Our family has stayed at Mermaid Cottage many years. Two years ago, it was not available, so our family stayed at a very modern, really big house in a similar location. Funny, though, everyone (4 adults) preferred Mermaid Cottage. It was perfect for what we needed. It was, and should be, a Beach House!!! Exactly what we loved!

Amazing
We all loved this property and were so sad to leave. Perfect location with the porch looking over the nature preserve, quick walk to ice cream and Harris Teeter, 2 min walk to the beach and an amazing pool to cool down in.

Great location, could be a bit cleaner
This was our second stay, we came back for the proximity to the beach, neighborhood and pool, all of which are excellent for the price. We were disappointed this year with the cleanliness. When we arrived, the floor was sandy, the dishwasher wasn’t emptied, one of the beds had sand in it, and one of the trash bins wasn’t emptied.

Amazing cottage!
The Mermaid Cottage was so much better than we had anticipated re: the poor reviews. The house was perfect for our group of 2 families with 4 under 8yo between us, and it was as clean as any of our other beach stays other than some sunscreen on a patio table.
The layout was 2 bdrms & bath in one section of the first floor (along with kitchen, dining area, and sitting area in the other section) and then 2 bedrooms and a bath upstairs. There's also the typical outdoor shower.
The decks were in great shape with plenty of chairs and great views including an ocean view from the top floor balcony (though it is off of a bedroom).
We don't go to OBX to sit inside, so the small size and well loved decor were welcome touches. When were weren't at the beach, we were in the smallish but clean pool. There were a ton of games, books, and even colored pencils and a coloring book.
The location can't be beat for the price. It didn't feel like an effort at all to walk to the beach a few times a day. The beach itself was never crowded and since it's private, we saw many of the same folks all week.
Overall one of my best beach stays and will try to book again next time we're in OBX.

So Close to Beach & Ocean View from Top Balcony
We enjoyed the very close proximity to the beach, the pool, 3 tv’s each with Apple TV devices, outside shower, grill area, like-new washer and dryer, and availability of high-quality beach chairs and 3 coolers. Some things that disappointed us: there was a strong urine odor in the first floor master closet and a similar but lesser smell in the bunk bedroom next to that closet; perhaps from the pack-and-play or bedding that was in that closet? It seemed that some areas in the house could use a deep cleaning, but overall, we enjoyed our stay. We appreciated the phone calls from the owners whenever we texted with questions.

Quaint cottage by the sea
Cottage was perfect for a family getaway. It isn't anything fancy but certainly just right for family with kids. Owner was quick to respond to all correspondences and also worked with me as I booked unusual days. The VRBO app didn't correct me to do a Saturday to Saturday rental and she worked with what I booked even though it threw off the cleaners and the rental schedule. The cleaners however I would say are subpar. I did find their info on a paper under a side table on the third day. Had I seen it the first day I'd have contacted them. I do know the owner would have made arrangements if Id have complained to her but after a 12 hour drive I didn't want to pack back up and sleep somewhere else because the cleaners did a garbage job. Besides the cleaners sucking it was a really nice time. Kids lived in the pool and the beach was a hop, skip and a jump away. The neighborhood was also mostly quiet and we appreciated that as well.

New favorite place
The house is a bit outdated but it was nicely located on a quiet street. It was close to shopping and dining, which was a big plus for us. The pool was nice to have and the water was clean.

Very enjoyable stay
The house was as described, nice ocean breezes and views from all decks, including ocean view from second floor. The house was ideal for our small family, extremely convenient to the beach, supermarkets and restaurants, and the private pool was a great option. We did not have any issues with the cleanliness as described in other reviews. Check in and check out was very easy. Overall, it was a great vacation and we would stay here again.

Good place
If you don’t need new and fancy this is your place! It has all the amenities you need for a great week at the beach. Lots of kitchen stuff and tons of beach stuff and pool stuff. Very comfortable and so close to the beach. We will definitely stay here again
