The address is 315 Hurricane Creek Road, Sandy Hook, MS That is actually the location of the mailbox on Hurricane Creek Road. Just to the right of the mailbox (right side of road) you will see a white sign for White Horse. Proceed up this gravel and dirt road for 1 mile to White Horse. Turn right on to the property (horse on column). You are there. We assume everyone has Google Maps or equivalent; that will get you there. What is below is the way I come from New Orleans.
For many in the New Orleans area, we head north on the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway. Crossing Lake Pontchartrain on the Causeway and then continuing straight when the roadway turns into LA 190 toward Covington. You/I/we then veer right onto LA 21 in a northeasterly direction and then north when it turns north at Bush and becomes a two lane road in both directions. Straight north on LA 21 past Varnado and Angie. The road turns into MS 35 at the state line. Continue north for about 7.25 miles past the state line. Look for a large pond near the 7 mile mark, you will also notice a green arched bridge at the back side of the pond. Just past the pond you will turn left onto Hurricane Creek Rd. (there is a brown utility building here with white doors) and continue on it for approximately 3.25 miles. You will come to the sign for the White Horse Christian Retreat Camp (315 Hurricane Creek Rd., Sandy Hook, MS) on a fence in front of you. Turn to the right here and continue north for approximately 1 mile on the gravel and dirt road to the entrance to the White Horse Christian Retreat.
Headed home I retrace my steps, but instead of veering to the right on LA 21 toward Covington, I stay straight and follow the directions to Pearl River, LA, and then on to Slidell via a short stretch of I-59 and then I-10 at Slidell and on in to New Orleans.
Going up, the distance for me is about 91 miles and headed home it is 96 miles.
Once again, verify the best route for you using Google Maps or MapQuest or some other program. Travel time is about 1.5 hours to 1 hour and 45 minutes for me.
