Great Gathering Place
The Garden Retreat was just the right place for us to stay during our visit. Close enough to feel part of the action but far enough away to not feel overwhelmed. Beds were comfortable and neighbors were friendly!

Worthwhile Garden Get Away
We really enjoyed our time at "The Garden Retreat." It is centrally located to downtown Ocean Springs. We walked to a couple of local spots from it. The house was roomy and it was nice to spread out. Our host Rose was great and getting in to the place was super simple. We would stay there again.

Perfect Vacation Spot
The home was everything we needed to enjoy a great beach vacation. The neighborhood was quiet, but close to lots of great places to eat. We were only a few minutes away from Biloxi Beach, and all the fun that Biloxi has to offer. We're looking forward to coming back!

We were down in Ocean Springs for a long weekend with some friends and the Garden House was just the ticket. Close to old downtown and the beach, with great new appliances and super furnishings. It was a great location, very clean and spacious. Enjoyed our time there and will visit again.
