The Cannonball House
This home is so beautiful. Modern amenities in the bathrooms and kitchen but the preserved charm of an historic house!!! Beautiful decor throughout the house!!! The wrap around front porch was just lovely to sit on!! The first day there was an AC issue upstairs but the hosts were there immediately to remedy the problem. It’s located on a quiet street but close enough to walk to the downtown area to explore! I only live 30 miles from this location but will be booking again for future events that bring me to St Mary’s!!!

Who doesn’t love a little history?
We found the place where the cannonball hit! We had help from the owner of course but nonetheless it was a great topic of conversation! My daughter lives nearby and I dearly love St. Mary’s so why not make a vacation of it and get to visit her and her family right? Each bedroom has its own bathroom which is so convenient! The girls ages 4 and 5 had a blast checking out all the hiding places and the adults enjoyed the wide open spaces for conversations while the cooking was going on. Convenient to Cottle and Gunn (a must visit ) and everything else this house was awesome for our annual trip! We enjoyed our time at the Cannonball House!

Birthday Trip
The Cannonball House was just perfect for our group. It was a perfect location. We were comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting on the porch at night. The property manager was easy to work with and answered all of our questions promptly. We will definitely stay in this beautiful home when we visit St. Mary's again.

Beautiful historic property. We loved how it was decorated. You could feel the history but at the same time it was nicely updated and very comfortable. It had everything we needed and it was very close to the ferry and downtown.

Experience history in St. Mary’s
We chose to stay in the historical part of St. Mary’s. Our first visit there. Staying at the Cannon Ball house was extra special. It clearly is an older historic house- as is the entire historic area- but very clean, well air conditioned with fans in every room, comfortable beds.. plenty of room.

Southern Charm
The home is located in a quaint neighborhood. I felt safe walking in the evening. Easy walk to the river and a small park. The home is historic and spacious. We had plenty of room to allow everyone to have space. I found the bed to be comfortable. Plenty of dishes for cooking and extra items needed such as the occasional band aid. Quick response to any questions.

Perfect Couples Weekend
We all love historic homes so were very excited to find "The Cannonball House" to ring in New Years 2023. We wanted to attend the Fernandina Beach "Shrimp Drop" but didn't want to overpay for inferior hotel rooms there. We wanted easy access to Amelia Island and St Simons in a quaint area. St Marys definitely fit the bill. The house was perfectly situated within walking distance to the beautiful downtown area. The Cumberland Island Ferry was so close and we enjoyed a lovely day there visiting the National Seashore, the ruins and the feral horses. We highly recommend this home and the area for your next getaway.
