No smoking in the house, please, but smokers are always welcome to stay, as long as they smoke on the porch or outside & use the sand buckets. There are 4 TV/DVD players, stereo system for your enjoyment. Linens & towels are provided, 1 set up per person per reservation. Please, bring your own beach towels, house towels should not go to the beach. Wood/Ceramic tile floors, so you don't have to deal w/less than clean carpets. Large jetted tub in the master bath.

***The map makes the house look as if it sits on the bypass it does NOT! It is 3 lots from the bypass.***The house is located on the East side of Croatan Hwy (the bypass) 3 lots from the bypass, however, it sits far off the road up against a quiet lil' pond. This allows lots of privacy & is quieter than if it were located up closer to Third St. The walk is less than 2 1/2 minutes directly up 3rd street to the beach with a Lifeguard Station right at that access! Walking up 3rd St, the only street you cross to get to the beach is 'the beach road', 2 lane-35 mph speed zone. There is no parking at the end of the 3rd St beach access, however, there is a place to pull in to unload 'beach stuff' & then park back at the cottage. There are many great places to visit other than the beach, all within a short drive from this home. Historic Roanoke Island, the light houses; Ocracoke Island & Corolla for a day trip, etc.

Mermaid's purse

Review Submitted: October 12, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We really liked our stay and the house. Close to everything and easily accessible to all restaurants and sightseeing. Not beachfront but close enough. Our dog loved it.
Owner's Response: This property is not advertised as beach front.

Wonderful Home

Review Submitted: September 23, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
This was one of the nicest homes I have rented in the Outerbanks. The location was great and the home was decorated lovely and very clean. This is the ideal home for people with pets! The dog pen was an added plus and we enjoyed sitting under the tree while keeping an eye on the dogs.
The owner was great and we would definately rent properties from her again!

You won't regret renting this house!

Happy pet owner Northern VA
Review Submitted: September 15, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
I stayed in Mermaid's Purse about a week ago and LOVED it. The house is beautiful and a direct shot to the beach (don't be fooled by the map).

The remodeling is gorgeous and cozy. And the yard and dog pen were a fantastic bonus. My dog dug in the pen and swam in the pond and was happy as could be.

I would definitely rent this house again, and you should too.

Not only are the location and property itself great the owner/manager went out of her way to make our stay the best possible.

Thanks again!

Wonderful house

Jalynn Virginia
Review Submitted: August 9, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The house was wonderful and so was the owner. It is even more pleasing in person than the pictures show. The experience was excellent. The jacuzzi bathtub was just what a sore body needed after arriving and long days on the beach! The pond and wildlife were relaxing and did not draw bugs as one might think. Convenient and relaxing location. The screened porch was a nice place to relax as was the patio which was also great for cookouts. We would defintely rent this property again and would recommend it to a family with or without young children. There was enough room to enjoy one another and also to have privacy. The master bedroom/bath suite was excellent. Our dogs enjoyed the kennel and the screened front porch. The wooden and tiled floors were so superior to carpeted floors. The remodeling made a pleasing and relaxing environment.
