What a wonderful stay!
We loved our week in Bay St Louis. Citrus Cottage was a perfect fit for us. Mary Ellen welcomed us on arrival day & helped out with the golf cart rental. The place was immaculate..just as the listing said it would be. It was so refreshing to have enjoyable and/or walkable access to Old Town’s dining and shopping venues. We WILL be back.

Awesome place and awesome location
We had 4 adult couples that stayed for Jeepin The Coast. The location is 2 blocks from downtown Bay St Louis and only 4 blocks from the nightlife. The home is very well kept with 4 spacious bedrooms and 3 baths. It was well stocked with everything that you might need. The pool was chilly however there is plenty of shade to stay out of the heat. We enjoyed it so much we are renting it again next year!!! Highly recommended!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Ellen Warner

Host profile image
Mary Ellen and Bob are experienced vacation rental hosts. Their interest in developing property was born after Hurricane Katrina when they purchased a 126 year old creole cottage in Bay St. Louis, MS . They completely restored this historical "Biloxi Cottage" (1 of two left on coast). The Creole Cottage was placed on the National Register of Historic Properties.

It is now the flag ship of our small portfolio of restored luxury properties. Mary Ellen and Bob each contribute to the success of the rentals. Mary Ellen manages the varied properties and gives the guests a special local experience. Bob grew up in Waveland, MS & attended St. Stanislaus College in Bay St. Louis. Mary Ellen and Bob's knowledge and lifelong ties to the area and the people gives our guests a true local experience.

They share a special experience that reveals the "old world" charm, the natural beauty, and unique culture of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. After one visit we hope that our guests will appreciate this beautiful coastal area as much as we do. We welcome you to the Citrus House.

Why they chose this property

This property is an ideal luxury home in the center of "Old Town", near the beach, shopping and the harbor. Many local eateries are within walking distance. A stay at "The Citrus House" will give you the complete Bay St. Louis experience. You will be able to enjoy the shops, the fine food, the beach and your own private pool in an outstanding location.

What makes this property unique

This is the perfect house for a large family or two families vacationing together. The private pool, spacious accommodations and luxury appointments are ideal for a relaxing memorable vacation.
