My wife and I were very impressed with our stay at the Southern Bell. The place was much nicer than we expected and a great location. Cleanliness was exceptional and with all the amenities we never went to the store for coffee, cream, toiletries, etc…. We visited 3 of the 4 major islands in the area during our long weekend and would highly recommend the Southern Bell for exploring the local area.

This was my 2nd stay at the property. The location has amazing views and is so convenient. The local food is amazing. The unit provides a great living space. I utilized the laundry area. The owner is fantastic to work with.

Views of river for sunrise and sunset, walking distance to everything including Cumberland Island Ferry, dining, parks, and museums. Very well appointed with plenty of fluffy towels, soft sheets, and comfy beds. Well equipped kitchen. Lovely decor celebrating the building’s history without being overdone. Beautiful reclaimed heart of pine for floors, doors, and some furniture items. Very relaxing!

We had a great time in this charming apartment! I really enjoyed sitting outside on the patio overlooking the water. The town is small but not lacking in things to do and see. This place is perfect for you if you want a quiet and peaceful getaway!

Great town, the accommodation was more than the pictures do justice and lots to do. Toured the town of St Mary's and went to Cumberland Island a must see. Food, location scenery off the charts, here we come again. A 10++

We have stayed here a few times. It is becoming our home away from home while we get ready to build in the area. We love the place and Linda is the best property owner we have encountered. Nothing is left undone, she has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable.

We had an amazing time at Southern Bell. It was spotlessly clean and really easy to settle into for our week-long stay. We spent a lot of time out on the deck enjoying the river view. We loved all of the windows, especially the views when there were storms.

We had a wonderful visit with only one hiccup! The electronic door lock didn't like us! Once we got in touch with the owner we were set to have a great visit. She even called to check in on us! The place was very clean and a great location! We walked to the ferry, to eat, and to shop. The neighbors were very friendly as always and we felt like we were at home. We think the bed is a full size and not a queen, it was very small but we're used to a king size. We had a great stay!

Literally right on the water. Fully stocked kitchen to cook your meals and enjoy while you watch the boats come and go from the dining room table or porch. This is such a comfortable place. The restaurants, bars, and attractions make this perfect for wandering around and enjoying the slow pace of a small coastal town. Impossible to feel anything but relaxed when I'm here.

This was the first VRBO rental we have had that was better in every way than the pictures online showed. (If ya know, ya know!)
We loved this place. We were in town for the Cumberland Island experience. This rental is located across the street from the ferry dock.
A very clean place with all the amenities you could need. We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the evenings and listening to live music from the nearby bar and grills.My wife and I agreed we will definitely be back.

We met our adult daughter and boyfriend and really enjoyed the area and location. Right across from where the ferry leaves for Cumberland Island and beautiful views of the waterfront. The apartment was nicely appointed and pretty, and a short walk to several bars and eateries. A very relaxing place to stay.

This is a great little apartment by the riverfront in St. Marys, a perfect location for experiencing the little town and especially for a day trip or more to Cumberland Island, located right across from where the ferry leaves.
Very clean and had everything we needed for our short stay, we would definitely stay here again.

This property couldn't have been more perfect! It was picturesque and spotless. It had everything to make you feel at home and nice having two bathrooms. We spent two days going to Cumberland Island and it was wonderful to return home to our apartment. Very convenient to the Ferry landing. Would definitely love to stay here again!

We chose this rental for its history and location. Perfect spot to access points north and south! We went up to Jekyll Island and down to Jacksonville Beach. Clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. Loved the old phones :) we could t use the outside deck due to storms but it would have been lovely spot for morning coffee!

Great stay in St. Marys!
Southern Bell is in a great location and is spotlessly clean. Outside you can hear music from the Tiki bar nearby, but it is very quiet inside. We will stay here again .

Best place to stay when visiting Cumberland!
We loved our stay at the “Southern Bell”! Our drive took all day in 100 degree weather and it was such a joy to come “home” to absolutely everything we needed! The apartment is very well decorated and spotlessly clean. Our main focus for our vacation was to visit Cumberland Island for 3 of the days (we weren’t interested in camping in the heat) and this little spot is located directly across from the ferry. We hardly used our car once we were settled in. The restaurants in St Mary’s are great, we never had a bad meal. Live music plays at the restaurant nearby the Southern Bell, so join them on Friday and Saturday night for a good time! We had a flawless experience with booking, checking in/out, and simply enjoying ourselves all week. We will be back!

Great stay!
Beautiful apartment. We loved if. My favorite was the floors and doors! No complaints from us at all. Our little babies did great in their travel cribs, brought our sound machine and let them watch our phones since there's no TV, but it was not a prob for us!! Thank you Linda!

My husband, son and I spent 4 wonderful nights at this super cute rental. Linda was great to work with and made sure everything was perfect for our stay. There is a nice supply of all the the items you made need to start your vacation off right. The location is superb! It is walking distance to several restaurants and activities. St. Mary’s is such a quaint little town along the river. Also, be sure to visit Cumberland Island - it will not disappoint!
We would not hesitate to return again one day!! Loved the town and the rental!!

We loved this spot! It was perfect for our needs. We have a 6-year-old and a 4-year-old and the property manager went above and beyond to make sure the children's bedroom was secure (she installed an extra lock on the emergency exit). We loved the experience of being right on the harbor and seeing the boats across the way, and being able to walk to the ferry and the park. It felt very special and very "St. Mary's." We did have family staying at another property with a big fenced yard and a dock, and we spent a lot of time over there; I think if we were planning to stay all day at this VRBO it might have been challenging with small children, since there isn't a large space to play. But since most days we were either at Cumberland Island or on the go to other activities, this was the perfect landing pad for resting at night and quiet mornings looking out over the harbor from the balcony. The live music from the nearby restaurant would have been a problem for us but it consistently ended at 10pm every night - perfect! I will say that the queen bed that my husband and I slept in was a tad soft for me, but that could be just my preference. Otherwise it was an exceptionally comfortable experience! The apartment was very clean and well-provisioned.
