Short stop on our Southern road trip

We had heard great things about Ocean Springs, and had an opportunity to stay here for 2 nights. The place was great for a couple with a small dog. Lots of areas to walk, and easy access to downtown! Nice location!

Lovely bungalow

Great location! Walking distance to East Beach and Davis Bayou Natural Area. Ocean Springs is a cute little town that had everything we wanted for a short getaway. Good restaurants and shopping, and plenty of beach and nature. The bungalow was so cute and had everything we needed for our stay.

Bayou Bungalow . Ocean Springs

Loved the bungalow! It was the perfect location for taking walks, visiting the Davis National Bayou and a short, short drive to the East, Front and Biloxi Beaches! Had a great time. The spacious and well equipped bungalow is in a quiet location with an amazing deck! If you like nature, this bungalow is for you! Love it!

Perfect artist retreat

We had a lovely time enjoying all the natural light in this house. It’s situated in a peaceful area right by the national park. The back deck is perfect for relaxing. A red cardinal and butterflies came to visit us daily. The host was super gracious about our pets and responsive. We loved learning about Carroll Ishee and the impact he has left on the art and culture of Ocean Springs. Every detail of this place was a joy- down to the Pendleton mugs and blankets!

Lovely home tucked in lush surroundings

This is one of the nicest VRBO rentals we have stayed in. It's a great, simple design with everything you need to relax indoors and outside on the big covered deck overlooking bamboo plantings. It's very private though located in a traditional neighborhood. Close to East Beach. Everything you might need is provided. Look forward to returning.

Peaceful retreat

We spent a week at this charming bungalow. It was just as pictured and very clean. The bedroom and living/dining room are spacious and light. The furnishings are comfortable and there is ample storage in all the rooms for an extended stay. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and is just a short drive to the beach and the downtown shops and restaurants. Since it is nestled into a wooded lot it doesn’t even feel like you’re in a residential area. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to the birds and watching the squirrels. It was a very peaceful and relaxing place to stay.

Good for a couple

It’s a great little bungalow for a couple. We had a teenager with us and there wasn’t really a place for him to sleep or extra linens. But it’s a cute place. We loved the back porch. We would come back again without any kids.

Quiet and peaceful

We had a fantastic time here celebrating our anniversary together with our little one. The hosts were top notch. On our stay we talked about how cool it would be to build something like it for our own. The area is lively with no shortage of things to do. We just were short on time. We will most certainly be back.
