It was perfect for what we needed! Close to the beach and baseball fields! Host was very accommodating and responsive! Check in was easy! Will definitely stay here again if we are back in the area!
Our family enjoyed our stay. It was Very clean and nice. The host was nice and checked in daily to see if our needs was being met. We loved that the stove knobs were baby proof too! Overall experience was wonderful!
Judy was fantastic. The location was ideal for big families. You could see the ocean at the end of the road! The home was clean, and well-appointed. If you're going to Gulfport, this is a must stay! 5 stars! We will be back!
This house was perfect for our trip. The house was clean and well stocked with plenty of room inside and outside to hang out and have meals. The kids loved the backyard and the swing set. The beach is just 2 blocks away and an easy walk. We will definitely be booking again.
We had a great stay. The home was set up well for bringing my pet with a nice size fenced in backyard. Also, plenty of room for multiple cars. The house has been updated nicely and clean. We enjoyed our stay.
Judith and Ricky were great hosts, they were very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any need we had. The location was perfect for our needs and close to the beach, restaurants and the activities we were interested in.
We ran out of toilet paper and couldn't reach the property manager, but that is the only issue. Otherwise, it was a lovely stay and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

So glad you had a wonderful stay. We supply a starter supply of essentials to help you start your vacation, but don’t replenish supply during your stay. Come back soon.
Host was very responsive and attentive to our quality of our stay. The home is very comfortable with updated quality appliances. The location of the home is very good for travel to local beaches, Gulfport restaurants, shops, activities and convenient to travel in either direction and the Mississippi coast.
We really enjoyed our stay at the SHORTWALK2BEACH property. The house was clean and accommodating to all our needs. We liked the size of the fenced in backyard which gave plenty of room for our pups to play. I would definitely stay here again.
Easy location to get to the beach and drive along Beach Blvd. Worked perfect for our group of 6. The host was very prompt with response to questions. House was clean and enough seating at the table and living room for 6.
The house is amazing, it is beautiful and clean just like the description. There is literally anything you would need on a stay at the beach. Judith was so wonderful asking if we needed anything during our stay, absolutely happy with this stay and I can’t wait to stay again.
This place was awesome and perfect for a large family of 4 kids and a dog. The host has everything especially for kids and family. The swing set was great for the little ones and the bigger kids and adults had all kinds of games and outdoor things to do. A great large table outside for picnics. The fenced in yard was perfect for the little ones and the dog. We could have walked to the beach but the kids had so many things with them for treasure hunting and making sand castles, we just drove as there is parking on the beach right down the road from the property. Will definitely come back!!!
Great location and a great place. The host was super friendly and helpful, she even wished me a happy birthday! 10/10 recommend. Also great food nearby. We ate at Shaggy’s a few times and walked to the beach, which is only five minutes from the house. We had a lovely time!
