I rented this property so my husband could relax & unwind, while celebrating his birthday weekend with all his favorite authentic Jamaican dishes. It was wonderful to watch him fish & be outside relaxing near the water. He really enjoyed this vacation spot. It was like being at home with the lake as an added bonus. It was just what we expected, very clean & very neat. We would love to visit again.

Dog feces

Property was in a decent location and clean. There was dried dog feces found under ottoman in living area. Cracked tiles throughout home and uneven flooring seemed unsafe.This home could definitely use some improvements for the price. We would not stay here again.

Comfortable and roomy

The house was very roomy and we loved the view but it is overpriced for the condition and cleanliness of the house. Several minor maintenance issues and deck was pretty dirty. Owners were very responsive and accommodating. Also, we would prefer something closer to the beach.

Spring Break Family Getaway

Loved the property! Views are amazing. We all enjoyed it. Weather wasn’t in our favor as it got really chilly. Boys were able to fish, but didn’t catch anything. Only complaint and it’s not even big is the showers are small and lighting in bathrooms isn’t great! Other than that we would definitely come again!

Christmas in Mississippi

Family went to Mississippi to be with the rest of the family stationed a Keesler AFB. Rented this BNB almost a year ahead. The cost was very reasonable. We enjoyed our stay very much, although one of the paddle boats doesn't have a rudder that we could find. The house was clean, but in need of a little repair. Nothing cause us any issues, though. The memories we made were absolutely worth the small inconveniences. Also, love the water front, but the yard/driveway flood when the tide comes in and it's raining! :)
