About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Quiet and relaxing come enjoy the river and coastal life at The Slippery Minnow.
The Slippery Minnow is quiet and welcoming. You can spend your time relaxing beneath the majestic Live Oak on the property or fish off our private dock on the bayou leading into "The Pascagoula River," otherwise known as "The Singing River". Just 3 minutes away is a public boat launch if fishing and boating is your enjoyment. And at night, rest beneath the romantic lights surrounding the fire pit table or simply relax inside our cozy cottage and read a book, watch a movie, or go online to catch up on some work. Whatever your desire might be, the Slippery Minnow is just the place to be. If you're an artist and enjoy painting scenery or wildlife pictures, the area is very inspiring to say the least. There are live bait shops within minutes of The Slippery Minnow, where you'll find live shrimp and croaker. And I would not fail to mention the finest seafood and steaks from restaurants like Brady's and Bozo's 2 just a short drive from your stay. Also, for those working in our area, the Chevron Plant and Ingalls Shipyard is only a 15 - to 20-minute drive. Come check us out, we are eager to make your stay one you'll never forget!

Host was super nice and friendly. They were very accommodating going as far as letting us put but battery chargers for our boats under their personal porch. We were there to alligator hunt and it was great not having to pull and launch the 2 boats we had every day. Would stay again.

Weekend at the slippery minnow
Overall, very nice. Great dock and boat slip, beautiful setting. A couple of suggestions:
1. A seating area for guests that was more private.
2. Camp chairs to take to the dock, or add that they’re needed in your listing.
3. Treat for ant beds near front stoop.
We had a very relaxing weekend; thank you for your hospitality!

Just as advertised. Cozy, comfy, quiet stay.
We had a wonderful, relaxing time. We enjoyed kayaking and relaxing in the back yard and on the dock. The Cottage was just right for a fun stay. Everything you need is included. It is clean and cozy. Tammy and Phil were so nice and welcoming. We will return again to our new favorite stay in the Moss Point/ Pascagoula Area. Thank you Tammy and Phil for your Hospitality.

A Blissful Retreat.
My recent stay at this place was an absolute delight, and I can't wait to share my wonderful experience! From the moment we arrived, I was blown away by the charm and comfort of this hidden gem.
The host, Tammy Kitchen’s was incredibly welcoming and accommodating, ensuring that I had everything I needed for a pleasant stay. Their attention to detail was evident in every corner of the property. The beautifully decorated interior exuded a cozy and inviting atmosphere, making me feel right at home from the very beginning.
The accommodation was not only pleasing but also thoughtfully designed to provide all the modern comforts one could wish for. From the well-equipped kitchen to the comfy bedding and towels, no detail was overlooked. It was evident that the host genuinely cared about their guests' experience.
The highlight of this house was undoubtedly the private outdoor space. The serene patio area allowed me to unwind, creating a peaceful retreat. We enjoyed sipping our morning coffee while listening to the birds chirping a truly rejuvenating experience.
Additionally, the location couldn't have been better. The dock to fish, the kayaks to explore. Just perfect.
Communication with the host was seamless, and they were always available to answer any questions or provide assistance. Thank you!

Charming cottage on the bayou
Quiet and peaceful area. We enjoyed our stay, with easy access and a lovely sunset drive from Hwy 90 in Pascagoula. Great restaurants within a short distance. Although we didn’t make time to go fishing-there appears to be several area amenities to accommodate the sport. Gracious hosts and responsive. We definitely hope to visit again soon!

Last Minute Mini-vaca/work Getaway
Though I had out-of-town work to do on Saturday, I decided somewhat at the last minute to make a three-day weekend of it all. I found a cozy cottage right on the water that seemed secluded and quiet. The property was all that and more. The host were super friendly and easy-going. I felt right at home and cared for but not fussed over. Both evenings were marked by cool costal breezes, wonderful quiet, and a glass of wine or two. I will be back.
