music shut off at precisely 10pm each night and we able to get a good night's rest.
