A Real Gem !!
“Some people look for a beautiful place, others make a place beautiful.” **************************************** The Pelican Perch definitely exceeded our expectations. The apartment was so cozy and comfortable that we felt at home immediately. The apt was spacious enough that we never felt cramped during our 6 week stay. We could not believe how quiet the neighbour is. Sitting outside on the comfortable chairs, reading a book, enjoying a glass of wine while listening to the birds and being surrounded by beautiful landscaping could not have been more relaxing. Wendy and Michael are wonderful hosts. They are so friendly and personable and made us feel very much at home. We will definitely be returning next year for a month. Anyone choosing the Pelican Perch will not be disappointed.

The apartment was spotless with everything that you need for a comfortable stay. Very quiet location and the grounds are a gardener's delight - very beautiful! We did not get to meet Mike and Wendy as they were called out of town, but we hope to stay again in the future as we continue to look for our retirement home. Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed!

Absolutely charming place to stay in a lovely town
Nothing but good things to say about the property and the hosts. Comfy, lovely beach-y decor, and convenient to downtown St Mary's which is such a nice town in its own right. We would definitely stay here again if we come back to the area.

This is a great place to stay. St Marys isn't for people looking for a place like South Beach Miami. It is a small slow paced town. If you are looking for a clean quiet place to stay in a historic town on the water you can't beat Pelican's Perch.

Fun weekend getaway!
We went to St. Mary’s to take the ferry over to Cumberland Island so we booked this adorable, super clean with all the extras cottage. Everything was perfect and they have a beautiful garden area you can enjoy too as well as a work out center. My husband states he thought it was one of the best and cleanest places we’ve ever stayed in. Thank you Wendy for the use of this beautiful property as well as golf cart .

Beautiful serene place!
Pelican’s Perch was the perfect spot for me and my husband during our trip to St. Mary’s to visit our new granddaughter. The apartment was clean, cozy, had everything we needed and then some! And the flowers and trees surrounding the home were so beautiful. Will definitely stay again when we go back to visit!

Cute Beachy Cottage
Truly exceeded our expectations. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the attention to detail in the decor created a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The checkin/checkout process of the property was outstanding, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience throughout the stay. Access to St. Mary’s was a breeze with the ability to use the golf cart! The crisp hotel style sheets added an extra touch of comfort. This charming cottage was a perfect stay.
