9/10 Wonderful! (2 reviews)
Nice little home that’s located close to downtown. It was great for what we needed. It is not handicapped friendly, tho. Currently (May 2026), there is a high 1-step front door entry that could be easily fixed with a sturdy second platform step up from the nice front porch to make it easier to get in and out. It also has a nice upgraded single bathroom, but the claw tub is deep without a handrail and no suction in-tub bath mat to keep a person from falling. The rain shower is great however. Kitchen has good amenities, and the dining and living room areas are nice. Good amount of seating, large TV. Overall, for an older home, it’s nice and, a big plus, it doesn’t have a musty smell.

This is a really nice property in a great location. Parking is easy for trucks and cars, but would be challenging if you are towing a trailer. Easy access to beach, casinos in Biloxi, and Ocean Springs shop area. Host was very helpful and responsive. We enjoyed our stay.
