Good to know

This 1 bedroom 1 bath charming bungalow features a large secluded porch, perfect for your morning cup or coffee, listening to the birds, or unwinding after a day spent exploring. The bungalow is a great place to stay whether you’re here for beach days, casino nights, fishing trips or simply to slow down for a few days. The bedroom has a king bed with room for a pack and play or toddler bed if traveling with small kids, and is pet-friendly. Please note: there is no fenced in area to leave pets unattended, and we ask that you keep an eye on them during your stay and pick up after them. Only a few minutes drive to downtown OSMS, the bungalow is a perfect mix of quiet getaway while being close enough to take advantage of everything downtown Ocean Springs has to offer.

Other Details to Note

Designed by noted Gulf Coast architect Carroll Ishee, this one-bedroom bungalow is a thoughtful blend of coastal simplicity, timeless design, and relaxed Southern charm. Thanks to Ishee, the bungalow reflects the easy elegance of the Mississippi Gulf Coast - airy, welcoming, and deeply connected to its surroundings. Inside, the bungalow features warm natural light, curated interiors, and an intentionally calming atmosphere that feels both refined and comfortable. Every detail was designed to encourage slowing down, whether you’re enjoying coffee on the porch, walking back from dinner downtown, or settling in after a day on the water. The one-bedroom layout is ideal for couples, solo travelers, or weekend escapes, offering a cozy but elevated retreat with: * Fully equipped kitchen * Comfortable bedroom with soft linens * High-speed Wi-Fi and smart TV * Private outdoor areas perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails Located just minutes from downtown Ocean Springs, guests can easily explore local restaurants, galleries, boutiques, beaches, and the laid-back coastal culture that makes this town so special. Part architectural hideaway, part classic beach-town bungalow, this space offers a uniquely authentic stay on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

The area was quiet and convenient to shopping and restaurants - the deck was awesome and you felt as though you were in a private park. The bungalow was quaint and cozy. Property Manager was precious and checked on us! We enjoyed our stay very much, Can’t wait to visit again,

Bayou Bungalow is a charming, comfortable and quirky cottage. It is perfect for 2 people. The standout is the very private deck which is a wonderful place for morning coffee or evening cocktail. The kitchen was very well appointed and the bedroom was large and comfortable. The house was designed to be "green" long before such thing was in vogue. Owner communication was a 10. The beach is an easy 10 minute walk, the charming town of Ocean Springs is a little too far to walk comfortably but would be an easy 10-15 minute bike ride. WiFi access was out during our stay but we didn't even mention it to the owners because we didn't miss it. If WiFi is important, you may want to confirm that it is functional before you arrive. Also, you many need to bring your own soap and shampoo, we made a quick pitstop at CVS up the street and problem solved. If you don't enjoy this home, that's on you, not on the hosts or home.
