Harbor View Cottages-Overlooking Historic Harbor and Beach

Harbor View Cottages - (Newly Renovated, February 2022!!)

126 West Scenic Drive - East Cottage
Pass Christian, MS 39571


Overlooking the historic Pass Christian Yacht Harbor (only one of three 19th century resort harbors with Cape May and Newport being the other two) and Gulf of Mexico, this adorable Acadian cottage offers all the amenities one expects of Southern hospitality and charm. The cottage has three large bedrooms, two baths, a very large living room and kitchen plus a utility room with washer and dryer. The back yard is picket fenced and ready for your pet. Sitting on the front porch at sunset watching the boats come in the harbor melts away all tensions of the day.

The sugar white beaches stretch twenty six miles. A boat launch is across the street with trailer storage on the property. Fresh fish, oysters, crab and shrimp are for sale at the harbor on a daily basis. Charter boat fishing or fishing from the harbor gazebos (across the street) avail those interested in sport fishing.

Being in the heart of the Historic District, restaurants abound within walking distance as well as antique shops and boutiques. Historic mansions and centuries old live oak trees line Scenic Drive.

Las Vegas style casinos are minutes away in Gulfport and Biloxi and New Orleans is just an hour away. For those golfers, there are 20 PGA courses on the Coast with three being in Pass Christian: a world class Arnie Palmer couse at The Bridges, The Oaks and Pass Christian Isle.

Many wonderful events occur here on the Coast bringing in people from all over the country. The cottage is located on the Pass Christian Mardi Gras Parade route (the second largest Mardi Gras parade on the entire Gulf Coast) and we always have a huge buffet for friends and guests. St. Paul's seafood festival is in June and right down the street. Art in the Pass is a juried art show in April and Christmas in the Pass is a huge draw. But, best of all is 'Crusin the Coast'. At Harbor View you have a front row seat watching the thousands of antique cars 'crusin' between Bay St. Louis and Biloxi, These are but a few of the many festivals on the Coast.

Whether browsing the library four doors down, playing croquet in the front yard or taking your chances at the many casinos, you will find all the elements for a perfect and fun vacation at Harbour View. We look forward to pampering you.

Pets are accepted upon approval with a 75.00 non refundable pet deposit. Smoking is permitted outside only. Damage Deposits may be doubled for certain events.

Excellent Spring Break Trip!

Dinah and Jim are the best hostesses!!! The house was exceptionally stocked and super clean. We didn’t need a thing. We will definitely be a repeat vacationer in Pass Christian, instead of just stopping when we pass thru. Plan on getting your fill of local seafood while there.

Location Location Location!!!This property is conveniently located to restaurants, parks and beach. You can easily arrive park your vehicle and not have to get in it again until you check out. Very spacious clean rooms, and kitchen has everything for cooking family meals.The only downside to this property is the bathrooms, can really use some updates; toilets and shower heads. But overall I would revisit this place.

Best vacation cottage ever

My boys and I have been renting vacation cottages for 12 years now, and this was by far our favorite. Very clean, and well equipped, and the boys could walk to the fishing pier and beach. We loved it!

Wonderful!

The beautiful, well-maintained, fully stocked cottage was wonderful! There was plenty of room for our family of 4. The location is perfect..short stroll to downtown, lots of restaurants nearby, beautiful views of the ocean & marina, bird watching from the porch, lovely landscaping. The owners were fantastic & helpful. We will definitely stay again!

Always pleasant

As always, our stay was pleasant and relaxing. The location is perfect for walks or just to sit and relax on the porch viewing the harbor. Diane and Kathy are gracious hostesses who work to make the stay pleasant. Our dogs like those walks also!

Awesome Location!

Had never been to this area before and ended up booking last minute. Thought it might be too far off the beaten path, but the house and location were great! Convenient to both Gulfport and Bay St. Louis, plus Pass Christian has some awesome little shops and restaurants of its own. Easy access to nice beaches away from the crowds and tourist attractions and traffic. Live bait and boat launch right across the street.

Great cottage, great time!

My family and I had a great time. Cottage was lovely and exactly as described. I grew up in this town. It's wonderful to have such a lovely place to go to when I visit. The coziness of this place is so much better than a hotel room. Thanks Diane!

Hidden gem!

I cannot say enough good things about this home and the precious owners. They made evacuating from a hurricane seem more like a vacation. Pass Christian is a hidden gem and so is this beautiful home. Super comfortable without being too big. The kids loved the huge yard and watching the boats across the street. We will be back!!!

We traveled to the Pass for a regatta. This was the perfect spot for getting to and from the yacht club, visiting friends and dining out. The doggies were happy and safe in the fenced in backyard. The house was spacious and had everything we needed. Made for a fun, memorable weekend.

Wonderful Stay at Harbor View Cottages!

We recently stayed at Harbor View Cottages-Overlooking Historic Harbor and Beach, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. The cottage was well-appointed, providing everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. We brought our two fur babies along, and they loved it just as much as we did! The location is perfect—centrally located with easy access to both the harbor and the beach, making it ideal for exploring the area. The view was stunning, and the peaceful atmosphere made for a truly memorable getaway. We are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!
