About the host

Hosted by Jay Merritt

Host profile image
We have lived in the area for 15 years and have fallen in love with the MS Gulf Coast. We love the outdoors, traveling, and the restaurants from Bay St. Louis to Ocean Springs. We are glad to recommend our favorite restaurants and bars.

Why they chose this property

2nd Street is a very highly sought after area in Gulfport. It has many beautiful oaks and is one block from the beach and close to downtown. There are historic homes along the street that have been renovated and many new construction homes in the area. It is a very quiet street where you'll see many retirees walking their dogs or going for a walk/jog when the weather allows. We try to provide more than just a place to stay but a place to have memories that will last forever.

What makes this property unique


Our renovated main house was built in 1920 but has undergone many changes through the years. It was completely renovated after Katrina and has been renovated more recently by us with new paint and lovely furnishings and artwork so the home feels much much newer but with so much old world charm. The guest house was once a 5 car garage for very high end vehicles from a previous owner and was eventually converted to a living space with a bedroom, loft, living room, kitchen, and 2 bathrooms and laundry space. The exquisite garage ceiling is rare (gold colored metal finish) so we decided to keep that extra flare to tie into decorating. We love that our home and property feels like a special place to guests to unwind and reset. We love hearing from our guests who tell us about the great memories made there. We love being able to offer this experience to others.

SOME EVENTS MAY BE ALLOWED

Since there are 2 houses it will allow larger groups to stay while allowing enough privacy to have their own space where they can hang out late into the night while some go to sleep early.
The property is located just 215 yards from the beach making it easy to walk to.
There is a large yard with a beautiful sprawling oak tree overlooking water views down to the ocean.
