Southern Charm Under the Oaks - Pet Friendly

Welcome to Under the Oaks, where Southern hospitality meets coastal comfort. Tucked beneath a canopy of mature oak trees, this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath, pet-friendly cottage offers the perfect blend of peaceful seclusion and convenient access to everything the Mississippi Gulf Coast has to offer.

Relax in the fully fenced backyard while local wild roosters wander by, spend your evenings gathered around the fire pit, or head out for a day of fishing, boating, and exploring. When you're ready for a night on the town, the restaurants, boutique shops, and live music of downtown Ocean Springs are just 10 miles away.

Whether you're planning a relaxing getaway with your pup, an outdoor adventure, or a coastal escape, Under the Oaks is the perfect place to slow down, unwind, and experience true Southern charm. Grab a glass of sweet tea. Y'all are going to love it here!

Here’s a polished review you can use:We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Under the Oaks. The property is truly stunning—beautiful, peaceful, and nestled in a quiet country setting that instantly makes you feel relaxed. The inside of the home is just as gorgeous as the outside, with every detail thoughtfully done.One of the highlights for us was the fenced yard, which Baby Faith absolutely loved. It gave us peace of mind while she enjoyed the space, and she had the best time.I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about this property. If you’re looking for a serene, beautiful getaway that feels like a home away from home, this is it. We will definitely be back!

Check in was easy. Backyard is great and the neighborhood is very quiet. I did love the monitor that was available for me to use with my laptop. Loved it enough that I purchased one for myself.There are some things that could be improved though. The furniture is not great for taller people and was uncomfortable. Additionally, the bed in the master bedroom feels like you are sleeping on the floor because it is so low. There is a need for additional cooking utensils and bakeware and the magic screen on the front door almost got me a couple times as I was trying to come inside. Consider a storm door or just a screen door. There is a big issue in that the tub in the main bedroom quickly fills up when you are showering and you find yourself standing in a tub of water. It takes forever to drain as well. Yes, there is another shower but that one does not have great water pressure. Other issues - some darker curtains would be useful, especially since the front porch light is on all night. Lastly, I tried to keep dehumidifier running but it would fill up multiple times a day (one day I emptied it a minimum of three times). Having grown up on the coast, I know that the location cannot be the issue that requires the use of a dehumidifier. One can only assume that there is an issue in the home with water that necessitates the dehumidifier in order to prevent a potential mold issue. There are positives to the home but it needs some help to make it truly a great rental.
