Easter on the coast

Our stay in Long Beach was wonderful! The rental was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. We especially enjoyed relaxing on the front porch in the rocking chairs. Lori was a great host, very attentive to our needs. One minor suggestion: a new grill would be a nice addition. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely recommend this rental.

Perfect Beach Get Away

Our family stayed at the Magnolia Beach cottage for a week over the 4th of July. It was absolutely perfect! The house was super clean, had everything we needed and was less than one minute from the beautiful Mississippi Coast. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt very safe. We loved the Long Beach area and recommend you hit up the ice cream shop in downtown!

Perfect Vacation Home!

The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our vacation. There were ample towels, kitchen supplies, and outdoor/beach items. The location was ideal to go to the beach everyday and plenty of restaurants and stores were within a short driving distance. The vacation guide provided by the owner was a nice way to learn about the area and all it had to offer. We liked the house so much, we added an extra day into our stay. It was well worth the twelve hour drive and we hope to use the house again for future vacations!

Very nice set up!!

This house is in a fabulous location, AND it is one of the best equipped homes we have stayed in. The housewares are practical and nice, the only thing we needed to purchase was food. We have stayed at other houses where they left you one trash bag, no beach towels and very little detergent for dishes/clothes. This place is perfect in our opinion. THANK YOU for a great stay!!

Peaceful Get Away

We rented over the New Years Holiday! It was so homey and very clean! Very nice beds and pillows and just a walk to the beach! All the amenities you would ever need! The beach was all ours! And just a short walk! We were diligent with our fur baby and was allowed to stay with us. It was a home away from home for us. The information book was priceless! Had history and local information of the area. The bagel shop was adorable as a hint,don't miss it! Thanks again for our stay!!!

Just bring your clothes and relax!

Everything was wonderful! Lori is a great host and we were so glad to meet her! Nice to know she lives nearby. House was very clean with an open layout. Very comfortable! Everything we needed was close including some great restaurants. The house is well stocked with anything you could possibly need with the exception of the food for your meals. Very quiet and friendly neighborhood. We loved the front porch and people always waving as they walked by. Thank you for the “Things to do” brochure we printed out. Greatly appreciated when planning some of our day trips. We will definitely return next year! Joe and Fran

Wonderful stay

We took a family trip & stayed in this home with my husband, mother and my 5 & 2 year old. The location was great, very close to the beach. Kitchen was stocked, bedrooms were clean, bathrooms were clean. Property owner Lori is super nice.. we accidentally left my sons favorite stuffed animal and she had no problem shipping it back to us. My ONLY complaint would be the train :( it came by every night we stayed - overnight multiple times which woke us up around 2am and again and 430am. Also, the street had heavy traffic so we had to keep a very close watch on the kids. But other than that, everything was perfect :)
