This has us centrally located, close to the beach, restaurants, shops, the YMCA, the new Dowdy Park, and a mile from the Nags Head Fishing Pier.
We are two short blocks away from the beach. It's a 3 minute walk with direct beach access at either end of the street.
We are a block from the grocery store as well, it doesn't get much better!
Sheets and towels are provided free of charge. You will find clean sheets along with 6 bath towel packages in the bedrooms. NOTE~~ beds will not be made, cleaning company has opted to have all linens in sealed plastic to ensure cleanliness.
We are always updating and upgrading. We have modern amenities but still retain the homey "cottage by the sea" feel.
The kitchen is well equipped. It has plenty of dishes, glassware, pots and pans, and small appliances. Dishwashing liquid, dishwashing pods, hand soap, trash bags, & coffee filters are stocked for you. The breakfast nook seats 6, and is the perfect place for cozy family meals, game playing and enjoying time together.
The main living area is tastefully decorated, with new furniture, and custom touches and artwork throughout. We have a 55" smart TV. Those with a Netflix account can log in to watch your favorite shows.
Bedroom 1, first floor, Queen bed, TV and nice size closet. It connects to the first floor bathroom.
Bedroom 2, second floor, (bunk room) 2 singles, great for the kids, they love the bunk beds. The bunk room connects to a Jack and Jill bath.
Bedroom 3, second floor, Queen bed, has a TV & a large closet. There's also a sitting nook attached, perfect for curling up with a good book. This bedroom also connects to the Jack and Jill bath.
The loft area is added space for the kids to enjoy board games, or if you need a quiet space to simply chill out, or work (if you must). We have Spectrum TV internet service.
We have a mud room on the ground floor, with a full-sized washer and dryer. Also in the mud room, you'll find a closet with beach equipment for our guests. We have beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, corn hole, some sand toys and other fun games. Lastly there's a wagon to haul it all to the beach.
Outside, you'll find two decks, one is covered and shady for relaxing after a day in the sun, or if you are a sun worshiper, the upper deck is complete with table and chairs for al fresco dining. Our back yard is spacious, flat, and fenced in for security and added privacy. It's perfect for cornhole, playing horseshoes, bocce ball or whatever outdoor games your family may enjoy.
Lastly, we have a keyless entry, nice outdoor shower, a swing, a gas grill, and picnic table.
****Please make sure you read and understand all aspects of our rental agreement and house rules. Specifically, our occupancy limit and penalties for noncompliance, hurricane policy, and the "no animals allowed" rule. We are true animal lovers, but sadly we have family members that are highly allergic. There are many pet friendly homes along the Outer Banks. We would be more than happy to recommend some to you so you can bring your furry family member along without any worries.
Thanks for understanding. Any questions? Feel free to ask! We are happy to help.
After being guests ourselves for many years, we strive to make this house our, and your home away from home. We have put a lot of thought and care into making it a nice, clean, organized, safe environment for everyone. After all, it's about family and friends, spending time together with the ones you love, and making memories that last a lifetime!!

We absolutely loved our stay at Three Mermaids! This was our third time at the property and it was just as wonderful as the first two. Cindy is great to work with! The property is not only in the perfect location, but the house amenities are just what we needed for our family, which includes three kids under 10. I cannot recommend enough!

What a great home! We have stayed at many VRBO rentals from Corolla to Avon and this is one of the cleanest homes we have ever rented. It is beautifully decorated, the spaces were just right for our two couple adventure, and the organization of items (from kitchen to bath) was something we haven’t seen before. We all said we would stay here again and recommend this home without hesitation. If we had one wish, it would be for a bit of water at the house - hot tub, small wade pool or something. I understand the expense of that isn’t practical and it wouldn’t stop us from staying here again. You won’t be disappointed staying here!! Thank you for a GREAT stay!

The Three Mermaids Cottage exceeded all expectations for our first visit to the Outer Banks. We were so impressed with the cleanliness and coziness. It was so fun to hang out there. Lots of fun games and activities were provided. The walk to and from the beach was easy and convenient, and we of course loved the outdoor shower! We appreciated being able to use the beach equipment, too! Jim and Cindy were incredibly helpful with communications about the weather and things do to in the area, as well as accommodating us when we thought we may need to cancel/reschedule. We are super glad we were able to make the trip after all, and would absolutely stay there again!
