A dont recommended by far.. We were a party of 7 with a service animal, as we entered to go to the patio to accommodate the need of our service dog a lady came in the door and kinda cleared her throat for the attention of the owner to be gotten because of our service dog being with us, the owner then was a B****h about our service animal being with us, down to asking question on our service animal that she was in no rite to do, so me and my service dog left while the rest was gonna eat and purchase $ 50 in towels from downs stairs to be told by the husband he didn't need to make that sale and refused the purchase so I turned we all left... never will we be back there..
ever promise that.... but I can say we was welcome up stream with open arms service animal and all....

Mermaid Marina is on the Tennessee River close to Decaturville and Perryville Tennessee. I've pulled in here quite a few times in our power cruiser when we're not on the sailboat. The most interesting visit was on a VERY hot day in August we were just looking for a break and maybe a cold brew but as we were entering the cove we saw something odd. There were folks walking out with armloads of stuff in quite a hurry. Apparently, the big overhead power lines had melted, wait what?! Did I mention that is was VERY hot? They were giving away ice, ice cream and everything that would obviously go bad in a hurry, oh yeah it was VERY hot LOL On to the review ... There's access for small and large boats, as big as freighters, and there's lots of dock space to tie up your boat as well as transient spots should you want to stay a while. If you are launching from here or just coming to the restaurant/bar they have a large parking lot and area for launched vehicles & trailers. they have fuel services (both diesel and gas), limited boat repair, permanent slips for all size boats from fishing boats to 40' party boats, a transient dock, a retail store with snacks, supplies, swimming and fishing gear, and more. There are separate reviews for Mermaid Marina and the restaurant but it's all together in the same building and while you can come here by land, and a lot of people do, you always know that you are on the river. They celebrate everything here from Cinco de mayo to Madris Gras and Superbowl. They never miss a chance to have fun whether it a Bachelorette party or 4th of July fireworks launched from a barge it's always something. They also have cabins for rent by the day, I'm not familiar with them but they're on the property and I have talked to a couple who were spending the weekend on the Redneck Riviera and seemed to be having a good time. Bottom line: The air conditioning is good and cold and so is the beer. The food is pretty good, especially the burgers and the people are very friendly and helpful. It's not a bad place to take a break, whether a storm or just recharge your batteries. If you are just cruising the area or if you're coming up from Mobile Bay this big building and all the docks are tightly tucked away in a cove and behind some small hills so look for the big sign or be safe and punch on the coordinates. See ya' in the river!! [ 35° 33' 24.13'', -88° 0' 24.11'' ]

Worst food and service ever! I was asked to put a shirt on when my swimsuit top covered more than a women's tank top... had to buy a shirt in the gift shop to eat the worst food ever.... My husband spent the night hugging the toilet bowl and I held it down.... Ruined our weekend as it's Sunday morning and we can't go far from the toilet! A shared patty left and overcooked onion rings... who screws that up! We'll stick with the Clifton marina... best food and service!

We love Bear, Pam, and the staff at the mermaid!! They all work so hard! If you like adult frozen drinks that’s the place to go. The Miami Vice is my favorite. They also have the best t-shirts ever!!
