Enjoy your morning coffee on the front porch while breathing in the salty air of the beautiful MS Gulf Coast. After a fun day at the beach, walk to restaurants or enjoy an evening of grilling in the backyard. Top off your night chatting around an open fire in the backyard or relaxing on the screened back porch. The back porch bar is a perfect place to get creative with cocktails or experiment with sno-cone flavors for the kids (ice shaver is stored in the kitchen).
A day at the beach is just one of the many options our MS Gulf Coast has to offer. Among all of the possibilities, here a just a few of our favorites:
- Walk to Jones Park for a fun day of splash pads and picnicking. Jones Park also offers scheduled entertainment including a Fishing Rodeo in July and an annual Festival of Lights during Christmas.
- In season, walk to the Gulfport Harbor for a ride on the Ship Island Excursion Boat. The excursion provides plenty of time for touring Historic Fort Massachusetts, relaxing on the barrier island beach, and beach combing. For more information visit https://msshipisland.com/.
-Get in the car and you’ll find more fun with outlet malls, discount stores, golf courses and the Gulf Island Water Park.
- Need a night out? The MS Gulf Coast is home to a variety of night life opportunities including casinos, fine dining, and dance clubs. Hop on google for a quick search of "MS Gulf Coast Nightlife" to learn more.
*Note: The cottage has 2 bathrooms. The master bathroom has a tub/no shower. The guest bathroom has a shower/no tub. So, 2 full bathrooms; one with a tub only and one with a shower only.

About the host

Hosted by Tammy Eakes

Host profile image
My husband and I grew up in North MS. We have called the MS Gulf Coast our home for the last 13 years. We have 2 daughters. Our older daughter is loving college life. Our younger daughter is in high school. We love being on the MS Gulf Coast and plan to retire here.

Why they chose this property

Built in 1904 this sweet little cottage has many stories to tell! It survived the MS Gulf Coast's 2 most devastating hurricanes - Camille in 1969 and Katrina in 2005.
Katrina flooded the cottage. During renovations and repairs after the storm the damaged sheetrock was removed from the walls. To the surprise and delight of the owner at the time, the original boarded walls were found hidden behind the sheetrock; she decided not to cover them again with sheetrock - thank goodness! The exposed original boards on the walls lend character and a cozy feeling to the cottage. Check out the wall plaque by the fireplace that marks the Katrina water line!

What makes this property unique

The cottage is perfectly located 1 block to the beach and walking distance to the aquarium, restaurants, and Jones Park.
Are you a Cruiser? The cottage is the perfect location for Cruisin' the Coast guests! Book early! The coveted location keeps our calendar full!!!
In addition to location, the cottage offers Gulf breezes from the front porch and privacy without the mosquitos on the screened back porch.
