Summary: Property was as listed. Very clean. Owner was very helpful and accommodating. Perfect for the four of us to escape Helene and enjoy being away from stress of weather worries. We enjoyed the casinos and driving along the beach to explore nearby areas. We would not hesitate to stay again.

Summary: We stayed for 3 nights. The house was beautiful! Check in was easy and the house had anything you could think of to make it feel like home. This was our first time to the area and our host, Debra, was able to answer questions and give suggestions before our stay. Debra’s communication and availability to make sure we made it to the house and checked in ok, or needed anything was superb!! The location of the house was perfect for us. It’s in a nice neighborhood where we could drive a short distance east or west to Biloxi or Bay St Louis for all the touristy stuff. Being so close to the beach was nice. The 300+yr old magnolia in the back is amazing. The room sizes were surprisingly big. They really brought out the charm of this older home and added all the modern touches to it. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: The 5 of us stayed 4 nights. Everything was perfect and close to everything we planned to do. The house was very comfortable and so charming. We had everything we needed and more. The magnolia tree was an added bonus as we’re getting to hear the trains go by. Debra was easy to communicate with, which, for us was only at check in and check in and check out as we needed for nothing. Can’t wait to come back.

Summary: We so enjoyed staying at this property. It is a beautiful old home convenient to many attractions in the Gulfport area. Very spacious home, very clean. The master bath was very accommodating for handicapped seniors. The kitchen was well stocked with any appliance you might need. The beds were very comfy. Our little dog loved the fenced backyard and screened in front porch. The 300 year old plus magnolia tree was so beautiful. Lastly, Debra was fantastic, keeping us well-informed during our stay.

Summary: The house was great, with modern touches and historic charm. Our host was great, communicating with us throughout the weekend and being helpful with the questions we had. The location was terrific, and the ear plugs that were offered for the train was a nice touch but wholly unnecessary for us. We'd definitely stay again!

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay. The rooms were setup very nicely and had plenty of room. The living room was very spacious and lots of sitting space. The dinning room area was wonderful and big enough for all of us to sit and enjoy our meals together. The kitchen was big and we enjoyed cooking every night. The back yard is just beautiful and sitting on the front porch every morning drinking coffee while the breeze was flowing and the birds were chirping (what a way to wake up and start your day). The train is very close so I do recommend ear plugs. The house reminded me of my grandmothers and it brought back very fond memories and make me feel good. The host and co-host were very nice and accommodating.
