About this property

Newly renovated beach cottage in Old Town has golf cart, big yard & pet friendly

Welcome to your southern beach oasis. Newly renovated 3 bedroom house is the perfect get away with excellent amenities.
Tastefully decorated with new furniture, it includes an equipped kitchen with new stainless steal appliances and all of the comforts of home. The three bedrooms include a king and two queen beds all with high end mattresses, luxury bedding and "Dacron" pillows for a comfortable night’s sleep.

*** Please note that the rental includes 4 total guests. We will allow up to 6 guests with permission from the owner. A fee of $50/guest will apply for those over 4 guests.

An open floor plan is perfectly designed to relax. Enjoy a family gathering or a friends retreat away from it all, with games like Monopoly and Yatzee to fill up an evening of fun . A short 10 minute walk (or 3 minute golf cart ride) will bring you to Old Town Bay St. Louis and to the dog friendly beach or jump on the golf cart included in the rental. It’s a comfortable home that is great for enjoying a "night in" especially with games like corn hole and board games to entertain your group.. A large backyard gives you plenty of space to stretch out and play with kids and dogs or to just kick back with friends and relax.

After a gorgeous day at the beach, return to your oasis and enjoy the delights of the full body massage chair to enhance your relaxing vacation. Plush hotel style cotton towels are an ultimate luxury for your refreshing bath. Other amenities include cable tv, wifi, and an in-home-filtered water system.

Cable TV's are also included in the living room and 2 of the 3 bedrooms.

The house is located in Old Town Bay Saint Louis and is just a short walk to the beach, but why not cruise in style like the locals on the 4-person electric golf cart that is included in each rental! This 2011 golf cart is road ready and is the perfect way to enjoy the old town restaurants, bars and shopping, or make a speedy trek to the beach which is just 3 short blocks away. A maximum of 4 people are allowed on the golf cart at a time.

Come down to enjoy the beach, this quaint town filled with great restaurants, bars and shopping, all while enjoying the comfort and amenities of this southern beach oasis.

***PLEASE READ CONCERNING GOLF CART.. You must submit a valid drivers license and proof of auto insurance for those guests that will be operating the golf cart in order to get lock box code to the golf cart keys. Please note that guests are renting the home and the golf cart is an amenity. Should their be issues with the golf cart during your stay, we will do everything we can to assist with making sure it is available for use. However, if it breaks and it is in need of repairs, guests will not have use of it.

*** If you are bringing your fur babies (dogs) to the house, we need to make sure that each one is:
1. They should be Up to date on shots and vaccinations-
This is important to make sure that the house is safe for all guests and their fur babies whom are staying. Puppies that are unvaccinationed should wait until they are up to date on shots before coming to stay.

2. Each dog has to be fixed-
This is important to keep animals from marking the furniture and rugs (especially male dogs). We only permit dogs that are fixed to stay in order for us to keep the house in top condition for those staying with and without fur babies.

3. Your Fur Baby must be house trained-
It is without question that your pups should be house trained… no animals are permitted who do any of their “dooty” inside.

4. No pets on the furniture-
The house is shared with those with and without fur babies. Please do not let your pet on the future, If not, a $50 cleaning fee will apply.

5. No extreme barkers please-
our house is in a residential neighborhood so if your dog barks a lot and might disturb our neighbors, this would be a good trip to leave them at your own home.

6. Please Don’t leave them alone at the house for long periods of time:
We have great dog sitters that can assist if you want to add a fun day trip to New Orleans, Gulfport, Ship Island or just take the day away from the pups. We are happy to pass on info for folks that can assist you with your long day plans away from the house to make sure your pups are getting the attention they need during the day.

7. Pet Fee-
There is a $50/per pet fee. This fee will be charged once booking is finalized.


Guest Access:
Renters will have access to the entire home, backyard, laundry room, front yard, driveway, etc.
We ask that guests limit the number of vehicles they park in the driveway and along our front property line to 3 total cars.

Host Interaction:
We are available to answer any questions that may arise during your stay. We also have a detailed guest book that should assist with most of your questions as well.

Other Things to Note:
We are laid-back and amenable to a variety of personalities and people. Our house is comfortable and created with a lot of love and space for you to unwind and a focus on your personal relaxation. However, please be respectful of our space, of our neighbors and of yourself.
We love dogs, so bring your little fur baby with you. The beaches in Hancock County are dog friendly. Let us know a bit about your fur baby when booking. There is a $50 per pet fee.

The massage chair is available to guests renting the property.

We have a modest cancellation policy. Inclement weather, airline cancellations, illness and other circumstances occur when we least expect them. Please consider investing in travel insurance.
Lastly, all guests are responsible for all covered losses during the reservation.
All guests are obligated to pay for damages or losses caused by such responsible guest.

COVID Safety Measures:
We are doing full disinfecting cleaning of the house prior to your visit. We are also requiring 24 hours between guests which is recommended to help stop the spread of Covid.
We are including these 24 hour "sit" times on our calendar and we are doing all we can to insure that your booking is accurate, however if it's an unconfirmed booking, it might not include the 24 hour "sit" time. Most important is your health and safety, thank you in advance for any issues that might arise with confirming accurate dates that include the 24 hours between reservations.

The Neighborhood:
We live in a residential beach neighborhood so life here is relaxed and at a slower pace (which is why we all want to come to the beach!). Please be respectful of our neighbors, no loud music outdoors. Please do not gather outdoors after 9pm and keep voices low.

The home is centrally located in Old Town Bay Saint Louis and only 3 blocks from the beach and from the center of the action on Beach Boulevard. The beaches that span from Bay St. Louis, through Waveland are dog friendly so take your fur baby with you to the beach. Our closest bar and restaurant The Blind Pirate and Sno Ball Stand is just 2 blocks away.
A grocery store and store to purchase wine and other adult beverages is just a short 3 minute drive.
There is a large park with a splash pad for kids (and adults) to enjoy just 2 blocks away.
The Hollywood Casino and Golf Course are a 7 minute drive from the house.

Getting Around:
Getting around Old Town Bay Saint Louis is easy, it's a 10 minute walk to the beach, a 5 minute walk to the closest restaurant and bar, and 7 minutes to get to our favorite coffee shop.
There is a free trolley that runs from Waveland to Bay St. Louis, with stops at the Silver Slipper Casino, Buccaneer State Park, Waveland Beaches and the shops and restaurants in Bay St. Louis.
For a great beach town experience, cruise like a local on our 4-person golf cart which is free with your rental. The 2011 cart has been updated with new batteries so you can have plenty of power to get to your favorite beach destination, yacht club, or a day spent downtown shopping and dining. A maximum of 4 guests are allowed on the golf cart at one time.

Fur baby house with a golf cart.

Great place to stay, very nice, BUT if you advertise with a golf cart, you have to provide one, and if it doesn't work you need a smooth back up plan to provide one with out getting the renters involved. One of major reasons we stay at this place is the gulf cart, it gives us the ability to get around town, the beach, the parades. When that goes away, it changes the entire vacation.

Family Time

This home away from home was prefect. It allowed us to bring our small dog with us. The house was so clean you would never guess pets were allowed. There were pet supplies furnished also. The yard was peaceful and fenced. We highly recommend this VRBO and the use of the golf cart was a BIG plus.

Great place to relax

We were looking for a place to relax but still be close to the beach and restaurants. The house is 3 blocks or less from anywhere we wanted to go. The golf cart was a perfect way to get around. Our French bulldog felt at home and enjoyed the fenced in backyard. The home is clean and comfortable and Bethany thought of everything one might need… including bed, food dish, blanket and toys for our pup.

Terrific again—our second stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our second stay at this house. It’s spotless! The yard is perfect for a dog and you can’t beat the location—just a short ride on the provided golf to downtown BSL. Bethany and Mike were great to assist when we mistakenly left something behind. I would highly recommend. We will be back!

Bethany was better than great to work with and was very gracious in helping us through a few personal emergencies while we were here. We had our best "Snowbird Season" yet.

Bay St. Louis Vacation

We visited Bay St. Louis for the first time and thoroughly enjoyed it. The main reason was our stay at " Fur Babies". The home was located very near downtown and all the restaurants and shops. The neighborhood was quiet and very safe to walk, even at night. One of the greatest benefits was the use of the golf cart included with the rental. It was ideal for sightseeing and shopping. My only recommendation would be to have more and better pots and pans for cooking at home. There were plenty of dishes and utinzels. The owners were very nice and very responsive to our questions and were a pleasure to work with. We thank them for our stay and hopefully we will visit them again.

Very Nice Surprise!

What a pleasant surprise to find such a nice place to stay for a week of vacation. I don't think we could have picked a nicer place to enjoy ourselves. Everything is in new condition and shows no sign of any wear. Our dog OBEE really enjoyed the shaded fenced in backyard, which was a requirement for me. The golf cart provided a fun and very easy transportation system to access all the downtown attractions, and finding a parking space easy. Very handy because we had a person who really struggles to walk any distance. Bethany is a joy to work with, and was very accommodating when I discovered I"d left a personal item when departing. I found her written notes very helpful and handy when checking in and out. All in all, very nice accommodations for a stay in BSL which I would highly recommend. Thank you Bethany. Lane

About the host

Hosted by Bethany

Host profile image
It's been our dream to have a beach escape that is close to our home in New Orleans and we come down to enjoy it as much as we can. Unfortunately for us, work gets in the way, so we invite our renters to enjoy the house as much as we do! We own an event planning company in New Orleans and work in the music industry. We don't have kids but our fur baby Maceo loves the beach as well, so we spend as much time as we can kicking around in the sand and watching Maceo splash around in the waves.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this mid-century modern home in 2017 and then spent the next 6 months giving it a make over and more of a beach feel. We love the marine green metal roof and the palms out front. The wood plank tile floors and washed wood furniture give it a comfortable clean feel. The large back yard and the doggie door were a huge selling point for us as we wanted to enjoy outdoor areas for both our dog and for our friends and family. We are foodies and had to go all out with new appliances in the kitchen as we spend a lot of time making meals and enjoying company. And we are super clean freaks so the property will feel like new every time we invite a guest into the house and if it's not, please let us know ;)

What makes this property unique

It's been our dream to have a golf cart to cruise around on and enjoy the beach life, so we had to include it in our rental. It's a newer 2011 model which for us is like the best road vehicle ever!

We work and play hard, so including the full body massage chair was a must. It's in the living room so it's easy to relax without missing the party, and it can be used to lay back and read a great book as well.

We went all out with new furniture and comfortable bedding because that's always important to us when we go and stay in a vacation rental. We made the house just the way we wanted to have it when we go and stay there on our own or with family, so hopefully we haven't missed anything that would make your time at our Fur Baby rental the best time yet!
