Great location! Only 1 block to the beach and easy walking distance to everything downtown. Ocean Springs is a super fun town to visit! We will be back here for another stay!
We loved our stay at this property. The location was absolutely perfect for easy beach and town access. The bed was comfortable and the place had everything needed for a long weekend trip. The place is nicely decorated, very clean, and the communication was very good. Couldn't have asked for more and will book again if in the area.
Great location. Convenient to beach and a little walk to downtown. Quiet. Had all our needs. Excellent communication with host. Great little spot to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary!
Staying at any of the Oak shade suites & house is always a good experience. Cleanliness of bathroom could’ve used some improvement. Not sure what was on the surface of the tub. Extra blanket had large burn hole. Replacing it would be good. I would definitely stay again. Very comfortable bed. Excellent location. Thank you so much.
We had a really great stay in the King Suite.
What a great town for walking and the location of this property is ideal.
We look forward to our next stay here!
Thank you!
Great location! Close enough to restaurants and shopping but when you’re ready to relax the neighborhood is quiet and serene.

This property is a wonderful place for a couple. The king sized bed is so comfortable. The location is so quiet and felt very safe. We rode our bikes to the beach and walked to dinner. The nearest restaurant is about a half mile away, but it was an easy walk and better yet on a bike. We would definitely book this property again.
The location, booking, communication were all great. The description of the space was accurate. The problem was the cleanliness of the room and property. Also we needed more towels and the towels that were there smelled mildewed, like they had been left wet in the washer for too long.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the location, booking process, and communication to be great and that the listing matched your expectations.
That said, we’re surprised by your comments regarding cleanliness, as the overwhelming majority of our guests leave five-star reviews and specifically mention how clean the suite is. We take pride in maintaining a high standard, and maybe you were referring to our floors are thoroughly mopped after each and every guest. Because of the type of stone used, they may appear stained in places, but rest assured they are clean.
As for the towels, we wish you had reached out during your stay. The laundry room is located directly next to the King Suite, and guests are welcome to grab additional clean towels at any time. We would have been more than happy to assist you right away had we known.
We appreciate you staying with us and hope to have the chance to host you again.
