This is a sweet 1930's cottage that has been lovingly updated while leaving its charm. The location is ideal for a family vacation in Ocean Springs. The beach and harbor are within walking distance. There is a beautiful pathway on the beach passing the Ft. Maurepas Park and fishing pier. In season the shrimp boats sell their catch to the public, and charter boats are available. There is another Children's' Park 3 blocks from the cottage, and a soccer field and walking track only a block away. The cottage is equipped with everything you'll need for a pleasant stay of a weekend, week or longer. Check with us about extended stays.

Downtown Ocean Springs is a pleasant walk of 3 blocks and is full of restaurants, pubs, shops and art galleries. Or you might prefer to rent a golf cart or bicycle to cruise around town. Both are available near by. But, first and foremost, Ocean Springs is an old fashioned town with shops, restaurants, art galleries, banks, and churches. The Walter Anderson Museum and Shearwater Pottery are nationally known and acclaimed. This beautiful little town, with its tree shaded streets has been featured many times in travel magazines, and others such as Southern Living. Be sure to check the Ocean Springs Chamber of Commerce for its full schedule of festivals and other events.


In the event that you want more adult activities, the casinos in Biloxi are a short drive over the new Biloxi Bay bridge - also a popular walking route. Golf courses are available in Ocean Springs, as well as its neighboring cities.

    Russell Cottage is a charming cottage that quickly became our home away from home. We fell in love with the town and the people. We especially enjoyed the friendly staff at the Islander Dive Bar, touring the Walter Anderson Museum (take the time to use the headphones), and shopping at Realizations. The cottage is an easy walk to Front Beach and the harbors, as well as the shops and restaurants. The home is clean and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen. We enjoyed spending time in the fenced/private backyard, which was perfect for our dogs. We have already booked this cottage for next year and look forward to returning to Ocean Springs.

    Hi. This is an older home so be prepared for that. The showers are extremely low so plan on doing a mini-backbend. However, the house is as advertised and within walking distance to downtown. The beds have spring mattresses but were fairly comfortable. We brought our two dogs and were grateful the fenced in back yard. I only wish the grass had been mowed prior to arriving. I would stay here again! Enjoy.

    My two friends and I had the best time at the Russell Cottage for our recent girl’s trip. The cottage is located on a quiet street away from the railroad track but only a few blocks from the action in downtown Ocean Springs. We are all in our 60’s and had no problem walking from the cottage to all the restaurants, shops and bars. The cottage is very well maintained and was extremely clean for our visit. The beds were so comfortable and we had plenty of blankets and pillows. We didn’t cook in the kitchen but it was clean and well stocked. The living room is comfortable and set up perfectly for us to enjoy our visit together and do our gift exchange. I had a problem with my VRBO app on the day of check-in but was able to call VRBO Support who helped me get in touch with the host to answer my question. The host was so helpful and friendly and I enjoyed our conversation. Ocean Springs goes all out with Christmas decorations in December and the downtown area is just beautiful! My friends and I agreed that Russell Cottage would be our go-to lodging for future girl’s trips and my husband and I are planning to book and bring our pets in the spring. Excellent location for anyone interested in a stay near downtown Ocean Springs.

    We loved this cottage! The location to the downtown area was awesome. It was perfect for four people. We loved every aspect of this rental. There were plenty of brochures and lots of hand written instructions for different things. We had everything we needed from coffee to extra blankets and even an extra fan. The back yard is beautiful and private. We cannot wait to stay here again!

    This was a great place for my husband and me to stay while visiting Ocean Springs and Biloxi beach. It’s within walking distance to downtown Ocean Springs and less than 10 minutes’ drive to the beach. We thought the kitchen was well stocked with cooking gear, and the rooms were SPOTLESS! (And I’m very picky!) We liked the outdoor gear—The beach chairs and umbrella were perfect for the two of us. We will stay again if we’re in the area!
