Vacation Rental Description

Relax at the Rose ....

"There is something ineffably serene about this house. It is a visual
version of a Vivaldi Concerto or Handel’s Water Music. I sit and
absorb the soothing impact of pale walls against honeyed woodwork, the
abundance of flowing space and the unusual sense of tranquility that
one feels here. My eye delights in the detail of the solid
mantel-pieces that rest above the eight fireplaces, the perfectly
chosen artwork that is redolent of a long-ago, somehow simpler, time
and the light…always the glorious abundance of light that fills the
house." ...St Marys Magazine .

The home has five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a formal dining room
and comfortable living room. While the home has been modernized
(central heating and air conditioning, modern kitchen, and more), one
can still appreciate the original details of hardwood floors, large
windows, dramatically high ceilings and two porches - all surrounded
by a half acre of camellias, azaleas, roses, magnolia, oak, camphor,
cedar and persimmon trees, scuppernong grapes and a variety of other
lush plantings.

Saint Marys ....
For those of you who are not familiar with St. Marys, allow me to
acquaint you with this wonderful small town. Located on the banks of
the St. Marys River, the town is the second oldest in the U.S,
following St. Augustine, Florida. It is in the Southeast-most corner
of Georgia, nestled just west of Cumberland Island and east of Highway
I-95. Jacksonville International Airport is only 30 minutes away. Once
in St. Marys however, it feels a world away. Everyone greets you with
a smile, and strangers wave hello. St. Marys was named The Best Small
Town in America by Money Magazine, and is the site of the 2004 HGTV
Dream Home. It was also recently highlighted in Southern Living Magazine.

The town is small and quiet with moss draped oaks and a charming
atmosphere. The house is within easy walking distance of shops and
restaurants. Bikes and golf carts are available to rent. A kayak
outfitter offers a variety of trips for all levels of experience. Or
try your hand at fishing from the pier or in the river and tidal area.
The Rose-Lovell House is just two blocks from the Cumberland Island
Ferry and public boat ramp. It is a 45-minute ferry ride to what the
Travel Channel has ordained as "America’s Most Beautiful Wilderness
Beach". Stroll the trails and beaches and catch a glimpse of wild
horses, dolphins, white tailed deer, armadillos, wild turkeys and a
variety of other birds.

Tired of the beach? Head 45 minutes west to the Okeefenokee National
Wildlife Refuge. Take the guided boat tour and learn about the swamp
inhabitants and its fragile ecosystem, or rent a canoe or kayak and
see some of the wildlife up close.
