Marvelous place

Mermaid Cove is an extraordinary cottage in the perfect location. Walking distance to everything downtown - restaurants, night life, riverfront, historic sites, etc. The cottage is remarkably decorated and those staying want for nothing. The owners have thought of everything. We will definitely come back.

The Mermaid Cove Vacation

Charming Mermaid Cove Escape My husband and I recently stayed at this delightful vacation rental in the quiet town of St. Mary's. Just a short walk to the restaurants and stores in town, this cozy 2-bedroom townhouse offered the perfect blend of relaxation and charm. The interior was tastefully decorated with a mermaid theme, featuring comfortable furnishings and all the amenities we needed for our week-long stay. The well-equipped kitchen allowed us to prepare meals easily, though we also enjoyed sampling the local restaurants in town. (Locals Dockside, Seagulls, and Riverside Cafe are a must!) The porch was perfect in the mornings for sipping coffee. This rental was a short walk to the riverwalk which was delightful in the evenings to watch the sunset. The area was ideal for our dogs, who loved exploring the space in the golf cart. St. Mary's itself is a hidden gem - a small, friendly community with a many wonderful restaurants and shops. We appreciated being away from the busier tourist areas while still having easy access to attractions. The drive to Amelia Island was approximately 35 minutes. Overall, this rental provided excellent value and a memorable getaway. We will definitely return again. 5/5 stars

We could not have asked for a nicer, spacious and cleaner house to stay in. The location was awesome. So close to everything! The river and ferry dock were across the street as well as the shops and downtown restaurants were within easy walking distance. The owners were so nice and accommodating! Could not have asked for a better place. We will be back!

We loved this rental. It was clean and the location could not have been any better. Less than a quarter of a mile from the water front park and all the restaurants and shops. The owners have thought of everything you’ll need and more. Beautifully decorated for that beach vibe. Bicycles, golf cart, sunscreen and so much more. It was a wonderful stay and will not hesitate to stay here again.

Cozy Cumberland

The unit was clean. bright and cozy. The layout was perfect for a family or two couples. Each upstairs bedroom was spacious and had its own bathroom with showers. You can walk to downtown and the water front but with the rental we enjoyed the owners golf cart. Why walk in the GA heat when you can ride in St. Mary’s style!?! We were in St. Mary’s to visit family and loved our stay!

Overall nice place to stay

Some of the floors were creaky in the master bedroom and the master bedroom dresser made noises as you walked across the floor. The pots in the cabinet were scratched up, so we had to ask for more, which Randy happily gave to us. On a positive note, Randy was very nice. He came to greet us and speak with us. The home had everything stocked with laundry essentials, toiletries, some grocery items, and a beautiful set of dishes in the cabinet. The bicycles provided were aged, but they served the purpose. I requested a picture of them before we arrived, but never received it. Overall, we were satisfied with our stay here. Juane was nice to offer us a deal on an additional two day stay, which made us happy.

Home away from home

We truly enjoyed our stay in the townhome in St. Marys. Wonderful location near downtown and quiet neighborhood. The home was roomy, clean, and comfy. The use of the bicycles and golf cart were an extra bonus. Loved sitting on the front porch listening to the birds or walking across the street to the marshwalk to see the sunsets. Randy and Juane are great landlords who were always available to help in any way. We look forward to our stay again in 2025!

The whole mermaid theme was was cute and I loved it all and was super helpful to have that half bath on the ground floor for his grandpa, because he doesn’t move as well so it was a great place and easy for him!
