Such a beautiful property. Lovely place, comfortable, clean, and convenient!Only thing would have liked to have had a heads up on, is the "courtyard" area is a shared space with 3 other units.But absolutely no complaints about any of it! Host was very helpful at any time of the day.

After traveling from Houston then being rear ended on i10 we got to the house super late and had trouble finding the house in the dark but the Host responded super quick and was very helpful. The house was perfect for my husband, pup and I. Huge yard and everything you need for a quick trip. Walmart and restaurants 5 mins down the road and the Hosts restaurant recommendations were amazing! We needed a later check out due to a cheer competition and the Host was very accommodating. The only thing I will say is there are multiple rental properties on the lot, so you might run into some neighbors that share the same drive-way and yard. Overall, great stay and great Host!

We enjoyed our stay at the Mardi Gras Cottage. It was clean and the location was quiet. The Audubon Trail was close enough to bicycle to. We felt secure and enjoyed the proximity to New Orleans proper. We would love to return sometime.Thank you Michael!

The location was great! The place was clean, the neighborhood was nice. We walked the neighborhood two times during our stay, appears to be safe, no concerns. The place is pet friendly, there are bags and pooper scoopers for you to pick up after your dog. If we come back to New Orleans we will choose this place. One thing I will say, the place is a little dated, so if you want luxury, you will have to spend more money. :) The other thing we would like to have known is there were other people staying on the property. It appears there are three cottages together. One day we came back to the place and there were two people sitting on the patio drinking. It was a little alarming, but they were friendly. We did not have any contact with the host, as everything was laid out in the welcoming email. This is an excellent place to stay, convenient location, and the price is right!
