About this property

Casual Waterfront Living With Private Dock! Location only minutes to Beach

A sensational waterfront vacation home rental, Young at Heart is located on a backwater cove along the beautiful Mississippi Gulf Coast. This home offers you the retreat of a lifetime.

Enjoy the waterfront location with private dock, fishing, kayaking, crabbing and bird watching. Fire up the grill, relax and don't forget to enjoy the beautiful sunsets.

Bring your boat! A boat ramp is located at the community center within easy walking distance! There are also boat rental and charter fishing services available nearby.

Of course you can fish right off the private dock too and there are a few kayaks, paddles, and life vests for use. There are a few basic fishing rods but you will probably prefer to bring your own fishing gear as well as bait and tackle. The dock is equipped with lighting for night fishing and a fish cleaning station.

The home is in a quiet location of Gulfport near Biloxi and very close to beaches! By car you are only minutes from casinos, outlet mall shopping, island ferry service, dining and entertainment. Children will love the local parks with splash pads and the beach, or take them to the new Mississippi Aquarium, the Lynn Meadows Discovery Center, Gulf Islands Water Park, the Ocean Adventures Marine Park at the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies, or on a Ferry ride to Ship Island.

You are just an hour or so drive from Dauphin Island where lots of shells can be found on the west end. About the same driving time to the southwest is the New Orleans French Quarter. This home is also in a great location to visit Biloxi, downtown Gulfport, Old Town Bay St. Louis, local shops of Ocean Springs, the Hattiesburg Zoo and so much more.

This home has a large covered deck overlooking the waterfront. There's a lot to do in the area but you don't need to leave the house to have fun. You can find plenty of relaxation right at home. There's also a park within walking distance with playground, tennis courts and a long boardwalk along the bayou.

The house has been equipped for your comfort and ease of access.

The bedrooms are separated and the guest room is furnished with two queens with tub/shower. The master suite is king size with private bath featuring a separate tub and shower. All rooms open to the second story deck with balcony railing and amazing waterfront views.

Home is equipped with premium television with a huge flat screen and unlimited high speed WiFi. Flat screen TVs are also located in each bedroom.

The home is appointed with quality furnishings and decorated professionally with a coastal flavor.

Hidden treasure on back bay
Beautiful and comfortable home located in the heart of the coast. Back porch overlooks a beautiful bay and private boat dock. We loved being able to let our small dog wander in the fenced yard. The home is on stilts so there are stairs to climb but we found it to be invigorating. The description of rental was accurate. The home was very clean and provided everything we needed for a two-week stay with friends. The owner, Eric, was friendly, kind and helpful. We used the Kayaks and the fishing poles. The best part though, was watching the sunsets every evening. There wasn’t anything that we didn’t enjoy about this place. The rental also had great hot showers and comfortable beds. We look forward to visiting again.

Always Relaxing with Adventure Nearby!
The home is beautiful and very well kept. Eric is always welcoming and has good recommendations about restaurants and activities! Trace is still a joy to watch! We could return here routinely - Oh, we do, and hope to continue! Thank you, Eric!

Beautiful!
This is a wonderful place to spend time away from home. In fact, it feels like home! Even though the weather didn't fully cooperate, there were so many things to do nearby that we stayed as busy as we wanted to every day. We saw two of the resident eagles, a small alligator a couple of coves away, and several herons spent time on our dock! Eric is always available for questions and he maintains this house very well. And, of course, Trace is a joy to watch! Thank you, Eric, for another lovely get away!

Gulf Coast Visit
We really enjoyed our stay. Eric was a great host. The view off the back porch was amazing. We loved being able to walk out on the dock behind the house and jump on our boat. Eric was very helpful with boating tips and places to go. He even helped me launch the boat. We highly recommend renting this property! Hoping to go back again soon.

Wonderful Waterfront Getaway
We stayed for four nights during Cruisin' The Coast and towed our classic car. There was ample parking for the truck, trailer, and car. And the owner, Eric, even offered for us to park in the grass or his driveway (next door) if we invited guests back to the property. The house was really great. Very clean, new appliances, memory foam mattresses, big television, nice linens, and fully stocked kitchen. A safe neighborhood just far enough removed from the congestion and traffic on Beach Blvd. We hope to stay again.
