Cozy bungalow half a mile to East Beach - Pet Friendly
A very cozy and comfortable bungalow that is near East Beach and walking / biking trails in Davis Bayou Area (Gulf Island National Seashore Park). With a large and private back deck, you will enjoy the morning coffee while listening to the birds!
Wish it had not just snowed! The deck looked like a great place to hang out but the snow was still melting on it when we were there. The architecture was like no home we had been before. Large bedroom. Small bathroom. It was just minutes to drive to Tatonut and the shops and restaurants and beach. Cute town.
Loved our stay here, such a cool place. It was also so nice that they already had paper goods, soap, and washing pods for the weekend. The house was very comfortable and had a very secluded feeling even though it was in a neighborhood. The area is just beautiful!!
Overall the property was amazing! It was a little strange not have true privacy with the windows in the living room. It would have been nice to have curtains. Enjoyed the stay however.
The Ishee styled house was just perfect, and the host was responsive to any questions we had. It was beautifully appointed, and had a gorgeous deck with privacy. The house is in a convenient area to everything in Ocean Springs. We will be back.
The house was very inviting and the deck made it even better.
We especially loved the fact that we could drive to the beach in 5 minutes or so. Also, downtown was very easy to access and lots of shops and restaurants within minutes.
Our stay couldnât have been better! It was so enjoyable spending time on the private deck and listening to the birds! The bungalow is even better in person than it looks in the photos!
We went out for dinner both nights m, itâs only a short drive to downtown.
Weâre already planning our return trip to celebrate our anniversary this summer.
House was perfect. Quiet neighborhood, nice private porch(except for a very cute, friendly cat we enjoyed) quick drive to anything you want to see or do. We wish we had brought our bikes; next time. Host messaged to check if we needed anything or had any questions. We didn't but it was nice to know she was just a text away if something came up.
Bamboo BungalowAt the risk of increasing the competition to book the Bungalow, I post this very favorable review. The quality of vacation rentals begin with the hosts. In this case, Ashley deserves much praise. She and Stephen bought and renovated this property a few years ago. We loved the furnishings and art. Everything worked; the TV is functional with minimal learning curve. The deck is where you will want to hang out to read and decompress. The neighborhood is so quiet that we sometimes wondered if an evacuation order was in existence. The Ocean Springs vibe is quiet and the people are friendly. From MN we are not used to the term âYâall,â but were charmed. In Fusion Coffee, folks sitting at table might welcome you. âHowâre Yâall?â Walk to the beach, ÂŒ mile. Walk to trails, 1/3 mile. Walk Washington Ave. Park on Porter, navigate the weekend crowds, and when you have had your fill, bail to The Wilbur Bar for a 4 martini. For an excursion, drive one hour to Bellingrath Gardens. To satisfy that gnawing hunger for ice cream go to Quakes Ice Creamery. Just do it. Even after a satisfying deep fried submersion at Woodyâs. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we did.
We stayed at the Bamboo Bungalow and couldn't have been happier! It was the perfect couples getaway for our beach vacation.
Here's what we loved:
Charming & Spacious, The bungalow is adorable and roomy. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, the BED is sooo comfortable!
Ideal Location, we were just blocks from the beautiful beach (great for our dog walks!) and a short distance to downtown Ocean Springs and the Gulf Islands National Seashore.
Relaxing Atmosphere, the huge windows and amazing deck (perfect for birdwatching!) created such a peaceful setting. It felt like a world away just sitting outside and listening to the birds.
Ashley the host was fantastic! Very responsive and helpful.
Overall, the Bayou Bungalow exceeded our expectations. It was clean, fresh, and exactly as described, even better in person than the photos show. We definitely plan to come back for our anniversary!
This was our seventh vacation in Ocean Springs, but our first stay at the Cozy Bungalow. It was perfect!
The house was clean and had all the amenities we needed. The bed was comfortable and the shower was nice and hot. Having a washer/dryer at the home was a gamechanger for a long vacay.
The home itself is amazing. It was such an interesting design, I had to investigate the architect. Turns out his 60s/70s homes have a bit of a following in the area.
The large windows overlooked a huge deck that was like having an additional room. We took advantage of the quiet neighborhood by relaxing in the rocking chairs during the morning hours. The deck overlooked a small wooded area, where we saw raccoons, lizards, and a variety of birds.
The location was convenient to ride our bikes to both East Beach and the Gulf Islands National Seashore. Downtown Ocean Springs was a just a quick drive away.
The host was very responsive to any questions we had and made our stay comfortable.
Overall, I give the Cozy Bungalow a 10 out of 10 and hope to return for another stay!
