Gulfport Cottage | The Sea Turtle Cottage. Quaint, historic and steps from the gulf!

3 Bedroom Cottage in Gulfport

The Sea Turtle cottage is located in the heart of exciting Gulfport within walking distance to the beach, parks, casino and Historic Downtown Gulfport's restaurants, shops and bars. The Sea Turtle is on the Mississippi Department of Archives and History covenant register and has been carefully restored to the charms of yesteryear. If you enjoy the ambiance of 'days gone by, then the Sea Turtle Cottage with its original hardwood floors, tongue and groove ceilings and comfortable and eclectic antique furnishings is the place for you!
Sleeping accommodations are great. The parlor bedroom features a four poster bed, antique chifforobe trestle table and smart TV. An antique full size iron and brass bed, brass twin bed and antique burl armoire in the second bedroom is just perfect for the aunts and nieces. A French Provincial queen bed in a third bedroom with it's nautical touches is seaside cottage chique.
Dining and entertaining for large groups is artfully easy. The graceful dining room table has two leafs for expanding to easily accommodate parties of ten. The kitchen is equipped with all the tools you'll need to make fabulous meals to wine and dine with friends and family.
Relax in the parlor living room where you and your musical guests and friends can have a fun night playing the spinet piano or guitar. Or gather in the sunroom where you will find a comfy sectional sofa to curl up with a bowl of popcorn and sweet tea to watch your favorite shows or DVDs on the large smart TV.
Fun continues in the fenced backyard with grilling, and sunning on the deck.
Two full baths make it easy to get up and get going. One bath includes a bathtub and shower combination that is great for the little guys.
This is a perfect vacation spot for family gatherings, and casino goers alike. The kids will love the splash pad at West Side Park located just a stroll around the block. And Jones Park with its scheduled entertainment (Fishing Rodeo July 4th weekend and Festival of Lights during Christmas) and picnic areas and playgrounds is so close you can walk to it. And new to the downtown area is The Mississippi Aquarium! The Gulfport Harbor will delight you with fishing piers, park and the offerings of charter boats. Or in season, take a ride on the Ship Island Excursion Boat leaving from the harbor to tour Historic Fort Massachusetts and leave you to do some 'barrier island' beach combing or dolphin watching. Amtrak (2025) has renewed its service from mobile to New Orleans and you can walk to the train depot! The Beach Comber Trolley stops at Jones Park, ready to pick you up and carry you up and down the coast for even more shopping and dining and casino fun! Even golfing! And the Island View Casino is a good neighbor living just across the street ready and waiting for whenever you're feeling lucky! Get in the car and you’ll find more fun with outlet malls, discount stores, golf courses, Lynn Meadows Discovery Center, Train Museum and the Gulf Island Water Park.
Come and stay and play at the Sea Turtle Cottage. I just know you will make some great memories.

Summary: This is our second booking. We have stayed on the Miss Gulf Coast very often especially for the last 10 years for CTC. This property is perfect for us and our friends as the location has easy access to what each wants to do: casino, beach for just sitting under trees and enjoying it all! This by far the best property I’ve rented for any occasion, CTC, holiday travel , baseball tournaments etc and I use VRBO often ! This place is more than adequately equipped with anything you need and is close to any extra shopping you need . If possible I would book Sea Turtle in Gulfport for every trip there especially CTC in the future ! Owners treat you like family !
