About this property

WHISPERING SANDS COTTAGE, 2 PETS STAY FREE, GULF VIEW,

For more information or questions about our cottage, use "Ask owner a question".

Bring your children and pets to enjoy your vacation at our lovely spacious Whispering Sands Cottage. Watch the sunrise on the Gulf of Mexico from the deck or walk 2 blocks to the beach for a panoramic view from the fishing pier. Have coffee, read a book or just relax on a swing on our new front porch.

This gulf view cottage was built in 2008 after Hurricane Katrina destroyed the original house in August 2005.

The decor of this cottage will make you feel right at home. The Master bedroom has a poster bed and it's own private bath. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the 3rd bedroom has 2 twin beds. The couch folds out for an additional queen bed, and there is a rollaway if you need a extra bed. All bedrooms have TVs.

This cottage has a large living room with flat screen TV. Hardwood floors . The kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances and ceramic tile flooring and is fully equipped for all your cooking needs. The laundry has a stack washer and dryer. The deck has a gas grill and overlooks the park with a view of the water. The new front porch has table and chairs, porch swing and comfortable furniture for relaxing.

The cottage is easily accessible with 4 entry steps. There are grab bars in the main bath and comfort hight commodes.

Bring up to 2 pets for free and walk them in the park across the street which features walking paths, children's playground equipment and a splash pad water feature to cool off on those hot summer days. If you want to exercise the community center is across the street to the north with a full fitness center open to the public.

We have many championship golf courses on the coast. The new aquarium is open across from Jones Park 1 1/2 miles east on Beach Blvd. There are 12 casinos (Island View Casino is 3 blocks away), Charter fishing boats, Schooner sailings, Great restaurants and Oyster Bars, or take the Ship Island Excursion Boat and enjoy the white sand beaches and crystal clear waters of the barrier islands.

Children will love the park with the splash pad and the beach, or take them to the Lynn Meadows Discovery Center, Gulf Islands Water Park, The Center for Marine Education and Research, or on the Shrimp Boat Excursion where dolphins jump along side the boat most days.

If you want to take a day trip New Orleans is just 80 miles away. Take the scenic route (Hwy 90) and see the Old Fort and nature up close ( you might just see an alligator in the road).

Family vacation trip
We had a nice stay at the cottage. It is very close to the beach but, the gulf view from the cottage is really small. Most of the piers in the area are closed due to damage, but still the overall stay was nice. The home is quant and clean.

Whispering Sands
This property was well appointed and very clean. The only thing we would have liked to have was on property rather than street parking.

Comfortable house close to the beach
We came down for Jeepin the Coast. The house was in a very convenient location. Nancy was quick to respond and made checking in very easy. She left us brownies for our arrival. The house was very clean and comfortable. I really appreciate that she allowed our pets. Everything you could ever need is provided. Spices, games, beach toys, movies and more. We hope be back next year.

Whispering Sands Cottage
When searching for a weekend getaway or a destination for our family gathering, I always have a specific vision in mind. The Whispering Sands Cottage exceeded my expectations and came incredibly close to being the perfect place I had imagined. It offered the ideal size for our group, and its exceptional pet-friendly policy was a significant advantage. Moreover, we were delighted to find the cottage in impeccable cleanliness upon our arrival. The front porch of the cottage provided a wonderful spot to relax in the evenings, either sitting or swinging, while catching up with each other. The layout of the front parlor and kitchen was well thought out and allowed for seamless integration of activities such as cooking, dining, and socializing. The cottage was adorned with charming furnishings that created a cozy and familiar atmosphere, truly making it feel like a home away from home. Additionally, the beach was conveniently located just a block away, making it easily accessible for mesmerizing sunsets or invigorating sunrises. Highly Recommended!

About the host

Hosted by Nancy

Host profile image
We are from Michigan and love the Mississippi Gulf Coast. We have 2 cottages on the same street where we spend the winters with our family and friends. When we are not using them we have decided to rent them as vacation rentals for others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Whispering Sands is centrally located with easy access to the beach, park, and all other vacation attractions.

What makes this property unique

Cottage is large enough to Brin your entire family to make vacation memories to last a lifetime and if it rains you can watch movies, play board games or enjoy the large front porch.
