This 1500 sqft family and pet friendly property has 3 master suites (1 king and 2 x queen) each with an adjoining bathroom and is perfect for a weekend getaway, weekly or monthly stay where the peace and quiet of a private home directly on the waterfront is just what you are looking for. We enjoy the patronage of many repeated guests and their 5-star reviews speak for themselves!

Our home sits on 1 acre and features its own private beach and 250ft pier with fishing dock where many memories are waiting to be created with fishing, crabbing, kayaking, beach games, amazing sunrises and sunsets and campfires.

The deck has room to sit for that morning coffee and to lay out and catch some sun. You will see lots of birds (eagles, pelicans, cardinals, bluejays), many fish and dolphins passing by. The views are priceless and we know this will be one of your favorite places to be.

Our stay was very enjoyable. The home was very nicely decorated. It had everything we needed. The fishing was great. We spent each day on the pier and caught black drum, mullet, croaker, speckled trout, redfish, catfish, and sting ray. We will definitely be staying there again.

Lovely sky

I am almost 80 and sometimes not so sure -‘footed. I would have appreciated a more stable means of getting to the dock. The younger among us had no problems, of course, and loved the dock.

Private beach with pier.

I have stayed here a couple of years now and love the place. It is pet friendly which makes it awesome the whole family can come. The house is updated and beautiful inside and the kids love the beach. Would definitely recommend. I'm looking forward to returning next year.

Perfect weekend

This place is perfect. The house is amazing and has everything you can think of. The views of the sunrise and sunset are absolutely the best. We came for a quick fishing trip and Leeann was so helpful with all the information we needed to get our trip started. It was our first trip down but we will definitely be back.

Really Nice

House was really nice. Enough room for a family to stay and be comfortable. The ability to use the boats was nice to try out. Pier was in good shape. Everything was in good order when we arrived. The Shed was a good place to eat. Ocean Springs was nice to walk through. Neighborhood was quite.

Amazing Family Trip

We had a amazing time. The home was beautiful and had everything you needed to do any at home cooking. The kayaks were a awesome touch to the place we enjoyed them so much. Had a blast fishing,catching crabs and had a nice relaxing bonfire at sunset one night.We were gonna venture out to the surrounding areas but we never made it due to the fact we were so relaxed and enjoying the time at the home so much!!! We will definitely be a repeat stay at this property. The host were amazing to work with and everything went smoothly.

Exceptional Stay with Outstanding Hosts

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property! The owners were fantastic with communication - no middle person management company to deal with. They were aware that we were looking forward to a week of fishing and even went above and beyond by fixing the ramp after Francine so we could access the pier. The house had everything we needed for cooking, including grills and pots/pans. We had a wonderful time. While there were ice trays available (no automatic ice maker), we made a couple of trips to the local ice vending machine to fill our cooler. Thank you to Leanne and Tim for allowing us to stay at your property for the week!

About the host

Hosted by Leanne and Tim Venable

Host profile image
We are an adventuresome family of 5 who enjoy the beach life and tropical vacation destinations.

Why they chose this property

This is one of the best kept secrets of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Ocean Springs has a fun, vibrant arts scene and is only a 20 minute drive to the high end restaurants and casino's in Biloxi. We love how secluded it is - we can escape coming here but have the luxury of movies and other family activities close by.

What makes this property unique

This is truly a home away from home. Our home has everything we need to stay for weeks and months at a time. We love the unobstructed views, close proximity to the boat launch but mostly enjoying things with the kids that we did growing up - playing outside without worrying! Fishing, kayaking, having campfires, playing board games or darts and bocce. Memories are made here each time we come. We look forward to sharing this with you.
