Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
We are native Mississippians. 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
This is a great house. The upstairs bedroom is a good place for the kids to watch movies or play their video games. It also works well when two families are sharing the house. Being on a dead end street, there is hardly any traffic. We own the lot next to our house so there is plenty of room for parking and it gives us a lot of privacy. We can fish from our deck or take a paddle boat ride in the bayou. Bay Saint Louis is working hard to rebuild the town and beach area. Every month the merchants in old town Bay Saint Louis host "Second Saturday" to encourage local residents as well as visitors to explore the shops. Construction is underway on the beach for a marina and recreation area. We hope you will consider a vacation in Bay Saint Louis.

My husband and I stayed at this house for a recent fishing trip. It's well designed for fishing. This rental has a U-shaped gravel driveway which made maneuvering the boat much easier. We just pulled the boat around the driveway instead of backing it in from the road. The house had an electrical outlet downstairs for charging the trolling motor battery between trips. Under the house, there was a covered area with a large sink for cleaning fish and a garden hose for rinsing the boat and motor.The owner was extremely helpful with fishing advice. In the evenings, we sat on the porch with our dog. The wrap around porch was fully enclosed which kept our dog confined while we enjoyed a glass of wine. The house was clean and comfortable and had everything that we needed for cooking. The only thing that we missed was a DVD player for the downstairs TV.
Recommended for:Pet owners, families with young children, adventure seekers, families with teenagers.

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.

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.

We & 2 other couples stayed in this great little Mississippi house while we donated a week of our time for St. Clare's Katrina recovery project in Waveland. It was convenient to the area, private & provided us with a comfortable haven to put our feet up in the evenings.
