La Petite Cachette Main House in Old Bay St. Louis
2 bedroom, 2 1/2 bathroom- sleeps 6, pool, near beach and Old Bay St. Louis
La Petite Cachette is a completely restored "barge board" private home listed on The National Register of Historical Places.
The Main House features a creole porch with four handmade Mississippi rocking chairs. This is a great place for morning coffee or afternoon libations with friends and family. This is the spot to take in a good book or just to enjoy the peace and privacy of La Petite Cachette.
The living room is a very cozy space for relaxing and watching TV. It has a large sofa, comfortable chairs, and a flat screen tv with a DVR. The living room opens to a spacious dining room. The dining room table has seating for eight people and is decorated with the works of Mississippi artists. The chandelier is a family heirloom. The impressive pocket doors are restored and underscore the historical nature of this property.
The kitchen has been renovated and is fully equipped with two sets of dishes for eight, two sets of stainless flatware for eight, a large variety of cooking utensils, various pots and pans for cooking, oven bakeware of various sizes, and barware. There are two refrigerators: one vintage restored Philco refrigerator and a modern one with an icemaker located on the screen porch. Appliances include a gas stove, a dishwasher, and a microwave. Small appliances include a coffeemaker, a toaster, a crockpot, and a blender.
The screen porch is accessed off of the kitchen and allows for outdoor dining. The porch also overlooks the pool and patio area. There is a Weber charcoal grill for outdoor cooking needs.
The guest bedroom is well appointed with a queen size poster bed, a chest of drawers, night stands, bedside lamps, and generous closet space. The guest bedroom has two large windows and custom French doors which open on to the front porch. The bathroom is an en suite with a shower/tub combination. The bathroom is handicap accessible.
The master bedroom entrance is off of the dining room through handmade French doors. There is an heirloom French bedroom suite with a queen bed and two large dressers. Also, in the bedroom is a built-in work station with a flat screen TV. The bedroom has two large windows that allow natural light in the room. There is an en suite bathroom with a vanity and dressing area with built-in barge board cabinets. The bathroom has two pedestal sinks and a six foot soaking bathtub/shower combination.
The sunroom is located at the rear of the house. This is a beautiful sunlit room with barge board shelves and cabinets made from reclaimed wood from the New Orleans area. There is a vintage English breakfast table with balloon chairs. This is another great place for morning coffee. The windows and doors have custom made curtains to allow for privacy. The sunroom has a half bath and can be used as a third sleeping space. The couch is a queen size sleeper sofa.
The laundry room has a washer, a dryer, and rods for hanging clothes. The laundry room is located in the back portion of the house and can be accessed from the sunroom.
The saltwater pool is private and is located in the backyard area of the property. The pool is shared with the guest from the Guest Quarters. There are bicycles located under the carport for guests to use during their stay. We also have four-seat electric golf carts available to rent during your stay.
