PLEASE READ OUR REVIEWS. This is a comment from one of our guests
This is one of the only homes we saw in the entire area that is ground level and not up on stilts. I can't explain how valuable it was to our family to have her able to participate in every activity indoors and out! The accommodations were bordering on luxurious. Due to the small size of our group, everyone had plenty of space in this very large home. We spent a lot of time outdoors enjoying the property. The hot tub was used every evening as was the fire pit for smores. Days and nights were spent fishing and crabbing off the dock. The dock is a very substantial dock with several chairs and a covered bench swing. Fishing was excellent, especially when the tide was moving, during outgoing tides we caught freshwater fish including loads of bluegill, catfish and gar and during incoming tides we caught a mix of redfish, croakers and even sheepshead. We caught a lot of crab in the traps, unfortunately they were mostly undersized. A small alligator frequented the water in the little inlet in front of dock. He was easy to spot and get photos of as long as you approached the dock quietly. Meals were a pleasure to cook, either in the very well-appointed kitchen or on either the gas grill or the green egg just off the back deck (which runs the entire length of the home). Many hours were spent relaxing on the deck with a book, by Grandma, while watching outdoor activities take place. The kitchen had all of the necessities and then some, we brought staples and ended up leaving them unopened because the pantry was so well stocked. There are two grocery stores with in a 10–15-minute drive and we got fresh seafood from fish market daily.
If there are any problems, we or our families' members are usually close by. Minimum stays vary by season and decrease as open dates approach. Prices especially weekdays reduced drastically about two weeks prior if vacant. If you want us to notify you of those reductions let us know. We honor all rates that we post intentionally (we were hacked once in ten years). IF YOU BOOK WITH US OR ANYONE, BE SURE AND SPEAK WITH A LIVE PERSON AFTER BOOKING FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION. if you book with us, we usually call within minutes to verify and always within 24 hours.
Some extra restrictions and rules on motorcycles and motorcycle noise. The neighbors can explain why.
The first one third of a cord of firewood is provided. After that we charge $50 per one third of a cord. That is our cost.
If you purchase insurance, you are responsible for filing claims.
No smoking or vaping inside the house. Smoking permitted on exterior porches and in extremely bad weather in the garage with the garage door open. EXCESSIVE NOISE COMPLAINTS FROM NEIGHBORS will yield full or partial forfeiture of your security deposit of $200 to the charity of the neighbor's choice. Security deposit of $1000 may be required for large bookings. Arrival with more guest than the amount booked for IS GROUNDS FOR cancellation and forfeiture of rent. (A couple of folks, no big deal. NOT TWENTY). Renter must inform owners of extra day guests on the property. Failure to do so is grounds for eviction with forfeiture of rent..............NO HOUSE PARTIES!!!!!!!
For last minute bookings in winter pool may not be 80 degrees but hot tub warms up in 5 hours. Pool will be 80 and hot tub 98 unless we notify you otherwise. Hot tub has been out of service only 2 times in 10 years. House cleaners may still be present if your booking is last minute.
We are quite easy to work with but if you book for 5 people and show up with 32 we are not going to see eye to eye. If we ask a lot of questions when you book, we have been there and have all the T Shirts. We are actually very easy to work with as long as you are not trying to pull one over on us (see reviews).

Best Host I ever have had in all my years traveling. How the home was prepared, and even had labels explaining where was what, and having so many family games! Also children friendly! Never had a home be child friendly with a high seat, crib, and baby toys. This host thought of everything, the way the home was prepared, great communication before, and during our stay. So friendly, the house was so very CLEAN & had everything. Just book and you will see! I and my church, and family will definitely be staying here again! Truly thank you! We enjoyed out stay, and such beautiful property & the way the sun rises on the dock was gorgeous. Thank you once again, God bless you!

Owner definitely had cameras hidden inside and ring cameras outside but did not list it in the property details.It was weird that the owner had to come by personally to pull the trash to the curb, which we could have done ourselves. Also, he had one of his cop friends stop by the house twice, under the guise of checking things out.The house is for sale and owner scheduled a showing one hour after checkout, then blamed us because the cleaning person didn't have time.Definitely illegal to have cameras on the property and not inform the guest and I would recommend the owner not have the house for sale and vacation rental of he wants to show the property same day of a checkout.Just an overall weird experience.

This is a vindictive review. We took their damage deposit which was first time in 3 years (4 times out of 600 over 11 years). House reaked of marijuana smell which took 3 days to get rid of. Hot tub was so dirty we had to drain it, sanitize it, and refill it. We do not have hidden cameras in the house. Outside security camera is listed on website. We did not send anyone by to spy. If police came by, they did it on their own for some reason. Guests were notified we were coming to put garbage out in advance. Do you suppose they may have been uncomfortable with us on the property because they were smoking marijuana? Needless to say, they are never welcome back. Please read our other reviews.
Beautiful home on the water with more than enough sleeping space and activities for all my siblings and our kids! We had a blast and my only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer.

Great host. Tried to be super helpful. It’s a huge house and had all the staple foods to make meals. They really try to do everything to make it a comfortable and easy stay. We were either freezing or roasting because we couldn’t figure out the system and didn’t want to bug the host late at night - that’s not their fault it’s our ours. The house is pretty run down. It was cleaned- but just felt grimy and old- especially in the bathrooms. The furniture is in bad shape The back yard has a cool dock and swing. The swim spa and hot tub were clean. Hot tub was in rough shape. None of the fishing equipment at the house worked. We didn’t try the boats. Beautiful view. Great location. Cool yard. Kind hosts -

This is the first negative review we have seen in years. House is old but not run down in most folks view. Take note that folks that do not call us with a problem and then complain in a reveiw are NOT WELCOME BACK. We have two air conditining units in the house. They swithced one to air conditioning while one was on heat and then complained about the temperature.............
Read our other reviews.s Note that she says "great host".
The house was beautiful and comfortable. The entire family enjoyed our stay. The owners went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and made sure that everything was perfect. We will definitely use this host again. They made us feel like at home.
Great family get away. Lots to do and something for everyone. Owner was great to communicate with and was available if we needed anything. Would definitely go again.
Dick was a great host. The house was welcoming and his communication was superb! The property was very accurate with the listing. It was quiet, private, well stocked and had something for everybody.
We rented this property for a week to combine wedding and honeymoon. This was a lovely place to host a small wedding and reception. A beautiful home with lots of space and plenty to do in the area.
We are so thankful to have found this vacation place.
Dick and Peggy were very attentive to our needs and responded immediately when necessary. The property was amazing everything we needed to have a great family vacation. Thank you we would definitely book this place again.
Loved the deck/ dock / very relax stay in Mississippi - Would return for sure
Host was super accommodate and responsive to text.

About the host

Retired Southwest Airlines Pilot and Music Teacher. We bought this home gutted after Katrina and rebuilt it with contractors and family help. We have five kids aged 31 to 39 and we wanted room for them and their friends. They are in Texas and on the West Coast and do not visit often. We thus decided to turn it into a short term rental and it has turned out extremely well. We have a permanent residence eight minutes away. The home is extremely kid and family friendly. We try to make sure everyone has a memorable visit and of course strive to build repeat business.
Why they chose this property
IDEAL FOR LARGE FAMILIES OR GROUPS. Quiet, on the river, spacious rooms, pool table, , hot tub, lots of room. Awesome sunsets. Wildlife. Large Big Green Egg for BBQ enthusiasts. JENNAIR GAS GRILL. Large parties and gatherings are allowed...... but loud music is allowed by written permission only so there are never any misunderstandings and neighbors can be informed. If you are planing a wedding or large party (more than 25 people) , please write us to discuss it before booking.
What makes this property unique
Hot Tub. Fish/boat dock in back yard. Great fishing right on the property. Beach Chairs, Tent, Wagon. Large Big Green Egg Ceramic Cooker. Should you need additional accommodations for large group we know other home owners that do short term rentals and know the area well.
