Firepit; gated courtyard; walk everywhere

Immerse yourself in downtown Ocean Springs at the Porch on Government Street. Newly renovated, this warm and inviting one bedroom one bathroom cottage allows a perfect retreat romantic enough for a couple ready to enjoy the night life, walks by the beach, or downtown yet comfortable enough to accommodate a family of four looking to experience the many parades and other family-friendly entertainment within walking distance. 

The Porch is centrally located for quick walking access to the beach, shopping, dining, festivals, and galleries. The Live Oak Suite consists of 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, a full kitchen , spacious walk-in shower, and in-suite laundry. The suite also features a separate living room which includes a full-sized futon sofa sleeper. Our kitchen  includes such amenities as a toaster oven/air fryer, Keurig coffee maker, four burner stove top with oven , refrigerator with freezer. There is also an ice maker ,electric grill on site and large outdoor dining area that seats twelve, along with two fire pits in our shared courtyard area for use during your stay. We even healing chakra crystals to each cottage. 





We offer ample off street parking for our guests, free WiFi and organic spa products. Sound machines and blackout curtains are provided for an even deeper sleep.  All king beds are enveloped in sanitary mattress covers and all pillows have zipped protectors on them. We also are a carpet free establishment and all area rugs are washable!  





We have the most wonderful family that has lovingly cared for the cottages for many years and are industrial cleaners. This means we not only clean all units using the most sanitary measures , but deep cleanings and maintenance come with the whole package. 





The spacious bathroom offers a large walk in shower , smart mirrors with lighted and fog technology , spa robes and high end organic spa products. 





Don't forget to tag us with your photo in front of our memory wall, and remember... Magic happens on the Porch! 





Don't forget to ask about our add-on packages for firewood and Smores kits (including electric tabletop option ) and everything you need to make firepit memories !

*There are a total of four one bedroom / one bathroom cottages on site and completely fenced in, which make it the perfect venue  for larger corporate groups, large families or reunions. All cottages reserved together can accommodate up to 16 guests. 





The Porch was dreamed up by a former Publicist who took the best of her travels to New York, Miami and Los Angeles and blended chic amenities of the best hotels and paired them into cozy southern cottages. You will find magical touches infused at our properties such as bistro lights, in room fireplaces and outdoor firepits. A lighted memory wall for photo ops and nooks hidden throughout to invoke the imagination. Magic truly happens at the Porch!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This was a great place to stay! Cute clean and well decorated suite/cottage. Great communication with host! Even added an extra day so we could enjoy the festival. HIGHLY recommend. My ONLY recommendation would be to possibly upgrade the mattress. Still a 5* rating!
