Great weekend
Was a great stay. Walking distance of the track. Will stay again.
Quaint. Very clean. Simply did not understand train after train tooting horns all night.
Train noise all night.
High way in front of cottage a racetrack until about 1:00 am.
Greatly enjoyed the Thai restaurant in town. Loved touring Okefenokee Swamp both daytime and sunset boat tours.
Visited Jekyll Island all one day, only an hour away.
Other than the noise factor it was a good trip.
a quaint cottage
We enjoyed our stay and it was what we expected as we had stayed in the cottage before. And it's called the Train Watcher's Cottage by design. the trains run night and day - which if you're not a train lover can be a bit disconcerting.
Good little place to stay!
Enjoyed our visit, thanks!
Wonderful host, charming cottage
Lucy was very helpful when we evacuated at the last minute before hurricane Irma. The cottage is very nicely decorated, equipped with all we could need. Thank you Lucy and Brittney!
Comfortable and homey
Everything you need & close enough to visit swamp & beach!
