Overall, this house was exactly what our family needed! It was close to everything, clean, very comfortable, and had all the luxuries of home! We would happily stay here again. There was only one problem with the upstairs shower, but the hospitality coordinator was quick to respond, and we were able to work around it. Overall, great experience.

beautiful home/fantastic location

This house is the perfect place for a weekend getaway to Ocean Springs! Downtown is a short walk away, but it's far enough to avoid any late night noise.

One of the best Vrbo homes we have visited. Very well stocked, extremely comfortable house. It felt like home when we walked in the door. Location is wonderful. We walked to the beach and downtown area easily each day. We also rented a golf cart and explored the area even more. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend. The host quickly responded to any questions we had.

Oceans Springs is such a cute little town and we enjoyed this home as we explored the area for the weekend. We walked to the shore and to all the great restaurants and stores downtown. It was super to avoid parking issues by staying in a downtown neighborhood with birds tweeting and turtles eating clover in the yard!The house had everything we needed for a getaway, comfy beds, Keurig coffee, and an amazing shower in the master bathroom. (Yummy Donut shop a block away!)Thanks, we'll be back!

Location was fantastic! Kitchen well stocked, appliances all seemed new. The house was clean, spacious & was perfect for us. My mom stayed in the room upstairs & my sister & I stayed in the downstairs master that has 2 queen/king beds. Wish we had more time to enjoy the porch. Walked to dinner at Lady May, breakfast at TatoNut & another morning for Phoenicia’s breakfast. Recommend!

We were in Ocean Springs for Cruisin the Coast. The Porter House was the ideal place to stay. The place was very clean, plenty of room for my wife and me and the location was great (within a 5-minute walk to downtown). The covered carport was great for my classic car. We enjoyed our visit and the Porter House had everything that we needed. Communication with the owner was very easy and we felt very welcomed to the property. We will stay here again if we go back to the Ocean Springs area.

Ocean Springs-Porter House

Incredible property and great location. Very communicative property manager. All the amenities necessary for a great stay--we arrived late and the coffee and creamer was very happy surprise! Comfortable beds and pillows. We would definitely stay here again and enjoy more of downtown Ocean Springs! Thanks for contributing to a wonderful wedding weekend for my son and daughter in law!
