A warm 3 bedroom, two bath home framed under a canopy of massive live oaks

Our three bedroom two bath home located deep in old town Bay Saint Louis sits under a canopy of historic oak trees. Only a three minute walk to an expansive beach. Wireless internet, cable, hardwood floors, tile bathrooms, and fully stocked kitchen make this home an easy get-away adventure.

Whether you are looking to host a craw fish boil or game of football in the expansive backyard, the large acreage (nearly an acre) will give you plenty of space to unwind.

Great family time!

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Apr 30, 2013
  • Stayed: Apr 2013
My family recently vacationed in this home and we loved every minute of it. The owners were only a phone call away so if any issues come up, they can be solved quickly.

The kids enjoyed the kayaks and biking riding downtown. Although the home is not super close to downtown shops by foot, it is a quick bike ride away. The traffic is very light so you will not have to worry about many cars. The way Bay St Louis has been updated since the storm, it is difficult to find a place close to downtown and the beach. I feel this house was the best pick for both.

The highlights of our trip were the bikes, kayaks, patio and kitchen. Thanks for a wonderful vacation and we look forward to renting this house in the fall.

spotless, cozy, fantastic backyard, close to beach

  • Submitted: Apr 12, 2013
  • Stayed: Apr 2013
We stayed 5 nights in the house with 6 children and 2 adults. Three bedrooms and 2 big bathrooms with a dining/living room in the center gave us enough space. It was spotless clean, decorated very tastefully and had everything you need (fluffy towels, kitchen utensils etc.). The backyard is fantastic. It's fenced in and has 3 gigantic oak trees with a swing from a high branch. The walk to the beach takes 4-5 minutes - a stroll enlong a paved side road with old oak trees. The beach was fantastic: white sand, the water shallow but clean, warm enough to have a swim. Kayaks and bikes at the house as described.
1 hour drive to New Orleans, 20 minutes along the beach highway to Biloxi. We had a wonderful stay and our children enjoyed the space around the house and the swing very much.
One thing to consider: the railroad is very close and you can hear the passing trains honk all the way through town (it was loud). Bring bug spray: there were tiny flies in the yard.

Wonderful stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay from the very beginning. The owner was very organized and sent us wonderful information about the property and the area. The house was perfect for us - two couples and five children. Each couple had their own room, and the kids loved the bunk room. We were sad to leave!

family time on easy street

The home is comfortable and very clean and inviting.
My family gathered there and invited local family and friends over to visit and play.
The large grand room and kitchen/dining areas open to the yards on both sides is perfect The ancient oak trees in the backyard bless the place in hard to define ways. Plus the swing enchanted my grandson for many hours.
The beach is less than 5 minutes away. And a permit for a bonfire on the beach allowed us to have a birthday gathering there.
Bay St Louis is charming, walkable and sweet, working hard and persistently.
I highly recommend this place

From the second my family and I walked in the door we felt right at home. The house is updated and very clean. Everything we needed was available.....ie towels, kitchen gadgets, beach toys. We loved how close we were to the beach, restaurants and local shops. This was our first visit to the Gulf Coast and we can't wait to return to this great little gem!
