Spencer House Inn

Many rooms to chose from. The best breakfast ever!!!!! Everything was very clean. Delightful attitudes from the owners. Thank you for everything.

Very well informed innkeepers. Quiet, clean, pretty room with king size bed. Delicious breakfast. Would return again if in the area.

Quiet spot with wonderful sitting areas inside and outdoors. The rooms are very attractive, with comfort in mind. Be close to the ferry that takes you to Cumberland Island, a paradise worth seeing for yourself. Enjoy a home cooked breakfast on real china before heading out with a wonderful packed lunch (at reasonable cost) for your chosen adventure. Mary has everything well arranged and only seeks to make your stay very memorable.

Great B&B, Mary and Mike are great hosts. Food was excellent, room very clean and well furnished. St. Marys is a quiet little town.

Excellent place to stay. Very helpful in planning events. Friendly and relaxed. Accommodating to our late arrival. Neat people.

I was always unsure about staying in a bed and breakfast. But Mary and Mike made my first expience a very pleasant and rememberable one. Mary was always available with excellent advice and to where to go and where to eat. Both Mary and Mike were were pleasant, as well as their staff, always interested and making sure your needs were met. I would recommend The Spencer House Inn to anyone. Great location right in the heart of St. Mary's. Always expect a very pleasant, peaceful and calming stay. Cathy and Bill Nelson.

Cathy Jacqmain ... Best Place I have stayed in a long time. Its like being at home. The staff was extremely helpful and acommadating in any request you had. The owners treated you like family. I will definately stay there again. I have told my colleages and friends about this inn.

I recently went for a birthday party on st. mary's. Spencer house is ideal. You can walk everywhere, restaurants and to the ferry on cumberland Island. Mary is delightful and the breakfasts were wonderful. she has everything --from dvd, books, lotions to make your stay special. The rooms are all different and can accomodate singles, couples, children, a group of girls. I would stay there again.

Mary and Mike are exceptional. They are extremely helpful and very attentive. They are excellent hosts and make every attempt to make your stay with them comfortable. Mary always offers her assistance before you ask, whether it's a bucket of ice to take to one of the porches during "refreshment" hour, or adjusting the AC to your individual comfort level. The breakfasts were superb! We will definitely be back!

What a servant spirit this place has for it's guests. Every detail no matter how small is not missed. They truly want you to have the best visit to St. Mary's and Cumberland Island ever. Be sure to get them to pack you a picnic lunch to take out to Cumberland Island or the park to enjoy during your stay. Our stay was amazing!

My wife & I, along with our son and his family stayed for two days with Mike & Mary over the 4th of July. We enjoyed the festival, parade and some great fireworks. Our granddaughters loved the big, old house and being able to watch the parade and fire works from the giant front porches. Breakfasts were outstanding and Mike's homemade toffee ice cream was a hit on a hot afternoon. It is a friendly place to stay and we met several interesting people. We really enjoyed out stay at Spencer House.

Lovely and well maintained B&B. Comfortable public rooms and great reading material. All bedrooms have chairs for reading. Hot cookies in the afternoon, and the hosts are attentive and gracious.

I could not be more pleased with every aspect of my stay. I rarely stay in B&Bs. This experience turned me around. The staff was friendly and helpful. Mary is just wonderful! The rooms were very comfortable. If you have the opportunity to visit St. Marys, Georgia, and need a place to stay, please consider the Spencer House. You will not be disappointed! Dr. J

You could not ask for more wonderful hosts and staff. Beautiful home and St. Mary's is a great place to visit.

We really enjoyed our stay at Spencer House. The inn is beautiful and meticulously maintained. The hosts and staff are friendly and courteous with a wealth of local knowledge and suggestions to help visitors plan and enjoy their day. Spencer House is definitely on the top of our favorites list and we'd recommend it to anyone visiting St. Marys! Kerry & Ginny Jones, Edgewater, FL

Met our expectations as the experience was exactly as described. Attention to detail in every corner with extremly helpful staff and dedicated owners. They made every single desire possible and nothing was a problem. Genuine, friendly and warm

We loved everything about our stay at the Spencer House Inn. The service, the rooms everything was outstanding. Their Staff was more than helpful and caring. They take pride in everything from the rooms to the breakfast. Everything was perfect. Just a wonderful place to stay!!! We will be staying again and have told our friends and family about the outstanding Spencer House Inn.

Mary, Mike and staff take excellent care of their guests. Spencer House is a delightful place to stay, with lovely charming rooms, delicious breakfasts, and helpful amenities like take-along lunches, helpful tourist advice, and an elevator for those who have trouble navigating stairs. An all-around great location for staying in St Mary's.

I arranged a one night thing at the Spencer House for my wife and I for her 26th birthday. Let me tell you all-in-all everything was very nice. We were warmly received and the hosts accomidated for my crazy requests (one of which was to take an entire shelf up in the guest refrigerator with my wives extravagant birthday cake that a friend made for her). A couple of suggestions 1) Offer some nice crackers with the fruit and cheese tray (they offer it as an extra to the room.) 2)Later check out and breakfast options 7 to 9 breakfast was a little early for our taste. 3) Widen out your board game selection the wife and I spent a couple hours, playing "trouble" because it was the ony choice we had. 4)More History of the building. Good things: the chocolate covered strawberries were awesome (extra to the room). Breakfast was delicious and there was a very wide selection. the soaps they offer with the room were very luxurious. Also there is an elevator which I very rarely have seen in bed and breakfast. Last if you forgot something like sunblock or shower gel (even acne cream) they keep a wide selection for your use on the table out side your room. Stay here if you get the chance!!

A really nice stay made better by exceptional service. Room was very nicely appointed as was the rest of the facility. Breakfast was very good. They made an excellent lunch for us to take to Cumberland Island, packed in a soft cooler. No doubt we will return when we have a chance.

Gorgeous house with attention to every detail. Food and snacks are wonderful, owners extremely helpful, great location for a trip to Cumberland Island.

The house was great, but really, the service was just super. Mary is the best host we can imagine - so sweet, so cheerful, and FULL of helpful information about the area and things to do. Mary helped us get the most out of our few days away from home. Great experience!

A warm and friendly staff eager to meet your needs about area sites and restaurants. Great location for Cumberland Island. Brealfasts excellent.

Mary and Mike are the kindest and most welcoming people you will ever encounter at a bed and breakfast. They treat you like royalty, catering to your every need no mater how large or small. The place is beautiful, located less than a block from restaurants, the dock, a park, and the gorgeous marsh on the river. I would recommend this bed and breakfast to absolutely anyone and suggest you give them a try. You will not be disappointed in the slightest. Check it out!

Great hosts, great food, great service to make our stay wonderful.

Great place for your quiet get away or shrimp feasting. Try in the early spring.

Mary and Mike were excellent hosts, very helpful , the breakfast was soooo good, and so was their coffee. Our room was cozy,compfy,and cean and very well equiped. We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay their again if we are in St Marys.

We enjoyed every aspect of our stay. We espected a very good stay and recieved one.

Southern Georgia is our favorite winter destination. This was our 5th trip to the GA Barrier Islands and our second to St. Marys. Both times we have stayed at the Spencer House and both times we have been treated to first class service and accommodations. Spencer House is a great jumping off place for a day trip or camping trip to Cumberland Island, which is one of the great parks in the National Park Service system. We are already planning another visit to the island and to Spencer House.

Stayed over New Years prior to seeing the Gator Bowl game in Jacksonville. Thought we'd try a BNB in St Mary's. Found it online and loved our stay. Very warm and welcoming place with hot breakfast prepared. Champagne and wine and pre dinner snack and post dinner drinks and home made cakes, since it was New Year's eve. Dinner at great litttle Italian Restaurant up the street Pauly's Cafe. Very intimate, only 9 tables. Had a ball and then saw our team lose the Gator Bowl

The staff was wonderful. The accommodations were very clean and just what I expected of a bed and breakfast. Their was plenty to eat at breakfast time and the owners were incredibly nice, making sure we had everything we needed.

As always, Mary and Mike and their staff are gracious and very effecient and make every stay a pleasure. I stay with them 20 or so nights per year.

Mary & Mike Neff and staff really pay attention to detail! Lovely. Room 301 is quite small. It would be best for a single person. Loved the 2nd floor veranda over Osborne Street and nestled in the trees.

Great place to stay and innkeepers are so extremely nice, making our stay outstanding! We will keep coming back. Besides - breakfast is wonderful.

I really enjoyed my stay. The home was beautiful and the service was wonderful!

Mary and Mike and their staff go out of their way to be accomodating and meet every need. They are friendly and helpful with lots of touring tips. We will definitely stay there again.

From a warm innkeeper welcome to a farewell hug, this property is the perfect stop for enjoying the area: quaint town, great seafood, Cumberland Island, birdwatching, wild horses, and more fresh air than you can inhale! But, you need never leave Spencer House: beautifully appointed guest rooms, large common areas, wonderful magazines and newspapers, delicious breakfast, and hot tea laced with quiet peace. Now, treat yourself!

Mary and Mike are outstanding innkeepers. They made us feel very comfortable, more like family than guests. The inn itself is well kept and beautifully decorated. There was hot breakfast as well as a wide variety of fruits, breads and cereals. Delicious! My husband and I had car problems while we were there and our hosts took us to and from the car repair shop. They took it all in stride and we were most grateful. They made our reservations and packed us lunch for our visit to Cumberland Island, a must see. We've nothing but praise and our highest recommendation for Spencer House Inn. We will return! Tim and Janet Ray

Mary, the owner, met us at the car with a royal greeting. Everything we could have wanted or needed was provided. It's a beautiful clean inn and very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious & graciously served. Thanks for listing them in your B&B book.

I HAVE OFTEN PASSED THE EXIT FOR ST. MARY'S, GEORGIA WITH CURIOSITY. LAST WEEK I DECIDED TO TAKE THE EXIT AND FOUND A QUAINT TOWN ON THE RIVER WITH ENOUGH SHOPPING TO FILL MY AFTERNOON. I STOPPED AT RIVERSIDE CAFE (OUTSIDE SEATING) TO HAVE A BEER AND ENJOY THE RIVER FRONT VIEW. I LATER HAD A GREAT DINNER AT LANG'S SEAFOOD RESTAURANT (ALSO ON THE RIVER). NOW BACK TO THE INN - THE ATTENDANT AT THE FRONT DESK WAS VERY INFORMATIVE ABOUT MY CHOICES OF ROOMS AND THE TOWN (I USUALLY TRAVEL ALONE AND AM ALWAYS VERY IMPRESSED WHEN I AM GREETED IN SUCH A FRIENDLY MANNER). I WAS SHOWN MY ROOM ON THE THIRD FLOOR AND THE ATTENDANT ALSO HELPED WITH MY LUGGAGE. THE ROOM HAD A COZY WARM FEELING AND WAS FURNISHED VERY TASTEFULLY AND WAS QUITE SUFFICIENT. I WAS MOST IMPRESSED WITH THE DARK FACECLOTH TO BE USED FOR MAKEUP REMOVAL, WHAT A GREAT IDEA. I TOOK THE LIBERTY OF PEEKING INTO SOME OTHER ROOMS THAT HAD NOT YET BEEN RENTED AND ALL SEEMED TO BE OF THE SAME GREAT QUALITY. AFTER A QUICK STROLL DOWNTOWN, I LATER MET THE OWNER WHO GREETED ME BY NAME (SHE HAD NOT ACTUALLY MET ME YET). I'M VERY IMPRESSED WHEN THAT HAPPENS. THE NEXT MORNING EVERYONE WAS SERVED A HOMEMADE BREAKFAST EGG CASSEROLE, FRUIT, HOMEBAKED BREADS (DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE CHIP BREAD), HOMEMADE GRANOLA - ALL OF WHICH HELPED EACH US START OUR DAY WITH A BIG SMILE ON OUR FACE AS WE TOOK OFF TO OTHER ADVENTURES. I DO LOOK FORWARD TO RETURNING SOME TIME SOON. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR A WONDERFUL ENDING TO A VACATION.

We just retunred from a 4-day trip to St. Mary and Cumberland Island, and our stay at Spencer House Inn was wonderful! Mary, the Innkeeper, empbodies the warm, friendly, and relaxed spirit of this quaint little town. Our room was extremely clean and contained everything we needed. Make time for long soaks in the clawfoot tubs and rocking on the porch rockers! We enjoyed breakfast and afternoon peach tea and sweets on the porch each day...a true southern experience! The warm peach and pecan bread pudding was a breakfast highlight. We left feeling relaxed and reconnected with the simpler things in life. Thanks Mary and Mike!

I recently stayed two nights at Spencer House Inn and will definitely stay again! Rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable. Breakfast both mornings was delicious. Lots of nice restaurants and cute shops within walking distance. Great place to stay - business or pleasure!

Mike & Mary Neff are the gold standard for innkeepers! The B&B was perfect and the trip was a total pleasure. We'll be back.

The Neffs know everyone in town & everyone in town is hospitable. Athough this was not our first stay at Spencer House, it was the first B&B we ever stayed at and is the reason we stay at others when we travl.

The bed-n-breakfast specialized in personal service! Details and special touches were everywhere, service and smiles spectacular!

We have stayed at the Spencer House 3 times now and every time I feel like we are seeing old friends!! Mary and Mike are very welcoming, friendly and very knowledgable of the area. The rooms are spacious, clean and full of comfortable beautiful antiques. The breakfasts are very good and we even bought a jar of Mike's home made granola to take home! They will even make you reservations for Cumberland Island National Seashore when you make your reservation at Spencer House. They know all the best places to eat and even the best 4 mile running route. We would highly recommend the Spencer House to anyone!!

The innkeeper was very friendly initially and had great suggestions for activities around town. At times, though, her style was a bit "nosy." She tried to change rates on us after sending a confirmation. When we emailed her original reservation back to her and stated we were only going to honor that, she conceeded but it was inappropriate for her to try to do that. I didn't appreciate the dishonesty. The food was outstanding. The location is great. It's a beautiful house.

I was warmly greeted by Mary, one of the innkeepers. She made sure that I was well taken care of throughout my stay and during my visit to Cumberland Island. I can't think of anything they could have done to make me feel more at home. If I return to the area I will gladly stay at Spencer House Inn again.
