About this property

Bright and airy waterfront getaway

Mermaids Foley has received some upgrades including a full kitchen with full size stove and refrigerator so you can come for a visit at the river and never have to go out to eat. My favorite feature of this home is that there is an enclosed porch on the front and has new sliding glass doors that open to the river so you have an amazing view and the wonderful breeze. Whether you want to open them all and enjoy the summer breeze or you want to watch the rain while being outside and staying dry. We love to watch sunrise and sunset on many occasions since its on a peninsula we often can watch them both.
Many people come to our property just to relax and getaway from it all. It's always fun to watch the Osprey babies learn to fly and fish or the geese learning to swim. There is also "Big Blue" one of our resident great blue herrings that have their babies here in the spring. Others come to the area to visit Calvert Cliffs to hunt for a great Megalodon sharks tooth. While others come to enjoy or compete in the races at Budds Creek Raceway. Others are visiting for an event at one of the wineries that are nearby. There are many wonderful places to visit in Southern Maryland and tons of waterways to explore. We are also within one hour of the nations capital and the many many events and museums to enjoy there while coming back to relax on the water when you're done.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Host profile image
I love to open my property to the public to give people a place to getaway from the daily grind and get back to nature and peace all while being a short drive from DC. I love to meet all the interesting people that come to visit and to hear their stories of what brought them here. This is a new property for me and I absolutely love living in such a magical place.

Why they chose this property

Quiet, peaceful, and in nature. While staying here you may see Bald Eagles, Falcons, Osprey, many kinds of ducks, and baby geese if you come during the right season. We have kayaks, and SUP available for rent to enjoy the two creeks nearby or the Patuxent River that all come together here on the peninsula.

What makes this property unique

One of the most unique things here is that because we are on a peninsula when the sun is rising you can also watch the moon and stars behind you and when the sun is setting you often aren't sure where because you are surrounded by a sunset. During the most recent eclipse I watched the moon eclipse and stars while also watching the amazing sunrise...it was truly surreal.
