  • What a great place! We've stayed at many vacation rentals here in the United States and throughout Europe and this is one of the BEST! It is lovely, comfortable and thoughtfully well appointed. It is convenient to the French Quarter,close to wonderful restaurants and jazz clubs. Mark and Ron are great hosts and very willing to offer assistance or answer questions. We will definitely be returning.

  • As Tina Turner would say, "You're simply the best. Better than all the rest..." You guys nailed it. This place is awesome. Nothing was missed. The cottage is a short walk to the quarter. Lots of restaurants deliver so if you are tired after a long day, Ron and Mark will give you some suggestions. You can kick back and relax to their great collection of music. Some of our highlights were: Pearl River Eco Tour in Slidell. Capt. Neil gives a fun tour. Stop for lunch at Turtle Landing Cafe on Hwy 60 E. A dive, but a NICE dive. Eat outside on the swamp. Mulate's for great food, music and dance. Try the blackened catfish and fried gator. WWll Museum. Need I say more? Laura and Oak Alley Plantations in Vacherie. Stop for a meal at B&C Seafood and Cajun. The owner will even show you how to eat the crawfish. Lots of good stuff to take back to the cottage. We chose New Orleans to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary not knowing any one. We left with great memories and 2 new wonderful friends. Ron and Mark. Thank you both for everything. When you get back to San Francisco look us up. We know a couple of great places to take you to lunch. Hugs, Bob and Marilyn Novato, CA

  • We spent 9 days at Pauger Street cottage and truly enjoyed our stay. We have visited NOLA every April for the past 5 or 6 years and have always stayed in the Marigny. Ron & Mark were wonderful hosts, loved the privacy & private hot tub, slept like a baby in the great bed. An all around wonderful stay. Absolutely recommend.

  • My husband and I stayed at Ron & Mark's lovely creole cottage for 2 1/2 weeks last winter and we had an absolutely fantastic time. The accommodations are delightful, the amenities are perfect and Ron & Mark are the most gracious hosts. The cottage is in a wonderful neighborhood, close to the French Quarter, the Charles Street trolly and to all the great jazz clubs on Frenchmen Street. I've been to New Orleans many times and this cottage was my favorite place to stay, It fun to ' live like a local outside the french Quarter.' Stay here, it a great experience!

  • What a great place! We will definately be back! Ron and Mark were fantastic hosts and the place was about as relaxing and comfortable as you could possibly wish for when traveling. I don't think I have ever slept in a more comfortable bed. The area was very easy to get around in and made for a great home base. Cannot say enough about the place, Ron and Mark have all the bases covered, thanks again guys!

  • Tony & I loved our stay here. Talk about a sweet spot--I'm almost afraid to say too many nice things for fear it will be booked up the next time we want to visit. Ron & Mark are gracious, attentive hosts who respected our privacy while ensuring we had everything we needed to feel comfortable and pampered (loved the robes!). The location is quiet, yet close enough to the action that we walked everywhere we wanted to go--do check out the great jazz at Snug Harbor--and the bed BY FAR the most comfortable we've ever rented. A perfect week in the magic city: who could ask for more? Many thanks!

  • I stayed in the cottage for a long weekend in January and was beyond impressed with the accomodations. I'm familar with New Orleans, having been here about 6-7 times, although I had only stayed in hotels. The cottage is the best way to get true feel of New Orleans. Similar to other guest comments, the pictures do not do the house justice. The house is meticulous with nice furnishings, great amenities and wonderful location. I will definitely be coming back....

  • My husband and I had the opportunity to rent Ron and Mark's Creole cottage last week. The cottage is wonderfully furnished, the bed is extremely comfortable and the hot tub is great! It is obvious they take pride in their cottage and ensure that the experience is memorable. One of the nicest things about the experience was meeting Ron and Mark. They are the warmest, most gracious hosts we have ever met. They opened their home and their hearts to us, and we count them as new friends.

  • My girlfriends and I stayed here in July for a bachelorette weekend of sorts. The place was great, owners were friendly and helpful (eepecially when we locked ourselves out!). Need to add Angeli's on Decatour to the list of 'must-eats' you can walk to from the house though!
