PLEASE READ OUR REVIEWS. This is a comment from one of our guests
This is one of the only homes we saw in the entire area that is ground level and not up on stilts. I can't explain how valuable it was to our family to have her able to participate in every activity indoors and out! The accommodations were bordering on luxurious. Due to the small size of our group, everyone had plenty of space in this very large home. We spent a lot of time outdoors enjoying the property. The hot tub was used every evening as was the fire pit for smores. Days and nights were spent fishing and crabbing off the dock. The dock is a very substantial dock with several chairs and a covered bench swing. Fishing was excellent, especially when the tide was moving, during outgoing tides we caught freshwater fish including loads of bluegill, catfish and gar and during incoming tides we caught a mix of redfish, croakers and even sheepshead. We caught a lot of crab in the traps, unfortunately they were mostly undersized. A small alligator frequented the water in the little inlet in front of dock. He was easy to spot and get photos of as long as you approached the dock quietly. Meals were a pleasure to cook, either in the very well-appointed kitchen or on either the gas grill or the green egg just off the back deck (which runs the entire length of the home). Many hours were spent relaxing on the deck with a book, by Grandma, while watching outdoor activities take place. The kitchen had all of the necessities and then some, we brought staples and ended up leaving them unopened because the pantry was so well stocked. There are two grocery stores with in a 10–15-minute drive and we got fresh seafood from fish market daily.
If there are any problems, we or our families' members are usually close by. Minimum stays vary by season and decrease as open dates approach. Prices especially weekdays reduced drastically about two weeks prior if vacant. If you want us to notify you of those reductions let us know. We honor all rates that we post intentionally (we were hacked once in ten years). IF YOU BOOK WITH US OR ANYONE, BE SURE AND SPEAK WITH A LIVE PERSON AFTER BOOKING FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION. if you book with us, we usually call within minutes to verify and always within 24 hours.
Some extra restrictions and rules on motorcycles and motorcycle noise. The neighbors can explain why.
The first one third of a cord of firewood is provided. After that we charge $50 per one third of a cord. That is our cost.
If you purchase insurance, you are responsible for filing claims.
No smoking or vaping inside the house. Smoking permitted on exterior porches and in extremely bad weather in the garage with the garage door open. EXCESSIVE NOISE COMPLAINTS FROM NEIGHBORS will yield full or partial forfeiture of your security deposit of $200 to the charity of the neighbor's choice. Security deposit of $1000 may be required for large bookings. Arrival with more guest than the amount booked for IS GROUNDS FOR cancellation and forfeiture of rent. (A couple of folks, no big deal. NOT TWENTY). Renter must inform owners of extra day guests on the property. Failure to do so is grounds for eviction with forfeiture of rent..............NO HOUSE PARTIES!!!!!!!
For last minute bookings in winter pool may not be 80 degrees but hot tub warms up in 5 hours. Pool will be 80 and hot tub 98 unless we notify you otherwise. Hot tub has been out of service only 2 times in 10 years. House cleaners may still be present if your booking is last minute.
We are quite easy to work with but if you book for 5 people and show up with 32 we are not going to see eye to eye. If we ask a lot of questions when you book, we have been there and have all the T Shirts. We are actually very easy to work with as long as you are not trying to pull one over on us (see reviews).

The house was beautiful and comfortable. The entire family enjoyed our stay. The owners went out of their way to make us feel comfortable and made sure that everything was perfect. We will definitely use this host again. They made us feel like at home.
Great family get away. Lots to do and something for everyone. Owner was great to communicate with and was available if we needed anything. Would definitely go again.
Dick was a great host. The house was welcoming and his communication was superb! The property was very accurate with the listing. It was quiet, private, well stocked and had something for everybody.
We rented this property for a week to combine wedding and honeymoon. This was a lovely place to host a small wedding and reception. A beautiful home with lots of space and plenty to do in the area.
We are so thankful to have found this vacation place.
Dick and Peggy were very attentive to our needs and responded immediately when necessary. The property was amazing everything we needed to have a great family vacation. Thank you we would definitely book this place again.
Great property with extremely accommodating host. We traveled in to area for first time and loved location of home and activities there ! We stayed in a couple days and just enjoyed house , we would definitely go back if in the area !
I recently stayed at the property in Pass Christian and had a fantastic experience! The location was perfect. The property itself was clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described in the listing.The host, Dick, was incredibly responsive and accommodating, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. I especially enjoyed the kitchen, pool, and hot tub.Overall, I highly recommend this house for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing getaway. I can’t wait to return!
The place was perfect for us. The ages of the guest were 2-68. This property was spacious and the grounds and house offered so many various activities for everyone. The owner was extremely accommodating even providing bait for the crab traps.
The setting is very beautiful and peaceful. The atmosphere of the home is amazing! The owners were always readily available with suggestions of great places to eat and what to visit in the area. Easy access to home.
Lovely home lots of room and plenty of beds. Pool was okay, we needed a larger pool but the hot tub was nice. The pool is like a lap pool. Hosts could not have been nicer. Also we requested a later checkout and Mr East was good with it. Great stay!
We had so much fun. Loved the house.Loved the grounds.
Dick was great and so attentive. We had a few questions and he was so quick to respond.
We can’t wait to return!
Plenty of things to do for adults and kids alike. Hot tub and heated pool were a hit for our New Years trip. Canoeing, fishing, basketball, ping pong, pool. You cant be bored. Any pots pans or other dishes needed to cook anything were available and easy to use. Will book this house again.
We had a wedding to attend in Pass Christian and we decided to make it a 3-day weekend family get together. We had 16 Adults and 6 Children. The house had plenty of space to accommodate our group. It was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was large and well equipped. The property own was easy to work with. I would definitely book this place again.
We had a group of 16. There was plenty room for everyone. There is plenty of entertainment at the house for everyone to enjoy. If there is any problem Dick was right there. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. Our 5 year old grandson wanted to go back, he said he would just walk back if we wouldn’t take him😁
We enjoyed our time here. The owner could NOT have been nicer or easier to work with. Felt like more family! The place was spacious, clean and as pictured. We visited in August so the heat kept us in a lot, so I can’t comment much on outdoor activities but there was so much to do on the property. Hot tub, lap pool, pool table, horseshoes, and a net for volleyball, badminton, etc. I recommend this place, especially for a large group.
A wonderful home for a week away from home with all of your family. We had three days of rain but no one was board. There was so much to do at this home and the kitchen was fabulous. Started with a crawfish boil the first night and ended with a shrimp boil the last night not to mention all the great breakfasts in between. We spent many hours on the deck and enjoyed the pool, hot tub and the dock with a visit from Fred(the resident alligator). The beach was beautiful once the weather cleared up. Many thanks to Dick for being so responsive to our requests and having a dining room table for 10 which we managed to squeeze 12 family members around! Great family week!
We had 16 golfers for 8 days and the house and property exceeded our expectations. There was plenty of room for everyone, and unlike many places we have stayed, ample bathroom access. The outdoor space was exceptional as well, with plenty of parking and room to roam(we even parked and hooked up a 32’ RV). We didn’t catch any fish, but did snag a few crabs in the traps that were provided. The hot tub was always hot and pool provided a refreshing splash after a day at the course. Mr. East was the best, as he was easy to communicate with and kept us aware of when maintenance folks were going to be on property. Overall, one of the best properties we’ve experienced in 18 of doing these golf trips, and we will definitely be back.
Dick & Peggy were wonderful hosts. They communicated consistently and informed us about how everything worked in the home. The beautiful home is spacious, organized, and clean. The outdoor areas were well maintained making our time outside very pleasant. Best of all the home was well stocked with paper towels, trash bags, toilet paper, etc. They have thought of everything you need from batteries to bandaids to laundry detergent to beach towels. My siblings and spouses have been vacationing together for over 12 years. This home is the first place to more than adequately supply everything you need for a worry free vacation. We were blessed beyond measure. We hope to return there in the future.

Perfect location, huge home, and everything you need!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home! Dick goes out of his way to make sure the property is equipped with everything we could possibly need. We stay in a lot of vacation rentals and this is by far the most fully equipped with everything you could think of. There’s a lot to do on the property. There are even so many things that aren’t listed on the VRBO description and were a nice surprise when we got there! We stayed 5 days and didn’t have a chance to do everything there is to do. Dick has plenty of items you can use at the beach too! I worried the pool wouldn’t be large enough for us, but there was room for 5 or 6 people to float on big floating pool chairs. We sat on the dock early every morning and later after sunset. Several times we caught glimpses of alligators in the water. There’s a cat named Steve who lives nearby and visited often. We enjoyed him and he made it feel more like home! Pass Christian is a friendly and laid back community and the beaches aren’t heavily populated! The house feels secluded yet is just a short drive to the beach, restaurants and Walmart. We are definitely already trying to figure out when we can come back!!
