Fire pit Archives - Christies Gulf Beach Rentals

Sea Glass Inn

Stay with us at the Sea Glass Inn located in beautiful Pass Christian. Walk to the beach from our remodeled and beautifully decorated house. The Sea Glass Inn offers three separate bedrooms each designed to please our guests.

Bedroom one has a queen bed with another queen bed in bedroom two and a twin trundle bed in bedroom three. Six guests can be accommodated in our four beds. Plus, a queen blow-up bed can accommodate two more for a total of 8 guests. Two full bathrooms are sufficient to accommodate a full house.

Cook your own meals in our fully equipped kitchen. Everything you need to help prepare meals just like at home is here for your use. Leave all of those clothes at home, and use our full-sized washer and dryer to launder your items. We understand after a hard day at the beach, you may want to throw your bathing suits into the washer.

Of course, our large living room includes a flat-screen TV. Bring your passwords with you to enjoy your TV subscriptions. Our free wifi is connected to our smart TVs. While the kids are busy watching TV, you can use the BBQ and char some steaks or shrimp.

Our fire pit will be a focal point for your guests during their stay. The very large yard can accommodate games and permit your family to enjoy the space. The property is surrounded by trees on three sides.

Did we mention taking a walk to the beach? The beautiful beach consists of white sand groomed frequently. No need for masks, there is plenty of space and the beaches are never crowded unless there is a parade.

Great restaurants can be found on U.S. 90, Beach Blvd in downtown Pass Christian and at the Pass Christian marina. Of course, there are also 12 casinos on the Mississippi Gulf Coast where you can try your luck, enjoy live entertainment, and eat a great meal.

Fishing right on the beach, from our public piers, or rent a boat and go out by the islands for deep sea fishing. Please check out our “Activities” page for more information.

Pet Friendly

2 small to medium-sized dogs are permitted upon payment of the non-refundable pet fee during the reservation process. Read our pet requirements and additional cleaning and damage fees that may apply.

Magnolia Place

SNOWBIRDS NEST HERE

The owners have authorized Christies to negotiate on stays of 30 days and more. Did you know that if you stay 90 days, there is no state sales tax. This alone can save you 12%. Contact us for the best winter stay you have ever had.

Magnolia Place is one of our favorite larger properties that can accommodate up to 10 people. This attractive Southern home is located on a tree-lined street in the City of Long Beach Mississippi adjacent to the University of Southern Mississippi campus. The beach is a few blocks away as is a vibrant downtown area and harbor. This small city celebrates with parades and events all year. If you live in a large crowded city or suburb and want to “come home” this truly is a slice of Americana. Both our property and the surroundings.

You will love the live oaks and other trees on our property and surrounding it. The house in located on a large property with a front yard large enough to host games. The backyard is wide open. Don’t forget to bring some wood for the fire pit. This is one of the most popular items at a Mississippi Gulf Coast property. Did I mention there is plenty of parking in the very long driveway?

Enter the house through the electronic lock, no need for keys. The door is covered by a nice lighted porch. Most people enter through the side door which is closer to the drive area. Inside you will find a large formal dining area in a large open area with a giant flat screen. A great room for gatherings.

The first bedroom is located at the end of the living room with four twin beds. A great place for kids or even adults. Walk around to the fully equipped kitchen and laundry room and enter the formal living room. You will discover a number of nooks with seating for private conversations (or where the teenagers can use their iPhones).

The next bedroom has a full-sized bed and is elegantly decorated. The large formal living room in front of the fireplace (non-operational) is a great place to relax and enjoy the company of others.

The third bedroom contains two twin beds and is decorated as nicely as all of the other bedrooms. Around the corner is the master bedroom with a queen-sized encased in a white antique finished head and footboard. This bedroom comes with its own bathroom.

The very large two-room bath is in the center of the house and serves the other bedrooms. This massive area allows multiple people to get ready at the same time. Great for coming home after swimming at the beach all day. Preparing to go out for entertainment in the evening is a breeze.

Everything is available for your stay to be memorable. Cook meals, wash your Beach wear, enjoy the fire pit, or just hang around. Don’t miss walking around on the University campus and seeing one of the oldest live oak trees in existence. Don’t forget to go to the beach. You can walk to the beach (15 minutes) or drive over, park for free and after your beach time, try one of the beach-close restaurants.

Consider bringing the family to the Mississippi Gulf Coast when your daughter or son registers for their first semester. Simply walk onto the campus from our beautiful property. Family reunions are another reason to stay at Magnolia Place.

Peaceful Meadow

Want a true destination vacation? The Peaceful Meadow is the place for you and your family or group. Four bedrooms and two large sofas are great for turning into beds at night if you have a larger family. 12+ can be accommodated at the Peaceful Meadow.

One of the bathrooms has a full-size tub with a shower and a separate stall shower. It’s a large room permitting several people to shower and get ready for the day or evening. The second bathroom serves other bedrooms and guests. The half bath is located in the patio entertainment area which makes it perfect for guests who need not walk through the house.

This beautiful brick house is located a very short distance from the beach and large shopping center. When you arrive, you can enter from either side of their huge semi-circular drive. Beautiful old-growth oak trees surround the property. Walk through the door and turn left to our large dedicated game room.

A full-size pool table and electronic dart board are the main features of this room. A 70″ TV and two separate seating areas permit large gatherings while others play a game of pool or darts or just converse.

The entire house has hard surface flooring so no problem with a bit of beach sand. The fully equipped new kitchen with stone countertops and stainless steel appliances features a large island.

A full-size washer and dryer in a laundry room will help you reduce packing for the trip. After you settle into the house, time to visit our several-acre yard and entertainment area.

An outdoor fireplace is perfect for cooking a great steak or roasting marshmallows. Our covered outdoor eating area comes with a picnic table and chairs for enjoying out outdoors. A large BBQ is available along with plenty of comfortable seating under our awning. When it’s hot in the sun, retire to the cool surroundings of our high-quality patio furniture under the cover of the beautiful purpose-built patio cover.

The large grass area is large enough for a football game to play baseball or both at the same time. This house is located on several acres of mowed grass, trees, and plants.

The property is completely private and fenced which means you and your guests can enjoy both indoor and outdoor activities in a great setting. The driveway is large enough for trailers when attending automotive events such as Scrapin, Jeepin, and Cruzin the Coast.

While this is a brick house, you may be interested to know that it was built in 1880 and has gone through some changes since that time. Your accommodation will be located in one of two ground-level units that are part of a single building (a duplex). Each of the two units has its private entrance and its private yard.

This modern property is so close to the beach that there is no need to drive. Great restaurants are within a five-minute drive as are the Discovery Center and Centennial Plaza. The Mississippi Aquarium is ten minutes away. Several casinos offer not only great restaurants but entertainment.

We named this property the Least Tern Nest after the Least Tern found on the beach near this property. These birds are protected and their nesting areas are fenced off on the beach to protect their eggs. This beautiful bird reflects what we offer at this property. FYI, this building was built in 1880, that’s 142 years ago. It’s as charming now as it was when it was built and the owners pulled up in their horse-drawn carriage.

PETS: A small dog is permitted upon request and after payment of the pet fee.
