Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi
Only a half mile walk to the beach, and situated across from St. Stanislaus athletic fields. Lovely art galleries, gift stores, antique stores, restaurants and bars are plentiful. The large garden is fenced and safe for dogs. We have recently added a sizable rock garden in the adjoining lot. There is a saltwater pool with ample comfortable lounging, and seating surrounding it. The cottage is circa 1880's and was renovated in 2016 , it is approximately 1,100 sf. The bathroom is modern with a tub and shower. In 2018 we completed the addition of another bathroom, with stand up shower. Charming wrap around side porch (perfect for reading) and catching a breeze. Rooms are light and bright with high ceilings. Washer and dryer in home. The property has four majestic oaks, and many birds abound. The parking area is off street and is a very large gravelled space. The annex to the cottage is not available for rent, and will be unoccupied during your stay. The property has string lights which illuminate the space and add wonderful ambience.
This is the second time I stayed at this property. I had a fabulous time. Love the house, yard and the town. Gillie (Westie) loved it too! The pool is perfect. I enjoyed just hanging out in the very private back yard that is huge. Bird watching and tossing the ball for Gillie kept me as busy as I wanted to be. Thanks
The cottage was everything that was stayed, our two Aussies loved chasing the squirrels and sunning on deck. The pool was great. Definitely would love to come back!
Loved the house. The additions to the old house flow and increase the space nicely. Updated amenities and decor were very nice. The backyard and pool fantastic. The side yard with the trees and gravel made for a quiet, cool relaxing setting. It was 97 degrees most days and we spent a lot of time in the pool.
We loved our stay at this house! We’ve been to Bay St. Louis many times, and this place is definitely one of our favs. The layout was great, full kitchen, living room space, two bathrooms, and wonderful sleeping areas. The backyard though is the very best feature! Absolutely fantastic landscaping, seating, and an exactly perfect size pool for the two of us. Loved this place so much. We had our two furry kids with us, as well, and they enjoyed sniffing around the backyard and hanging out.
The house is really great I have no complaints big yard swimming pool totally furnished couldn't ask for anything else only wish I could have stayed longer
My wife, our Golden Doodle, and I much enjoyed our week long stay in BSL. The highlight of our stay was the home which we rented. Our hosts were wonderful, supportive, helpful, and wanting to make our stay perfect. We were very comfortable. We loved the nostalgia of the train sounds daily off in the distance as we sat out on the porch where there was always a coastal breeze. The pool was a perfect spot. It is very private. The fenced in yard was truly just a beautiful well groomed and developed garden. The home was perfect for us. It was very comfortable with many unmentioned amenities. The bed was so comfortable that after sleeping in it two days we drove to New Orleans and purchased a new mattress of the same type. There was great TV reception. BSL is a special place. Eating is varied and all good. The quaint shops were fun. And of course the Gulf and beaches are right at hand. The beaches were beautiful white sand and well groomed. Everything is dog friendly and our Maggie had a great time especially at the beach. Many people get around in golf carts. The carts are rentable and on our next trip we will rent one for a week. This was our first VRBO experience and it was perfect and inviting us to return. We will be back. Thanks to our hosts for everything. Lester and Teri Jonesboro, AR
We truly enjoyed staying at this lovely home. The back yard and side yard are gorgeous!! The pool was clean and very enjoyable! The kitchen is fully stocked with all appliances and cookware/utensils. The home is in a convenient location, close to restaurants and shops. Julia responded very quickly to our messages and was a joy to work with. We highly recommend this home and would definitely stay there again!
The good - this property really works well for travelers with dogs. The yard is beautiful and fully fenced. The pool is cute with lots of outdoor seating. My dog loved exploring for the short 7 hours we were on the property. The bad - we were recovering from COVID and our lungs were sensitive. There was a pervasive smell on the interior - a chemical smell and a smell that I identify as cigarette smoke and some sort of strong cleaning agent. By midnight, we were both coughing (again, recovering from COVID) to the point where we couldn't sleep (we were fine outside and at home, it was definitely something inside the cottage). We decided to pack up and drive all night to go home. I wasn't going to leave a review at all but it was my communication with the owner that was so disappointing that led me to write this review. I emailed to explain why we left at 1:00 in the morning, after less than a day. I was not asking for a refund. The owner was very dismissive of my concerns and basically said no one has ever smoked on this property and that their maintenance person didn't smell anything. Maybe, but they could have been kinder in their response. I've rented a LOT of VRBOs over the years and unfortunately this one was not a good fit.
Our vacation dreams were simple: -fabulous pool -must love dogs This place exceeded expectations on both. My husband, myself, and our XL lap dog needed to get away and wanted a place that had it all so we would never have to leave if we didnt want to. The house was adorable and the yard felt like a mini wildlife sanctuary. We definitely enjoyed ourselves!
Am looking forward to going back. Loved it! Charming, and comfortable. Gilligan my dog loved it too. Hated to leave. Will be back next year
