My wife and I are going to last minute take a weekend and get away, but stay fairly local. Think 3 hour-ish drive. (We are in Livingston Parish).

I was hoping to find a secluded cabin, B&B of some sort that's a little more private and hopefully with a hot tub. Of course, preference would be a private hot tub....

We like to brewery hop all day and get flights of beers. We've done it in the New Orleans area before and had a blast (stayed in the Roosevelt then).

Was thinking Mandeville, Lafayette, anywhere in Mississippi near breweries, and considering driving as far as Alabama.

Anyone ever stay in a place like I'm thinking? We stayed in the Abita Springs Be & Be once before and had a fantastic time (private and secluded). But, seems as though it has not aged well......

Any ideas would be very greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Keipersol vineyard in Texas was nice. They have a room with a hot tub and the restaurant at the bnb was great.

MS gulf coast.
I’m sure you can find something with a hot tub and you can dine/drink from bay St. Louis to Biloxi

I’m not sure about any secluded places, but old town Covington or the Mandeville lake front might work. There are some BnBs in both.
Bay St Louis are as well as around Fairhope Alabama are other areas to look

Ocean Springs wouldn't be bad to walk and they have a couple of breweries plus a decent tap bar next to a Lebanese place

Ocean Springs what what I was thinking too.
Natchez has a bunch of BnBs, but I’m not sure about breweries.
Breaux Bridge has some BnBs and Bayou Teche and Parish are kinda close by.
Mandeville has a good bit and Old Rail, Chufunkta and Abita are close by.
Maybe Mobile, but I’m not sure about that one.

Booked in Ocean Springs! Looks like fun and within 5 miles I found 5 breweries to enjoy. Wish I could've gotten a room at the Ocean Springs Inn, but we were last minute on this.

If we have a good time, might have to do it again and plan ahead a little.

Thanks for the help!

The Phoencia is a good resturant in OS and they have a new Latin Place nearby with a rooftop bar and live music. Also Mosaic has Tapas,live music & good food. All walking distance of each other.

We stopped in Ocean Springs for brunch on the way to FL in November. Ate at "The Lady May" on Washington Street. It was awesome and I highly recommend it for breakfast or brunch. I got the braised beef shank with gouda grits dish.
