We had a wonderful time at Clamdigger. The house was just we needed. My husband and our 2 boys (9/12) stayed upstairs and our in-laws loved the apartment downstairs. We lived on the front porch from coffee to cocktails. We walked all through the neighborhoods and into town. The beach and river were close so no need to get in the car. The house vibe we perfect retro vacation vibes. Can’t wait to come back.

Memorial Day week

Great property. Not far to walk to the beach. Parking was very tight and difficult to get in an out with a full size truck. This was the only downside. We enjoyed our stay!

Perfect Beach Cottage

We absolutely loved our stay! Mermaid Cottages was a dream to work with (excellent communication and customer service!) and the property was stunning! Such a cute retro beach vibe cottage in close proximity to the beach! The room set up was perfect for the 2 families we had - 2 nice rooms for the adults and 1 room that the kids shared. The 2 living room areas as well as the screened in porch area gave us plenty of options on places to hang out and spend time together. Kitchen was spacious and fully stocked with everything we needed to cook the groceries we brought with us and the complementary sample pack of Perc coffee was such a nice treat! We will definitely be back and will recommend to others!

Great Beach Getaway

Very close to beach and pier. Renting a golf cart made it a lot easier to get around on the island. Tammy with Mermaid Cottages was absolutely amazing to work with.
