The Enchanted Cottage was absolutely perfect! Debra thought of everything from basic necessities to delightful decor. It is obvious her heart and soul went into preparing this rental. It looks exactly like the adorable pictures in the listing!
I have rented several properties on other house-sharing platforms. I have seen it all. This house exceeded every expectation! It was spotless when we arrived. The kitchen was stocked with everything you could think of. The host left us all manner of necessities like soap, shampoo, conditioner, laundry/dishwasher packs, seasonings, foil, ziplock bags, plates, glasses, silverware, knives, cutting boards, even a bottle of wine! She even left beach towels, beach toys, puzzles, and games for the kids! How thoughtful!
All the rooms had very comfortable beds with plenty of pillows, blankets, and sheets. Every room featured a flat-screen tv with satellite. The wifi was fast and never waivered. The water gets hot and the A/C gets cold! You'll want for nothing in the Enchanted Cottage!
The location is absolutely perfect! It is in a quiet neighborhood less than one minute (drive) to the beach. The beach was clean, family-friendly, and had an excellent bathroom facility. The tides were low shallow so they were perfect for my toddlers. The beach near the house is a freshwater beach with white sand. Perfect for small children! At night during low tide, we were able to walk about 20 yards into the shoreline and explore. Lots of people were fishing and you could hear the music from nearby restaurants. Someone even gave my daughter a soft shell crab they found! What a memory!
We didn't get to experience the nightlife on Bay St. Louis because we had our kids with us. However, a drive down the strip revealed many places to eat or drink and everyone had a smile on their face. We did hit up a small walk-up ice cream shop about a half-mile off the strip. Get the Smores sundae! Yum!
I highly recommend the Enchanted Cottage for anyone looking for the perfect vacation spot! Debra made sure that everything was perfect for us! We will definitely be back again!
Thank you, Debra, for an unforgettable experience!
