About this property

Cottage on the Green A - Historic North End Duplex - Near Beach

COTTAGE ON THE GREEN "A' AND "B"
A Historic Gem, Beautifully Renewed! Once built as quarters for soldiers during the Spanish-American War, this home is actually a duplex and shines as a vibrant coastal retreat. Nestled just behind Officer’s Row and beside another Mermaid Cottages treasure, the Enlisted Men’s Mess Hall/Screened Inn duplex, it offers guests a rare blend of history and modern comfort. Lovingly restored from top to bottom, the home is bright, colorful, and a true showcase of beach cottage renovation and décor, where every detail celebrates its unique past while embracing fresh, inviting style

COTTAGE ON THE GREEN A
Step into sunshine the moment you arrive — the bright yellow and turquoise exterior instantly sets the tone for a carefree beach getaway. Inside, original heart-of-pine floors, soaring ceilings, and vintage accents create a welcoming blend of charm and character.

The open floor plan seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas. Furnished with beach-inspired slipcovered seating, a flatscreen TV, a cozy vintage dining nook, and a well-equipped kitchen accented by charming lighting.

Twin Bedroom #1, just off the living area, offers two twin beds dressed in crisp white linens and bright coastal décor.
Queen Bedroom #2, located off the kitchen, features a queen bed, an ensuite bath with a classic claw-foot tub/shower combination, and a flat screen smart TV. Both bedrooms are enhanced with ceiling fans, airy white bedding, and abundant natural light.

Just off the kitchen, a convenient half bath awaits. The reclaimed weathered wood, salvaged from the cottage’s pre-renovation days, infuses the space with a warm, vintage vibe that feels authentically coastal.

The screen door off the kitchen opens to a roomy screened porch, furnished with comfortable seating for everyone to gather. Adding to the porch’s charm is a generous swing bed, upholstered in cheerful fabrics and layered with vibrant pillows. It’s a timeless invitation to linger, whether with morning coffee or evening cocktails.

Throughout the duplex, unique art from local creators and carefully curated décor reflect a perfect marriage of past and present. Every detail contributes to a space that feels truly special.

An outdoor shower with hot and cold water, accessible from both indoors and out, offers a refreshing way to wash away the day’s seaside adventures.

FOR FAMILIES OR GROUPS OF FRIENDS, THESE 2 DUPLEXES WOULD BE A PERFECT SPACE! RENT BOTH AND HAVE 4 BEDROOMS AND 2 FULL AND 2 HALF BATHS! 2 LIVING SPACES, 2 KITCHENS, 2 SCREENED PORCHES, AND A WONDERFUL SLEEPING PORCH! WOULD SLEEP 8 (NOT INCLUDING THE SLEEPING PORCH!) PLENTY OF SPACE TO ACCOMMODATE MULTI-FAMILY OR GROUP OF FRIENDS TRAVELING TOGETHER!

COMPLIMENTARY OFF-STREET PARKING FOR 2 VEHICLES.

cozy cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I enjoyed my stay very much. The cottage was close to perfect and had everything I needed. I'd like to come back when the weather is warmer and sit on the pretty screened porch! The north beach neighborhood is great - i stayed next door at Enlisted Men's Mess Hall a few summers ago. Very quiet, compared to the south end, and not far from the beach. Would recommend for couples and small families.

Cottage on the Green "A" Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage was bright and clean. We really enjoyed the colors and the comfortable feel of the furnishings, art, and other details. Thank you for the great service from Mermaid Carol and a huge kudos to housekeeping! My husband and I enjoyed our stay so much, that we extended! The only thing I changed was to pull a little stool over near the tub so I had a place to put my book and glass of wine...

A Charming Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved this cottage! It was so clean, comfortable, and beautiful - or should I say charming! It was on the North side of the island which seemed to be older restored homes, which I loved... We enjoyed eating ice cream at Sweetie Pie's ice cream trailer, and the close proximity to Savannah. Loved touring the Lighthouse, and their little gift shop. It was always great to come back home to the charming cottage, which we loved!

Fantastic cottage so close to the beach we were in Heaven!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the entire 4 days at Cottage on The Green A. It was cozy and even my husband and 13 year old son LOVED the decor - not just for girlfriends (smile). We would change a few things though - needed more toilet paper for the duration of the stay we had, could have used an foot sprayer in addition to the outside shower, and the front steps were dirty with muddy footprints when we arrived. but compared with all the things that were absolutely wonderful, those things paled in comparison. We were able to cook most days' meals there with plenty of supplies in the kitchen. The plates and dining ware were a pleasure to eat from - so pretty we felt like we were at home. There was just no skimping on the coziness and pleasantness of the place. We would recommend this lovely cottage in a heartbeat! Thank you!!!

Excellent cottage, Mermaids need a little work

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very 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 spent 4 nights in cottage on the green A, in May. The description and pictures were very inticing and accurate. We enjoyed our stay in Cottage on the Green and on Tybee. We had trouble getting the Mermaids to respond to us. We had a frustrating several days at home trying to get a response from the rental agent on the phone, as it seems at least the one is prone to "call you back", and never does. We didn't get a conformation that we had a reservation until the day before we left home. When we arrived the air conditioning was not working and it was 80 in the apartment. I ran into a Mermaid outside the cottage and she told me to call the service number if it wasn't working in an hour. Called talked to service and was told some people and I will call you back. Never did and no service. There are no windows that open so we sweated through the first night with 85 degrees in the bedroom. Called back in the morning to great surprise that it wasn't fixed but will get on on it and call you back, never did. When we got back from the beach it still wasn't working so started calling sales. After repeated calls to both finally the air was fixed and the rest of the stay was great.

Easy and fun

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had never been to Tybee Island before so we couldn't have been happier with whole experience. Starting with the cottage which was adorable. My husband walked into the cottage first and before I'd even stepped across it's threshold he said " you're going to love this!". I loved the space it was so open and happy. Our weather was great , so we rented a tandem and cycled around the island on that. The beach was a stine's throw from the cottage and there was a fun bar and grill by the light house that had great food and live music which was only a minutes walk away. It was just so relaxing to be on Tybee, and as I said in my title it was just easy and a lot of fun!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our first visit to Tybee Island. When I started looking at places to stay, the Mermaid Cottages just caught my eye as the place I was looking for. The rustic charm of an old cottage but updated with all of the modern day touches. Our cottage was the central spot for us to return to after a day biking around the island or visiting Savannah. I cannot wait to return someday!

Adorable Cottage Beach Getaway

I just fell in love with Tybee and this adorable cottage. I am picky when it comes to my accommodations. The cottage was impeccably clean and the décor was perfect down to every detail. We were less than a 5 minute enjoyable walk to the beach. We rented bikes from Tim's and they delivered and picked up. We loved our day riding bikes through out the island. Great restaurants. Highly recommend Sundae Café for dinner and the Breakfast Club for breakfast. I can't wait to return!

It's small but fabulous. I got last minute reservations the day snow & ice were forecast for Atlanta, best decision ever. I fell in love with this cottage/duplex & I'm planning another trip just so I can stay in Cottage B.
