Rustic Retreat | Beach View

Welcome to your private Gulf-front escape — Rustic Retreat that combines comfort, character, and unmatched natural beauty. This home offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience for families, groups of friends, or anyone longing for a quiet place to recharge.

Inside, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, accommodating up to 7 guests with ease. The open-concept living area creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, where large windows bring in natural light and frame the sweeping Gulf views. The fully equipped kitchen provides everything you need to prepare home-cooked meals and share them with loved ones.

Step out onto the balcony and let the panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico and Horn Island take your breath away. Sip your morning coffee while watching the sunrise over the water, or enjoy evening cocktails as the sky paints itself in shades of pink and orange.

The highlight of this retreat is the private natural beach, offering a rare opportunity to experience the Gulf shoreline in its most unspoiled form. Whether you prefer swimming, sunbathing, beachcombing, or simply listening to the waves, this setting invites you to slow down and savor each moment.

This home is designed for those who value tranquility and relaxation. Spend your days exploring the local area, or stay in and enjoy the peace and quiet that comes from being surrounded by nature and the sea. At night, gather in the cozy living room, share stories on the balcony, or drift off to sleep to the soothing sound of the surf.

If you’re searching for a coastal getaway where you can truly unwind, this Gulf-front retreat is the perfect choice.

Ocean Vaca

The Rustic Retreat was like a mountain lodge with the waves of the gulf all around! The view of the gulf and the endless sky with the ocean wind was spectacular-with plenty of shaded area under the house. The home is decorated in a vintage eclectic style that was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, I would suggest getting very acquainted with the stovetop before attempting to cook! The host was readily available to answer all questions. We love the Gulf Coast and will be back soon!

What a View!!

Amazing views! The view from the deck, living room, dining are and kitchen are astounding. We saw dolphins and a variety of birds. You can walk the road and have the ocean on one side and bayou on the others. There are very few cars so its great walk. There really isn't beach walking here but itl is great. Ocean Springs has a great dog friendly beach and it is about 20 minutes away. It is easy to do a day trip to New Orleans and Mobile. There is lots to see and do in the area. The bedrooms are a bit small and the oven and stove take a bit of getting use to. Those things were minor with that view and location.

Cozy beach retreat

This is a lovely property nestled right on the water in a friendly neighborhood. A truly amazing story of resilience behind the property as well, having survived two catastrophic hurricanes. Can’t wait to stay at this beautiful and unique property again

Do nothing

Rustic property that was perfect for a few days to wind down after our daughter’s wedding in New Orleans. Property situated right on the water. 180 degree views. Unfortunately screens not working on sliding glass doors to open for fresh air. And would recommend bringing own deck chairs as there is no porch furniture. No real TV options but that wasn’t on our agenda anyway. Despite these shortcomings was a very peaceful setting to relax and unwind.

Perfect view

Everything about the house was great! Especially if you like your privacy. Only bad part was the water. I get its the gulf of Mexico but it was especially muddy and shallow. If you have kids and want them to play in the water I would suggest to get a different location. But if you dont care definitely the place to go. It was absolutely amazing with the most breathtaking views.

Great private beach area

The house was exactly as expected. Easy access to the beach area. Don't plan on swimming here due to lots of debris/old piers, etc. This didn't bother us though. We were able to collect lots of shells, hermit crabs, and various other types of crabs were in abundance. We saw dolphins daily and the pelicans fly overhead frequently. Absolutely beautiful location.
