Mermaid House is Lovely!

The house was beautifully decorated, well-equipped, extremely clean! The kitchen island and master suite with claw foot bath tub was my favorite! My family loved the pool and spa! Stu and Kathy were amazing hosts and very accessible with questions. We would definitely stay again!!

Just perfect!

This is the second property of Stu and Cathy’s that we rented and it was just as perfect. All of the above-and-beyond finishing touches really make you feel at home. The home is extremely clean and gorgeous, the pool is inviting and relaxing, and the lake views are beautiful. We will definitely be visiting again!

Thank you!

There are hardly words to summarize our experience at Mermaid Cove! From the moment we walked in, we felt like it was a dream! It was fun to pretend this was our forever home! The attention to every single detail, the ambiance, the truly welcome feeling is sweet! Your home is so clean, the linens are luxurious! From lounging by the pool, relaxing in the hot tub or fishing or kayaking, there was never a need to search for something to do!! We will be back!!!

Enjoyable short stay

Stayed for 3 nights, wish we stayed longer. My 14 y.o. son who recently took up bass fishing would wake up very early in the morning to fish from the dock. He would fish until sundown and probably longer if the dock was lighted. The Kayaks came in handy as well. My wife, who's a stickler for cleanliness approved of the place. Publix is just 5 minutes away. We hope to return again next year.

Just Perfect!

House, pool, grounds -- perfect. Beautifully decorated, well-equipped, extremely clean! EVERYTHING you could need or want for your trip to Cape Coral was there -- coolers, beach wagon, fish poles, bikes, pool floats, beach towels, and so much more. Stu and Kathy were amazing hosts and very accessible with questions. Sunsets were breath-taking. A piece of paradise -- but very short distance to all stores. PS - This house has the kitchen island of my dreams! Kitchen is beautiful and very well equipped -- so gorgeous you'll want to cook during your vacation!

Stu and Cathy... another amazing home!

There's something to be said about a Stu and Cathy Scheller home. My husband and I have rented a few times from them and there is always a feeling I get when I take that first step inside... its a feeling of warmth, like I am home, and staying at Mermaid was no different. There was so much attention to detail- from the decor and beachy theme to the choice of tile to the cleanliness of the house! I really loved the blue and white theme around the home.. The kitchen was fabulous with a ton of counter space! I really enjoyed the giant island and cooking in this kitchen. I love to cook and since we don't really eat out, the kitchen got a lot of use! There was an abundant amount of silverware, gadgets, dishes, glasses, plasticware and even a butcher block knife set which I used every day.. The china was also a nice touch. The master bed was amazingly comfortable, not too hard or soft and the shower was FANTASTIC with a big rain shower head and super water pressure! We loved the pool and were in it constantly! Beautiful backyard and dock! The house is right down the street from a Publix so that was very convenient. Mermaid is located on a lake that is full of fish. My husband had a blast in the mornings 'slaying the bass' as he called it and of course fishing poles and tackle were provided for our use. The back of the house gets sun all day long and the sunsets were phenomenal! Tons of chairs and loungers! We loved this house so much we didn't want to leave! So much so, we have booked it again for October! Stu and Cathy are always accessible by phone or email and I feel like when I talk to either of them, it's like talking to an old friend of mine. They are very accommodating and easy to talk to! Stu and Cathy, thank you for a wonderful stay, AGAIN! Your attention to detail and endless amenities really made our stay first class! We can't wait to come back!

Prefect family getaway

Hosts were great at communication start to finish. If I had any trouble their previously sent email and text messages helped me get through it. House was clean. Big kitchen with pots, pans and seasonings. Pool was clean (some leaves and bugs fell in but no fault to host). Screened outdoor patio and sunset views were great ! Access to wheel wagon, beach chairs, umbrella, kids sand toys, and a cooler. Thank you for hosting !

Perfection

What a great house and beautiful setting! This place was a comfortable fit for my 3 night stay in the area. The house itself was fantastic, but the screened-in porch, pool area and water views made the whole house choice so much more enjoyable and peaceful. You can’t go wrong staying here with its equipped kitchen — but there are also nice spots to eat close by if you’d rather go out. I would definitely stay here again!!!!

Awesome Sunsets

This property was a great find and we would definitely stay here again. Awesome lake views and beautiful sunsets. The saltwater pool and hot tub were wonderful and the water temperature was a perfect 88 degrees. The house was super clean and had everything you needed in a great kitchen. I fished from the dock some every day and caught several bass. The owner, Stu, was very responsive and helpful with the few questions we had during our visit.

Mermaid Cove left us with a great tale!

Upon arrival, we found a lovely, very clean, property with an atmosphere that was very beachy and serene. We had a wonderful time kayaking on the lake, fishing on the dock right in our yard, and swimming in the luxurious heated pool with hot tub. The property provided us with every luxury and comfort of home and more. The property was also located in an area with plenty to do Including a waterpark, and miniature golf within walking distance. The neighborhood was a great place to ride bikes which were also provided, as well as taking leisurely walks around the lake. Not only was it a relaxing and comfortable experience, it was also a very affordable vacation as well. We can’t say enough good things about our experience. The owners, Stu and Cathy, provided us with an email prior to arrival and before departure with easy to understand instructions with everything we needed to know about the property. Their contact information was also available in case we encountered any problems, which we did not. We are already planning our next vacation with Sea Schell vacation rentals.

Spring break 2024

Our family of 5 enjoyed our stay here. The boys did not catch any fish, but had fun trying. The pool and hot tub were great. We traveled to several beaches nearby. The beach towels, umbrella, chairs and cooler were great to have available. Communication with the host was good. Check in and out were seamless.

The Perfect Set-Up

My wife and I were looking for the perfect get-away yo enjoy the southwest Florida Spring. We certainly found it with this Mermaid Cove property hosted by Stu and Cathy. The house was in tip-top shape. They ensured outstanding attention-to-detail. With regard to decorating, the house is done in an up-to-date, tasteful manner. The provisioning of housewares, linens, etc. were well above average. This place is a sure fire bet!!!

Wonderful location and beautiful property!

We really enjoyed our week long stay. The private pool and spa were used daily. The dock overlooking the lake was a nice peaceful place to take in the sunsets. We were able to take a day trip to Sanibel and Captiva islands and made multiple visits to the Southwest Florida Eagle Cam location. I would highly recommend staying at this wonderful property with its excellent location!
