About this property

Walk to beach. Privacy fenced backyard. Relax in Outdoor porch Soaking Tub.

Please protect your vacation with travel insurance as i follow my cancellation policy.
You will know you are on vacation from the moment you walk through the door. Every room is a reflection of life on the coast. Decorated with local art and photos of historic Gulfport. The furniture was custom ordered to ensure a look you won't find anywhere else. With an open floor plan, friends and family can visit with each other while sitting in the kitchen or reclining on the sofa. Soft cream hardwood floors flow throughout the house.

Each bedroom has its own unique style. The master bedroom has a queen size bed and 26'' wall mounted flat panel TV. Attached bathroom with antique claw foot tub and a walk-in marble shower. The second bedroom has a tall king size bed, and 32'' wall mounted flat panel TV. The third bedroom has two full size beds & 32" tv, & french doors leading out to the deck and backyard. There is another door leading outside from the side porch located in laundry room.

All three bedrooms have room darkening curtains for the times you want a mid-day nap after an early round of golf, a fishing adventure, or maybe all night gambling. When you are hanging out in the living room enjoy the huge 60'' TV in a custom built entertainment center.
We offer Directv Entertainment Package subscription, streaming live on living room. All bedroom TVs have firestick apps for various free streaming.

The house is located on a quiet historical street one block north of US90 (Beach Blvd). If you enjoy walks with your pet or family this is the street for you. We are one block from gorgeous white sandy beaches and a park is within walking distance with tennis courts and a playground.

Gulfport & Biloxi have numerous seafood and local restaurants. The closest & my favorites are less than a mile away.

Spend time outdoors in our yard, fully enclosed with a privacy fence. Cook on the charcoal grill while kids play on 'hopscotch' walkway. An outdoor table and chairs provides plenty of room for dining and a covered porch keeps you out of the sun while waiting on your meal. We just added a deck with pergola to the corner of the yard which provides more seating and night time ambience.

The Ship Island Excursion docks just two miles from the house. In just 10 minutes you are at the Island View Casino in Gulfport or in 20 minutes you can be at one of the many casinos in Biloxi. Take a day trip to New Orleans 60 miles away.

The golf courses are too many to name. We invite you to stay at the Gulf Breeze Cottage and enjoy the year round fun the gulf coast has to offer! Please note the maximum occupancy of 8 at the Gulf Breeze Cottage and minimum age of renter 25.
If traveling in large groups and looking for multiple houses please check out our other property walking distance from the Cottage.

If you are not familiar with Gulfport there are a couple things we like our prospective guests to know. There are train tracks that run approximately two blocks north of the beaches. You will be able to hear trains run from most anywhere you stay that you have access to the beaches. We personally love the beaches and the water there. Some people though are disappointed since they expect large waves and clear water. This is the Mississippi Sound and the water has a murky quality to it. It is very shallow and you can walk out in it without it getting very deep for quite a ways. We find the beaches peaceful by our house and seldom crowded. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and everyone has their own opinion of the perfect beach.

WE WANT OUR GUESTS TO BE AWARE THAT WE WILL NOT REQUEST A WIRE TRANSFER, WE WILL NEVER ASK YOU FOR ONE. We will initiate any payment request thru secure sites that offer protection for you. If you wish to confirm that any email that comes from us is legitimate, please call us 423-595-6850 Accepted payment is mailing a check, payment thru VRBO/Homeaway or Intuit Quickbooks.

Location is EXCELLENT. All was great except: The master bedroom mattress uncomfortable. I moved to the king bed and the linens were sour. I moved to the double bedroom. Also, towels were sour. We sanitized the washer and washed bed linens and towels. Pillows could be replaced.

Great stay!

This house was just as described and pictured. Super roomy! Literally 2-3 minute walk to the beach, if that. Great little private backyard. Plenty of dining options in Gulfport and short drive to Biloxi. One hour and twenty minute drive to the French Quarter. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great view

Property was very close to everything we wanted to do. House was spacious, clean, and well equipped. Fenced yard was great for our dog. The Mardi Gras parade on the street in front of the house was an added bonus. Watching the ships in gulf waters was relaxing. Contact with owner was easy. Would highly recommend if going to the coast. We will stay again if going to Gulfport.

Nice cottage close to the beach!

This cottage is cute as can be and in a pretty nice neighborhood close to the beach. An easy drive to Mobile to the East or New Orleans to the West made day trips fun. If you stay in colder weather you may find the heat pump doesn't keep you as comfortable as a forced furnace, but that's just our personal preference. We would definitely book this property again!

Perfect location

We came for Mardi Gras and visit with family and friends. Because we lived on the coast before, we knew the area. An extra bonus was a small parade right down the street. The house felt like home. The living room had comfortable group seating for long overdue conversations with family. The kitchen had all we needed but the coast has so many great restaurants to enjoy. We would love to return.

About the host

Host profile image
My husband and I enjoy this area so much we bought a second home here. We lead busy lives but this is our chance to catch our breath and just enjoy life a little because it sure is going by fast.

Why they chose this property

We looked at several locations along the coast but kept coming back to Gulfport. The beach is just a block away and the house is close to everything else we enjoy doing on vacation.

What makes this property unique

We have two vacation homes on same block. This can come in handy for groups and extended families.
