- Steve (10/5): Just perfect - Great location, Ramon, Jon and Lady were a delight perfect in every way
- Allan (8/5): A good location for visiting downtown Laurel. - Friendly helpful hosts and great communication. Near to downtown and good parking on site. Looked the same as online photos and lots of personality in the property. Comfortable spacious covered outdoor seating area, although the tv was in the bedroom. I had to sit in the bath to use the shower, limited workspace in the kitchen for preparing meals.
- Michelle (8/5): -

- Vicky (10/5): It was fun staying in a cottage that Ben & Erin had remodeled. Once again the hosts were great. Would stay again. - Location was a close drive to downtown and the historic district.

- Ellen (8/5): -
- CookieLady (10/5): Best Place to stay in Laurel - I loved the whole place. The grounds were just as beautiful as the suite. Meeting Ramon and Jon was great. They were so helpful. My favorite part was being greeted by Miss Lady whenever I left the suite. Made me miss my pups a little bit less.
Thank you Ramon, Jon & Miss Lady for sharing your beautiful home with me. I highly recommend especially to single female travelers it's so very safe. Nothing
- David (10/5): Relaxing time with wonderful hosts - Very spacious and pleasant with nice garden surroundings Nothing, really.
- Anna (10/5): Wonderful stay - Very cute and well appointed! The hosts were so kind. Lady was a great hostess as well to our dog Well, it was chilly in Laurel, no fault of the owners. The place was heated perfectly.
- Debora (10/5): It was Perfect!! - The suite was perfect, from the beautifully decorated rooms and the amazing art work that hung on the walls…the bed was so comfy. Ramon and Lady greeted us upon our arrival and it was a pleasure to have met them. Lady was a big part of the welcoming process and we absolutely loved it. If you ever need a place to stay while passing through Laurel, Mississippi this is the place to stay!!! Nothing
- johnny (8/5): - Nice and quiet Hard to find at night
- Scott (5/5): - Bathing arrangement untenable for wife with a broken arm Messy yard
- Brian (10/5): - The owners were very friendly and welcoming! The house and yards were beautiful all of the art work by John was absolutely gorgeous. The gardens Ramon.and John have created are absolutely beautiful and so inviting. Lady,the Lab is so friendly and welcoming as well. It was just an all around enjoyable stay.
- Dunn (10/5): - Beautiful little porch and yard tended with lots of care. Neat old home. Small space and no indoor living room area but great for our short stay.
- Larry J (10/5): - Beautiful gardens.
- Rebecca (9/5): Quaint Stay Outside of Town - The porch was wonderful!! I loved all the plants that surrounded it and the property. Ramon was so very kind! The bed was comfortable too. I knew that there was only a tub and no shower, but that tub bath was divine! I know that this is a personal comment....but seeing pictures with skulls in them doesn't bring a sense of coziness or warmth or relaxation to me. But I'm sure to others it does bring positive feedback.
- Thomas (9/5): Excellent location to stay while checking out the town of Laurel. - Jon & Ramon were great hosts! The space was spacious, comfortable, and met our needs just fine. It is also nicely decorated with Jon’s art and other items. We appreciated the ability to bring our dog which was a significant reason we chose this location. We also didn’t know this, but this house was filmed on hometown. I enjoyed chatting with Ramon for a bit about the show and town. We really enjoyed the stay overall. The only real issue was arriving to find that the air conditioning had failed. Since it was on a weekend, there wasn’t much to be done about it. The hosts provided extra fans, which was appreciated. Fortunately the weather cooperated and we didn’t experience too much disruption.
- René (8/5): Traumhafte Lage - ruhige Lage, idyllisch
- Robin (7/5): We were in our way to Gulf Shores and spent the night - Very cute, decorated very nicely but did NOT have a shower, other than that it was perfect No shower just a tub with a handheld shower handle
- Gayla (10/5): A little bit of heaven on earth!! - The property was absolutely beautiful and so peaceful to sit out on the porch to have coffee!! Nothing, we loved it!
- Liam (10/5): Beautiful Artistic Suite - Ramon and Lady warmly greeted us and made us feel at home. Suite was exceptionally nice, mix of beautiful hardwood floors and artistic touches throughout the building. The bed was very comfortable, and it was great to have a porch to enjoy a cup of morning coffee.
- jones (10/5): Awesome place - Absolutely wonderful!!!!!
- Kendall (8/5): A calm stay, with a beautiful family to greet you. - This space is out of this world comfortable, clean, and their porch is marlous. I truly wished for a stand up shower. But the tub is deep and wide.
- Allison (10/5): Staying at the Gingerbird Suite was like staying with loved ones you know really wanted you there! - Staying at the Gingerbird Art Suite was a true pleasure! There was more than enough space for two to comfortably move around without being on top of each other and the beautiful claw foot tub was pure luxury! The bed was soft, yet firm, making it feel like we were getting a warm hug each time we went to sleep. However, our favorite part of our stay by far, was getting to know our hosts Jon and Ramon, who went out of their way to make us feel more like family than strangers renting a space on their property! Nothing
- Marvin (10/5): Comfortable and inviting atmosphere - Loved the location, cleanliness and the size of the place. Liked it all.
- Al (10/5): - Beautiful green yard set with a friendly dog and staff. Thanks Lady, Ramon & John!
- Christy (9/5): Skip the hotel and go for the comforts of home with the Gingerbird! - The Gingerbird is a gem! So peaceful and quiet. Beautiful porch and backyard. Very comfortable bed. So clean!! Would definitely stay again. We really liked the property. If I had to pick something it would be the shower. Would like a stand alone shower instead of a tub fitted with a shower head, but that’s more of a preference than a dislike.
- Nancy (9/5): Superb - The hosts were very friendly and showed us their gardens and greenhouse upon arrival. I enjoy gardening at home and loved seeing what they were growing. The cottage was very cute and quaint...old yet the renovation was well done. My spouse and I like to sleep in very cold spaces. The A/C ran and was cold when running, but during the night it would cut off and made the air circulation stagnant. There is a ceiling fan over the bed, which helped a little bit (although it was wobbly). Unfortunately we got warm; and A/C controls were not available in our 'suite'. I understand this, but undesirable for those that need it COLD at night.
The other negative for us, is we like a firm mattress and the bed was softer with a mattress topper. For those that like fluffy soft bedding, this is perfect for you.
- Nehemiah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Carrie (10/5): Best stay ever we will be back for a longer stay next time. - Everything! The owners thought of everything to make our stay relaxing. Extra touches were nice like having coffee and tea , bath salts and other bath products. The art work was wonderful to look at also.
- David (10/5): Great little Nest - This was a peaceful retreat! The bed was beyond comfortable. A bonus was the sweet pup, Lady. We have no complaints
- Camille (10/5): A lovely peaceful atmosphere that was a cozy stay for a night in. - The art in the home was beautiful!!
- Jennifer (10/5): We felt at home and relaxed from the moment that we arrived and met our hosts! I would highly recommend this little gem! - It was lovely inside and out!
We enjoyed relaxing on the porch in the evening after a long drive. The yard is lovely.
Everything felt well thought out so that the guests are comfortable, right down to providing bath salts for the wonderful claw foot tub! We could not think of anything to complain about here😊
- Berkley (9/5): Superb -
- Diclemente (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nigel (10/5): Excellent stay in a wonderful home - Great communication prior to arrival gave all the information needed. N/A
- Gwen (10/5): Sweet "suite" ❤️ - Decor (artwork), Outdoor space, Ease of communication with owner, fantastic bed, clawfoot tub, all amenities No living room/seating area
- Dennis (10/5): Great stay, will come back. - Great stay, private porch, beautiful property, Jon & Ramon are very good hosts! Location was great!
- Paula (10/5): Beautiful gardens surround the property. Eclectic interior which embodies the”Home Town” feeling we were looking for Th - Very cozy and laid back. Great place to relax and enjoy nature. Would have liked to have a shower but that’s just my preference. There was a beautiful claw foot cast iron tub which was nice.
- John (9/5): Lovely house to stay in - well suited for people visiting this town and good value. - Lovely garden and dog. Room was very nice with beautiful examples of the hosts art in every room. Easy comms and good hosts. Having to sit in the bath to shower wasn't ideal for one of us with dubious knees. Bathroom was very nice though and no other hassles.
- Clinton (10/5): Exceptional - All of the property including the owners
- Thomas (9/5): Exceptional Southern Charm and Warm Hospitality - We stayed for two nights and truly enjoyed our time at Gingerbird Art Suite. The place is exactly as described—full of character, beautifully decorated, and very welcoming. The hosts, Jon and Ramon, made us feel right at home and were wonderful to chat with. The location is perfect, just a short drive to downtown Laurel. Everything was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged.
While the bed was a little too soft for my personal preference, that’s just a matter of taste and didn’t take away from the overall great experience. We would definitely recommend this unique and cozy place to anyone visiting Laurel. Bed too soft for our personal preference.
- Elizabeth (10/5): Very homey and comfortable! - Such a cute spot! They thought of everything, great attention to detail for the traveler who likes a homey stay! Very safety and environmentally conscious, which we appreciate. Bed was beyond soft. And Lady the dog was so sweet and well-behaved, loved having her visit us outside! Thank you! Only thing we could think of was to add a recycling bin. We bring our recycling home with us, but nice to have a spot along the drop off.
- Emily (7/5): Good -
- Douglas (10/5): Exceptional - Quite! Needs a shower!
- Susan (9/5): Cute secluded place - Really liked the covered porch and the view of the garden . Hosts were very friendly and provided lots of dining suggestions. Bed was very comfortable. My only complaint is the hand held shower in the claw foot tub. It was kind of hard to maneuver and not spray water outside of the tub.
- Luanne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Laurie (9/5): Eclectic, comfortable space is close to downtown sites. - Hosts are attentive and very nice. Rooms are nicely appointed, and it’s fun to look at the artwork. The house is older and floors are a little wonky, possibly a challenge for someone with balance issues. Note that there is a lovely clawfoot tub but no shower curtain, so standing showers are not an option. Lady the dog is a plus in my book!
- Nehemiah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ann (9/5): Wonderfully eclectic property! - Lovely home and gardens with the guest suite attached, but separate. Hosts thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. Loved sitting on the porch for morning coffee. N/A
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- James (8/5): On site hosts were friendly and accommodating. Studio was very clean and beautifully decorated. - Very comfortable bed. Loved the front porch. Good parking. Of course, Lady the dog was a sweetheart. It is quite small so be prepared for that. It is a studio after all. The only indoor seating is at the kitchen table and one sitting chair in the bedroom. Seating on the porch made up for that since the weather was beautiful while we were there.
- Anne (10/5): Friendly, cozy, relaxing, and very safe - Warm welcome, excellent dinner recommendations,
