Thank you for choosing to stay with us. Glad to know you enjoyed your stay. Mardi Gras is one of our favorite times of the year as well. Hope we can host you again next year.
This was a perfect stay for 6-8 people, maybe more if you have children that will pile into bunk beds. We loved being right on the water, and the neighborhood was very welcoming!We would choose this host again if we come back to Diamondhead!!

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. We are located in Bay St Lou’s, MS not Diamondhead just so there is no confusion on our location! We would love to host you again.
This property is in a great location. Easy and quick boat ride to anywhere in the bay. The house was very clean and had all that we needed. The owners were super nice. Would love to come back next year.
The host was welcoming and answered my questions in a timely manner. We loved the view of the Bayou and sitting on the porch. The mattresses were uncomfortable, and the pillows were thin and cheap. We also were not able to cook as the pans were nonstick but scraped up and not safe. As a courtesy, I tried to set the clocks, all six of them to the correct time, as when we arrived they were simply decor and didn't tell time. Several of the mini blinds were not installed properly and fell off when I tried to open them. The door knobs fell off in my hand on the laundry closet doors. The unit is very cute but needs some TLC and a deep clean. Otherwise we enjoyed the proximity to the coast and Bay St. Louis is an adorable town.
My husband and I love to fish and were coming to Bay St. Louis for a wedding so we decided to stay a few days on the water. Excellent communication, location and space for our needs. Literally, just a 5 minute ride to Bayou Lacroix and then another two minutes to the Jordan River. The home had all kitchen and bath supplies as needed. No children were with us but I did see plenty of board games to use. Quiet canal which was nice. We will definitely return.

Great place to stay!
This was the perfect overnight place for my family of 8 adults in Bay St. Louis during our Deep South road trip. The property was exactly as advertised, and we all had a great time. We stayed overnight after leaving New Orleans and visiting the Stennis Space Center. We were minutes away from St. Rose de Lima Church and it's famous choir and the 100 Men DBA Hall. It was a short drive to Biloxi to experience the shrimping boat and Beauvoir. I would certainly stay here again.

Ok for price
Host has 3pm check in on the listing but day of sent a message outlining a very strict 4pm check in time. We came from out of town and had planned for the 3pm check in so it threw off our schedule. Front door does not seal when closed so we had a few issues with tiny bugs and some mosquitoes. Close to the beach and has all the usual things youd expect from a rental. House sways a bit when people walk through the halls whoch was a little weird to feel.

Check in time is 4 pm. States on the site. If you would have reached out I would have let you check In at 3. As far as the mosquitos we have no control over them, it’s part of being on the water. And any house that is off the ground on wood or brick pilings will have movement. Otherwise I hope you enjoyed your stay.

Four Generations
At 8:15 AM every morning they came - the ducks! This made it quiet easy to get the kids out of bed to begin our day. Fun, clean, quiet, and conveniently located house (central to everything!) served as a GREAT consolidated vacation spot to get together under one roof - Grandma-grandma, grams, adult children, and the grandkids. Just needed more closet hangers. . .

Happy to know that you enjoyed your stay. I will be sure to get some more closet hangers so hopefully when you stay with us in the near future you will have plenty to hang your clothes. Striving to make it what all our tenants want it to be.

We welcome our Snow Birds. Glad you guys enjoyed your visit and our Bayou Get A Way. Looking forward to hopefully seeing you guys name on our reservations calendar for the upcoming winter. Maybe it will be a little dryer this time around.
This is our third visit to the property although we often stay at other places in Bay St Louis/Waveland. We reported two broken dining room chairs but nothing was done about it. We had to use lawn chairs to eat our meals. Also our stay was during February/March. The four bunk beds had NO blankets. Since we know the house is not particularly well-furnished, we luckily brought sleeping bags, so we didn't have to sleep with the heat turned up high.

The house
When we arrived we didn’t have the code to get in the house. For some strange reason the door was left half way shut. The cleaning could have been better. I think the owner needs to visit and do a walk through and update a few things. The outside grill is broken couldn’t grill as plan. So yea we made the best of our weekend but definitely didn’t go as planned.

Why they chose this property
We bought this house after Hurricane Katrina. It was completely gutted down to stud walls and completely remodeled. Recently we decided to put the home up for rent so others would have the opportunity to enjoy the area as much as we do.
We have always enjoyed being on the water. When we discovered Bay St. Louis in the summer of July 1998 we knew this was going to be where we spent our summers with our boys (back then ages 5 and 2) now ages 20 & 17.
What makes this property unique
We love to fish, whether its on the river or in the gulf. We also enjoy our time hanging out up the river on the sand bars where we meet great people. Also sitting outside in the morning and enjoying the quietness and breeze on the porch is such a luxury!
