About Allen Reed
Moved to the Gulf Coast in 1996 and lived in Waveland until 2005 and afterwards resettled to the current location.
Allen Reed purchased this house in 2007
Why Allen Reed chose Bay Saint Louis
We bought this property due to its proximity to the beach and the size of the yard. Since 2007, we have established numerous butterfly and rain gardens using native plants to create a beautifully secluded nook just off the center of "The Bay".
What makes this house unique
Some of our favourite qualities about the property include the front porch, the front dining room, the views out our windows overlooking the yard and gardens and the privacy from trees and large plants. Sitting on the front porch enjoying our morning coffee is something we enjoy every morning at sunrise. In the evenings we enjoy our dinner looking out the front window watching the sunset.

Reviews
Wonderful!
4.8/5 -
(12 traveler reviews)
Quaint and quiet. Beautiful gardens.
The place was lovely as were the owners. Thanks so much for a wonderful last minute weekend getaway. Will be back.
Great mini-vacation get-away!
The house was perfect for my wife and me. It's close enough to walk to the beach, but we chose to ride the bikes instead. We loved exploring the area, trying out the different restaurants, and sitting on the porch at night. Allen and Cathy were great hosts. If this home is on your short list, I'd say book it. You won't be disappointed.
Very nice little place!
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was peaceful and most of what we needed was provided. The only thing I wished for was an ocean view off this porch but the garden was lovely to look at! Thanks so much for a quick get away!
Quiet Retreat
The Ballentine Cottage was just what we needed. Close to the beach but tucked away and surrounded by lush gardens. Allen and Kathy were great hosts and their recommendations were winners!
Beautiful & Peaceful
I want to thank Ms Bowman from Mississippi for cancelling on us at the last minute. Me and my friend would have not found this place. Beautiful gardens and peaceful!! We will def be back next year!! Owners were very hospitable.
Cute little cottage tucked in a garden with a sense of privacy.
Truly an outstanding stay-we extended it two days! The house is wonderful and super clean and comfortable. The owners are great and there if you need something (like advice on fishing saltwater!) but absolutely not intrusive. Really a wonderful place to stay a block from the beach in a lovely little town on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and the Bay Saint Louis.
