The Space:
Ma Maison Marigny. Located in Faubourg Marigny, a bohemian paradise near the French Quarter. This traditional "shotgun double" is the perfect place to experience what it's like to live in an authentic N'awlins neighborhood. For those not familiar with the term, "a shotgun" is a home where one room leads directly into another. Guests will occupy one side of the "double", or duplex.

Ma Maison is fully furnished and equipped...a real home away from home. There is a living room, three bedrooms, and an eat-in kitchen, and bath. There is also a lovely back yard, just the right setting for that morning cup of coffee. The home has central air/heat, dishwasher, wi-fi, DVD disk player, Chromecast, and television with local channels. There is on street parking, and a full security system.

You will have complete access to the right side of the “double" from front sidewalk to back yard.

Other fun facts: our block and our house were the background to a scene in season 3 of the popular tv show American Horror Story. Beonce's sister Solange got married in the Marigny Opera House a few blocks away. Beonce and Jay-Z are known to hang out at the Hi-Ho Lounge, a neighborhood institution, three blocks away on St. Claude Ave. Countless coffee shops, little restaurants, traditional boutiques & craft shops, and tiny antique stores await your discovery around almost every corner. Two blocks away, The Franklin is one of the newest restaurant hotspots in the city, reservations are recommended. Anna's down the street is the chill, quirky place where chef-made pop-ups are available most nights, after your game of pool and before the DJ's set. Head to St. Claude ave and experience nightlife that's a little off the beaten path. Catch a burlesque show, a rock band, or have fun at the Emporium arcade.

Known as "the locals' Bourbon Street", getting to nearby Frenchmen street is a short walk where you find real New Orleans jazz played live at the venerable ol' stand-by's like Snug Harbor, Spotted Cat, and Apple Barrel, and other hotspots like Three Muses, d.b.a, Blue Nile, and The Maison!. There is shopping nearby, the new Crescent Park on the Mississippi, the historic Old Mint, the wonderful old Creole homes and mansions of Esplanade Street, and then also the French Market, Decatur Street shopping and people-watching, Jackson Square and the Vieux Carre (French Quarter)! From Ma Maison, you can rent extra bikes nearby or have a wonderful 15-minute stroll to the "Quarter", or just get uber rides. This is the place you'll be reminiscing about later, and telling your kids all about - when they're a little older! Laissez les bon temps roulez!
