Location: Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, USA (Located on Bayou Phillip and the Bay of Saint Louis)
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 3 Baths (Sleeps 8)
Located on a canal just off Bayou Phillip which connects to the Jourdan River and the beautiful Bay of Saint Louis, this house is the perfect place for fishermen. A great public boat lauch is located at the end of the street. Moor your boat at the dock behind the house and the open water is only a short distance from the house. The redfish and speckled trout are abundant and Bayou Phillip and the adjoining Bayou LaCroix both offer great fishing and sight seeing. The Jourdan River wanders for miles inland and is an attraction for fishermen. The Louisiana marsh and Cat Island are just a short distance from the bay and offer some of the best fishing in the south.
The house is on a dead end street making a very quiet and peaceful setting to relax and enjoy grilling outside. It has a wrap-around porch for watching an early morning sunrise or a wonderful sunset and a deck over the water.
There are three bedrooms. Two downstairs and one upstairs. The upstairs bedroom has two twin beds and a full size bed, full bath and washer and dryer. The downstairs bedrooms have queen size beds.
Minutes from restaurants, shopping, Silver Slipper casino & Hollywood Casino, golfing at The Bridges Golf Club an Arnold Palmer signature championship golf course, tennis, boating, bilke trails, Antique shopping, Art Galleries, Canoeing (contact Wolf River Canoes at their website), swimming and fishing. Gulfport is only 20 minutes where you will find a great Children's museum and the Gulf Islands Waterpark - the largest waterpark on the coast, featuring wild rides, miles of slides and cool summer fun for all ages. New Orleans is about an hour away where you can visit the Historic French Quarter, Aquarium of the Americas, IMAX Theater, Audubon Zoo, Famous New Orleans Restaurants or take a cruise on a paddlewheeler. Bay Saint Louis and Waveland have many interesting shops, so plan to explore the area and see what we have to offer!

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
We are Mississippi natives. We believe in God and we are proud to be Americans. Phillip is a Viet-Nam veteran. We both love fishing and boating. We're also avid NASCAR fans. We love going to the races in Talladega and we usually visit another track sometime during the season. We have 3 children, 8 grandchildren, 4 cats, and 4 dogs. Our dog, Rudy, goes everywhere we go. If we need to stay overnight and Rudy is not allowed to go, we don't go. We live in north Mississippi tucked away in the woods at the end of a long driveway. We feed the deer and turkey in our back yard and we keep a watchful eye on a favorite deer we call "Tripod" because she is missing a front leg. We rescue dogs and cats that have been abandoned and try to find them good homes. We love the Mississippi gulf coast and want to spend a lot of time there when we retire from our jobs.
Why the Owner Chose Bay St. Louis
We purchased this house just a few days prior to hurricane Katrina's unwelcome visit to our coast. We made the decision to find a vacation home on our own gulf coast after hurricane Ivan destroyed our favorite cabin on the Bon Secour River in Alabama. As we traveled around we discoverd Bay Saint Louis. What a wonderful little town!! Even though there have been a lot of changes since the hurricane, we still love our location and expect it to get even better in the future.
The Unique Benefits of this House
We love our house! There's room for a large group of folks. The upstairs bedroom is great for kids. Underneath the house we have a large table for family gatherings. There's a deck on the water and a dock for your boat. It's very quiet and restful. We hope you will consider a vacation in Bay Saint Louis.

My grandson (Sam, age 3) caught his first fish. He was so proud and we have the pictures to prove it. We really enjoyed our stay!

What a beautiful home! Thank you for sharing it. We lost our camp to Katrina - coming here brought back beautiful memories. We skied all day and enjoyed the porch in the evening. We won't be rebuilding but can hopefully come here 2 or 3 times a year.

My sisters and I had a good weekend - celebrating a visit with our brother who lives in Waveland! This house weathered 13 children, 6 adults and 1 baby. Thanks for the use of your home!

The home far exceeded my expectations. My family enjoyed every aspect of the house...kitchen, dock, beautiful wrap around porch, canal. The kitchen was well stocked. I will tell everyone about this house. I really felt at home here.
