We loved this home. It is so peaceful and beautiful and is perfect for a large family like ours. Two couples and several teens and we had room to spread out. The landscaping around the backyard is gorgeous and it feels like you are secluded from the world. Can't wait to stay again. The master bath is amazing, and all the sitting areas are wonderful. Loved having such a large selection of books to read. Pictures don't do this home justice.

Reviewer Comments: Away from it all:Departing in January from the frozen coast of Maine, my husband and I were delighted to arrive to bird song, white sand beaches, clay courts, open golf courses, the occasional dinner al fresco, and no ice, power outages, or snow to shovel. We love Cumberland Cottage for the sweet neighborhood, the silence, the lack of traffic, the amazing bird song early and late, the spacious kitchen, master bath and bedroom, the easy access to the historic district, and the lovely pool that for me was swimmable all but the first month of January. We (I really...) covered up all the television sets except the one in the basement, got out our bikes, birding books, tennis racquets, golf clubs, books, sketch pads, recipe books, wine from home (why is there no good wine or bread south of Savannah?), beach towels and dug in for a delightful 3 months. We biked most everywhere and only got in the car to explore off island or grocery shop. It is a rare “off the beaten path” rental in the heart of an increasingly beaten path.

Yes, plenty of booze can be consumed on this annual weekend adventure, but the blur really comes from catching up with all of your FRIENDS that you only see once a year! Cumberland Cottage fit our group super well! The Master is amazing and is more than large enough to be shared with others who take longer times to get ready and need some extra mirror time! Anyway, we had five other houses full of the blur of friends that we visited with so Cumberland Cottage ended up being that nice quiet SOUTHSIDE TIP of the island that provided excellent quiet nights for needed rest after golfing, shopping, eating, and of course partying all at other Jekyll Island getaways! We will most definitely recommend this house to others and ourselves again for this GREAT weekend! GO DAWGS!

Quite neighborhood for our favorite, relaxing family vacation.

I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Love Jekyll Realty, but this house was a disappointment. There were roaches, spider webs in the kitchen, the furniture was dirty and the walls had marks all over.

We had a great time as always at Jekyll. The house wasn't clean when we arrived... there was trash left in the kitchen trash can, including a dirty diaper. There were a line of ants on the kitchen counter. Two shower units has clogged drains, and the one downstairs had a gecko swimming in the water after one of my showers. If you have a car you cherish, be sure to bring a car cover. Ours ended up covered in tree sap that is tough to get off. All in all, it was a great house... it just needed to be cleaned properly.

We really enjoyed the location. The pool on the property was great. There were roaches in the kitchen garbage can we brought it outside n didn't see anymore. The could spray the house. Other than that the stay was great. No complaints. The drain in the downstairs shower needs a snake. The water builds up in the bottom but these are minor things overall the place and our stay was great.

The pool puts it at the top of our list. Our 6 and 8 year old grandsons learned to swim in that pool last year and now think nothing of swimming in the deep end. There is enough gathering areas for different ages to do their own thing.

The space downstairs is great for entertaining or letting older teens have their own space. The beds are clean and comfortable. The renovations done to the master bathroom are incredible! This is our 4th stay at this cottage and will be our choice from now on! Quiet and secluded but easy access to everything on the island. 5 out of 5!

Aside from trash being strewn across the yard and raccoon defecate being on the back porch, we had a really good stay here. The backyard was very private, and the pool was awesome. There is definitely plenty of seating. This was our family's first vacation together - we have six boys and they've never been to a pool or to the beach before, so they had a ton of fun. The house wasn't really family-friendly - there was a lot of decor around at a young child's level and bi-folding closet doors that could potentially hurt little fingers. Also, three of the four deck bulbs were out and the bulb in the lamp behind the armchair by the kitchen fireplace was out as well. None of this made our trip worse, however. We still had a great time at this house. Oh, and there is hardly any space for dry foods; there isn't a pantry and most cabinets are full. We used a part of the counter for our overflow. All-in-all, we'd definitely book this house again.

My family and I love Cumberland Cottage and consider it 'our' vacation home on Jekyll. The character-filled house is lovely. The updated bathrooms and new outdoor furniture and plantings around the yard are fantastic. Thank you to the owners for sharing your wonderful home.

It's lovely to stay at the quieter end of the island at a house that has such charm and character. The house is well maintained with a recently updated master bathroom. The pool is private and wonderful. We will happily continue renting here as long as the owners will have us.

Reviewer Comments: As I was pulling on the Jekyll causeway I received a call from Jekyll realty that the owner did not want to leave the property for the weekend. ~12:00. Was offered a different property by the rental staff but it was not what we wanted. At 5:00pm owner was still at house with cleaning crew. We were finally able to settle in between 5:30 and 6:00.

Everything was great except for mosquitoes

We had a great stay at Cumberland Cottage. The house was so uniquely decorated. Our only complaint was the pool not being as clean as we’d hoped, but evidently the pool person came to start up the Polaris and it cleaned up. We were also a little surprised that we had to bring our own bed linens and towels, this makes it difficult for additional packing for a family of 4. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay!

Used VRBO but rental was manages by Jekyll Realty.

Nice house with plenty of room. Only problem was the owner decided to stay in the property the day we were supposed to check in. We were called when we were 30 min away and informed the house was no longer available. Jekyll reality searched for another property for us to stay in but this was the only one with a private pool. We were finally able to enter the property at 1pm on the 2nd day of our rental.

The house was big enough for our 3 families. Pool was great! Great location! Quiet and convenient to everything.

The house is beautiful and comfortable.

We stayed at the Cumberland Cottage for our stay this year. Like always, we had a great vacation. The house was a slight disappointment. It wasn't clean upon arrival. The stairs were dirty, there was dust all over the blinds, and there was a lot of trash under furniture. The entire downstairs part of the house desperately needs some TLC. The bedroom and bathroom were dirty with really scuffed up walls. The beds weren't very comfortable and we had to call a plumber on our first day due to a major drainage issue in the downstairs shower and kitchen sink. The house did have a lot of seating and the outdoors area with the pool was a big plus. There also was a lack of hanging bars and strips in all the bathrooms for towels and cosmetic bags. I would also like to recommend adding some form of hanging downstairs around the pool area for wet towels. Parts of the house downstairs are really showing its age. But overall, we had a great vacation.
