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.

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.

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).

    We had a fantastic stay at Cozy Norris Cottage! The house was so cute, clean and comfortable. All the little touches in the house made us feel so welcomed and pampered. Enjoyed our day at Cumberland Island. Eileen was an excellent host and was very responsive. We all enjoyed our coffee sitting in the screened in porch. The squirrels and little lizards in the yard put on a show fir us! The Keurig coffeemaker and assorted coffees were convenient and easy. Thank you so much!!

    This was my second time staying at this property. I stayed with my husband and kids once, and this time with my girlfriends. The house is spacious, clean and well-stocked. Comfy beds, great kitchen, lovely screened porch. And it’s an easy walk to the St. Marys waterfront. The host is quick to respond and leaves easy, reasonable instructions for check-in and check-out. We will definitely stay here again!

    This was the best stay we have had in along time. Very peaceful and quiet. Great location and close to everything. The home was very clean and well stocked with a lot the the things you might forget. Communication was also excellent and balloons were even left for my wife’s birthday. A great touch. Will definitely be coming back.

    The cottage was immaculate when we arrived. The kitchen is very well stocked, including lots of choices of coffee. Pictures don’t do the home justice. It was much more lovely in person. The bikes were wonderful to go into town. There was such an attention to detail. The home is very secluded and it was a wonderful getaway.

    My husband and I visited St. Mary’s to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We arrived at the Norris Cottage, surprised to see that the property manager Eileen had left “Happy Anniversary” balloons for us..so very sweet and thoughtful of her. Eileen was very easy to contact with fast responses. The cottage was exactly as described and very clean. The cottage is nestled in a quiet little neighborhood. We truly enjoyed our stay in St. Mary’s at the Norris Cottage and are planning to visit again with our family.

    Everything was easy and not at all complicated for this property. Fully functional kitchen. We had family over for games and cooked with ease. All kitchen stuff was fully stocked. The attached screened porch was gabulous and even though it was hot during our stay, we enjoyed it in the evenings. You will love your stay here.
