Amazing Beach Getaway

The Island Dog Cottage was the perfect group stay for 8 people. Amazing screened-in patios and had everything you need, from beach chairs to cooking supplies. Short walk to the beach. Great location and Mermaid Cottages were always available.

We’ve rented from Mermaid Cottages for over 14+ years and we’ve loved every cottage that we’ve rented. The Mermaids make you feel like family. Can’t wait to plan our next Tybee trip.

Great Family Getaway!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay! The home was decorated in cute beachy decor and offered plenty of seating both inside and out—perfect for a large family. We especially loved the screened-in porch for relaxing in the evenings. The separate bedroom and half bath on the ground floor were ideal for our daughter and son-in-law, giving them some extra privacy. It’s just a short walk to the beach, and we really appreciated the outdoor shower for rinsing off. The fenced area was perfect for our fur babies. Communication with management was excellent—friendly and responsive.

Spring Break

We love the house and the accommodations for our dogs. There was plenty of room and it was a great house. I will advise anyone to be super clear they understand the Tybee island rules about parking, dogs and golf carts. They love to give tickets. After a long drawn out process of getting it registered, we were given no instruction or indication of the designated Crossing points. Turns out if you have a golf cart, you can’t park it at this house because here is no access point to that side of the road for crossing and it leads to a 300 fine. We love Tybee and the house was amazing. Just find someone with “correct” information that works for Tybee and get a clear understanding of “all the ways” they can write tickets.
Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Apr 2025
We are so glad you loved the cottage! Yes there are very strict rules on the golf carts since it is a US Highway. The rental cart places won't rent to anyone staying beach side of Butler. Wherever inspected your personal cart probably just made sure you were legal and did not ask where you were staying. We hope to see you again! the Mermaids
