Cumberland Queen Cottage

Our family owns the ferry service to Cumberland Island. The cottage pays tribute to the Ferrys that have taken passengers to the Island for the past 30 years. The Cumberland Queen was the first ferry. The current ferrys are The Cumberland Princess, The Cumberland Lady and the Cumberland Queen II. We have two original wheel house windows from the Cumberland Queen that were salvaged after it sank during hurricane Irma in 2017. You will have a two block walk to board the Cumberland Queen II on your visit to beautiful Cumberland Island. You will have views of the St. Marys River from your front porch and bedroom 2. The back patio overlooks the History Walking Park. Many restaurants and shops are within walking distance from the cottage.

This townhome has recently been renovated with new appliances and furniture. Each bedroom has a full bath and smart TV. There is a half bath downstairs. Fully stocked kitchen with new appliances and washer and dryer. Dining room accommodates 4-6, also dining on the patio. Large smart TV in living room, free high speed internet. Seating on front porch with river views.

Whether you are visiting to go to Cumberland Island or to enjoy our historic downtown, we welcome you to St. Marys, GA and The Cumberland Queen Cottage.

My wife & I stayed here for our Anniversary. It was a comfortable stay with everything we needed. The house was a great location to restaurants, stores, & the downtown waterfront of St. Mary's. This was a perfect place for us to visit St. Mary's and our day trip to Cumberland Island.We would highly recommend this property to others. It was a memorable weekend & relaxing stay.

Perfect Getaway

This was a wonderfully located gem situated in the heart of downtown St. Mary's. a beautiful, clean space overlooks the marsh, perfect scenery for your morning coffee or sunset-watching cocktail. We were able to visit Fernandina Beach, Tybee, Cumberland Island all within an hour. Very gracious host.

Amazing all around

This is truly one of the best places we have ever rented. The owner is amazing, great communication and very prompt with responses. The townhouse was very clean, very well stocked and the special touches in the home were all very welcoming and made us feel at home. The location is perfect, within walking distance of everything in St Mary’s. Honestly cannot say enough amazing things.

Perfect location, Kind hosts, and comfortable home

My adult children and i headed to our home town to visit family. The location meant we rarely used our car as everything was in walking distance. The place was immaculate and the beds were super comfortable. Check in/out super easy and we felt quite at home. Will definitely be back!

Everything except plug in scent diffuser great

Great location and very well kept house. We had to unplug the 2 plug-in scent diffusers because we're highly sensitive to artificial fragrances. Suggest owner alert guests.
