My guests and I loved our stay ! The property is very cute and great for pictures and casual lounging. The little town within walking distance has everything you need besides a large commercial store and is also very cute. Any issues or concerns were answered immediately and very professionally.

Great location

Perfect location within walking distance to the Gulfport restaurants, shops and park. We were visiting family close by, so we only used the house to shower and sleep, which was acceptable for our needs. The courtyard needs some work as the grass and weeds were too high making access to the outdoor furniture difficult.

Clean and quiet

We really enjoyed our stay. It was on the water, which my wife loved. Several times we walked to the park and once we walked out to eat locally. The property seems out of the way, down side streets, but we weren’t really that far from anything. The property was very clean and the property manager responded very well to all of our questions.
