About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Mermaid's Muse - Includes GOLF CART! Close to beach & downtown Ocean Springs!

Approximately a mile from the water, Mermaid's Muse is a beautiful, three-bedroom property near the white sands and beautiful sunsets of Ocean Springs beaches, as well as just down the road from the heart of the historic downtown Ocean Springs shopping/restaurant district. 

This charming, newly renovated cottage has three bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and includes the use of a deluxe electric street-legal golf cart!

Mermaid Muse is the perfect place for a romantic weekend getaway, as well as week-long vacations with the family. 

Loaded with amenities, you will find a clean, artistically decorated space with all the conveniences of home.

Mermaid's Muse features a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances including an oven/stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, toaster, blender, coffee maker, and all the utensils you will need for preparing meals on days you rather stay in the comforts of home, rather than eating out at the numerous Ocean Springs hot-spots.

The living room provides a comfortable place to lounge in front of the large flat-screen SmartTV, and provides an extra place to sleep if needed with the pull-out Queen-size sofa bed. 

In the Master Bedroom, you will find a Sleep Number King bed and SmartTV, with a private bathroom.

There are two guest bedrooms with a full bathroom between them. The entire property is equipped with high-speed wireless Internet.

There is a front porch deck as well as a front balcony that provides outdoor seating to relax in the gulf breezes.

***There should be no more than six people on the property unless prior permission is given. No events or parties are allowed of any kind. We have exterior security cameras for the safety of both guests and property outside of the home. There are no inside cameras.***

Ocean Springs is a golf cart-friendly town, and we provide a four-seat deluxe electric golf cart with built-in radio & Bluetooth speakers for our guests to use to go to the beach and downtown at no additional cost.

While at Mermaid's Muse you will feel completely at home and never need to leave the property to have a fantastic stay, but if you can tear yourself away, you'll find yourself just down the road from the heart of the quaint historic town of Ocean Springs. It has many great restaurants, museums, art galleries, sidewalk cafes, antique stores, and unique gift shops for you to enjoy.

Mermaid's Muse is the perfect place for your vacation. Book your stay today!

We had the best time at Mermaid Muse. Our family of 4 loved the quaint and cozy style of the house. It was beautifully decorated and accommodating. The bedrooms and bed were so comfortable! We had the best nights of sleep there and when you are traveling - that’s important! The golf cart was a great and convenient feature for hitting the downtown and restaurants. The house was so close to everything - it was just perfect. The host was very attentive and provided great communication. We will definitely stay again in the future!!

Cute place near everything in downtown Ocean Springs

We loved this place and the golf cart! Adorable cottage nestled in a safe area amongst other cottages. It was close to the beach and everything in the downtown area and the golf cart made it easy for us to get around with our 6 month old. We truly enjoyed our stay!
