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.

The home itself was absolutely beautiful—clean, well-decorated, and exactly as pictured. We truly enjoyed the space and the overall comfort during our stay.Unfortunately, our experience with the host significantly impacted our visit. Communication was difficult and, at times, felt intrusive. The property has a Ring doorbell camera, which we understand is common for security, but it seemed to be used to closely monitor our comings and goings. When our adult children stopped by to visit (they were not staying overnight), the host immediately sent an invoice for additional guests without reaching out to ask for clarification or discuss the situation.This approach felt more accusatory than hospitable and left us feeling uncomfortable and, honestly, a bit harassed during our stay. Clear and respectful communication would have made a big difference.While the home itself is lovely, I would encourage future guests to carefully review the host’s policies and be aware of how strictly they may be enforced.

The beautifully decorated cottage was conveniently located and the views were spectacular. The kitchen was well stocked for eating in, and the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed breakfast on the front porch and dinner on the back deck. The dock across the street and the walkability to St. Mary’s was a plus.

Excellent property. Very clean. Close to everything. The host was very responsive to all questions. The only thing I could see an issue for older folks would be that the bed height was very high. Really liked the seating area and tv in each bedroom. Would def stay again if in the area!!

Such a beautiful town home! The furnishings were top notch from the inviting decor, comfortable beds, down feather pillows, kitchen supplies, beach chairs and more! The townhome was so clean and fresh we didn’t want to leave! Perfect location to explore the quaint town of st. Mary’s and the history surrounding the area. Everyone, including the host, Amy, was so friendly and inviting. We enjoyed learning about this area as we explored all of the beautiful sites surrounding St. Mary’s island! Thank you, Amy!

Loved our stay in St. Marys. The townhouse was beautifully decorated and was a very good location. Walkable to the river to watch the sunset and to many different restaurants and the park. History walking track right out the back door of the townhouse.
