When it comes to the summer in Mississippi, it’s typically a perfect time to pack a bag, put the family dog in the car and let rubber meet the road for a few hundred miles.

To that end, Mississippi is home to plenty of amazing destination spots for folks to stay. However, finding the perfect, or rather, the most interesting place to sleep and enjoy your morning coffee might not be so easy.

So, the Clarion Ledger has compiled a list of some of the best Airbnbs to stay in this summer in some of the most interesting places throughout the state, according to Roadaffair.com, a travel advisory website.

Ocean Springs

When it comes to Mississippi travelling, a trip down to the coast for beaches and family fun should never be ignored.

If you are looking at Ocean Springs, you might want to check out the Bottle Brush on Bowen, a pet friendly three-bedroom house just 10 minutes away from Ocean Springs Beach.

The house is also nestled into a quiet neighborhood and with downtown so close, shopping and sight-seeing aren’t far at all, according to the Airbnb listing.

If you would like to check out this location, you can view it here. The host doesn’t have a price listed at the moment, so be sure to contact them about availability and prices.

Bruce Mississippi

If the thought of sand in your shoes steers you away from the coast, you may find yourself longing for a shaded trail through the Mississippi hill country.

If that is the case, you may want to check out this interesting cabin near Bruce.

This cabin features six bedrooms and two bathrooms and is tucked away into the country about 30 miles away from Oxford, home to the University of Mississippi.

As for the nature aspect, the cabin is located next to a small lake, and features 2 miles of hiking trail and the opportunity for fishing, canoeing and other activities.

Lake Retreat in Hernando
