The Neighborhood:
The Garden District was built in the mid-19th century and is one of the most scenic and wealthy areas of all New Orleans. Lush, manicured trees and grand, historic mansions line the streets, making it an oasis away from the bustle of the French Quarter and perfect for strolling. Find yourself within walking distance to popular Magazine Street which offers both upscale dining, craft cocktails and rare antiques as well as dive bars and eclectic boutiques.

Other nearby attractions include the Audubon Park & Zoo, Lafayette Cemetery, and Commander’s Palace. The French Quarter is a quick 12 minute car ride away. My personal favorite coffee house, Mojo, is right on the corner!

Getting Around:
Many attractions can be enjoyed by foot, but for further adventures, there are plenty of transportation options. There is a nearby blue bike share hub at the northeast corner of Annunciation Center Park. Enjoy a quick 8-minute walk to St. Charles Ave. and you will find the historic streetcar, taking you anywhere from the French Quarter to Audubon Park. Street parking is easy to find if you bring a rental car. Additionally, taxis and ride shares such as Uber and Lyft, also operate heavily in the area.

Amazing stay in the Garden District
What a perfect place for a visit to New Orleans! The house is beautifully decorated, with plenty of comfortable spaces for relaxing together. It has everything you could possibly need, including toiletries in the bathrooms. The pool was lovely. The location is great, so close to many popular attractions. Communication with the hosts was excellent. We highly recommend it, and hope to return ourselves.

Great location and lovely house
We loved the location of this house, close to many shops and restaurants on Magazine street and walking distance to street car line on St Charles. The downstairs was perfect for a group with a huge kitchen and large living room area that is open to the kitchen. The pool area is very pretty and well maintained. As others noted, there was very little outdoor furniture by the pool, although the hosts informed us that they were waiting on an order of new furniture for that area. We really enjoyed the pool table as well. The hosts were responsive to our questions and we had a great stay.

Unbelievable Experience
I rented this place for a few days around Essence to host a book signing and for overnight accommodations for what turned out to be two guests. Since I can read I asked the hosts upfront if the book signing was a permissible use of the space. It was so I booked. The book signing was scheduled for 5pm-8pm. We were immediately harassed by both a neighbor and the host because “the music was too loud.” IT WAS 5PM! Additionally there is a lot of surveillance happening at the house as the host called me yelling about 30 signals in the house. On to the house itself. The AC is severely lacking and at one point the host began cranking the heat, I assume in an effort to get me to leave. The rooms were hot as hell, there was mold present and the house is not as great as the pictures. The pool was also dirty even though the hosts claim it’s cleaned weekly and as a pool owner I know what it looks like when you have weekly maintenance. It was not just a few leaves as the host suggested. The racism and unprofessional behavior displayed by both the host and the neighbor were absolutely stunning. Regular people should not be in the “hotel/bnb” business.

Gorgeous home in eclectic historical neighborhood. Loved and enjoyed by 9 Seniors even though the stairs were challenging. Decor beautiful and gathering areas spacious. We had some glitches with the plumbing which were promptly repaired. We especially loved being close to Magazine Street, the Bus Stop, and Mojo’s.

Fabulous Mansion in Great Location
We invited family to celebrate our daughter's Medical School graduation May 18th and were thrilled with this property. While initially 10 were booked, 7 ended up coming but we would have had plenty of room for 10 with the 6 bedrooms. The interior and exterior living space is much bigger than it appears from the street. There is a great deal of welcoming entertaining space in both the front and back of the home, with an open concept, well stocked kitchen with plenty of counter seating. Every bedroom is good sized and all our guests commented on the comfortable beds. For those not familiar with these old gracious NOLA homes, you will love the high ceilings and charming furnishings but come prepared for no closets and minimal storage. The back yard pool is such a bonus. Its flowing waterfall keeps it fresh and cool. We would have liked some more pool chairs and beach towels but the host was accommodating to that request and we found some camp chairs. Truly the best part for me, the organizer, was how responsive and helpful the host was for every communication, even months before our arrival. We loved the location, just one block off Magazine Street with great coffee shops, restaurants and funky stores and a 10 minute walk to the St Charles street cars.

Spring Break in NOLA
Don't let the lack of curb appeal sway you, this home is absolutely lovely. As soon as you enter you feel the historic Southern charm. Yet the kitchen and bathrooms have all the modern amenities. It's a perfect blend. With 6 bedrooms there is plenty of space for everyone to have privacy (and beds are very comfortable), and the living room is spacious enough for everyone to gather together. The highlight of the home is the small heated swimming pool in the backyard. We took a dip every day we were there! My only suggestion would be to provide pool towels, so guests don't have to use the bath towels, as well as more outside seating when not in the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will definitely rent again when we return to NOLA.

Great house in a prime location. We had three families staying together, and it was wonderful to have large, comfortable communal spaces and our own bedrooms/bathrooms to retreat to. The pool was a hit with everyone, and seems like a little oasis. Very easy to communicate with the owners when needed.

Great house for a multigenerational family
We were a multigenerational family staying in this huge and beautiful house to celebrate a milestone birthday, which was on Mardi Gras and Super Bowl weekend. Check-in was a bit of a challenge for the the first person to arrive, who was unfamiliar with the keypad door lock. Michael answered when I called and was helpful. Both he and Marcia were responsive to questions via the app, even random ones like “Is the small bird in the large birdcage upstairs a fake or a taxidermy?” (It’s fake.) PROs: - A room available on ground floor for family member with limited mobility - Kitchen was well-stocked with necessities to cook and have meals - Access to washer/dryer - Every room’s night table had a portable charging outlet - In walking distance to the parade routes, shopping, and restaurants/cafes - Neighborhood felt relatively safe, albeit not the smoothest sidewalks and roads. CONs: The pool was not cleaned nor heated. Not a lot of seating either. We spent a lot of time out anyway, and it was chilly a couple of the days, so we didn’t really go to the pool area much. Other things that would’ve been helpful to know beforehand: - Lack of closet space or drawers to store and hang your clothing. - Be careful on the double staircase: part of steps don’t have railings. - Detailed instructions and link to a video on how to operate each of the following: - Keypad door lock - A/C unit - Heat/jets/lights for the pool HIGHLY recommend this house for your large group.

The house is huge and accommodates up to 12 very comfortably. Bathroom layout required some coordination for the group, but the large heated (hot!) pool was a welcome surprise for the winter. Owner was responsive and helpful. Great location near a coffee shop and at the start of a large strip of Magazine St shops, bars and restaurants.

Family Bday celebration in NOLA
This property was lovely and just perfect for our group of 9 family members - mostly young adults - in town for a birthday celebration. The layout of the house is a little unusual but totally understandable for a house of this age and style. Just one bathroom downstairs and it’s the only option for the folks staying in the downstairs bedroom, but that wasn’t a big deal. The cool character of the house and all the amenities more than made up for it. There was plenty of space for us all to gather, and the pool and pool table were a big hit! The location just off Magazine is terrific - so many great food and restaurants within walking distance or a short Uber ride. Mojo Coffee just a few steps from the front door was key! We loved our stay and can’t wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay for our 20th wedding anniversary. The home was the perfect setting for friends and family to join us. The coffee maker was MIA, as soon as we contacted the property owner we had a new one in 15 minutes. A few more towels would be nice since there is a pool. Great property only minutes from the French quarter but the peace and quiet of the Garden district. There is also a wonderful coffee shop at the corner within 2 minute walking distance. We would love to stay here again!
