Ground Level, Fenced Yard, Dogs Welcome Easy Walk to Back River Beaches

CONTACTLESS CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT

We love this mid century home from the 1950's formerly known as Canty's Cottage. Vintage, yet freshly painted and redecorated.
Cantaloupe Cottage is a classic Mid Century Modern island home built in the 1950’s and completely restored with Central AC and all modern updates, this ground level, pet-friendly home features a large fully fenced back and side yards with views of the Back River! Which means the Back River beach and fishing pier is just a minute away! AND only 1.5 blocks to Alley 3- the local Kayak launch area.
With 3 bedrooms and 1.25 bathrooms (one full bathroom with a tub/shower combo and one shower-only room), plus a Florida room and an amazing kitchen, this home is a little charmer!

Enjoy your complimentary sample of Mermaid Morning Bliss coffee; a special perk for all Mermaid Cottages guests!

The backyard Tybee Tiki-Hut is the ultimate finishing touch! Blend your margaritas (or smoothies ~ we won't judge!) and enjoy a little island style right here!
Complimentary off-street parking for 3 cars.
Minimum Age Requirement: You must be 25 years of age to rent this property.

ALL PET FRIENDLY HOMES REQUIRE AN ADDITIONAL PET FEE. PLEASE PICK UP AFTER YOUR PETS!
NO BEACH TOWELS OR BEACH GEAR PROVIDED
PLEASE NOTE: MINIMUM NIGHT STAY REQUIREMENTS WILL APPLY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR INCLUDING HOLIDAYS, SPRING BREAK AND OUR SUMMER SEASON.

Close to the beach!
We really enjoyed our stay at Canteloupe Cottage. The property was very nice on a pleasant, quiet road. We were walking/biking distance from the Chatham Rd beach access point, and several other inlet access points. We had a lot of fun.
