Three Mermaids' Cottage is named for our daughters, and we are all about family! We are family owned and operated, a true mom and pop business. You will deal with us directly, not a realty company or property manager. We do our best to make sure everything is ideal for your stay. Our bungalow is clean, well equipped, and very nice. A true home away from home.
Please read our reviews and you will see many who really appreciate our little piece of heaven by the sea.

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!!
You can find us East side between the highways in Nags Head at MP 10.5.
This has us centrally located, close to the beach, eateries, stores, the YMCA, the new Dowdy Park, and a mile from the Nags Head Fishing Pier.
We are two short blocks away from the beach. It's a 3 min. walk with direct beach access at either end of the street.
We are a block from the grocery store as well, it doesn't get much better!

Summer season weeks run Saturday to Saturday. Sheets and towels are supplied complimentary of charge. You will find clean sheets along with 6 bath towel packages in the bedrooms.

We are always updating and upgrading. We have modern amenities but still retain the homey "bungalow by the sea" feel.

The kitchen is well equipped. It has plenty of dishes, glassware, pots and pans, and modest appliances. Dishwashing liquid, dishwashing pods, hand soap, trash bags, & coffee filters are outfitted for you. The breakfast nook seats 6, and is the ideal place for comfortable family meals, game playing and appreciating time together.

The main living area is elegantly decorated, with new furnishings, and bespoke touches and artwork throughout. We have a new 55" intelligent TV. Those with a Netflix account can log in to watch your favorite shows.

Bedroom 1, first floor, Queen bed, TV and nice size closet. It connects to the first floor bathroom.
Bedroom 2, second floor, (bunk room) 2 singles, great for the kids, they adore the bunk beds, and will savor the TV and DVD player. The bunk room connects to a Jack and Jill bath.
Bedroom 3, second floor, Queen bed, has a TV & DVD player and a huge closet. There's also a sitting nook attached, ideal for curling up with a good book. This bedroom also connects to the Jack and Jill bath.
The loft area is added space for the kids to enjoy board games, or if you need a peaceful space to simply chill out, or work (if you must). We have complimentary wifi.

We have a mud room on the ground floor, with a full-sized washer and dryer. Also in the mud room, you'll find a closet with beach equipment for our guests. We have beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, body boards, corn hole, some sand toys and other fun games. Lastly there's a new wagon to haul it all to the beach.

Outside, you'll find two decks, one is covered and shady for calming after a day in the sun, or if you are a sun worshiper, the upper deck is complete with table and chairs for al fresco dining. Our back yard is roomy, flat, and fenced in for security and added privacy. It's ideal for cornhole, playing horseshoes, bocce ball or whatever outdoor games your family enjoys.

Lastly we have a keyless entry, nice outdoor shower, a swing, a new gas grille, and picnic table.

****Please make sure you read and understand all aspects of our rental agreement and home rules. Specifically, our occupancy limit and penalties for noncompliance, hurricane policy, and the "no animals allowed" rule. We are true animal lovers, but sadly we have family members that are highly allergic. There are many pet friendly homes along the Outer Banks. We would be more than happy to recommend some to you so you can bring your furry family member along without any worries.
Thanks for understanding. Any questions? Feel complimentary to ask! We are happy to help.

After being guests ourselves for many years, we strive to make this home our, and your home away from home. We have put a lot of thought and care into making it a nice, clean, organized, safe environment for everybody. After all, it's about family and friends, spending time together with the ones you appreciate, and making memories that last a lifetime!!

Finding the best rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

  • To book the best rental within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Nags Head attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
  • The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
  • Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
  • Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
  • Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Nags Head area travel guide magazines which include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Nags Head area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

  • Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a maximum budget.
  • Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Three Mermaids Cottage, Nags Head, 2 blocks to the beach, read our reviews! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Nags Head rental home search.
  • Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property owner before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your trip.
  • Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
  • Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
  • Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.

Tips for your stay:

  • Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
  • Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if there is a dispute.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many concerns.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your life at home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
  • Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
  • Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
  • Did you have a wonderful time? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
