My husband and I had a weekend getaway to New Orleans in late November of 2011 and stayed in this beautifully restored 19th century home. It is everything and much more than is described on this site. Beautiful setting with period antiques and appointments; complete kitchen if you decide to cook a romantic meal and dine on the balcony; clean and extremely comfortable; and the owner is a wealth of knowledge on the history of the home and the city. My husband and I are making plans to return in the spring, and we can't wait! You will not be disappointed.
Owner response:Thank you so very much. It was a please having such appreciative guests as you both certainly are. It is extra enjoyable for me when I meet people from other cities who admire the old architecture as you did. I truly enjoyed meeting you during your visit and hope to get more guests as gracious as you in the future. I do hope to see you in the spring.

We found this place after trying to get a room for 2 nights at all our regular spots in the French Quarter. This is an immaculate home, very beautiful with lovely antiques. Much cleaner than the places we've stayed at in the French Quarter and would definitely stay here again. The neighborhood is fine. We felt quite comfortable walking around during the day. Don't think we would do that after dark tho. Some of our group took a cab to the French Quarter in the evening - $6.00. We did drive there a few times also. It is only 7 blocks or so. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook and we got take out food one night as we just wanted to relax. The landlord allowed us to check in an hour early. He lives in one of the apartments and was very hospitable. If you want a clean, lovely place with a lot of character, this is a good safe place.
Owner response:You were lovely guests and represent the type people I work so hard to please, thank you for staying it was a pleasure to make you comfortable.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, sightseeing, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.

House is beautiful and host is charming and helpful The house is in a convenient location between the French Quarter and City Park. It has been and continues to be lovingly restored by the owner, who was happy to tell us about its history and his efforts before and since Katrina. It was very clean and well appointed with many lovely antiques. Architecture amazing - 13 foot ceilings, huge doors, stunning staircase, original wood floors. The upstairs master suite in particular is breathtaking. There is a balcony and a back porch that we enjoyed. Our party of 8 adults occupied three of the suites and had loads of room. It would be great for a longer stay as well because the kitchens are fully equipped. Can't say enough good things about customer service. We are runners and ran twice in City Park, which is fabulous. Had great food at Acme Oyster House, Remolade, Court of Two Sisters jazz brunch. Drove to all of those. Tour bus picked us up at the house for 3 hour tour that includes French Quarter, Garden District, cemeteries, and 9th Ward. Overall trip was a great experience and we hope to return to this fabulous house.
