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.

Perfect rental to launch your Cumberland Island visit!

We greatly enjoyed staying in Amy's beautiful rental! She fully accommodated us on the busy fourth weekend; early check-in, reserved parking, fireworks view from her deck, and easy walking distance to the C.I. check in and ferry dock!

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!

Loved our stay!

Cumberland Cottage is one of the best places we have stayed, and we rent a lot of vacation rentals. From the moment we walked in it felt like home. Everything you need was available and it was very clean and comfortable. The location is within walking distance of the downtown area where you can eat, shop and relax. We cannot wait for out next visit to the area.

This is my second time at this home. It is an absolute perfect getaway, with easy access to a dock overlooking the river and a very short walk to town. Accommodations are luxurious, clean, and cozy. I hope to return for a Thursday!

Perfect getaway spot!

This cottage was as great as advertised. It was so beautifully decorated and perfectly appointed. We had everything we needed for a delightful stay: fluffy white towels; crisp, clean sheets; well supplied kitchen; several cozy indoor and outdoor spaces for relaxing. The cottage was conveniently located to all that St Mary’s offers and the hosts provided great information on all the restaurants and local happenings. I would definitely stay here again.
