About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

1 block from beach with ocean view. Fenced yard with soaking tub on back porch

Please protect your with travel insurance as i follow my cancellation policy.
You will know you are on vacation from the moment you walk through the door. Every room is a reflection of life on the coast. Decorated with local art and photos of historic Gulfport. The furniture was custom ordered to ensure a look you won't find anywhere else. With an open floor plan, friends and family can visit with each other while sitting in the kitchen or reclining on the sofa. There is a great view of the Mississippi Sound from the living room. Soft cream hardwood floors flow throughout the house.

Each bedroom has its own unique style. The master bedroom has a queen size bed and 26'' wall mounted flat panel TV. Attached bathroom with antique claw foot tub and a walk-in marble shower. The second bedroom has a tall king size bed, and 32'' wall mounted flat panel TV. The third bedroom has two full size beds & 32" tv, & french doors leading out to the deck and backyard. The third bedroom is the only door going into the back yard. Most people prefer to use that instead of the side door going out from laundry room.

All three bedrooms have room darkening curtains for the times you want a mid-day nap after an early round of golf, a fishing adventure, or maybe all night gambling. When you are hanging out in the living room enjoy the huge 60'' TV in a custom built entertainment center.
We offer Directv streaming for live tv on any two of the tvs simultaneously. All have firestick apps for free streaming.

The house is located on a quiet historical street one block north of US90 (Beach Blvd). If you enjoy walks with your pet or family this is the street for you. We are one block from gorgeous white sandy beaches and a park is within walking distance with tennis courts and a playground.

Gulfport & Biloxi have numerous seafood and local restaurants. The closest & my favorites are less than a mile away.

Spend time outdoors in our yard, fully enclosed with a privacy fence. Cook on the gas grill while kids play on 'hopscotch' walkway. An outdoor table and chairs provides plenty of room for dining and a covered porch keeps you out of the sun while waiting on your meal. We just added a deck with pergola to the corner of the yard which provides more seating and night time ambience.

The Ship Island Excursion docks just two miles from the house. In just 10 minutes you are at the Island View Casino in Gulfport or in 20 minutes you can be at one of the many casinos in Biloxi. Take a day trip to New Orleans 60 miles away.

The golf courses are too many to name. We invite you to stay at the Gulf Breeze Cottage and enjoy the year round fun the gulf coast has to offer! Please note the maximum occupancy of 8 at the Gulf Breeze Cottage and minimum age of renter 25.
If traveling in large groups and looking for multiple houses please check out our other property walking distance from the Cottage.

If you are not familiar with Gulfport there are a couple things we like our prospective guests to know. There are train tracks that run approximately two blocks north of the beaches. You will be able to hear trains run from most anywhere you stay that you have access to the beaches. We personally love the beaches and the water there. Some people though are disappointed since they expect large waves and clear water. This is the Mississippi Sound and the water has a murky quality to it. It is very shallow and you can walk out in it without it getting very deep for quite a ways. We find the beaches peaceful by our house and seldom crowded. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and everyone has their own opinion of the perfect beach.

WE WANT OUR GUESTS TO BE AWARE THAT WE WILL NOT REQUEST A WIRE TRANSFER, WE WILL NEVER ASK YOU FOR ONE. We will initiate any payment request thru secure sites that offer protection for you. If you wish to confirm that any email that comes from us is legitimate, please call us 423-595-6850 Accepted payment is mailing a check, payment thru VRBO/Homeaway or Intuit Quickbooks.

Great view
Property was very close to everything we wanted to do. House was spacious, clean, and well equipped. Fenced yard was great for our dog. The Mardi Gras parade on the street in front of the house was an added bonus. Watching the ships in gulf waters was relaxing. Contact with owner was easy. Would highly recommend if going to the coast. We will stay again if going to Gulfport.

We always enjoy our cottage visit- so special to have our 3 1/2 year old Granddaughter stay with us! She equates “the cottage” as Gammy and Poppy’s cottage a few blocks from her house. Very special. Very homey. A wonderful experience every time 💖

Perfect location
We came for Mardi Gras and visit with family and friends. Because we lived on the coast before, we knew the area. An extra bonus was a small parade right down the street. The house felt like home. The living room had comfortable group seating for long overdue conversations with family. The kitchen had all we needed but the coast has so many great restaurants to enjoy. We would love to return.

Nice cottage close to the beach!
This cottage is cute as can be and in a pretty nice neighborhood close to the beach. An easy drive to Mobile to the East or New Orleans to the West made day trips fun. If you stay in colder weather you may find the heat pump doesn't keep you as comfortable as a forced furnace, but that's just our personal preference. We would definitely book this property again!

Wonderful house little house close to the beach
The property is very well kept. I loved the fenced area outside. That was perfect for our little dog. The orange tree in the back yard produces very tasty fruit! The inside of the house is very nice. Plenty of room for me and my family. The layout is roomy. You can see the water out the front windows, which was a beautiful site. Just a short stroll over to the beach. The claw foot bathtub and shower stall in the master suite was spectacular!!! Unfortunately it was cooler weather when we were there and didn’t get to try out the soaking tub on the back porch. The only things I thought were a negative is trying to get across the highway to get to the beach was a bit tricky if you walk over. There are no stop lights or crossings and it is a 4 lane highway. If driving over there are plenty of spots for parking. The other thing was the house is rather close to a train track. It sounds like the train is going to come through the house. Very loud and they run all throughout the day and night. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Our favorite rental yet
The photos of this property do not do the home justice. There was more than enough room for everyone to have their own space (myself, my husband, and our kids ages 15, 10, 8, and 3). It was very clean and well stocked. You're a short 5-10 minute drive to nearly anything you need. The bathroom in the front bedroom is the thing of every girl's dream! There are lovely little touches throughout the property, such as the hopscotch stepping stones by the back porch. Truly a remarkable place to stay for the whole family.

A Good Time was had by All
We enjoyed our stay at this property. We visited Gulfport to celebrate the 10th birthday of our twin grandsons. The house has charming architectural details that I loved and there was plenty of space for 2 boys to spread out. It was clean and adequate for our needs. We had a couple of questions and Donna was very responsive. This is a wonderful property for couples traveling together, for a girlfriends trip or for families with children. The location is perfect. The beach is visible from the front yard. We hope to return one day.
