Vintage Mermaid was adorable
My husband and I came for my birthday from Colorado and left the kids at home! It is a small place, but it was perfect as we only needed to sleep and shower and then we were off on adventures. Clean and cozy! I would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay a while
My wife and I had a great stay. We just wish it could have been for a longer time. We stayed, just passing through, and wish we could have stayed a couple of days to maybe rent a boat, see the sights, fishing and so forth. Hope to come back in the future and spend more time. Thanks for the great service!

I loved it!!
Initially I was only going to stay a couple of nights. But then decided to extend my stay for total of 6 nights. The room was cute and comfortable. It’s an older property which makes it so charming. And very clean. Very clean. I saw one of the reviews said the a/c blew on them at night but just have to adjust the direction of the fan. It’s a silent AC and works very well. Good internet that allowed me to have this working vacation with no glitches. The tilted floor is part of the charm. I loved it. And the bed is level, in case you read the review about the bed. They’ve leveled it with blocks. Very comfortable bed and linens. Free use of the laundry room. The property is so close to Mud Spring and on the Mud River. Manatees and fish! Mangrove, shade, beach! Peace and quiet. I paddled in the kayak provided with the room every day. Super easy … just put the kayak in and paddle away. No hassle at all. The staff told me about Salt Creek and I had such a good time paddling up the creek to the spring and swimming and enjoying the peaceful natural space. Staff are so nice. They kept me stocked up on paper towels and toilet paper. I love solitude and had that on both the property and the river. The neighbors are nice too. Thank you to the owners and staff for making a beautiful and charming place affordable!

Great character… super clean
I’m staying all week. After seeing how quaint the place is, I extended my stay. I feel safe and comfortable. The parking for guests is reserved so they make sure you have a spot if it’s a busy weekend. I’ll be here all week. It feels so peaceful and the beach provides the solitude I love during the week. The neighbors are nice. Gave me tips on kayaking. 😊 I’m working from the room during the day and the internet is much faster than my internet at home. Comfortable for working. The mattress is comfortable. I’ve slept so well!! The room is so clean. It’s an older building so I imagine it makes it more challenging to keep it so clean. The AC worked perfectly, is very adjustable. The appliances are so cute, just what I needed!!! The kayaking is fun!! I’m a beginner and didn’t go too far. I would think a fisherman or serious kayaker would be in heaven. You could kayak to Weeki Wachee or Bayport. The floor has a tilt… which adds to the charm. They’ve leveled out the bed with blocks so it doesn’t effect your sleep. But I love walking on the tilted part because it feels like you’re on a boat… sort of. All in all, this is an adorable place to stay with nice people around you and so affordable.

It was PERFECT for MOTHER'S DAY!
It is the PERFECT place for a little getaway! Very cozy and quaint. Not a big room... but it was just my mom and I - and we just wanted a place to chill... sit out by the river... go to Bayport for some AWESOME OYSTERS... and not hear a bunch of kids running up and down the hall ways! It is off a main Road... but we did NOT HEAR one bit of traffic! Mom and I shared the queen size bed and it was just fine. The bed slept like a dream! The Mini-split AC system kept the room ice cold! I didn't know we would not have a stove... but it was not a problem,...we adjusted and still enjoyed a nice meal. The view from the back window is beautiful OLD STYLE FLORIDA! We took off our shoes and dug our toes in the little sandy beach,..in the colorful beach chairs available along side the river. We are local Floridians.... and just doing a STAY-CATION. It is perfect for 2 people that just want to "get away" from it all -- but still be close to restuarants,... kayaking... cocktails,..and awesome FLORIDA landscape. Super clean and comfortable ------ nothing fancy... but I promise you will ENJOY!

Very nice property off the beaten road. Love that it’s not in the middle of the busy part of the city but still so close to everything. The pictures of the property make it look so big but it’s not it took a day or two to get used to the size of the condo. The shower is not for short people so if you’re short be warned. Other than the small things it was over all a nice place to stay.
