  : The walk to the downtown area was about six blocks which was not a bad walk. I walked it every day. The shops that were opened seemed happy to have some tourist. The community was nice. We spent a great deal of time in the Biloxi area. We attended a baseball game, went to the beaches there and took a day shopping at the Mall. We also had dinner in Biloxi a few evenings.
  : The ability to walk to the beach was overstated. The beach was about 3/4 of mile from the cottage. I believe the description make the beach appear the beach was closer. My family and I were disappointed with the beach access. The cottage was also located very near a railroad track that hosted several trains in the evening and day. My family was not accustomed to the noise of a train so close (about 50/60 yards from the cottage). The cottage is also located next door to an apartment complex which also had people coming and going at various hours of the evening. Over our stay, we heard car doors closing and people coming and going as is there right since they live right next door. It sounded like they were in the yard. We spent time in the community of Ocean Springs and enjoyed the places that were open but spent more time in the Durberville and Biloxi area.

  : Host very responsive to calls made. Recommend a vent be installed in bathroom to help remove moisture during showers.
  : Preferred to have cable but we adjusted to the tv programs.
