Home away from Home

Excellent place and exactly what we were looking for. Felt very safe, private, away from a lot of traffic with a great view of the water from the porch and out of the south side windows. The only thing we would have liked our bed a little better. LoL

A new favorite home away from home

The property has privacy and is walking distance to the water. Maybe a couple of blocks to the sand but still close. The rooms are roomy and well decorated. We slept well after showering with lots of hot water. The kitchen had the equipment/dishes we needed to prepare our own meals. Having coffee while enjoying the sun rise was worth it. We'll bring our mopeds next time! The dusk brings out the pesty mosquitos gnats, etc so I'd advise some sort of pest repellant. Love the floor plan, the loft allows for privacy and the open floor downstairs is perfect! It's about 4 miles from downtown Bay St Louis. Excellent hosts!

Relaxing Vacation

We loved the location of this property. It was close to the beach, but we had little ones so we drove. It was only a short drive to Bay St. Louis and the casino, too. The house is as listed and was perfect for our family.

Beautiful view, quiet area in Waveland

We loved the area. The house was great with a few things we would like to see updated. TV is Roku, no cable for tv. No TV’s in bedrooms. Would prefer the upstairs had a door for privacy. A lot of the windows were bare, would like blinds for privacy. The owner was nice and kept in contact. New washer & dryer was put on while we stayed.

Quiet neighborhood right on the beach! House is well furnished, clean and comfortable. Good location ( hour away from New Orleans, 10 - 15 minutes to Bay St. Louis, two minutes to Silver Slipper Casino and short walk to beach! We toured the WW2 museum as well as a plantation and swamp tour. Deidra was quick to answer any questions. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Great property and close beaches

The house was very nice, however it was missing the basics such as shampoo, body wash etc that we have always had at previous Vrbo locations. We were not aware of this before hand to pack them. We also found out after we started traveling that the host only supplies 1 garbage bag, 1 roll of paper towel and toilet paper for the stay. Those things should be communicated earlier or more generously provided as they typically are at other vrbo homes.

Beautiful home

The house itself was clean and very well stocked. I assumed there would be TVs in the bedrooms and there isn’t. That was disappointing. The ceilings in the common area is very high and beautiful and there is a ceiling fan to help keep it cool but wow that fan makes some kind of crazy loud noise. We have a sound sensitive child and couldn’t use the fan much so the house would get quite warm. My biggest issue is this home is listed as being close to the beach. It’s not. The beach down the road and around the corner and not within walking distance if you have small children or have to carry anything. And it’s not in Bay St Louis, it is in Waveland. Bay is a few miles away but it is a cute very small town. Best place being Pop Bros popsicle shop (we went everyday) . Our family we stick with Panama City and Destin. This just was not a beach vacation.

Much needed quiet getaway

Property was wonderful. While the location is close to lots of fun things to see and do, our purpose for this trip was to simply relax. We saw the local sites, but we spent most of our time deciding whether to sit on the front porch or the back! Both were just great. Property owner was extremely helpful and pleasant to deal with.

Perfect family vacation

Our family stayed for a couple days vacation in Bay St Louis. This was an amazing property. Close to beaches but away from the busy hustle and bustle of everyday life. Our family loved our stay here. There is a beach about a mile down the road toward the silver slipper casino allowing for some fun in the sun and water plus a place to fish. Old town Bay St Louis is also very close for shopping and dining. Would definitely recommend for families and couples. We are already planning our vacation for next year. Thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful home.

Family friendly, quiet town

The house- is as advertised. All the conveniences of being at home. Buy groceries and you never have to leave. View is beautiful, same view from porch and living room. The house is a half a mile from a small beach area and about a mile from public beach areas either direction. You could walk but in my opinion it's just far enough to have to drive. (Perfect for renting a golf cart) There is free parking all along the way. The beaches are quiet and the water is so calm and very shallow. The area itself is not your typical tourist spot. No large hotels on the beach. Almost all residential. About 7 miles from the house is Old Bay St. Louis. You follow the coastal road all the way there. There are cute little boutiques, ice cream and coffee shops and nice restaurants. You can park and walk once you get there. It's all within a few blocks. There is a bar just a block or so away from the house going away from the coast. There wasn't any trouble but at night the traffic picked up to and from it. A half mile from the house is the water park. You can see it from the road. Great prices for it too. New Orleans is an hour away. It's an easy drive. We went as a family. I have 3 teenagers so a day trip made more sense. We booked a walking tour around the city. It was well worth it to hear the stories and history behind the city. The area is beautiful. It really felt very homey and safe. It was comfortable to drive in and navigate. Relaxation over adventure, this is it.

Nice Place, Great Location

We really liked the house. We have a family of 5, and were all comfortable. You're about an hour from New Orleans and 30 minutes from Gulfport, which have more things to do if you like bigger towns. The house within sight of the Gulf and walking distance to a small beach. We found driving a short distance toward Bay St. Louis had larger beaches with good parking. Old Town Bay St. Louis was a really nice town. It had a lot of local shops, beautiful homes, and nice restaurants. With kids, buy a couple of drop nets for crabbing, bait them with chicken, and head to a low bridge over a marsh. Its cheap, fun, and the blue crabs are delicious.

We are very grateful that all of our guest love it too! Visit us and I know you will Love it too!!

Deidra and Chris Edwards- homeowners

Why they chose this property

The views...we have views of the Gulf of Mexico from almost every window in the house! We are close to everything....the beach, Old Town Bay St Louis, the Silver Slipper Casino and the Bucaneer State Park (great for kids!)...if you love to fish or crab the gulf offers several areas for public fishing and crabbing right from the shore. Nature is abundant at our Beach House....the Bald Eagle flies by every evening on its' final fishing trip of the day and the rabbits snack on the green grassy areas around the home. We weekend here frequently and hope you enjoy the home as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

The swing is one of our favorite spots, enjoy breezes from the Gulf while enjoying your morning coffee or afternoon cocktail. If you prefer a higher vantage point, we always have a rocker on the porch...sit back, relax and enjoy! We are located next to the beautiful Gulf of Mexico! you can walk to the beach and enjoy the water.
