About this property

Cozy Norris Cottage in downtown St. Marys~walk to Cumberland Is ferry~King bed

Cozy Norris Cottage is located in historic downtown St. Mary’s, just five blocks from the riverfront area with restaurants, shops, museums, and the ferry to Cumberland Island National Seashore all within walking distance.
Not planning a trip out to Cumberland? How about a day trip to Jekyll and St Simon Islands to the north? Or Amelia Island/Fernandina Beach, Jacksonville, or St. Augustine to the south? Don’t forget about the Okefenokee Swamp just an hour to our west.
And if you have a loved one stationed at Kings Bay, then this is the place to stay while visiting.


This cozy cottage is tucked away off the street down a picket fence lined driveway. You’ll be encouraged to sit awhile on the front porch with seating for two to relax and enjoy a morning coffee. The dining area has seating for five with a cute corner breakfast nook and chairs. The table can be expanded with a leaf tucked away inside. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you’ll need to cook great meals at home. There is a Keurig coffee maker with a variety of coffee pods, creamer, and sugar provided. The living room has a spacious sofa and loveseat, a Roku TV, and an electric fireplace to help you relax after a day exploring the area. The master bedroom has a comfortable king sized bed, a cozy reading chair, a Roku TV, and it’s own en-suite master bathroom with double vanity and walk-in shower. The second bedroom has full sized bunk beds and it’s own adjoining bathroom with tub shower combo. There is a CordaRoy brand bean bag in the corner of the second bedroom that can be used for extra seating in the living room but also unzips and contains a 60”x60” floor mattress suitable for a child up to about age 8 to sleep on. There is a third half bathroom and a small laundry closet with washer and dryer on either side of the small hallway. On the backside of the house off the kitchen is the screened porch with an outside dining table, a pair of rocking chairs, a pair of arm chairs, and string lights along the ceiling that are on a timer, all to help you enjoy our south Georgia climate to its fullest. A pair of adult cruiser bikes are there for you to use on your exploration of downtown St. Mary’s. ———————————Jacksonville International Airport is 31 miles (approximately 30-35 away minutes).

Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base is 7 miles away (10-15 minutes). Perfect if visiting a loved one stationed there.

My cleaner and I are very proud to provide a clean home for you to enjoy during your stay, and although I do have a pest control company spray the property regularly, please keep in mind this is the deep coastal south, and on occasion an ant, spider, roach, flying bug, or lizard may unfortunately find its way inside or to the back porch. No refunds will be given in such cases.

Norris St Cottage
We stayed at the Norris cottage for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The town of St Mary’s was charming. Cumberland Island on Okefenoke Swamp were really fun to visit. The cottage was just as advertised and perfect for us. It was clean, quiet, the kitchen was well stocked, bathrooms were nice and beds were comfortable. For the price, it exceeded our expectations.

St. Mary's cottage
The cottage was lovely...very nice furnishings and finishes. The host provided area information ahead of time. Everything we might need was thoughtfully provided...even a drawer of "in case you forgot something" items. We saw "wildlife" in the yard: cardinals, woodpeckers and blue jays. The cottage is in a quiet neighbohood but close to the shops and restaurants along the waterfront. The screened back porch would have been lovely to spend time on, had the weather not been unseasonably cold and rainy.

A Peaceful Cute Retreat
The Norris Cottage is a wonderful place to stay in Saint Mary's. The cottage is amazingly clean and well appointed. Eileen is a gracious host who responds quickly to any question or request. She has made sure the cottage has just about everything you would need and sometimes even things you may not have thought you would need to enjoy your stay in Saint Mary's. We believe you will enjoy the cottage as much as we did. We hope you will choose this as your temporary home when you visit the area.
