About this cottage rental
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.

We loved the pool to cool off on humid summer days and the location was perfect to walk to some restaurants and attractions. Loved the live music at the depot one night and the dog-friendly yard and town!

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

We were there for Cruisin the Coast, I asked property owner if there was room for a truck and trailer and she said yes there was. When we got there, there was room for a truck and an unhooked trailer but no room for a classic car. We had to park between a motorhome and their trailer on another piece of property. Frigerator and freezer were filled with owners food and no ice maker. They also forget to mention that there is a railroad track less then a block away and that you can hear the train loud and clear throughout the day and night.

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.

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.

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!

Not great for us but great for the dog.
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.

Backyard Oasis
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!

Lovely Stay in BSL
We have stayed several times and LOVE the cottage! Rick & Julia go out of their way to ensure a great experience! It was the hubby’s birthday & they even got bakery recommendations for me! It was too cool for the pool but we enjoyed the yard and of course my GSD’s enjoyed the squirrels! Can’t wait until next time!

Relaxing Getaway
I believe this is our 4th stay and by far our favorite BSL getaway choice. We love the house, pool and our 2 GSDS love the yard. Hopefully we can return soon.

Nice family and pet friendly rental
The house was very clean, well stocked with everything you would need. It was nice to have pool to relax in or come back from beach to cool off. Dogs loved the yard and beach. We loved the fenced yard and doggy door so the dogs can come and go as needed. Doggy bags available all around the yard to keep up with the doggy messes
Just enough room for me and my two adult daughters. Beach is close but we choose the 2 beaches further down the road due to challenge of getting all your things through 3 wires and cement barrier wall with 8 steps. Has white soft sand and overall pretty clean. Water orange due to being so close to Mississippi river can walk out quite a ways and still be waist deep. Would make sure you take bug repellent mosquitoes. nats and flies are bad. stay was very relaxing and we enjoyed our stay it was like being in our own home. Train tracks close by but got use to it going by frequently after a few days did not keep us up or wake us up at night. The stay was very relaxing and we enjoyed our stay it was like being in our own home. The owner always got back with an answer within a few hours if I had a question. I would recommend renting the house it is everything that was described plus more.

Amazing Cottage!
Love, love, love this Beautiful Cottage! Immaculate! Clean and beautifully decorated! The neighborhood was so quiet and peaceful. The pool was lovely and so inviting! So nice to have coffee by the pool and bird watch in the mornings. The beach is an easy walk down the road, and Old Town just minutes away! Check in was so easy, and Rick, the owner, was ready and waiting to field any and all questions I had! Super friendly and helpful! Can’t wait to get back to my Sweet Little Cottage! Don’t miss out on this one, such a Gem! Thanks again, Rick and Julia!♥️

This is my second time visiting BSL during March. The weather was very mild and cooperative again . We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the 418 Bookter st cottage.. it was very charming, conveniently located and perfect for us and our fur baby. Julia and Rick couldn’t have been nicer hosts!

Super clean and comfortable in a great location!!
When we walked into the house, we said to each other., “Yeah, this is going to be perfect!!” The house is just the right size for a couple with their large dog (us). It was absolutely immaculate and well maintained. We loved sitting in the back yard and just enjoyed the warmer weather. We’d walk to the beach or to Old Town; it was very convenient. We tend to cook at home, and the kitchen was well equipped for us to do that. There is also a great fenced in yard for our dog to roam about. All in all, a very relaxing and positive experience!

A relaxing fun getaway
We really enjoyed our stay, especially the dog friendliness of the property. The pool is really nice and so is the backyard landscaping and mature trees. We loved being able to observe the birds at the backyard feeders. The Bay St Louis beaches are close by too. We hope to return for a second visit.

This is a lovely cottage in Bay St. Louis. The owner’s creative touches are apparent throughout the home and yard. This property has anything a guest might need and is much nicer than many rental properties. It was perfect for our stay with our dogs.

Second time to stay!
I love this little cottage and the fact that it’s dog friendly. It’s so hard to find places to stay where you are allowed to bring your pets. Our pets are family to us and go with us every where we go which includes vacation. Thank you for allowing them, we are looking forward to our next visit!

UNFORGETTABLE WITH MY DAUGHTER AND DOGS!
My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this cottage. It was very clean, comfortable, and had everything we could possibly have needed. This was the first time taking our dogs on vacation and they absolutely adored the trip! It was very relaxing. We DID NOT want to leave. We are hoping to book the same property next year!

Bay St. Louis at its BEST!
We had a great stay!! The cottage is clean and spacious and very comfortable & well decorated. Very pet friendly place with a fenced yard and plenty of room to play. Walking distance to the beach and when you are tired of that you have your own pool to relax and enjoy. Would highly recommend ! Great location for day trips to New Orleans or Alabama.
