Camellia Cove was just what I needed. It’s the most relaxing and peaceful cottage I have ever stayed in. All the amenities and little added touches were just spot on. If you ever need to just enjoy nature and be at peace this is your place to stay on beautiful Magnolia River. Can’t wait to go back. Thank you Teresa, for hosting your adorable cottage.

Camellia Cove offers a charming, quiet, and restful sanctuary that is sure to delight any guest! This renovated historic home boasts river views, river access, and space for boat parking. Surrounded by nature, the property features a balcony, firepit with Adirondack chairs, hot tub, screened-in patios, outdoor shower, gas grill, outdoor shower and sink with both hot and cold water! Proximity to bike trails, a boat launch, and bird sanctuary, as well as the Weeks Bay National Estuarine Reserve, makes it ideal for nature enthusiasts.

Nestled beside the cold, spring-fed Magnolia River, Camellia Cove is situated in the only US town where postal service is by boat. Majestic oaks draped with Spanish moss and vibrant southern flowers, including heirloom camellias, magnolias, and dogwoods, paint a picturesque setting straight out of a Fannie Flagg novel.

This place was just what my soul needed! I had been looking forward to seeing my best friend but got way more than I expected. This cozy place was perfect in every way! As a busy mama to two little girls, sleeping in (on the most divine sheets EVER!!), and enjoying coffee on the porch in the mornings, was the best mental health weekend I could have dreamed up. 

All the small, thoughtful touches were perfect. You can tell that this place is more than just a rental property. I cannot wait to bring my family here.

Thank you for the weekend my heart and soul needed!
