Spend your days outdoors enjoying your own kayak, paddleboard, surf fishing rod or the beautiful weather and scenery. The beach is a stone’s throw away. The Mermaid Cottage is just a few houses from the breathtaking sunsets on the Delaware Bay. In just a couple of minutes, you'll be strolling on the beach, playing in the sand, splashing in the water or simply sunbathing as you listen to the peaceful sounds of the crashing waves. The bayside beach is your personal getaway that is not patrolled by lifeguards, no beach tags are needed, no curfews, no parking meters, no rip tides and the gentle waves are perfect for children. (NEW Beach cart to load the beach chairs, umbrella, swim noodles and beach buckets and cooler are included during your stay). If you want to exercise while checking out the views, go for a bike ride with one of the four beach cruisers that are provided.

After a day on the beach head back to the cottage and prepare a delicious meal. Grab some freshly caught seafood from the Lobster House and Jersey Fresh produce from one of Cape May County’s many local produce stands. Jersey tomatoes and silver queen corn are a must! The large backyard is the perfect place for a cookout using the new propane gas grill. You may want to choose from one of the many restaurants in our area, so be sure to look through our "Places to Sea" book for ideas and coupons.

THE LOCATION
The Mermaid Cottage is centrally located to many attractions. We are only a few minutes from Cape May (6 miles) and a short drive to Stone Harbor, Avalon and the Wildwoods. There are many local vineyards, distilleries and breweries including Cape May Brewery, which has a free tour and is only a few minutes away. Bravado Coffee Cafe, ice cream parlors and pizza only a couple of blocks away.

We were in town for our son's USCG boot camp graduation. This house was perfect for the long weekend - quiet area, clean house, close to base but far enough for relaxation, literally steps away from the beach and 15 minutes or less to every activity we wanted to do. The back screened in porch was our favorite place to eat and hang out. The host was exceptional in having everything ready for us and communicating with us. The towels and linens were very good and were provided so that was huge for us since we traveled so far and had limited time.

We had a wonderful stay at the Mermaid Cottage. The cottage was very clean and everything you need is provided. The host Kimberly is exceptional.Our first day was pretty rainy, but we did manage a walk to the beach during a misty break. It's very close. Then went for a wonderful dinner at the Lobster House (highly recommend).Day 2 we went on a Whale Watch. Didn't see any whales, but did see ALOT of dolphins and an osprey with a fish, so still a lot of fun.

We enjoyed our stay in the beautiful Mermaid Cottage. Beds were comfortable; house was impeccably clean; hot water was abundant; everything was in working order. We liked the safe, quiet, walkable neighborhood and closeness to the bay-side beach. Backyard is a suitable play area for children. House is beautifully decorated. There are amble extra pillows and bedding. Electrical outlets are reachable in all rooms. Kitchen is adequately stocked with pans and dishes. Bedrooms are very small with only tight walking space around two sides of the bed. Other rooms are comfortably sized. Owner communicated well and was easy to work with. Be aware that owner requires a 1500 deposit if you decline to buy damage insurance and VRBO does not return that deposit until two weeks after you vacate. All in all, we were very comfortable and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
