Book direct, skip the platform fees

National booking sites add service fees on top of the nightly rate, sometimes fifteen percent or more. Booking straight through FSBO.ms means the money goes to the owner and the price you see is the price you pay, by card, PayPal or Venmo.

When Mississippi fills up

Ole Miss and Mississippi State home football weekends, graduations, Coast festivals and casino weekends, the Neshoba County Fair, the Columbus Spring Pilgrimage and Air Force Base events all book out months ahead. If your dates land on one of those weekends, message the owner early — many will hold a date with a deposit.

Who stays here

Traveling nurses, contractors on job assignments, military families house hunting, college parents, wedding and festival guests, and hunters in the fall. Most listings are whole homes with a kitchen, laundry and driveway parking, which beats a highway hotel for anything longer than two nights.

Short-Term Rentals — frequently asked questions

Is booking direct cheaper than a booking platform?
Usually yes. Large platforms add service fees of roughly 12–16% on top of the nightly rate. Booking direct through FSBO.ms means the rate you see is the rate you pay.
How do I pay for a stay?
Owners accept card payments, PayPal or Venmo. Payment details appear on the listing after the owner confirms your dates.
When should I book a game or event weekend?
Ole Miss and Mississippi State football weekends, graduations, Coast festivals and Spring Pilgrimage weekends book months in advance. If your dates fall on one of those weekends, request them as early as possible.
Do you host travel nurses and Air Force Base assignments?
Yes. Many Mississippi owners offer monthly rates for travel nurses at hospitals statewide and for families relocating to Keesler, Columbus Air Force Base and other assignments.
Is there a minimum night stay?
Each listing sets its own minimum, typically two nights, with longer minimums on event weekends. The minimum is shown on the booking panel.
