Beautiful, historic home in a perfect spot for so many New Orleans’ experiences. We walked most places and saw the greatest sights of the city. We appreciated the deck and the fenced yard as we had perfect weather!

The house is beautiful and more than enough room for our group. Easy walk to the French Quarter. Even though it is a pretty busy street and super close to the interstate - the outside noise was not an issue and did not disrupt our sleep. The back yard area is fenced and relaxing. The hosts were helpful for the quick question that we had. Great sray!

Friends Trip

What a great location and home for large groups in NOLA! We walked everywhere from the residence and were a few short minutes from a grocery store with everything we needed. Right next to the highway for easy in and out access to Airport and Swamp Tours. Communication from hosts was exceptional throughout! Pool, Deck, Kitchen and Dining Room were the perfect gathering places!

Ideal house for a real New Orleans feel

The house exceeded my expectations. It was bigger than I expected, and had a great atmosphere that I didn't really expect either. My group, which consisted of my family and my in-laws and their children, were very pleased with the overall New Orleans charm that the house evoked. We'd love to stay here again in the future for another trip to the Big Easy. Walking distance to the French Quarter. The hosts were always in contact and made us feel welcome.

Lovely older home with a great personality

The beds were great. Check in was super easy. The only complaint we would have is the hot water did not last long enough for 2 people to shower completely without the water getting super cold. We would stay again

Charming, historic house

A little tricky to get to only due to New Orleans streets, not impressive at first glance due to all ground floor windows being shuttered. Once we got inside it was charming with lots of historic detail, plenty of comfy beds and areas to gather. We would stay there again!

Mardi Gras Bachelorette

This house was perfect for our group of nine for a bachelorette party during Mardi Gras celebrations! The host was very responsive leading up to the trip, check-in/check-out was seamless, the location was great, and the home itself was spacious & clean. The pictures don’t do the property justice. I would recommend this house to my friends & family!

Problem stay

This property has been poorly maintained. Lost hot water half-way through the first shower of the day. Right by the Claiborne Ave overpass, the street noise was loud, worse at night with gunshots, and street party under the overpass on Sunday night. Quality of the furnishings was marginal. Mattresses were uncomfortable. Host was responsive when called.
