rented property for the band and family for my 60th birthday party. Convenient location, great quiet neighborhood. Good Location to boating, fishing, and kids can play safely in the area. Great Staff, not your average Vacation Rental service. Above and beyond giving local recommendations for food, fun and safe beaching.

This is a great home with all the amenities you need. Its close enough to everything but still gives privacy tucked away in a neighborhood. We have enjoyed our stay each time and look forward to coming back next year!! They are very kind and easy to work with. Easy to get a hold of when needed. I had some issues booking through one of the rental apps (VRBO-some sort of glitch). I was able to grt ahold of the staff quickly and ensure we were booked and any next steps. Very pleased with the response and effort!

Overall the experience was amazing but my 2 issues were the outside trash for the property was nearly at the time of our check in which trash wasn’t emptied the day before our stay. Secondly my family mentioned the upstairs sleeping areas were warm at night and they could have used a floor or tower fan to help circulate the air in rooms. Aside from that we all enjoyed our stay and will stay again in the future with Y Knot getawaY Vacation rentals Marie was very helpful and had great communication with me at and near times of rental stay.

We really enjoyed this home. It had a king bed on the ground floor that worked well for us since we have a senior dog. The pool was the cherry on top for us, combine that with the view and its an awesome stay!

We have stayed at this house 4 times now. Ive never once had a complaint, however this time was bad. Sheets were dirty, I had to wash them, there were no extra clean sheets in the home. Pool was dirty, then on the day before we check out, pool guy shows up at 7 am and pours so much cleaner in the pool it was not safe to use. We killed several rroaches, there were no cleaning supplies just to clean up the small messes that needed to be cleaned and there wasnt enou4gh trash bags. I am not letting my stay there this time form my opinion on the property, because the other 3 times were amazing. However, for the money we paid I did expect a little more cleanliness.

Easy and relaxed
Easy, private with nice little pool. I had older kids but think it would be perfect for family with smaller children.

Beautiful home but had a few problems
The home was beautiful and the furniture was so comfortable and absolutely gorgeous. There was lots of activities to keep everyone entertained.
However, We rented this home because it says it is handicap assessable( I am 100% disable veteran) the home has many small drop offs from room to room and the only handicap bathroom has no shower and there are no rails or handles for commode.
Also when we arrived Wed afternoon the pool was a hot mess! At least 40 dead frogs and the pool was slimy! Could not swim.. however the pool man came Thursday and added chemicals which helped the slim but we were continuously fishing frogs out of the pool. Hundreds of frogs! My granddaughter was so upset they were dying she left a float in there in hopes they could get on it. Im not sure how to fix that problem being that its so close to wildlife.
Also you might leave a note somewhere saying that the lawn folks and pool man come on Thursday mornings. It was alarming when a white panel van with a masked man jumped out and ran to the back yard. The lawn people left the water hose out all the way down the sidewalk. Could be a liability for you.
Also on our arrival the house was way to hot and took all night to cool it off. Need to set thermostat lower and get some blinds.
I feel that this home has so much potential and so many things to offer just need to work the kinks out. Good luck in the future.

The house is wonderful
We had a really good time at Mermaids Haven. The house has EVERYTHING you need. The beds are very comfortable. The pool was clean. Only DOWNSIDE was the thermostat would automatically change to 78° at night making for a very sweaty and restless night. Would stay again (only in the fall)

This is a beautiful property but do not rent.
We loved the property but the management of this property was poor. I had an email confirming that curtains and blinds had been installed in the whole house. Upon arrival, there were no curtains or blinds on any of the downstairs windows. It took about 5 hours to cool the house down. We had to tact towels and sheets over all the downstairs windows. The back yard had not been mowed and the pool was dirty. We contacted the management and they sent out pool guy and someone to mow the yard. When I complained about anything, the manager made excuses and was very condescending. She acted as though I should be grateful for fixing the problems when all that should have been done before our arrival. The whole experience really put a damper on our trip. The property is beautiful though and just needs some upgrades. We would not rent this property again and would not recommend to our friends or family.

Home away from home
Easy. Everything went so smooth. Responses were fairly quick. Pool, deck, plenty of yard, inside and outside games, towels, fully stocked kitchen, extra throw blankets, back balcony a plus and a quiet family neighborhood. Even saw a few deer. Perfect.
All it was missing was blinds or curtains,but seems it was recently renovated. Will definitely like to come back.
