Great Place

We had a wonder stay. The Turtle House is exactly as advertised. It is such a relaxing house. My grand boys loved playing on the decks and in yard. The bunk room was great for them. They played board games. You sit inside and feel like you are in a forest with all the trees outside. This was my second stay at Turtle House.

Ocean Spring March 2025

The Turtle House was a great place for our family to stay while on the coast for a baseball tournament. The neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed taking walks there and it isn’t too far from the beach. The house is so charming and comfortable. We stayed in a different Ishee house for an earlier trip and have become fans of his work. Dian is a great hostess. The deck is fabulous too—wish we had more time to spend out there. Turtle House is a great place to stay in Ocean Springs!

Mississippi Gem

A true coastal property that’s quirky, charming, and fun with its middle century architecture and décor. I love to get the feel of a place I visit, and this home doesn’t disappoint. It has just such a cool vibe. The large windows in the living area perfectly framed the outdoor landscape, we kept forgetting we were in a neighborhood because such care has been taken to give you the feeling of nature, seclusion, and privacy. I think we spent more time just sitting and talking on the decks outside enjoying the peace and quiet than sitting in the house. And at night, just beautiful. I even saw fireflies, something I haven’t witnessed in over 35 years. So, thank you for sharing this little Mississippi Gem with us. We are already looking forward to another visit and more time in Ocean Springs.
