    Anna W from Franfort, KT recommends this vacation rental

    The stay was great, the cottage was exactly as pictured and described on the web site. We had a wonderful time and will stay with Mermaid again next year.

    A full length mirror would be nice (Walmart, about $8) stuck to the inside of a closet door or something.

    There was intensive construction at the cottage next door, with workmen, nail guns, etc., so be warned that this is NOISY and some guests may complain.

    • Manager Responded on 11/15/2011

      We are so happy you enjoyed our Madelyn's on the Marsh. Thank you for the wonderful suggestion on the mirror and I have already asked our staff to take care of that. We are very sorry the work next door disturbed you and wish we had been given the heads up and could have spoke to them for you. Very happy to hear that did not overshadow your stay and we will see you again next year. You know you dont have to wait that long but if you need to just a little tip. Book now and take advantage of the 2011 rates as they may be going up for 2012. Call me and lets see how we can help!

    Stephanie B from Roswell, GA recommends this vacation rental

    We visited Tybee to run in the inaugural Savannah Rock-and-Roll marathon. The cottage was a perfect place to stay because we could cook our own meals but also visit the local restaurants and take the shuttle to the race. Recommend Huc-a-poos! We would definitely stay here again! The mermaids took great care of us and made sure we took advantage of the shuttle and had everything we needed. The coffee was a really nice touch that we appreciated.

    Yes, charming, cozy and clean, great location and the management staff is exceptionally helpful, thoughtful, welcoming and responsive. We have stayed in several Mermaid cottages over the years and each experience has been wonderful and given us such good memories. We will keep coming back.

    • Manager Responded on 10/26/2011

      Thank you so much for the kind words and we are so glad you had a great trip. We'll see you next time and let us know when we can help with that. Don't forget to make your 2012 reservations prior to the end of 2011 and avoid the rate increase.

    This was my first trip to Tybee Island, and I have already made reservations with Mermaid Cottages for next year. The cottage was beautifully decorated, immaculate and the neighborhood was very quiet. Mermaid Cottages staff are truly on the spot, professional
    and very friendly. I am very pleased with Mermaid Cottages and staff!

    My boyfriend & I really liked Madelyn's ~ it was cute & in a nice quiet neighborhood. We would suggest having bikes to get to the beach. Not an awful walk but a lot easier w/ bikes. The only thing we thought was missing in the cottage was a little radio.
    Other than that it has all the basics covered. (It even had vinegar & baking soda to help remedy the jellyfish stings my boyfriend unfortunately got zapped with.) Thank you Mermaids!

    Mermaid Cottages were great! The staff was the most helpful in all our questions and requests! The house was so cute and perfect for a few nights stay. My mom and two aunts stayed and couldn't say enough about it. The 3 ladies loved feeling away and off to themselves. They had a wonderful time at Madelyn's on the Marsh!!! THANKS, Emily

    We were on Tybee for the weekend for our son's beach wedding - which was absolutely beautiful. Loved the house - it's too cute. However, there are some additions that should be made to the bathroom to make it a little more accommodating - plugs for blow dryer, etc. and towel racks. Beds were very comfortable and loved the back porch

    Madelyn's on the Marsh is a perfect little cottage for some much needed R&R. The house was spotless, nicely decorated and was well stocked. They even had beach towels and local guide books, which came in handy. The location is on a quiet street away from the crowds but yet walkable to the beach, stores and restaurants. Can't wait to return soon.

    This was our second year in a Mermaid cottage, and my family loved it even more this year! We will be back next year, and I would recommend a Mermaid cottage to my friends (I already did this morning - my first day back at work).

    This cottage was perfect for my little family of four. The washer and dryer made it nice because we didn't have to pack as much clothing. It was convenient to restaurants and shops. It was a short 10 minuet walk from the beach as well. Very nice.
