This is our third stay at the Norris Cottage. As always everything is perfect. The owners are very attentive. Can't wait to come back. I even believe they fixed the weather for us it was beautiful.
We booked based off of location and it's walkable distance to the waterfront. We were met with an excellent and professional experience when our hot water heater went out. Excellent stay and if we return, we will be looking for this property. Thanks so much!
Perfect place for a peaceful weekend getaway. The cottage is well equipped with nice outdoor areas. We walked to the riverfront and enjoyed strolling through historic St. Mary's. We would definitely return.
Super cute place. Perfect location for what we needed. Love the little extra supplies and treats. I would recommend getting a bed that doesn't wiggle so much. It was hard for my husband and I to get sleep when one of us moved the whole bed wiggled. We would love to stay again! The host were wonderful about communicating and so easy to work with!
Really enjoyed our stay, unit was clean and comfortable. Location is very good, bicycles are provided but not used due to excessive temps. Amenities were good, washing machine a bit noisy, but worked well. A couple extra rolls of TP would have been good. Lovely little town, a list of local restaurants and merchants would be very helpful. Nice to have 2 parking spots, a note posted with the day trash/recycle goes to the curb would be good. Would gladly put barrels out for pickup, but didn't see message until the following day. We are not streaming savvy folks, and struggled to try to get live news and weather. Internet worked great.
charming cottage,close to historic St. Mary's. Lovely patio for relaxing with our Aussie,Bert. Cottage had every possible convenience. Quiet and comfortable comfortablelancomfortable
This unit, although small, was very adequate for our 2 month stay. It’s in the perfect location for walking to town and the waterfront, as well as exploring so many phenomenal bicycling routes and historical sights.This was our first time to St Mary’s and we hope to return some day.
This is a great place to stay. House was very clean. Great neighborhood, very quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay. We would stay here again.
We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable, close to the little town and the ferry over to Cumberland. The hosts were great. Thank you for your hospitality!
The property is strategically located near the restaurants and historical downtown area.
We had an amazing stay and the property completely satisfied our needs. It was nice and quiet and extremely comfortable. Proximity was key for us and it met our needs.
Definitely a great location. Owners were very communicative. Place is close to the main town. 3 minutes from the National Park Visitor Center.
Needs a tad of updating, we went to bar be cue and there was no gas. I can't give it half a star if not I would rate 4 1/2 stars.

The cottage was the perfect location to take walks to the small town of Historic St. Mary’s, dinner, coffee shop, church. Quiet and well equipped.
I love this little place!! It was perfect for my and my kids little weekend getaway. Next time i will bring my dog since there is a fully fenced back and side area. Thank you for letting us enjoy it!
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend in St. Mary’s. Cumberland Island is one of our favorite spots, and it was so nice to return to a hot shower and comfortable bed rather than having to hop in the car and drive back to Jax. The house was perfect for our needs- thank you!
We had a great time there.
Place was all we expected it to be.
Neat, clean and well maintained with supplies .
Manger Brittany ,was super great!!
Have stayed there before and will stay again.
Especially unit “B”. Love the privacy you have there.
Excellent place to stay in St Marys. In walking distance to cafes and waterfront. Studio B has nice fenced in courtyard for our Goldendoodle to play. Very clean and kitchen was well equipped!
My wife and I love this city. The people are incredibly nice and we always enjoy our time there in St Mary's. The Host takes care of us like family. This is our second stay in their home. So peaceful.
