Annual Summer Family Trip

The 2024 family trip was a huge success and the Mermaid House was a big part of that success. The house was perfect and the paddle boards and kayaks were huge hits. The hosts are fantastic and the overall experience couldn’t have been better. Highly recommend this property!

Spacious, Stylish, and Family-Friendly

The house was absolutely beautiful and offered plenty of space for both relaxing and spending time together in the shared areas. We especially loved the kitchen, dining, and living room area—with its stunning view of the bay, it quickly became our favorite spot.It was perfect for our toddlers too—they had space to play nearby while we prepared meals. The home was spotless, tastefully decorated, and very comfortable. Communication with the host was excellent—they responded promptly and were always helpful. We had a wonderful stay!

The Mermaid House

We had a fantastic time here! Loved everything about the place. Had plenty of room for our family of 11. We used the kayaks and paddleboard and loved going up and down the canals and into the Bay area. Had lots of beach toys and chairs to use too. Perfect area to vacation at. It was a little tricky locking the front door, but we got it to lock. The back patio cabinet area could have been cleaner but overall a fabulous place to stay on vacation. Highly recommend!

Great Time at The Mermaid House

Had an amazing time at The Mermaid House. We had 12 people staying from 3 generations ages 17-85. Wonderful place right on the water. The community pool was a few blocks away and close to the beach where our family reunion was located. The kitchen and dining area were great for family meals and some games. The master bath shower pressure was so great that others were going in to shower and the claw foot tub made my wife very very happy. Great place to stay. Thanks

Beautiful house with wonderful hosts

We absolutely loved our stay! We had a last minute trip planned with our large family and Craig’s house was available. Craig was very accommodating and flexible to assist with checking in just a bit earlier since the house was available. And what a wonderful house, it had everything we needed and more, brand new, clean, kid-friendly and just great. We loved being right on the water as my husband and my son were fishing off the dock the whole time when we were not on the beach, which is only a few min drive away, as well as grocery stores, restaurants, and everything else. Great house, great location, amazing people. Thank you for sharing your home with us, Craig and Mimi!

The Ritz of Rockport

We were blown away by The Mermaid House! It is the quintessential vacation home for family and friends. Artfully designed and decorated with ample seating and dining areas, we felt at home the minute we walked in. Thanks to the generosity of the owners, we enjoyed the kayaks and boards. This is a house to be experienced. And the porch with its view is sublime. I only wished for a few hooks in the closet/bath area. You will love this house!

This property is one of the best. Location is fabulous and it is large and so thoughtfully and tastefully done. We had 4 generation over the New Yeats Holiday and enjoyed the inside and the outside amenities to the fullest. There are great areas for everyone to gather, but also plenty of bedrooms for privacy.
