Photos and Description of the Gulfport vacation cottage rental
Cottage, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6-8)

Bring your children and pets to enjoy your vacation at our lovely spacious Whispering Sands Cottage. Watch the sunrise on the Gulf of Mexico from the deck or walk 2 blocks to the beach for a panoramic view from the fishing pier.

This gulf view cottage was built in 2008 after Hurricane Katrina destroyed the original house in August 2005.

The decor of this cottage will make you feel right at home. The Master bedroom has a poster bed and it's own private bath. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the 3rd bedroom has 2 twin beds. The couch folds out for an additional queen bed. All bedrooms have TVs and luxury linens.

This cottage has a large living room and dining area with flat screen TV. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your cooking needs. The deck has a gas grill and overlooks the park with a view of the water.

The cottage is easily accessible with 4 entry steps. There are grab bars in the main bath and comfort hight commodes.

Bring up to 2 pets free and walk them in the park across the street which features walking paths, children's playground equipment and a splash pad water feature to cool off on those hot summer days. If you want to exercise the community center is across the street to the north with a full fitness center open to the public.

We have many championship golf courses on the coast. There are 11 casinos (Island View Casino is 3 blocks away), Charter fishing boats, Schooner sailings, Great restaurants and Oyster Bars, or take the Ship Island Excursion Boat and enjoy the white sand beaches an crystal clear waters of the barrier islands.

Children will love the park with the splash pad and the beach, or take them to the Lynn Meadows Discovery Center, Gulf Islands Water Park, The Center for Marine Education and Research, or on the Shrimp Boat Excursion where dolphins jump along side the boat most days.

If you want to take a day trip New Orleans is just 80 miles away. Take the scenic route (Hwy 90) and see the Old Fort and nature up close ( you might just see an alligator in the road).

This is a very clean home. Well stocked and in a great location. We enjoyed meeting the owners who gave us tips on fun things to do. This place is great for travel with children as there is a huge park 2 Minutes away. Ice cream truck made its rounds and brought back old memories. Will definitely be back! Thanks so much for the wonderful vacation!

Snowbirds from Michigan

5 of 5
Submitted: April 4, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
This is a lovely home. My dog and I spent the last 6 weeks as snowbirds enjoying the mild winter. The park is just across the street to walk my dog and the beach is only 2 blocks away. The new bathrooms are beautifully remodeled with marble and tile. The corner whirlpool tub was great for relaxing in. I am a earily riser and drinking my morning coffee and being able to watch the water and the sun come up, either from the deck or the dining area was my favorite time of the day. The house is very clean and is well equipped with everything I needed. The owners were very nice and even brought us old towels to give my dog a bath with. I stayed here for 6 weeks in 2012 and I plan on coming back next year.

Wonderful home!

Pictures on website really do not do this house justice. We absolutely loved our time here. It is a very nice, new home. Kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, utensils, & cookware. Gulfport is also a very nice town with lots to do. Beaches are pretty but water is shallow for a long way out. This is a small factor though when everything else is so great. I highly recommend Gulfport, and especially recommend this house!

We were supposed to get here Friday, the 29th, but due to my work we were not able to get here until Saturday, The pictures do not do it justice. It is spacious and decorated so nice. The owners were very nice to deal with. I just can't say enough nice things about it. I wish I had rented this place the entire week that we were here instead of only 2 nights and then going to the condo. Next time, I will stay here the entire time. Thanks for making it so nice.

We had an amazing time at the Whispering Sands Cottage! The house is absolutely beautiful! It is clean and very tastefully decorated. The owners have thought of everything from a fully equipped kitchen to any kind of extra supplies you may have forgotten to bring. We had the priveledge of meeting the owners of the property and they were extremely welcoming and friendly. They even went out of their way to leave me a thoughtful card to congratulate me on my recent graduation, as well as several other thoughtful amenities. The location is perfect for everyone, and especially if you have children. There is an awesome park with splash pad right across the street where adults can relax and picnic in the shade while the kids play and run throught the water sprinklers. You are within walking distance of the beach, and within just a few miles of casinos, resteraunts, water excurtions, and live entertainment. I have a small dog that traveled with us and it was nice to stay somewhere that welcomed pets as well. I will definately try to book this property the next time we plan a trip to Gulfport, and would highly recommend it to friends and relatives.

Weekend getaway

My wife had to come stay for the weekend and we needed to bring our 2 y/o boxer who is like our baby! Mrs Nancy was very kind and worked with me to ensure we were taken care of! The cottage was very beautiful completely redone in the inside! Couldn't have asked for a more beautiful place to stay for the money! Would most definitely recommend to anyone!

Great Stay!

My husband and I rented this property for a long Easter weekend. The property was even better than in the photos! The inside was spacious, and had three well-appointed bedrooms with really nice linens. The bathrooms were also really nicely appointed, and had all the amenities you need ... hairdryer, soap, etc. Kitchen was also spacious and had everything you needed to make a meal. Our favorite part? The deck .... it had a table and chairs, gas BBQ (hurray for easy cooking!) and a GREAT ocean view (thanks to Katrina :( ). The owners have also thoughtfully installed a long clip on leash so your pet can sit outside with you. It is longer walking distance to the downtown area, short walking distance to a casino with restaurants, and across the road from the beach. Easy daytrips away to everything else, and a grocery store is closeby in Long Beach. Owners were very pleasant to work with and greeted us making us feel welcome (they also had local tourist materials in the house too). Would definitely stay here again! Thanks!
