This charming cottage in Morro Bay is the ideal retreat for guests seeking a cozy getaway. The cottage is quiet and peaceful with dove songs and an easy ten minute walk to the beach. The mermaid theme is fun and lights are present to add a romantic atmosphere for self or your partner. There is an outdoor patio with two sets of couches to lounge on, a BBQ, and a hammock inside the yard space. I offer beach bikes to cruise downtown and kayaks to rent. A Keurig coffee maker, a water purifier decanter, an electric kettle, a refrigerator, dishes and silverware, and snacks are all provided. Book now and enjoy everything this cottage has to offer. My hope is that your experience will be like a retreat in nature. The ocean breezes and scents . . and the song of the Dove’s cooing. Come back to a space you can easily meditate, lounge around in a plush spa robe, or open a bottle of wine/beer chilling in the mini fridge. Other options included; BBQ on the patio, taking my kayaks out on the bay to immerse yourself in nature completely. Take the bikes on a ride to the Embarcadero to view the sea otters, or surf at the Rock (best surf in the area). Really great road trips/adventures can start here too - to go north to see the Elephant Seals, to Big Sur, to Hearst Castle, San Simeon Cove, (so many small beaches along the way to explore and collect driftwood, shells and stones), Cayucos Pier, Whale Rock Reservoir, and the many wineries in Paso Robles (still open for viewing, orders, not tasting). To venture south on a day trip could include; Pismo Preserve ( a new hiking trail with awesome ocean views), Shell Beach (best substation brunch at The Cliffs), Avila Beach/cove, San Luis Obispo Edna Valley, Monarch Butterfly Grove in Pismo, Oceano Dunes where you can drive on the beach, and Lopez Lake in Arroyo Grande for fishing, boating and hiking.
This space is small (11 x 26 ft) which is why I named it a cabin. (11'x15' is the bedroom and living space combined.) There is no space for a third person to sleep on the floor.
Conveniences:
There is a single cup coffee maker (Keurig) with coffee, an electric kettle and tea, mugs, dishes, plenty of silverware and drinking glasses for two. A microwave oven and a small refrigerator with a tiny freezer. A filtered water pitcher. A BBQ and a large patio space in the garden to sit and relax; that is a shared space, rarely used. Parking right outside your door.
Have fun with decorative lights for ambiance.
Super soft “spa” robes.
Heated towel rack.
Heater for the bathroom.
Two organic, certified asthma free pillows.
There is an extra wool blanket.
There is a portable heater and fan.
You have some quiet yard space of your own to sit outside: A a real oyster shell beach at your doorstep, A single hammock in your own private yard. A double hammock in nearby yard (shared not private). We have plenty of hummingbirds and doves to enchant you! I have two kayaks you can use located onshore along side the bay ( a quick ten minute drive). (Small fee and signed waiver needed.) You can literally pull the kayaks into the Bay just a few steps away.
I also have two beach cruiser bikes you can use! They’re grab and go! Message me to put them out for you. ** The Mermaid Cottage has been listed on another vacation rental site for almost ten years.
