As Maryland natives, my husband and I dreamed of a beach vacation home to spend time with the extended family. Unfortunately, purchasing a local property in Ocean City or Virginia Beach was out of our budget, so we started looking elsewhere: Florida, Texas, California, and finally, Mississippi. We figured a southern destination would also be nice to visit during cold winter months in the Northeast.
On our wishlist, we hoped for a place within walking distance of the beach, large enough to comfortably host 12 people, and with little to no remodeling needed. We wanted a home that would have relatively little maintenance over the coming years and feel safe for our children.
We discovered Gulfport, MS and found our oasis in this home: newly remodeled and with a large outdoor space for our family dogs to play. Our neighbors are friendly and have provided us with help more times than we can count! The house is spacious enough to give all of our family members some privacy, but small enough to feel cozy in its living and dining areas. We hope you feel the same way!
