  • Excellent accommodations. The house manager is most helpful. She even coordinated an authentic New Orleans dinner, catered in this fabulous home. AC is a plus, especially in the summer months :). We will return.

  • Had a wonderful time in New Orleans for nephew's graduation from Tulane. This lovely house provided a great family meeting place with its ample sleeping arrangements and good location. Best of all it provided a taste of old New Orleans with its impecably restored and appointed accomodations. Owners and local contact were very helpful and accomodating to our schedule. Definitively recommended!

  • What a fantastic house! The unbelievably tall ceilings, wooden fixtures, and soft pastels made this feel truly like an old Bayou house, and could never be rivaled by a hotel. It's easy to get to, on a quiet street, and close to trolley and local retailers and eating. I would never want to stay anywhere upon my next visit to New Orleans.

  • Our group of friends has been coming to New Orleans each year for the last ten years. The first few years, we stayed in a hotel in the Quarter, the next few at the Ritz-Carlton, and the last two years at homes we found on VRBO. For us, the priority is a layout in which we can all be connected and able to talk as a group (usually 8 of us) as much of the trip as possible. This home is perfect for that! The bedrooms are all upstairs, so you can easily step from one to the other to talk. The kitchen, tv room, and formal living area all have enough seating for everyone to sit comfortably to chat. The other priority for our group is location, and this home is ideally suited for spending time on Magazine and in the Quarter. You can set off walking on Magazine or take a quick cab ride to the Quarter. All the conveniences for coffee and quick snacks are within a block. In addition to working for us logistically, the house is really lovely. Windows and light. Well- decorated and preserved. The owners were flexible and easy to work with, and the rate is very reasonable. We expect to be back next year if it isn't all booked up!

  • The "Magazine St." house was "headquarters" for our family reunion during the New Year of 2008. The location was perfect for almost anything one would want to do in the Cresent City. The house is the quintessential New Orleans experience and extremely comfortable. Even though we had less than 10 staying over night we frequently hosted dinners for 20 or more. The kitchen is most accommodating and luxurious. We had all 16 dress up in black and white clothing, from area Thrift Stores, except for Grandmother, who wore red. Our reunion photo was taken in the opulent red and white living room. It was a vacation that will be lovingly remembered by all. 1448 Magazine is highly recommended!
