Our 4th stay at this location says it all! Even though itâs not on the beach , itâs a great place to have a big family/friend gathering. A short drive to the beach.
Let me start by saying that the condition of the house and property did not deter us from a great time. Check in was flawless location was quiet. With that said. The house what some what dirty. The kitchen window hasn't been cleaned in years. Im talking about the inside. The fridge was falling apart, the icemaker does not work. There was so much food already int he freezer that there was not much room for our food and ice so many trips to the Walmart were in order. I pulled out a kitchen drawer and the front came off in my hand. The pots and pans and cooking implements are a joke. Lots of dishes though. The house discription stated there are bikes for guests to use. Beware, they are on a creepy shed and the bikes are rusted and buried under other things or the tires are flat. The sheets smelled as if the had not been changed. Not musty and dusty smell from no use, but BO smell. The 1st master bath has a feces smell. There was not much to clean with. The deck has several nails sticking up and I stepped on a knothole and it pretty much went through. The tarro/ elephant ears are over grown and on the steps. With a little bit of maintenance and better cleaning this place would be just like the pictures.
Easy to locate, wasnât too sure at first about the neighborhood but turned out to be a really great location to get to the water, shops and restaurants. Highly recommend if youâre looking for a low key beach getaway!
We loved staying here. Their were 7 adults in our party and we all had plenty of room. Martin went above & beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. We are hoping to stay there again!
Property just as described⊠our 3rd stay & we continue to enjoy our stays. Martin always responds quickly to any requests we have. I highly recommend property !
The house and the trip was excellent. The bathtubs in the house were the best. The house location was very close to the beach and central to other locations.
The home was a great jumping off point for various activities in the area. Easy to find, easy to access. Martin and Michele were great to work with and very attentive to us as guests.
Great clean home to stay in. Wish house was just a bit closer to the beach. Martin was a great host and communicated promptly with us and went above and beyond communicating about hurricane Ida.
We had a family of 7-my husband and I and our 5 children (ages 13, 10, 9, 7, & 5!) they each had their own beds, our oldest had her own room and bathroom, the others had their own bathroom & we had our own bathroom. SO MUCH SPACE!!! There was no fighting/bickering & the house was well supplied & the owner was fantastic to when with!!! 10/10 recommend!!!
We loved every part of our stay! The house was very clean and well equipped! Very fast WiFi. An extremely short drive from the beach and lots of restaurants! This is my second time staying here and I'm already planning a third! Thank you again!
This house is much bigger than the pictures even show. We had 4 adults and 3 kids and had more than enough room for everyone. It was great having a bathroom for each bedroom. The house was clean and Martin was a wonderful host. This is also a really great beach for kids. It wasn't a problem having to drive to the beach because there was no way we could walk anyway with all of our beach stuff. The beach at Waveland is the perfect beach for kids since you can walk out forever and it stays shallow. We also went to the Hurricane Katrina museum in town which is worth going to. Anyway, Martin's house, communication, everything was wonderful. Do not hesitate to stay there. Thank you Martin!
I rented the property for the 4th of July as mid point for family meeting from Texas and Alabama. The house was large and spacious and has plenty of beds and a bathroom for each room. The house is about 2 miles from the beach and is where we spent our time. The owner was easy to work with and was fast with his responses. When we thought we had a maintenance issue he contacted his maintenance team and they arrived in no time and got us straightened out. If you're picky or looking for the Ritz Carlton, this isn't the rental for you. This is a normal style home, with flaws and character just like my home and I think the price reflected that. The home also had three bikes that we used to ride around. It also had the stupidest, hardest, worst puzzle ever, that we put together. It was in the shape of a hummingbird and took forever. The only complaint we had was the lack of WIFI which the owner plans to get added after requesting feedback from our stay. Overall would stay again and it was nice being the first to rent it. Martin thanks for trusting us with your home.
Waveland was absolutely beautiful. We had such a great time learning about the history of the town while also going to the beach (of course). Hardly an hour from NO made it an awesome spot. The town was quite tranquil and very relaxing full of great people. The place we stayed was wonderful. Martin was incredibly kind and helpful and provided more than advertised would definitely come back.
This is a nice place to stay with 3 bedrooms each with their own bathrooms and is great for a larger family visit-we'd stay here again next time we visit. Chirping smoke alarms were a minor problem throughout out visit, including one in locked room that we could not get to in order to replace the battery. Martin offered to come over to fix things which was nice.
This was our second time to stay @ this property. We enjoy the fact that the house is large enough for 3 couples to each have their own bedroom & bath. We enjoyed visiting the local attractions such as the hurricane Katrina museum & the Mardi Gras museum. Everyone was very friendly. Mr Docherty was readily available to answer any concerns we had. We hope to make a return visit! .
The kitchen counter and bench in the kitchen were made from a pecan tree that was knocked down by Katrina. The original home was completely destroyed, the rebuild was a labor of love. The name " Clover Cottage " comes from my great friend Chris Clover who rebuilt after Katrina and sold the house to me. I named the house in his honor.
