Family Birthday Celebration
Beautiful house, convenient to much of touristy New Orleans. Huge kitchen/dining, very comfortable. Host was available. Down side a couple of the showers didn't work well (there are 5 showers though), and if planning on doing any cooking bring kitchen towels, hot pads, etc, kitchen is not well equipped with those items. All in all a very good experience.

Incredible Birthday Weekend
We stayed at this beautiful historic mansion for a long birthday weekend with my family. The house was incredible! It was extremely luxurious and very clean. The location was perfect. We were able to walk and take short Uber rides wherever we wanted to go and when we got back to the house at night we could relax in the more quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle. Highly recommend!

Quintessential NOLA
Perfect for a large group/ family, can’t say enough great things about this house. Classic NOLA beauty. Gorgeous Details abound. . Everyone had very private quarters. our elderly parents were perfectly situated on the main floor, no stairs was a bonus for them. The kids loved the pool. Sitting on the porch under the fans with our sazeracs and bloody mary’s was a Marigny delight. Perfect location for that quiet neighborhood vibe, yet a short walk to everything. St. Roch’s market has delicious food. Delicious bakery & Grocery around the corner, the quarter is 15 min walk. Excellent find, definitely booking again & again ! Missing it already. :) Marcia & Michael are superior hosts who were very responsive with any queries we had.

Uniquely Quirky NOLA Getaway
Our stay in this home was an absolute delight, and the quirky charm of the house added an extra layer of fun to our NOLA adventure. The check-in process was smooth, and the hosts were prompt and communicative. The property itself clean and also boasted some delightful quirks that added character to our stay. From eclectic decor to unexpected design touches, every corner of the house had something interesting to discover. The pool and hot tub were a highlight, they were well maintained and provided a relaxing time in the heart of the city. And with ample space for everyone to spread out, we could fully enjoy all the comforts of home while experiencing New Orleans. Being just a quick walk away from Frenchmen Street and the French Quarter was the icing on the cake. We immersed ourselves in the vibrant energy of the city, knowing that we had a retreat to return to at the end of the day. Overall, our stay at this Vrbo was a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and quirkiness. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind NOLA experience, this is it.

Second Stay
We rented the house for the second year over Christmas. The house is in in a good location near the French Quarter. There were enough bedrooms to accommodate our family and all were comfortable. The kitchen/ dining are is spacious and well equipped. The only negative this year was the fact that the hot tub didn’t work the entire time we rented the house because the part needed to fix it wasn’t available until the afternoon that we checked out. However, I notified the owner who apologized and gave me an appropriate partial refund of my rental fee. I would definitely rent this house again.

Truly special location
Our large family (aged 4 - 83) stayed for five nights in October. The house was perfect and offered something for everyone to enjoy! Tucked away from the chaos, we found everything we needed within walking distance. The house has that true New Orleans feel with plenty of vintage touches to offset the modern conveniences. We enjoyed relaxing in the outdoor spaces - the pools, the porch and the deck, and the kitchen perfect for entertaining.

This property is really special- it has a unique New Orleans vibe, wonderful decor, lots of period features and plenty of space for a large group. The communication from the host was excellent. It was in walking distance of lots of wonderful bars and restaurants as well as Frenchman and Bourbon. The outdoor space was a real bonus and we enjoyed sitting on the porch and swimming in the pool.

An Adventure
Charming, strange old house for people who don’t mind the many issues that come with that. Some in our group loved, others less so. Convenient location but no local ambiance. Limited options for large groups in this part of town. Two back rooms are tiny. Other brs are massive. Steps and balcony are dangerous for seniors. Entire outdoor area was off limits due to repairs. Even the balcony hanging plants were completely brown, it was sad. Hope it is beautiful now.
