This was our second time staying at this property. The house is beautiful and historic, yet still cozy. It was very clean. The beds and pillows are very comfortable. The pool is very nice and private. It is a very short golf cart ride to the beach, as well as Old Town BSL. Golf carts can be rented from the owners and are located at the house for a very reasonable price. The owner (Mary Ellen) is extremely helpful and accommodating. Overall, my family and I have had two wonderful and relaxing vacations at this house and will definitely be returning in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay at the house in Bay St Louis, Ms. Enjoyed the nostalgia of the place. Neighbor was nice and a close walk to the beach. My mistake, thought the pool was heated. Mary Ellen was just a phone call away to answer any questions about the house. Only thing that caught us off guard was using the oven it cause the smoke alarm in dinning area to go off. We opened door leading out to the screened in porch and that helped a lot. It was located to high on the wall in dinning area for us to reach it. Over all very nice place and we enjoyed our stay.

Such an adorable, historic little house in a quiet neighborhood of Bay St Louis. Had everything we needed PLUS a swimming pool (bonus!). Beds were very comfortable furnishings were very beautiful and cozy. Huge front porch with rocking chairs and lots of great amenities available (bicycles, golf carts for rent… and lots of games and books inside too!). Great communication with the owner and responded promptly to all our queries. Just an overall great time and place!

The home was very charming and had lots of character. We had 2 adults and three kids ages 6-17yrs old and had plenty of space. Short walk to the beach area and the golf cart available to rent was a huge plus. We enjoyed rides into town on the golf cart to have a meal and enjoy all the great shops around Bay St. Louis. The pool was a huge plus. Mrs Mary was great and always a phone call away. We will be back!
