IMMEDIATE AREA
Walk 1.5 blocks to the beach with bath house, fire pit, and fishing pier. Located in the historic Depot District (future Amtrak station) with The Blind Tiger Butcher & Seafood Market, Lagarde's Fine Wines...plus a pet store, pizza/draft beer place, boutique clothing shop and Pilates studio. Or just walk around the Depot District park to see the duck pond. Catch a play at the Bay St. Louis Theatre or a concert at 100 Men Hall. Close enough to walk to the big downtown restaurants/bars, but far enough where they won't keep you awake at night...that's why we love this area!

BSL CITY PROPER
The downtown area is just a few short blocks away. Rent a golf cart to get back and forth or on a nice day it's an easy short 10-minute walk to the antique shops and boutiques on Main Street.

RECAP
Incredible area, cute little old standalone home but new rental. We look forward to hosting you at the beach with a private historic cottage that brings all the comforts of home.

Dreamy Vacation Home
This is the first time that the VRBO home was so much better than the listing! This beautiful home was so much more than we imagined! Located in a quaint, historical neighborhood close to the beach, restaurants and coffee shops and boutiques. The property has a beautifully landscaped yard with wildflowers and outdoor seating vignettes. Our favorite was the porch swing which was perfect for sipping cocktails after a wonderful day at the beach. A lot of care was taken to make this home so wonderful. The unique and beautiful furnishings, the decor, the incredibly comfy beds and top quality linens, fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms made for the most comfortable stay. We took advantage of the beach supplies the property owner provided. Beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, fishing poles and beach towels are all available to use. We feel so fortunate to have found this dreamy home and it will be our only place we will stay when we visit the beautiful Mississippi Gulf Coast!

Perfect Girls' Getaway!
This house was such a gem! We walked downtown to dinner, stayed up late talking and laughing catching up with each other, and just relaxed! It was so peaceful and enjoyable. The decor has inspired each of us girls to add fun decor to our homes. Greg and Jess were very helpful with any question we had about the home. Love this place and the hosts!

Amazing house, great hosts, and a fun area for a quick getaway!
My wife and I were looking for a quick weekend getaway from NOLA in Bay St. Louis and found this property - we couldn't be happier with our stay. The home is beautiful and thoughtfully put together with all the amenities you need and plenty of space. Recently renovated, the bedrooms were very comfy and the bathrooms were modern and clean. There is a large backyard to hang out in, that my two year old had a great time exploring, and a swing on the front porch which was perfect for enjoying the coastal air and reading a book. Our favorite part though was the expansive kitchen with plenty of room to cook, hang out, and enjoy a good meal.The house is really close to all the fun of downtown Bay St Louis. We went to the Mockingbird cafe for coffee (so good) and bought some records at the local record store. Luckily the house also had a record player which was a nice touch! We will definitely be going back to stay again. The hosts were very responsive and provided details every step of the way from check-in/check-out to the history of the home and tons of great suggestions on things to do in the area. It's also a quick 25 min drive to the Children's Discovery Center and the Train/Lego Museum in Gulfport which I highly recommend if you have kids!

A spectacular mix of a historic home with modern conveniences
A magnificent eclectic mix of an historic home with modern conveniences. The house is loaded with personality, from the creak of hundred year old floors, to the preserved transoms above every window, it truly is a step back in time. Make certain to be in the front of the house to soak in the morning light or sit on the front porch during the sunrise. After arrival we found the turntable in the living room and put on a copy of Simon and Garfunkel. What a great way to start some R and R. At night we were able to transition from the nostalgia of vinyl to the modern convenience of streaming some great shows in the living room. My wife and I knew we chose the right house. Throughout the house is a wide variety of local and distant art. Have fun spotting the themes. We counted 21 parrots and a clear connection with New Orleans and Hawaii. The location is wonderful with a short walk to the beach or great casual meals. The people of Bay St Louis were constantly warm and friendly. Fortunately for us this home is only an hour away but it feels so much further. We have decided to make a trip to Bay Saint Louis an annual event and this is where we will stay.

Anniversary / early Christmas celebration
We stayed here Dec.14-18 to celebrate our 25th anniversary and couldn't have been more pleased with our accommodations. We love historic homes, and this recently renovated home was beautiful. Great location and Jessica and Greg are so nice and friendly. The floors, the home and all the wonderful, eclectic decor were fabulous. And needless to say, the home was immaculate! I wish i had that kitchen in my house. Great comfortable beds, plenty of room and all the amenities you could possibly think of right down to the First Aid kit in the primary bath. And who doesn't love a claw foot tub? We had a wonderful time and definitely hope to return some day. You can certainly feel the hard work and love that Jessica and Greg put into this historic home!
