My husband and I had one of the most beautiful times together on our stay at your home. Everything was perfect and we loved it there. Your home was just as beautiful in person as the pictures had shown. I would highly recommend your home to anyone that wants to have a quiet, relaxing and peaceful getaway.
The house was very nice and clean, short drives by boat or vehicle to downtown Bay St.Louis, host and property owner very nice and supportive, would definitely stay again.
Well maintained, fully move in usable. If you’ve forgotten something, it is there. Super comfortable and beautifully decorated home. There is so much to do in the area and only an hour away from New Orleans. We sat out on the deck first thing in the morning and at night. Loved the home.
I highly recommend this home. We had an amazing stay in Bay St. Louis. This home is just as shown in the photos- clean, beautiful, and well appointed. This home will serve you well as a base to the larger surrounding area or as a quiet retreat. The porch is amazing for morning coffee or a family meal. The view of the canal is wonderful. The surrounding neighborhood is quiet and safe. There are plenty of games and outdoor pursuits to keep everyone happy and occupied. I really enjoyed our vacation and certainly hope to return in the future!
Spotless. Plenty of room. Great floorplan. Top of the line furnishings. Easy booking. Well secured. Nice lock entry. Very comfortable. Great Deck. Nice TVs and music systems. Booked this area last 5 yrs, this one the best yet. Plan to return. Friendly owners as nd VRBO folks
Everything about the house was amazing and perfect! Beautiful, clean, comfortable. Equipped with Everything you could need! James and Rusty were so wonderful to deal with! Highly recommend!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is quiet and secluded yet close to dining and attractions.
The home is extremely clean, well maintained and relaxing. The place is stocked with games, outdoor activities, internet and streaming TV.
You could be content never leaving the property.
Communication with the owners was easy & friendly.
This property and owners are very dog friendly. That’s important to us as a family. My dog is also my work partner so she deserves a vacation like I do.
I can’t recommend this location enough. I will try to stay here every time we visit the MS Gulf Coast.
Property was clean, excellent communication with owner, and had all of the amenities we needed. Location is about a 10 minute drive to downtown Bay St. Louis / beaches. We had a great time and would stay at this location again
My husband, adult daughter, and I, along with our two dogs, spent Memorial Day weekend at Rockheart Retreat. What a fantastic place!! We've had a lot of things going on in our family recently --- all positive but stressful. We desperately needed a get-away to rest and relax, and Rockheart Retreat was the perfect place for us to re-charge.
It is just as described. The home hit all of my marks for a great VRBO stay ---- the kitchen was well equipped; the beds were comfortable with nice linens; the towels were plentiful; and, most importantly, the house was clean! There were plenty of extras, too, such as the assortment of games and DVDs, fishing equipment, kayaks, pet bowls, and a friendly neighborhood puppy. The most popular feature of the home for our crew was the wonderful porch with party lights, fans, and comfy furnishings looking out over the canal. We spent a good bit of time there. Our hosts were gracious, kind, and very hospitable. We will be back!
We loved staying here, the property was perfect for us and had a great outdoor space (including a couple kayaks!), a fully stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. While we never met the owners, they were very attentive with the check-in process and provided all the info about the property we could need. If we ever make it back to this area, we would definitely stay here again!
