Fabulous Getaway

Absolutely loved our stay! The area couldn't be more perfect. Just steps away from the amazing Lakefront with its historical live oaks. Several dining choices with great views. So incredibly peaceful and beautiful I was missing it before I even left! Accommodations were neat and clean with everything we could have possible needed. Our hosts were amazing. Can't wait to go back!

Beautiful property. This property made traveling with two toddlers as stress free as possible. The guest house is set back away from the street. The kids loved playing in the courtyard and I enjoyed reading a book in a rocking chair. Vincent made the check in process easy. He was very friendly and accommodating. There are so many things to do nearby as well.

Beautiful Quaint Stay

The outdoor space was beautiful and quaint and indoors was cozy and inviting with all the necessary amenities. The property is steps away from the Tammany Trace and Lake Pontchartrain. Mandeville has many activities, restaurants, and shopping. It is also minutes from New Orleans. Our hosts were both charming and accommodating. I would recommend Old Mandeville Guest house.

Like something out of a movie.

This is an amazing location. Everything to do like dining, bar hoping, the lake and bike trails are all very close. Our host was very accommodating and had great suggestions for different things for us to try. They had bikes available to use to ride around the town along with a detailed list of places to go. The neighboring the area are also very friendly.

Perfect home away from home

Thank you, Vincent and Daniele for a wonderful stay in your guest house. We are from the area and were back in town visiting family. Having your place to come back to each night made our trip spectacular. We enjoyed walking to restaurants and bars in Old Mandeville and woke to birds chirping every morning. They went way above and beyond to make us feel welcome and take care of our every need, even having specific baking items in the house for our holiday baking. We arrived feeling like renters and left feeling like family. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit home.

Excellent stay! The cottage was clean, comfortable, quiet, and roomy, and it had everything we needed for a pleasant two-week stay. The location is perfect for walks along the shoreline park, to restaurants with lake and sunset views, to the interesting shops on Girod Street, and to the farmers market. The neighborhood is very safe and we had no concerns at all about walking at night. The hosts are wonderful people and wonderful hosts; they offered helpful recommendations for activities and restaurants, and were friendly and warm even while being respectful of our privacy. We highly recommend this place.
