Such a charming place to spend the week!

This house was the perfect place for our family to gather for a week— plenty of space for everyone while still feeling cozy. The views were amazing, and we loved starting and ending our day on the deck watching the ocean!

AMAZING

Absolutely one of the most incredible rentals I’ve had the pleasure to stay at. The property was gorgeous, with a stunning view off the back deck. Amazing sunset. Just a few of the features: nice hot tub, kayaks, bicycles, gas fireplace (indoor and outdoor), keurig w/ coffee and creamers, and more. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Come enjoy the Mermaid Cove!
