Great location for a couple with dog(s)!
Only a half mile walk to the beach, and situated across from St. Stanislaus athletic fields. Lovely art galleries, gift stores, antique stores, restaurants and bars abound. The large garden is fenced and safe for dogs. We have recently added a saltwater pool with ample lounging and seating surrounding it. The cottage is circa 1880's and was renovated two years ago which includes a fully equipped stainless steel and granite kitchen. The bathroom is modern with a tub and shower. Charming wrap around side porch (perfect for reading), and deck on back of home. Rooms are light and bright with high ceilings and fans. Washer and dryer in home. Large off street parking area.

About Julia Kingham
We live in New Orleans and have been visiting BSL for many years. The contrast from the bustle of the city is really relaxing, and we find the locals welcoming and friendly. We are huge dog lovers and have often run into the dilemma of our dogs being large and having three total makes it almost impossible to find accommodation. So we are happy to open our home to responsible dog owners. Quite a few of the bars/restaurants allow dogs, which we really take advantage of.
Julia Kingham purchased this Cottage in 2016
Why Julia Kingham chose Bay Saint Louis
It is walking distance to the beach and old town. We have comfortable outdoor seating for lounging and dining, and an all around well appointed and tastefully decorated cottage.
What makes this Cottage unique
The old historic charm of this cottage reminds of us New Orleans, with the benefit of being walking distance to the water, and small town atmosphere.

Great cottage
Bay St Louis
Two words....THANK GOODNESS!!!! these guests didn't stay. Shortly after arrival we received a call from a concerned neighbor that there was a very loud domestic dispute (full of expletives) taking place on the front porch. This disturbance was followed by luggage being kicked from the porch, onto walkway and then kicked again into the parking area. (Damage to the porch resulted). There was some concern as to whether the police should be notified. However, upon being told the the guests had vacated realized it was not necessary. As the many reviews claim the home is very dog friendly, and has received zero complaints about such, or the neighborhood. We always appreciate being told that there will be dog(s) and if one asks for special needs we will do our best to provide. In this case we were not informed.
Nice place
Great visit Thanksgiving Week
Neat house for a senior couple vacation
Nice comfortable living space. Close enough to walk practically anywhere.
Location
Every 2nd Saturday of the month is an artwalk that features the shops and galleries staying open a little later and offering music and libations. Some street entertainment is often present, and it is usually well attended. There are several casinos close by.
