Gulf Coast Gem

Everything about our stay was fantastic. We live in Virginia and we wanted a special place to stay on our 20th wedding anniversary. We looked at many, many places and decided on the Pelican's Perch for our celebration. We are so happy we did! From the beautiful view of the gulf we had each morning with coffee, to the drum we had for dinner that we caught off the pier, it was perfect! Thank you Tim and Leanne for sharing your home with us!

Thanksgiving Gift

The property is lovely. All we needed and more in the B&B. Only comment is that the king bed is a huge challenge for those of 80. Being right on the ocean was our gift. Even though the temps in November are cool, just being by the water again was wonderful. The bonfire a special time. Loved all the thoughtful little extras.

We loved our trip! The house was beautiful and had everything you need. We loved the back deck and the kayaks. But our favorite part was the pier where everyone enjoyed fishing, crabbing and hanging out!

Quiet Yet Breathtaking

We had a wonderful time at the Pelican Perch. I kayaked with a dolphin and my children found treasures on the beach each evening. We enjoyed trips into town and fun family adventures like the shrimp boat tour.

Impromptu Gulf Vacation

Determined to get in an October vacation with only a few weeks to plan it, this house on the Gulf turned out to be perfect for us. It is in a great location with a breath-taking view of the water. The interior has been lovingly renovated and everything was comfortable. For the lucky person who sleeps on the left side of the bed in the Primary bedroom, you will be treated to beautiful sunrises lying in bed looking out the window. Pelican's Perch was perfectly pleasant.

Perfect vacation

This house is beautiful with everything you need. The six of us were very comfortable. Plenty of room to spread out. Our family enjoyed a relaxing vacation with a beautiful view and the soothing sound of the gulf. The pier is an extra perk, we used the supplied crab traps and caught some crabs, we even tried our luck with a cast net and caught lots of shrimp

Perfect weekend

This place is perfect. The house is amazing and has everything you can think of. The views of the sunrise and sunset are absolutely the best. We came for a quick fishing trip and Leeann was so helpful with all the information we needed to get our trip started. It was our first trip down but we will definitely be back.

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.
