My sister and I enjoyed this 1 bedroom apartment so very much. Beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean the host had thought of every detail. The kitchen was well stocked and the host left home baked goodies for us 2 mornings. She told us places to visit and restaurants to try! Each suggestion was delightful. I recommend this property to any and everyone who visits Ocean Springs, Ms. we will return!
The place was neat, accurately described, and in close proximity to downtown Ocean Springs. While close to both the beach and downtown, it was also quiet and peaceful as well.
I loved this place. It was beautiful and very comfortable. The hosts were lovely. The location was perfect. I would definitely recommend it to friends.
Perfect for our needs. Owners very hospitable and paid a lot of attention to detail, providing all the little extras that make a real difference. Ideally situated for exploring the area. Cannot fault it.

We both loved it here
Beautifully appointed, clean, quiet, well described. We just loved our stay and look forward to going back. It was so nice to be close enough to downtown, but in a peaceful, lovely neighborhood near the ocean and the harbor. So very restful. And fun!
This is the perfect spot in Ocean Springs- the condo had everything we needed and was perfectly decorated - Mike & Maureen were fabulous hosts- loved the pecan muffins! Bike riding around town was so much fun and all the restaurant recommendations were spot on. We can’t wait to go back- wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Our experience was perfect ! Mike and Maureen are lovely people with a lovely home really made you feel welcomed everything was available in the apartment. It was quiet,it was clean, felt spacious spacious ,the bed felt comfortable. They even had their famous pecan muffins that they make, ready to eat after a long trip!
Our stay was only a couple of days but looking forward to a return visit in the Spring. So impressed with the cleanliness of this VRBO! Everything was perfect for a short stay... that is, with the exception of the weather which no one had control of!
I awoke every morning to the smell of sea air and sights of boats at the harbor. Perfect location to beach and downtown area. The owner even made me scones for breakfast the day I checked out. #quaintvillagetown #downtownshopspubscafes
