The house is beautiful, and a perfect setup with each bedroom having its own bathroom. The beach is serene and peaceful especially at night. Neighborhood is quiet, and Ubers are easy to get if you want to go out for dinner and drinks.
Loved the house, the location, and the beach! The house has everything that you need, fast WiFi and amazing sunrises from the dock.

Pelican's Perch was a great place to stay and as advertised. The house is very clean, comfortable and updated. There were plenty of utensils, cookware, place settings, etc. to make several of our meals at home. The deck was a great place to start the mornings and end the day with a soft white sand beach for the day. We did not venture in for any swimming, but the tides come in and out so far that it would be wading, as the water is only ablaut 3 feet deep at the end of the pier. The fishing off the pier was great and we caught fish everyday including redfish, black drum, catfish, whiting and even a stingray. We also caught 2 small crabs. It is a very secluded, quiet place that was very warm and comfortable and a perfect getaway for my wife and I. The towns of Ocean Springs and Pascagoula are both close and offer happy hour opportunities, dining and shopping. Overall a great location, a very nice house and amenities to make it a great getaway.
Another wonderful trip at this great property. Was our 2nd stay here and didn't disappoint once again.We fished and used the kayaks,played outside and board games inside along with alot of relaxing!!!
Amazing beach rental owners were great to deal with
The house was fantastic beds so comfortable and the views out of this world saw bald eagles dolphins and plenty of pelicans
We loved our trip! The house was beautiful and had everything you need. We loved the back deck and the kayaks. But our favorite part was the pier where everyone enjoyed fishing, crabbing and hanging out!
Beautiful house, very clean and comfortable , and close to the things we wanted to do . Wish we didn’t have to cut our stay short. Would love to go back sometime
We had a wonderful time at the Pelican Perch. I kayaked with a dolphin and my children found treasures on the beach each evening. We enjoyed trips into town and fun family adventures like the shrimp boat tour.
Everything about our stay was fantastic. We live in Virginia and we wanted a special place to stay on our 20th wedding anniversary. We looked at many, many places and decided on the Pelican's Perch for our celebration. We are so happy we did! From the beautiful view of the gulf we had each morning with coffee, to the drum we had for dinner that we caught off the pier, it was perfect! Thank you Tim and Leanne for sharing your home with us!
This place is perfect. The house is amazing and has everything you can think of. The views of the sunrise and sunset are absolutely the best.
We came for a quick fishing trip and Leeann was so helpful with all the information we needed to get our trip started. It was our first trip down but we will definitely be back.
Home is in great condition, well stocked, loved having a bathroom for each bedroom, use of kayaks, sun deck and a fishing pier! Located in quiet neighborhood. Hosts are great to work with and provided a detailed welcome package, appreciated their recommendations for the area.
This house is beautiful with everything you need. The six of us were very comfortable. Plenty of room to spread out. Our family enjoyed a relaxing vacation with a beautiful view and the soothing sound of the gulf. The pier is an extra perk, we used the supplied crab traps and caught some crabs, we even tried our luck with a cast net and caught lots of shrimp
The property is lovely. All we needed and more in the B&B. Only comment is that the king bed is a huge challenge for those of 80. Being right on the ocean was our gift. Even though the temps in November are cool, just being by the water again was wonderful. The bonfire a special time. Loved all the thoughtful little extras.
House was really nice. Enough room for a family to stay and be comfortable. The ability to use the boats was nice to try out. Pier was in good shape. Everything was in good order when we arrived. The Shed was a good place to eat. Ocean Springs was nice to walk through. Neighborhood was quite.
Determined to get in an October vacation with only a few weeks to plan it, this house on the Gulf turned out to be perfect for us. It is in a great location with a breath-taking view of the water. The interior has been lovingly renovated and everything was comfortable. For the lucky person who sleeps on the left side of the bed in the Primary bedroom, you will be treated to beautiful sunrises lying in bed looking out the window. Pelican's Perch was perfectly pleasant.
What a gem! Property is just as advertised. We spent the whole weekend grilling, playing darts, and fishing! Caught too many to count. Even had enough success with the crabs off the dock to have a little boil! Great place for family and friends. We’ll be back!
I am 76 years old and have been renting all over the country for many many years. This property was by far the nicest and most well equipped that we have ever stayed. The check in was smooth and communication with the owners made it clear to me that their goal was to make use feel welcome in their beautiful home.
