Paradise Found...

Words cannot effectively describe this amazing property. From the moment you drive up you know you're staying someplace special. That is only more confirmed when you enter the front door and see the immaculately kept spaces decorated in full "Gulfport" style. The large, leather sectional was my favorite indoor amenity with its dual recliners. But in my opinion, the outdoor spaces really separate this property from anyplace else we've stayed. If you love plants, then this place is for you! Many different growing areas all containing healthy, robust, and happy plants 😀 And with a few different sitting areas to include a nice dining table near the fully-prepared gas grill, you will certainly enjoy it all as much as we did! Don't forget... Gulfport and all it has to offer is a mere 10-minute walk away. Most importantly, the hosts were incredible in all ways possible and ensured our stay was truly special. Whenever we walked in we would look at each other and just say "WOW!" An incredible, serene, calming, peaceful place that we needed, and that we'll always remember. Thank you again for allowing us to share this very special house and property! Tony and Alisa

Home away from home

The neighborhood was very cute. The house was nicely furnished and decorated. Mark and Lesley provided extra comfort in towels, shampoo, kitchen needs and bedding. We throughly enjoy the garden/patio area filled with interesting perennials, trees and succulents. Close to downtown Gulfport arts district.

About the host

Hosted by Lesley and Mark

As artists and entertainers, we fell in love with the "joie de vivre", found in the Gulfport. Long-time snowbirds from New Hampshire, we love the laid back feeling of living in an arts community and all the surrounding area has to offer. It's our hope that we may add you to a growing list of folks enjoying their stay at this property.
