About Trace Cottages

Welcome to our little cottages retreat! These cottages have been on this property since the early seventies and were recently moved to this convenient location. With their remodel and furnishings in modern rustic décor, they are now the very charming Trace Cottages.

The Trace Cottages are located less than ½ mile from the beautiful Ross Barnett Reservoir, one of the most popular lakes in Mississippi with over two (2) million annual visitors offering boat ramps and pontoon rentals at Main Harbor Store, phone number 601-853-0683, where you can refuel your watercraft as well. “The REZ” provides everything you need to enjoy the outdoors. There are twenty-two (22) public ramps if you bring your boat. The Rez is forty-five (45) miles long and three and one-half (3 ½) miles wide, enough space for any water activity (skiing, jet skis, boating, great fishing, camping and so much more) and there are coves and bays to explore in a kayak or canoe and boat slips are available from Main Harbor Development.

For the anglers, the most popular catch is largemouth bass, but folks catch lots of white perch/crappie and catfish. There are fishing tournaments throughout the year to test your fishing expertise and land lovers will enjoy trails for hiking, or biking and the Waterfowl Refuse offers platforms to watch the egrets, herons, and all birds that stop by on their journey to the North or South.

You can enjoy great food and live entertainment next door at Shuckers Oyster Bar (est. 1998). Shuckers serves weekly lunch specials. Come over and enjoy Happy Hour Mon. – Fri. from 4:00 – 7:00. If you have a weekend stay with us, go over to Shuckers and enjoy a country breakfast. Pelican Cove Grill located less than one-half (1/2) mile from Trace Cottages is a great place to enjoy waterfront dining. A shuttle runs Fri. and Sat. nights between Shuckers and Pelican Cove.

We look forward to being your host for “Overnight Stays to Extended Visits”! For Information, please call 601-953-0913.
