Photos and Description of the Ocean Springs vacation yacht rental
1 Bedroom 1 Bath sleeps 4 maximum

Camellia Cottage is a pretty little tin roofed retreat, close to the beach, and downtown Ocean Springs. I live on the grounds as well, and can assist you with many special requests, like finding a good pet sitter or massage therapist.

Guests often comment, 'This is even nicer than the pictures,' and appreciate the unexpected, like a seasonal herb garden, and the privacy and comfort it offers. It is intimate, tastefully decorated and geared for your comfort.

While the cottage has welcomed vacationers, business managers, and snowbirds, it has a particular appeal to couples who come here to celebrate life events, like anniversaries, birthdays, and even an engagement.

If you read the guests comments and feel this is a good fit for your needs, please contact me, and be my guest!

About Jeannie B. Bright (owner)

I spent years being on the road as an international flight attendant, and living in big cities. I feel like it gave me a P.H.D. in 'Life' but grew tired of leaving home, and constantly being uprooted. My brother kept insisting I would love it here, in Ocean Springs, and would fit in well with the abundant art and easy lifestyle. He was right. Now, there isn't any place I would rather live, and my little herd of dogs and cats agree!

Jeannie B. Bright (owner) purchased this yacht in 2005
Why Jeannie B. Bright (owner) chose Ocean Springs

The FOR SALE sign was still warm in the ground when I first

laid eyes on the little cottage called Camellia Hill ( my house) with the Live Oaks spreading giant arms and Camellias welcoming me in. As I drove back home to Atlanta the next day

I couldn't stop saying, 'I just bought a house. How did I just buy a house!' I gave up packing suitcases, big city life and moved to the Gulf Coast and I have never looked back. As another bonus, the old garage could and would be converted into a guest house. Voila...the genesis of 'Camellia Cottage' and a deep love affair.

What makes this yacht unique

While the cottage has welcomed vacationers, business managers, and snowbirds, it has a particular appeal to couples who come here to celebrate life events, like anniversaries, birthdays, and even an engagement.

The cottage is nestled in among ancient live oaks, magnolias and beautiful winter blooming camellias. If you are lucky, you might catch a tree frog serenade, or hear the rhythm of the rain on the tin roof, while sinking into the memory foam bed in the sleeping loft. If you read the guests comments and feel this is a good fit for your needs, please contact me, and be my guest!

Jeannie,
Thank you so much for your true hospitality! After nearly 8 hours of of driving it was beyond frustrating to find
that the house we had reserved was far from being ready for our arrival. We were exhausted and at the end of our rope. Then miracle of miracles there your were and this most amazing cottage. You have taken us in at the last moment and been so kind and gracious. And the cottage, beautiful beyond words...everything we could ask for and more!!!
A millon thanks!!! A perfect hostess and the most amazing cottage ever. We will be staying here each and every time.
Thanks!!

Ms. Bright,
Thank you so much for all your hospitality. This weekend will be one that we will remember and cherish for the rest of our lives. Everything was beautiful and I doubt we could have enjoyed ourselves any more. We're thrilled that we could be the first engagement you've had at Camellia Cottage. We hope that it was as exciting for you as it has been for us. We look forward to to a marriage of love and compassion and we will always remember that Camellia Cottage was the place where we officially stated our lives together!

Jeannie, what a delight it was to stay in your sweet cottage! You were the perfect hostess, and the cottage was centrally located for us to see all our family on the whirlwind trip to introduce our son to them all. When we left, our son said that YOU were one of the people he was going to miss! :-) Thanks again for the hospitality, and we will be recommending your cottage to all we know that travel down your way.

Owner's Response: Thank you so much my dear Tennessee guests. I hope to have the pleasure of seeing
ALL of you again. George is definately on my BFF list, and his generous sharing of his favorite Mardi Gras beads I treasure. Many thanks! Jeannie B.
