The name of the house is spot on. Pelicans flew by all day long and often times perched on the posts in the water or on the deck post. Everything was very nice, peaceful and cozy, while being very roomy. Would highly recommend.

This was the perfect property for our family of 2 adults, 3 teens, and a small dog. We enjoyed fishing, sunbathing, and exploring the town. We cooked most meals and the home was equipped with everything we needed. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a quiet, mostly secluded beach.

Very Nice Spot for a get away with a small beach area when others nearby are rocky or they don’t have much sandy beach for your feet. Plus a pier that’s still in good condition. Nice tree swings for the kiddos. Pretty close to most things to do. Great spot

The pet friendly house with private shore, dock and place for fire couldn't be beat. The best house, deck and grounds we've ever rented.The kids had a great time fishing and catching very nice crabs. The only drawback was not being aware how muddy the water was, no matter where you were on MS coast. And due to storm we couldn't get to one on the barrier islands to swim in clear water. So kids didnt swim for entire week. Now we know. Bummer.

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.
