Shearwater Cottage was the perfect stay for our 3 day get away. The property was beautiful and secluded. Donald and Leigh Ann furnished the cottage with all necessities for our stay. We will definitely stay at Shearwater Cottage again.

Beautiful Cottage for Quiet Getaway
This cottage was perfect for a relaxing time in Ocean Springs. It was beautifully appointed with local art, custom woodwork and charming hosts. They thought of everything you might need while staying here, including the delicious muffins that were provided on the first day. It was close to museums, shopping and restaurants. The view was wonderful and we enjoyed the pier. We will definitely stay again when visiting Ocean Springs!

Beautiful cottage
This cottage was about a mile from Downtown Ocean Springs but felt a world away. It is nestled in a quiet setting with access to a pier on the Biloxi Bay, which was a great place to watch sunsets. The cottage is pristine and has all of the comforts of home. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return for another visit soon.

Lovely cottage with gorgeous views
The cottage is lovely, set amidst oak trees with a beautiful water view. Homebaked muffins, along with other goodies, greated us upon arrival. We sat on the pier and watched the sunset. Owners were friendly and informative as to options around town. This will be our go to rental for our future stays.

This was by far the best experience we've ever had booking through VRBO. The property exceeds any pictures or descriptions listed, and the owner is the standard for which all rental owners should aspire to be. Could not recommend this place enough!

Weekend getaway
What a perfectly situated and quaint property this was. It felt like home. To wake up every morning with the view of the water and just the property itself was well worth it. It’s very close to government Street but yet far enough a way to have some isolation from the traffic. I would highly recommend this property.

What a beautiful hidden gem! This cozy cottage is so close to downtown yet seems so far away. With great views of the water. We enjoyed walks along the path through the live oak trees down to the pier. You can see beautiful sunsets and at night an amazing view of the city light across the sound.We will definitely be back!

Ocean Springs Cottage
This was the cutest most comfortable cottage we have ever rented. It is equipped with everything needed for an enjoyable stay and the grounds were so tranquil and serene that you can’t help but feel calm and relaxed. It’s only a short walk to the pier on the bay where we saw porpoises on our first day and beautiful sunsets. While sipping our coffee on the porch we saw squirrels, cardinals, bluejays, a woodpecker and oddly enough a box turtle. It’s only a short drive to East Beach or downtown Ocean Springs. The bed was super comfy and everything was in working order. Can’t wait for a return visit.
