In anticipation of a long awaited vacation to our favorite happy place we contacted a rental company we had used multiple times previously and did NOT even get a call back. We reached out to Mermaid Cottages. MC was wonderful to work with—eager to work with our time frame and budget. They found a perfect cottage for us! A lovely, quaint, and charming cottage with all of the everyday conveniences. Great communication from the start keeping us in the loop—they even called us to say the house was ready prior to the normal check-in! Their attention to detail is beyond measure…they left a thoughtful, handwritten note and gift in celebration of a recent retirement! MC was quick to respond to a very small glitch (coffee maker would not work)—a new one was delivered to the house quickly! We are already planning our next stay and will DEFINITELY have MC find the perfect cottage for us again. MC treated us like family and made our stay feel like home! We LOVE Mermaid Cottages! – Guest Experience At Rose’s Folie

In fact, we’ve welcomed many different types of pets over the years, so always call or text us, tell us about your pet, and we’ll be happy to help recommend just the right cottage for you! And please know, official service animals are always welcome at any of our cottages, any time of year. We love them, too!
Ms. Opal’s Cottage lights up for Mermaid Cottages, the first decorated cottage of the season. Each year, our holiday guests are invited to choose from our collection of cottages decorated for Christmas. Our Mermaids work with our cottage owners to get the trees decorated and to set out their special holiday decorations. We want you to have a Merry Mermaid Christmas, so enjoy this recap of Ms. Opal’s garland, tinsel, and lights.
