Reviews of Cumberland Island National Seashore Museum
"Very informative and interesting exhibit. The history shown through the years captured the periods well. Matt was very enthusiastic in sharing further on the specifics of the exhibit and his knowledge of each portion of the museum helped paint the picture of Cumberland Islands past."
"Extremely limited hours of operation. Was not able to see museum due to being on island. 1:00-4:00pm is a tight window to make. Most pics shown here are of the island or surrounding area. Showing my few of the exterior. I would have enjoyed seeing it."
"This is our 3rd visit and we love it! It's small, but it's right in the middle of this historic area, which is where we always go. It's a super comfortable environment and you can learn and walk through at your own pace."
"Cumberland Island is a nice place to visit. Beautiful deserted beach and trails. We found lots of conches and 4 shark teeth. Enjoyed watching the seagulls and the Dungeness ruins. Not a whole of history but interesting nonetheless. I found a fallen grapefruit under a tree behind the grange house. I’ve wanted to visit the island for decades but never got the chance because a full day is needed. We had to report to the ferry at 8am and returned to the mainland at about 6pm. The ferry waited for a submarine to pass. That was neat to see. It was huge. It reminded me of the ironclad battleship CSS Virginia. I swam in the ocean on a November day. We saw wild horses, turkeys, pheasants and armadillos. A Real nice day. Be sure to bring your lunch. There is drinking water at some spots on the island but no food available."
"If you haven't been to this National Park, you should give it a try! You can only get there by boat with a round trip cost of ~ $35 pp. That doesn't include your standard NP entry fee (which I did not see anyone checking for at either end of the trip) of $10 pp. Other than a couple of restrooms and water bottle filling points, there are no amenities on the island. There are no trash cans... so you pack it in, you pack it out. To get the most out of this location you should have a reasonable fitness level. The route around the southern half of the island with some exploring will take about 4 hours to hike. It isn't likely you would be able to see the whole island in a single day trip. Bicycle rentals were not available when we were there, but for an additional $10 you can bring your own bike on the ferry. The terrain is mostly easy, but there is some sand to traverse which could be challenging. You will be delighted to see feral horses roaming about, along with the usual array of wildlife, like deer, turkey, wading birds, armadillos, and at the waterfront manatees and dolphins. Check out the website to find out more features of the island... there are too many to list in a review!"
