Map & Owner's Profile
Historic Home Sleeps 6 - Only Steps Away from the Quarter!
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose New Orleans
Although Katrina forced us to turn our own residence into a vacation rental, we find New Orleans a very special place so we decided to open up our home to others so they can experience the magic of this city.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Our house is very close not only to the French Quarter, but it is only a few minutes walk to Frenchman St. and many local restaurants and bars. If you are looking to explore the city on foot, this location is perfect and does not require you to rent a car to see the city. We almost never use a vehicle when we are in town because everything you need is close by. But for those days you just want to sit back and relax, nowhere is your time better spent then on our back porch, overlooking the tropical courtyard, sipping on a nice cocktail!
Owner's Map of New Orleans
New Orleans has always been a favorite destination for us and our dreams became reality when we bought this house in the spring of 2005, relocating permanently to the city. Only a few months later Katrina hit and forced us to find new jobs in another city. Although we live most of the year away from NOLA, it stays in our hearts wherever we go, however we still get down as often as possible.
