Happy Place
I stayed at this house three weeks and absolutely loved it. The house was a perfect fit for me. The laidback atmosphere of Gulfport was very relaxing. Communication with the host was excellent and he accommodated a change in my travel dates with ease. Highly recommended!!
A beautiful Craftsman home with so much charming character! It was so nice to do our laundry. The exposed brick and large porch were so cool! We cant wait to come back

Adorable house exactly as listed
Everything about our stay at this cozy old house was great. The owners did a great job updating the house for modern comfort while keeping the old aesthetics and feel throughout. Location was great for getting everywhere throughout the Gulfport / Biloxi area. We rented this house for a short trip with my young sons and it was perfect. Will was very attentive and the check in and check out process was simple and easy. We would definitely rent this home again.

Great spot for a vacation
We couldn’t have picked a better spot for our honeymoon!
Settled in a lovely little neighborhood in Gulfport, this beautiful and lovingly restored home is close to the beach, casinos, many wonderful restaurants and convenient fast food. We also found it a very safe stay being so close to the police station.
The property is well kept, manicured and has a superb backyard with just enough privacy. Bamboo thickets provide a sense of solitude while they house many little birds that we just loved listening to. The porch is the perfect size to grill and chill on, and the provided outdoor furniture was comfortable.
You’ll find new appliances, furniture, fixtures and bedding throughout.
The word luxury comes to mind.
You’ll also find all the amenities of home. Thoughtfully provided and placed.
A fully stocked kitchen we were able to prepare a lovely meal in, a roku tv you can login to your favorite streaming services with, a large, deep set couch you can just melt into, beautiful master suite bathroom with amazing water pressure, perfect die tub, and a hot water heater that just doesn’t quit.
Natural light throughout and beautiful well placed lighting fixtures means we never felt cooped up, even on our days in.
A lovely little laundry house just a few steps from the back door, with its very own AC unit provided various accoutrements you’d need to do your laundry, as well as beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, and even a sandcastle kit!
Further inside the home you’ll find central AC. Awesome climate control.
Architecturally sound and pleasing to the eye, this home is lovely inside and out.
Beautifully maintained wood floors throughout, with lush and functional rugs placed in the bedrooms, living room and hall.
And CLEAN. The housekeeper and owners have gone above and beyond in that measure. Everything down to the wineglasses and spoons were spotless.
Motion sensor lights and Ring cameras on the properly insure you feel safe and never have to come from the driveway to either door in the dark.
For all Gulfport had to offer, we honestly found ourselves wanting to come back here to regroup and relax.

Best kept secret but I’ll share it with you! (Don’t tell anyone else)
This property is absolutely amazing and is conveniently located near everything. From your first step into the front door you will know that you’re home. Rich wood floors, bathroom finishes a spa would envy, huge dining room for family gatherings, every detail is perfectly cared for.
This property will have you wishing it was your home and your actual home was the rental. But remember… let’s keep this our little secret :)
