The rooms were clean and comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked and convenient for cooking. It seemed very pet friendly although we did not bring our dog. Loved the convenience to downtown restaurants, park and beautiful sunrises and sunsets, all within walking distance. Only downside was small shower and wellwater smell from washing machine.

I think this is the nicest host I have ever felt with. The cottage was perfect for our stay. The bicycles were a bonus , we got to ride around down town and my small Pom ride in the basket.

Ideal for Pets, tile floors, small area rugs that can be rolled up easily, just in case. Great location, walk to downtown. Quiet friendly/safe neighborhood. Plenty of parking right at the front door. Great waterfront park within walking distance along with a nice/marsh view restaurant. "Locals Dockside." Also, a new upscale Coffee Shop, "Kraken Coffee & Kitchen Co." located downtown, treat yourself!

About the host

Hosted by Tom Cyphers

Host profile image
Tom & Beverly Cyphers are seasoned VRBO property owners with what we feel is a very responsible and favorable track record supported by many 5 star traveler reviews. Before you consider this property we encourage you to visit our other VRBO properties in St. Marys listing numbers 659261 and 568599 and two other properties...one in LaGrange GA listing number 411610 and an additional property in Hayesville NC 1370991 We think the reviews speak volumes of our efforts to be great hosts for our wonderful guests.

We pride ourselves is being very clear as to the size, condition and amenities you will find when you arrive. And, we know that cleanliness is extremely important to folks renting VRBO properties. Like our other VRBO properties, we place as a number one priority that you will find our properties meet our rigid standards.

Finally, a VRBO is in effect a home. Accordingly, our VRBO units are well stocked with just about every thing you will need to make the unit 'your home away from home' throughout your stay.

Why they chose this property

- Pet Friendly. Wonderful courtyard.. Secure environment for you four-legged friend.
- In Historic District. Walk to the beautiful waterfront.and restaurants.
- Many many great reviews.
-

What makes this property unique

We think that one of the unique benefits is the large private gated courtyard. Simply, a place for you to relax and a safe and secure place if you have a four-legged friend that will be joining you.

Indeed we do consider pets. Our one time pet fee is $30.00 per pup. Pets are often not allowed at resorts of VRBO properties because of pet owners' disregard of rules. We are a pet owner who love to take our 'perfect dog, Clarky' with us on our travels. We allow dogs (Sorry, absolutely no cats as Owner has severe cat allergy) but require their owner to a adhere to a set of instructions to protect our property and thus allow other pet owners to enjoy their pets in our beautiful surroundings. When you send you initial inquiry, let us know the breed, age and weight of your dog please. Upon receipt of your inquiry, I will send Pet Instructions to you.
