Castaway Key Beach House

Now with High Speed Internet

Belle Fontaine Beach is the perfect place to enjoy the private natural beauty of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. A beach front community on two miles of live oak lined winding road which follows a beautiful white sand beach on the Mississippi Sound. There is a plethora of wildlife from many species of fish and seabirds to the south and alligators and red foxes to the northern bayou. Get away from the condo crowd and enjoy the privacy of your private beach.

This newly built home features three bedrooms and two baths. The master has ocean views, king bed, and private bath with separate tub and shower with a double vanity. The other two bedrooms feature bayou views and share a bath. Both guest rooms have queen beds. All bedrooms have YouTube TV on Roku devices and 40" TV's. The living room has cathedral ceilings and an open floor plan. It features leather furniture with a sleeper sofa and a 60" TV with YouTube TV subscription on a Roku streaming device. Most streaming apps such a Netflix, Disney +, Hulu, HBO Max, Prime, and ESPN are also available on the Roku if you want to use your own account. We only provide a YouTube TV subscription, which has most of the local, sports, and other channels you are use to getting on cable. Bedrooms, living room, and kitchen have hardwood floors. The kitchen has stainless appliances, refrigerator/freezer, range oven, dishwasher, microwave, and all the pots, pans, charcoal BBQ, utensils, flatware, and dinnerware you need to cook family meals. We also have a full size washer and dryer. Our 600 sqft covered deck has a sitting area and chaise lounges and is steps away from your private beach. There is also a fire pit just before the beach. Kayaks and crab pots (to catch blue crabs) are also included in your rental.

We can arrange day/half day trips to Horn Island to fish or just enjoy the beach that inspired Walter Anderson. Pick up and Drop Off right on the beach in front of the house.

Concierge Service to custom fit your vacation.

We had a wonderful stay! The house had everything we needed. Being right on the beach was perfect for our little ones. The big porch was my favorite spot. A bigger grill would have been helpful. The yard and path to the beach being mowed would have been nice, but it didn't stop us from getting to the water. Our stay and the yard maintenance schedule probably didn't align.

Relaxing on the beach

We had a wonderful time and were totally thrilled with the place. We found many places to eat for dinner. It was so so nice to walk out the door and be on the beach. We were very happy that we could leave our stuff on the beach for lunch and not worry about anything. The porch was wonderful to sit on and watch the birds. We even saw a nest on a house just down from us. It was cool watching mom and dad fed the youngsters.

Great memories

When we got there we had already received the instructions to get in. It was super easy. After that, we unloaded the car and got the beach. The kids loved it and had so much fun. Really, we all did. We had plans to go to Ocean Springs and sight see but we couldn't bring ourselves to leave the property the whole time we were there. There are so many things to do, ride bikes, kayak, build same castles, fly kites, hunt for crabs, among so many other things. The house was perfect. It was clean and stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Thanks so much for having us and we definitely plan on coming back.

Celebrating my Birthday

We just loved every minute! The HUGE porch was where we lived all week! Even in the rain(and boy can it rain) it was awesome! We were lucky enough to see dolphins and laughed at the funny pelicans dive bombing. We walked the beach, took the ferry to ship island, shopped in ocean springs, went on an eco tour, visited the park, ate seafood every day! It was so incredible. The southern hospitality was everywhere. And the owner was immediate with our questions and so fast in her responses! Loved Mississippi!! Come and stay!
