About this property

Elevated Retreat in Coastal Pines

Wake up in the midst of coastal pines and live oaks. An elevated one-bedroom retreat 14 feet up (stairs only), offering simple comforts, local art, and a relaxed, real-home feel.
This is a thoughtfully cared-for space designed for guests who appreciate character, nature, and easy living rather than a hotel-style stay.

You feel as if you are in your own little world.It is so private and magical. I have had several friends and family stay here in the last 2 years, and it was finally time for me to have some quiet time in nature. The inside is simply extraordinary. I can't wait to return.

Wonderful hideaway

We love the house, the wonderfully landscape yard that was hidden behind the trees, just a short walk to the beach where we sat with a bottle of wine and watched the sunset. We will try to stay here again next time, even arrange our schedule based on its availability!

Couples Getaway

This home was perfect for our summer getaway. Very clean, lots of privacy, and well maintained. Stocked with everything you may need and plenty of extras. Close to clean beaches and short drive to Bay St Louis. We enjoyed driving to Biloxi for a Shuckers Baseball game and made a stop at the aquarium.

Perfect romantic retreat or singles get away

This property is well equipped and maintained. The short walk to the Waveland Pier and the close proximity to the charms of Bay St. Louis made my weekend at the Beach House in the Trees perfect. I loved the style of furnishings and the attention to details. The downstairs outdoor area is a lovely, quiet spot to relax or entertain. I will definitely stay again.

Beautiful property close to the beach!

You need to visit this place, this city and this area. What a wonderful experience. We loved it! The bikes were great for going up and down the boardwalk. Short walk to the beach. The house itself is fabulous. Tiny house living at its best! You'll be glad you went as soon as you get there. Don't miss out on a great getaway...enjoy!

Quiet, cozy and almost perfect!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The house was spotlessly clean and incredibly cozy. Every window offered a view of nothing but pure, beautiful nature. Our only wish was for a television. While we knew from the description that there wasn't one, we thought it wouldn't be an issue. However, we occasionally found ourselves missing it during our relaxation time. Despite this, the house is truly one of a kind. We loved our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone! We will definitely love to stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Pye Parson

Host profile image
I love hosting and want my guests to have the best experience possible. I am available for advise as to where to eat and local experiences I recommend.

Why they chose this property

My dream was to live on the Alabama Gulf Coast by water, but I couldn't stand the congestion and long waits at restaurants as Orange Beach exploded. Years later, I found Waveland, MS. I have water and am on an acre of undeveloped land to enjoy nature. I know the owners of the shops and restaurants, and they know me. No waiting in lines: like I imagine "old florida" where your "chef" was the one who caught the fish you are eating.

What makes this property unique

Modern home on an acre of pines and live oaks. 19' ceilings surrounded by windows allow light in and the view of birds out. The bay is a 2 block walk with a wonderful walk/bike path along the water all the way to Bay St Louis (about 2-1/2 miles down).
