Close to everything with very quiet neighbors. The house was beautiful filled with old New Orleans charm but with a modern amenities. The front porch is a perfect place to sit with a glass of wine, chat with friends, and enjoy watching the geckos running around. The backyard is a nice place to sit and enjoy the sounds of the water fountain and birds. I would highly recommend staying here.

Great house and convenient uptown location walkable to Audubon Park. Living room is so relaxing with lots of CD’s to choose from to set the mood. Comfy beds, great floor plan. Yard and outdoor kitchen are amazing—sadly, rainy weather prevented us from using them— next time! If super cleanliness is your thing, you might be a bit bothered but overall it was perfectly fine for us and anything we needed (like toilet paper) was easy to get at the market across the street. Would definitely stay again :)

It was great for a family trip. Close enough to walk to the trolley, grocery store across the street was very convenient, the CD player was a fun experience for kids to pick out CDs, and it had the New Orleans vibe. Would recommend.

This is a great place. Very convenient for us visiting friends and family and would stay again. Good layout, good kitchen, lots of space for everyone. Only complaints are that the split-system heater in the primary bedroom was very noisy, and the mattresses are sort of B- quality. But the linens were good, pillows fine too. Very nice to have the keurig pods for a quick cup.
