About this property
The Porter House - in the heart of Ocean Springs. Easily walk to downtown!
***New Listing*** In one of the best locations in Ocean Springs less than two blocks from the heart of the downtown shopping and restaurant district,
The Porter House is a beautifully maintained two-bedroom (with an additional 3rd sleeping area), 2.5-bathroom two-story property with a fully fenced-in yard.
Located within easy walking distance to historic downtown Ocean Springs and less than a mile from beautiful Front Beach, this home is perfectly situated for your vacation stay.
Newly remodeled with all the amenities you need, The Porter House is ideal for a romantic weekend getaway or week-long family vacations.
Our beautifully decorated space features gleaming hardwood floors throughout and is loaded with all the comforts of home. The spacious kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and custom cabinets stocked with everything you need to prepare delicious meals to have in the large attached dining area.
The living room provides a comfortable place to lounge in front of a large flat-screen Smart TV, perfect for streaming your favorite shows. Local artwork decorates the space throughout the home. There is also a half bath.
The Primary Bedroom with a King bed has a unique feature of an additional Queen bed that can be closed off from the Primary Bedroom, but still provides the opportunity for having loved ones nearby only separated by sliding barn doors (perfect for your young ones). That space also includes a dedicated workspace for those needing to work during their stay.
Attached to the Primary Bedroom is a luxurious fully tiled bathroom with a double vanity, a large walk-in shower, and a soaking tub for ultimate relaxing.
Upstairs is the second bedroom with a Queen bed and a full guest bathroom with shower. Both bedrooms are equipped with flat-screen Smart TVs for streaming your favorite shows.
In the back of the home, you’ll find an outdoor seating area perfect for relaxing in Gulf breezes, and a fully enclosed fence for those bringing their furry friends to run free.
The property is equipped with high-speed wireless Internet, flat-screen TVs, washer & dryer, and much more.
*** Well-behaved dogs are allowed for a $150 non-refundable pet fee. Please select that you will be bringing a pet when making the reservation, or we will need to send an additional payment request after booking.***
***There should be no more than six people on the property unless prior permission is given. No events or parties of any kind. We have installed exterior security cameras for the safety of both guests and property outside of the home. There are no inside cameras.***
While at The Porter House, you’ll feel completely at home and never need to leave the property to have a fantastic stay. But if you can tear yourself away, you’ll find yourself in the heart of the quaint historic town of Ocean Springs golf cart district.
Ocean Springs is a golf cart-friendly town, and we are an easy walk to the local golf cart rental place on Government Street or can provide details to rent one to be delivered to the home.
We are within walking distance to restaurants, unique gift shops, festivals, parades, parks, pickleball courts, museums, and beaches.
