Great getaway super close to beach and walmart

We really enjoyed staying here, was quiet and tranquile. There are beach bicycles in case you want to go on an outing, and also the place was professionally cleaned. Older property and laundry room could use a bit updating, but washer and dryer works well.We enjoyed the stay!

Cottage spot was awesome

Cocoa's Cottage was a great place to unwind and relax. Having bicycles there was a bonus. The Walmart was super close as well as other food options. It wasn't a long drive to Gulfport at all either.I really loved the sitting area on the front porch and with the yard being fenced in my dog sat out there with me for hours.

Home Away From Home

Perfect for a family of 4. Reminded me of times when I visited my parents. Very clean and excellent communication. All the info in the custom binder is a big plus for those looking for things to do or places to eat locally. Close to a WalMart and just off the beach which made the trip even easier. Even has bikes for those wanting ro ride down to the beach. Would definitely book again!

Lovely cottage

This cottage is really relaxing and comfortable. The two bedrooms are quite large and the living spaces have been opened up to feel very open. Back yard is nice. Short walk to the beach. Close to shopping. We’d definitely stay again.

Clean, quiet, and close to the beach

This is a cute, clean home in a very quiet neighborhood furnished with just about everything you need, other than food and bathroom essentials (bath soap, shampoo, toothpaste, etc). It is within walking distance of the beach. The owner is very friendly and available via text. Our stay was very pleasant and we would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by LS Hymel

Host profile image
Originally from New Orleans, I moved with my family to the area when I was young and grew up less than three miles from this precious little house, where my grandparents retired. I still live close by in nearby Long Beach. It has meant a lot to me to restore and remodel this home, making it 'new' again. It is my pleasure to make it available to others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

This property has been in my family for a number of years --- my grandparents retired here, and my father lived here, too. I acquired it in 2010 and named it Cocoa's Cottage, after my dad's canine companion.

What makes this property unique

This cottage is completely fenced in--- a great place for children or pets to play. Also, it is wheel-chair friendly. Are you a musician? This cottage has a spinet piano for you to enjoy. Cable, wireless internet, stainless appliances, jalousie windows, ceiling fans, oak trees, spacious front porch and back patio for grilling. Parking for up to four cars and/or a boat.
