One of the greatest things about this home is its location in beautiful uptown New Orleans.

It is a quick 10 minute drive to downtown New Orleans and world-famous French Quarter.

Great location, great porch, very homey house
This is my second time staying here and I love the uptown location. The home is well maintained and the owners very easy to work with. We will be back!
I lived in NOLA in the mid 80s, and have always dreamed of moving back to my heart city. I was lucky enough to be able to visit for 2 months on my most recent visit. To say that The Dryades House exceeded my expectations is putting it lightly. The house is quaint, well mantained and a perfect example of a shotgun NOLA house. The owners were accommodating and VERY helpful. The house was well stocked with essentials so I didn't need to get to a store immediately to buy things. The absolute best part of the house tho', was it's location, which is just 3 blocks from St Charles Ave and 1 block from Napoleon...in the heart of uptown. I was only 3 blocks from the Mardi Gras parades!! The house is also only 3 blocks from the street car that runs up and down St. Charles. Great restaurants are within walking and street car distance. Pascal's Manale, Vincent's, Camilla Grill. While, sadly, I realize a move back to NOLA probably isn't in the cards, I have already booked The Dryades House for next year!!
The house fit group perfectly. It was clean and quiet with historic charm which was exactly what we were looking for. Having a good coffee shop across the street only made it better.
We returned to Dryades House for the 4th time July 21-26, 2017. It is a warm, cozy, funky, comfortable home away from home. There is more than ample space, a kitchen, washer/dryer....all the amenities you could want in a vacation rental. The management and owner are quick to respond and give help where needed. Love staying here over a hotel. The price is right, there are two bedrooms here, a parlor, 2 bathrooms....comfort and amenities unlimited! There are wonderful eateries in the neighborhood that you can walk to! For example, Charlies Steakhouse is ACROSS THE STREET! The food is sublime, management and staff there treat you like friends and family. If you want to be in a quiet and comfortable place for your NOLA stay, book this property. You won't be disappointed.
Perfect house, perfect location, clean and wonderful.
