About this property

WATERFRONT HOME - Gorgeous Views of Bayou Bernard at Mermaid Landing



Enjoy gorgeous sunsets from the wrap-around porch. Fishing from private pier. Boat launch for small watercraft (kayaks, jet skis, skiffs). The Biloxi and Tchoutacabouffa Rivers converge on the North side of Big Lake at Grasshopper Island(2nm). Launch for larger vessels conveniently located just around the corner about 1 nm. Direct access to the Gulf of Mexico is just 9 nm from the property. The barrier islands of Horn and Ship are located 12 - 15 nm offshore once you reach the Gulf. Grocery stores and Restaurants just around the corner. Shopping, Gulf Beaches, Casinos, Terrific Golf Courses and Family Attractions are all just minutes away. Perfect for a family vacation or romantic get away.

The spacious kitchen and living area affords a 180 degree view of the water from inside. The kitchen appliances have been replaced with Whirlpool's latest offerings as of May 2025. Relax and enjoy your favorite shows on the large screen TV from the source of your choice (stream your personal account, Direct TV and BluRay player provided).

The kitchen is equipped with microwave, toaster oven, coffee pot, dishwasher and all cooking utensils, including pots and skillets, that you might need. Plates, glasses and flatware are included as well.

Each of the three bedrooms have TVs as well. There is also a day room with a futon for the children to have their own space for napping, indoor playing, gaming etc. The master bedroom has a private bath with walk-in shower and closet. The other two bedrooms and the day room share a bath with a Jacuzzi Style Tub and walk-in closet.

We have been asked many times but I am sorry to say that there isn't a fire pit. While the view is fantastic, the winds are a bit strong at times for a fire pit. However, there are fire pits along the Mississippi Gulf Coast (only 2 miles from the property) that can be reserved at the site below. These are very nice with great views directly onto the Gulf of Mexico. https://harrisoncountyms.gov/how_do_i_/apply_for/sand_beach.php

Please be advised that this is a coastal property and is subject to casual flooding of the yard in the case of strong South by Southeast winds during storms and fronts on the Gulf of Mexico. These situations are not a daily occurrence but may happen during stormy conditions. It is always our intent to monitor and advise the best that we can when these situations are predicted by the local weather authorities.

This is a very nice home with all the amenities for your stay. We spent a lot of our time on the porch and fishing from the pier. The host was great and very helpful during our stay. We all were super impressed with what the property had to offer on the inside as well as the outside. You should definitely consider staying here.

An amazing place for fishing and easy access to the Gulf, great pier fishing and crabbing, the host stayed in touch with us daily to insure we had all we needed and for our boat too, we will definitely try and visit again, I am not sure it’s a good place for small children but any above 10 that like to fish it is definitely the place

Beautiful waterfront property with plenty of fishing, kayaking, and swimming opportunities. Secluded on a dead end, which was a plus for us and living quarters were clean and very upkept. We definitely will be coming back in future, this place is a definite gem. Jim deficient above and beyond with keeping in touch, making sure everything was in order. Nothing to complain about here. A side note, sunrises are amazing and a definite must for those who like to drink coffee and watch the world come to life. This place has a little bit for everyone. Thank you Jim for the excellent place to make memories. 5 star service all the way.

This is one of the better vacation rentals we have ever stayed at. Super clean, very well decorated. Had everything we needed in the kitchen. Had a beautiful porch overlooking a wonderful view of the water. Had a great dock which we caught a lot of fish off of. And the host was super responsive and helpful. We hope to go back again and not too distant future. Would recommend to anyone.

Our stay here was great! The location was perfect — close to the event but still quiet enough to relax and fish after long day. The property was spotless, cozy, and had all the little touches that made it feel like home. The host was amazing — super responsive and made check-in simple and stress-free. We’ll definitely be booking this place again for our trip next year. Highly recommended!

The house was wonderful. We caught a lot of crabs. The home has a nice kitchen and comfy beds. There were many things in the living room for the kids to play with. It was worth the stay, even though we had to drive a bit to get to the beach. The owner was also very nice!
