Aunt Sandy's Place-<br>Peaceful, Tranquil, Relaxing

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful cottage, perfectly located near everything. This hidden gem is less than 5 minutes from East Beach and may be the best kept secret in town. Nestled on a beautifully wooded lot directly in the heart of town, this home features plenty of space for a family of 6. Yet it's cozy enough for a simple getaway for 2. Or perhaps you're looking for that unique workspace that takes you far from work. Either way, Aunt Sandy's Place is YOUR place to quietly escape!

A gravel driveway takes you to a pristine spot just behind the trees. There you’ll find a lovely 2 bedroom home with an open floor plan that feels so much bigger. The spacious kitchen and family room are intelligently designed with comfort in mind. But the wraparound porch is the gem of it all. It’s where you’ll have your coffee in the morning and a relaxing glass of wine at night.

Guests will have full access of everything. This includes all pots and pans, cookware, dishes, silverware, cups, wine glasses, everything. There’s even an electric wine opener for you to enjoy. After all, you’re on vacation. No need to strain your hands opening bottles.

I am always available during your stay. Whether it be directions to a restaurant that you’ve heard about or advice on where to find the best crawfish, a quick message to me will be answered with a timely response. We love our city and we love sharing it with our guests.

This home is located at the end of a quiet dead end street. In fact, you wouldn’t even know it was there if not for the mailbox marking the driveway. The property backs up to beautiful Davis Bayous Area Gulf Islands National Seashore.

Parking is available right outside your front door. You may also choose to get around via a street legal golf cart that can be rented in downtown Ocean Springs. Uber is also available should you choose not to drive.

This property offers self check in by way of a lock code. So you’ll be able to access our home at your convenience. Late check ins are not an issue.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Great weekend retreat
Our family of five really enjoyed our stay. The beds were very comfortable and we slept well. The cottage has a very secluded feel and was very quiet. The owner was very attentive to our needs and house is convenient to a nice public beach and to the old downtown district. Highly recommend this great property!

Aunt Sandy’s
What a wonderful home. We enjoyed our stay immensely. We loved sitting on front porch and watching the birds and the squirrels play in the trees. We saw many Gulf Coast Turtles out front and enjoyed watching them walk by the porch. We had an issue with the house but Kenny dealt with it immediately and we were not inconvenienced. Kenny responded quickly to any emails and was always pleasant. Highly recommended this property to anyone going to Ocean Springs. Beach short drive away as is many great restaurants.

Amazing ocean springs getaway
Can’t say enough positive about this place. In a secluded wooded area but still very close to all the things to do, and in a safe neighborhood. House was immaculate. Will definitely be staying again.
