Stayed Jun 12, 2026We had a wonderful time at Mermaid cottage! It was clean, comfortable, and accommodating. The walk to the beach was short and the beach was small, quiet and nice. The host provides a lot of nice beach and outdoor items like chairs, bikes, and nets.

Stayed Jun 3, 2026My family and I hold the Mermaid Cottage near and dear to our hearts. It was a great find the first year we came to visit Cape May and since then we've returned annually! The kids talk about it and we all arrive each year upon check-in and feel like we're seeing an old friend. The proximity to the beach is walkable and wonderful. We usually visit during horseshoe crab mating season and are in awe at watching the natural cycle of these incredible sea creatures. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, friendly and charming. The bikes in the shed are an awesome addition to our stay and I usually take a morning bike ride by myself at least one of the mornings during our stay and include a stop at Bravado Coffee to pick up pastries for the family before rolling back home. It's an easy drive into Cape May proper as well as entering/exiting the Cape. We love Mermaid Cottage and plan to return for years to come!

Stayed Sep 25, 2025We 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.

Stayed Sep 16, 2025We 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.

Stayed Sep 5, 2025We 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.

The screened in porch was wonderful for eating together. Owners were extremely communicative and helpful. Relaxing neighborhood away from the chaos of downtown Cape May. I’ll stay again in the future.

Stayed Jul 27, 2025The Mermaid Cottage has a wonderful beach vibe , it is the perfect beach getaway. And the cleanest house I ever rented!!! Just a short walk from beach to house we could go back and forth with the little ones with ease. The beds are so comfortable we all had a good nights sleep. The host provided many yard games to play after a day on the beach . The yard was a perfect space to hang out after a day at the beach! And there were bikes in great shape for a morning bike ride around the neighborhood. All around a perfect place to kick back and put your toes in the sand!

Stayed Apr 24, 2025We stayed at the Mermaid Cottage in April for an early season birding trip. The location worked well for hitting all the birding hotspots in the area with a bonus of only being a few houses away from the beach. The neighborhood was quiet. The cottage was very clean and plenty of space for our party of 3 adults. The back porch is a lovely space for dinners. The host was fabulous answering all our questions in a timely manner. I highly recommend this cottage. Kim, Montpelier, VT

Stayed Sep 15, 2024This was a lovely cottage. We enjoyed staying there and looking for all the mermaids. We would recommend it highly to another small group. Enjoyed Stone Harbor and Cape May. Had a great meal locally at Jake's! And we would definitely recommend the ice cream place on Bay Shore Drive! Thanks for the opportunity to share your delightful home in this quiet neighborhood!

Stayed Sep 13, 2024This house is the perfect location, about a 2 minute walk to the bay. The house is small and cozy and perfect for a small family or two couples! We enjoyed the convenience items/linens provided. My only complaint was a few hairs in the bathtub and sand spurs in the carpets when we arrived. The sand spurs were difficult to remove and we were traveling with a baby so that was a stressor. Otherwise our stay was amazing and Kimberly was very helpful and quick with communication! We would stay again
