Everything was wonderful! No complaints at all! My only note to future guests- the driveway is a little hard to get in and out of (especially if you have a large vehicle) since it’s at an intersection on a busy road.

Excellent place and location

The house has been updated in the kitchen and bathrooms. The rest of the house has been renovated but still has the old southern feel. Probably the most clean property I have ever rented. 1.5 miles to downtown and plenty of restaurants in a 6 mile radius.

Very clean and spacious. Beds were very comfortable. Great location. Great host… Lance checked in with us a couple times during our stay. Loved that we didn’t have a long check list of things to do before departure. If there were to be any critiques, i would suggest a shade or curtain in the bathrooms and the house was very hot upon arrival and took several hours to cool down. No issues once it was cooled, though. Would definitely stay here again.

Touring LSU

We came for our daughter to tour LSU. This house was convenient to everything including dining, shopping, and LSU. The house was immaculate with great design taste and comfy furniture. Lance stayed in communication with us in case we needed anything. We would stay here if again when we make it back to Baton Rouge.

Magnificent House

We loved this house, the neighborhood, and our weekend in Baton Rouge. Further, this is the first time I have ever stayed in a rental that was significantly *nicer* than it appeared in the pictures. Great place house.The only thing holding back a five-star rating is that we had a (small) plumbing challenge during our stay; reached out to the owner; and never received a response. Overall, I would stay here again.

Convenient location!

Clean home, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The home is recently updated, and they did a great job keeping original features that make this classic Garden District home so charming! Easy check-in, convenient location, with plenty of little guest friendly touches (makeup wipes, coffee aplenty, fans in each bedroom). My husband and I shared the rental with friends, and we kept talking about how nice the place is!

Nice

Minimum frustrations like not being able to get back in house after a morning out and owner could reset the lock without being there.That unnerved us. Also did not get arrival instructions until requested, which is unnerving late in the same day you are supposed to be leaving.

About the host

Hosted by Lance Daggs

Host profile image
Born and raised in the New Orleans area. While a student at LSU, I worked in hotels where I gained valuable guest services experience. I dreamt of owning a hotel one day. Owning and operating multiple short term rentals has allowed me to fulfill my passion in hospitality and providing great experiences for others. I pride myself on offering a space that is of quality, comfortable, clean, and safe. Thank you for considering my space for your short term rental experience!

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property because of it's location. It's minutes to downtown, LSU and many other attractions and restaurants. It is in the heart of Mid City, an area that is experiencing a tremendous amount of growth and revitalization.

What makes this property unique

This home could not be built today the way it was originally built. It's a solid house with original wood flooring, plaster walls and ceilings, solid wood wainscoting and original wood windows. There are what used to be 4 fireplaces that have transitioned to being decorative over the years. The home has a rich history. It was once an antique store. More recently, it was a law office, which explains the library of law books in the front bedroom. I've converted the property back into a home.
