You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

3BR/2BA close to Beach & one block from Downtown Ocean Springs! Shelby Chateau

Approximately a mile from the water, Shelby Chateau is a beautiful, three-bedroom, two-bathroom property near the white sands and stunning sunsets of Ocean Springs beaches, and only one block from the heart of the historic downtown Ocean Springs shopping/restaurant district. 

Shelby Chateau is the perfect place for a romantic weekend getaway or week-long vacations with the family. 

Loaded with amenities, you will find a clean, artistically decorated space with all the conveniences of home.

Shelby Chateau features a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances including an oven/stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, toaster, blender, Keurig coffee maker, and all the utensils you will need for preparing meals on days you want to stay in the comforts of home, rather than eating out at the numerous Ocean Springs hot-spots.

The living room provides a comfortable place to lounge in front of the large flat-screen SmartTV, and there is a dedicated workspace for those needing to work during their stay. The neon sign on the wall with vintage phone and furniture makes a great backdrop for taking memorable pictures.  

In the Primary Bedroom, there is a King-size bed and a Smart TV for streaming, and the two guest bedrooms (one Queen bed & one Double) have Smart TVs as well.

There are two bathrooms, one with a combination shower/tub and the other has a large soaking tub.

The entire property is equipped with high-speed wireless Internet, plugs & charging stations for devices, and there is a new washer and dryer for guest use.

The enclosed front sun porch provides a space to relax, and there is covered space with seating out back in the fully enclosed fenced-in yard.

***Pets are allowed for a $150 non-refundable pet fee. Please select that you will be bringing a pet when making the reservation, or we will need to send an additional payment request after booking***

***There should be no more than six people on the property unless prior permission is given. No events or parties are allowed of any kind. We have exterior security cameras for the safety of both guests and property outside of the home. There are no inside cameras.***

While at Shelby Chateau you will feel completely at home and never need to leave the property to have a fantastic stay, but if you can tear yourself away, you'll find yourself only one block away from the heart of the quaint historic town of Ocean Springs. It has many great restaurants, museums, art galleries, sidewalk cafes, antique stores, and unique gift shops for you to enjoy.

Shelby Chateau is the perfect place for your vacation. Book your stay today!

Five Stars – Truly Perfect for Our FamilyWe cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay at Shelby Chateau in Ocean Springs. The home was beautiful, clean, thoughtfully maintained, and in the absolute best location — close to the beach and just a short walk to downtown.What truly made this home special for us, though, was the layout. It was arranged in such a way that my ex-husband and I were both able to comfortably share space with our daughters and my son-in-law (who live on base) while still giving everyone privacy and breathing room. That balance can be hard to find, and this home made it effortless.We were in town celebrating a major milestone — our son-in-law’s Air Force graduation — and being able to gather under one roof meant everything to us. We cooked meals together, shared stories, and created memories that will last a lifetime.The home felt welcoming, functional, and full of light. It allowed our blended, military family to come together in a way that felt peaceful and easy — and that’s a gift.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located, family-friendly place in Ocean Springs.Thank you for helping make such a meaningful week even more special.

Super nice property Was just me and the wife but could have easily slept 6 in the three beds. Walked everywhere to all the restaurants and shops in the downtown area, You might want to note in the two baths, one had a big tub only and the other was a combo shower/tub. Not a bid deal for us, I only point it out if you had 6 people all wanting to take a shower. Kitchen was fully equipped, house was decorated nicer with all sorts of nice touches, fenced in yard with places to sit outside and glassed front porch. room for pets if you brought any, Price was very good (we were there the first week of Jan so off season), but I was able to rent the 5 day stay for a comparable price of just a condo or apartment. Had everything we needed although we did bring our own soap and shampoo. Great communication and friendly service. Hint I went through Expedia for about a 10% mobile fee discount.

Shelby’s Chateau

Great location at 1 block from town so we could walk. Kitchen was well equipped so we cooked some. A/C worked great and neighborhood was quiet so we slept well. It is close to train track and trains come regularly but a/c and sound machines help a lot. It has 2 bathrooms but one has a tub but no shower so we had to work through that. Large, fenced-in back yard was great for our grand-daughter

Discrepancies

The house is a great location to be able to walk to downtown, it was stocked with everything we needed in the bathroom and kitchen except we could not find more toilet paper. It is very nice inside and was very comfortable with one major exception. It is advertised as 2 bathrooms, one a tub and walk in shower as well as a tub shower combo. There is NO walk in shower which was one of our requirements as two of our group cannot safely or without significant pain, access a step over shower. The deep tub is very nice for the right people, but because the water is so soft it is VERY slippery and desperately needs a safety rail and the stopper did not work, we had to put a bowl upside down to hold water in. The front porch is a nice area but the exterior of all the windows in the house are filthy and all of the bushes need trimming. You don’t have much of a view with weedy vines entangled in the bushes. Saturday night there was a termite crawling down the curtain in the master and one on the bathroom floor. In the middle of the night I woke up to a bug crawling on me. It was not a termite but I smashed it before I got into the light, not sure what it was. Not being able to text with the property manger lead to some problems with communication because of a glitch with my VRBO account. I received all the information except the door code which the site would not give me access to and I had to call the help line.

What a delight

The Shelby Chateau was just a perfect place to unwind for a few days. Charming home decorated with an artistic flair. Close to the beach and only one block from the railroad track. That worked well for us as we live in close proximity to the railroad. Fully furnished kitchen with all the essentials and full-size appliances. I like to cook, so we didn't go to the restaurants, but there are no shortage, quite a few within walking distance. Smart TV's and good internet. Home was immaculate and Chris the property manager was most attentive. Check in and check out were a breeze. If we are ever back that way again, this will be our choice for a home away from home. Hope you give it a try!
