We really enjoyed the 4 night stay at your lovely costal cottage. This property is even better in person than in the photos. The house was well thought out in design and in the decor. The location was close to everything , beach, restaurants,shopping, etc. Nice back yard w/pool for our dog to run around. Jack the owner was very gracious and answered any questions we had. Property is very well maintained which was a plus. We would definitley recommend this property, it is exactly what is advertised.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, girls getaway.
Owner response: Thanks so much - we're glad our cottage was a part of a pleasant vacation for you. Hope to see you again sometime!

I can't say enough positive things about this Charming Coastal Cottage. From the moment we walked in we were thrilled - concrete floors that looked like Italian tile - didn't have to worry about our dogs scratching the floor- what a relief. The pictures online accurately show what you can expect, but until you are staying here, you can't appreciate how lucky you are. Everything is new, everything is spotless. The pool outside is lovely and such a bonus. This house is less than a block from the coast. You can't ask for a better location. Close to stores, restaurants, perfect! The owners were so considerate and helpful - even finding fun things for us to do. Easy drive to New Orleans. This house is truly a gem. We guarantee that you will love it!Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, tourists without a car, girls getaway.
Owner response: It was great getting to know your family - including your two big Golden Retriever boys! We are so glad you enjoyed your visit and had a restful, relaxing stay. Thanks so much for such an outstanding review - we hope you'll definitely come back to visit again with us.

We highly recommend staying here. We were so comfortable and felt completely at home. The pictures are exactly as it looks. The cottage is decorated so nice and it has everything you need. You can walk down to the beach or around the neighborhood. The owner is so nice and willing to help in anyway he can to answer any questions you have or find out. This added a nice personal touch. If we come back to the area, we definately would stay here again and recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. Plently of good seafood places to eat and quaint shops in the center of town. We loved it here.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, people with disabilities, adventure seekers, girls getaway.
Owner response: So glad you enjoyed your stay (except for all the rain while you were here). It was nice to meet you and glad to be able to answer some of your questions about the area. Hope you will be able to visit us again, so we can get you some better weather next time!

We are two snowbirds from Amsterdam who visited for the first time the South. There was plenty of room for us (we used two bedrooms and two bathrooms), everything was wel welequippeed, cozy and clean. We felt immediatly at home and comfortable. One sunny day we spended in the garden sitting and laying outside all day. We walked a lot on the beach and along all the live oaks surrounding us., drank some coffee in Long Beach and walked back. We went to the mardi grass parade in Pass Christain and collected lots of beads. Jack was extremely helpfull in telling about the area and explaining how everything worked (he told us about the pass Christian Mardi Grass Parade). We were one day late, because of the blizzard in New York we could not fly to New Orleans, without asking he deducted this night from the amount. In the end we stayed one night extra because this night was still open. Elisabeth designed the house and she lives here, she did a good job and everything is expressing the warmth she is as a person.Owner response: It was so great to meet you both and to get to talk to you about the Netherlands and Europe and your perspective of our area. We are so honored to have guests from so far away, and we really appreciate all your kind words. We hope that if you take that cross-country trip across the U.S. some day that you'll stop back by and stay with us again!

This was the perfect vacation for us thanks to the Coastal Cottage! The house is locate in the perfect location - two blocks from the beach and close to everything you want to do on the MS Gulf Coast. The house is perfect! It's comfortable and cozy. The neighbor is quiet and peaceful. Everything listed about this house is accurate. The photographs reflect the general appearance, but everything was so much better in person. The owner is a true gentleman and answered all of our questions and provided local information about several restaurants. The only thing that woulkd have made week better was if had longer to stay!! We received notification within a couple days of leaving that our deposit was being refunded and mailed to our home. The refund arrived within three or four days. You cannot go wrong renting this charming cottage!!Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Thanks so much for providing your thoughts about our property. We are so glad that your visit was enjoyable and that our cottage was a part of that. We hope that you will come back again when Cruisin' the Coast time rolls around (or any other time you'd like to visit!)

My wife and I stayed here two days over labor day on our way to Texas - - This is a truely hidden gem. It is a two story cottage with a master on the main floor two additional bedrooms upstairs. It is furnished beautifully and comfortable. Has a large kitchen and great room and the best part it is pet friendly. The pool in back is a great add on. It is within walking distance of the gulf (about four blocks. Unfortunatly we stayed right after the Hurricane so the gulf was not worth the walk but that took nothing away from the charm of the cottage. They provided a grill, charcoal, and and electric starter - we had great steaks on night. Plenty of nice resturants if you want to go out but we decided to stay in and enjoy the night lights in the pool. Great stay all around - We will definatly be back!!!Recommended for: Families with young children, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, girls getaway.
Owner response: It was great having ya'll stay at our cottage. We're so glad you enjoyed your visit and that you loved our property like we do! Hope to have you back for a nice long stay - thank you for your kind words.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2011
About the owner: This is one of several of our family's properties in the state. We live here part of the year, but can be flexible to accomodate vacation rentals. Owners are licensed Mississippi real estate agents.
Why the Owner Chose Long Beach:
After looking for property in other beach areas, we visited here about one year post-Katrina & appreciated the small town atmosphere of the area and could see the potential for the MS coast to be rebuilt better than ever. We wanted to help be a part of that rebuilding.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
We love the privacy of being removed from other houses, but still close enough to neighbors to not feel isolated. We also love that the property is surrounded on several sides by live oak trees giving the property a beautiful backdrop. The great location (close to the beach, grocery shopping, restaurants, hospital, etc) made it ideal for us. Also, adding the pool recently has made the cottage even more of a place to relax and enjoy the beach-area lifestyle.
