The house was beautiful! Exceptionally well taken care of, beautifully positioned just outside the french quarter and it was super easy to get INTO the French Quarter, but not so close that we felt unsafe. I was a little nervous about street parking for our cars, but tucked back on the side road they were untouched. Had some AC issues, but owner was extremely attentive and communicative and helpful. All in all, a wonderful experience!!!

We could not have had a better weekend. Made a large group of six couples, all friends from high school. The size of the house, the number of bedrooms each with their own individual bathroom, made the house perfect for our stay. The cleanliness, the decor, and the house itself went well beyond expectations. After the long days in the quarter, the pool was a great respite to wind up the day before going to bed and starting all over again. This house could not be any better. Check-in was perfect and flawless, and management was exceptional.

Excellent experience in NOLA

Great house with tons of space for a large group. Each bedroom had an ensuite bathroom which was great for our group of 16.The host was super communicative and handled every small issue that arose. They were even able to help us with a place to store bags after checkout!Worth noting: hot water takes a minute to reach the showers. Be patient and youll have all the hot water you could need.

Beautiful historic home

16 of us stayed very comfortably in this lovely home for 3 days and had a great time. Common rooms were spacious and beds were comfy and each bedroom had its own bathroom. The pool area was a big hit. Instructions for the dishwasher would have been helpful as it’s a brand we weren’t familiar with.

We rented this house for our large group and the host was great, pool was amazing, although we were only able to use it one day because it got cold. The rooms were clean, beds were very comfortable. Having a bathroom in every room was great as well! Would totally recommend this place for anyone that is looking to visit New Orleans with a big group!

Great management and comfortable stay for group of 16

My group of 16 stayed at this house and it was a great spot for us. It was fun staying in a historic home and it looks even better in person. This house is very spacious and could have comfortably fit 18. Each of my guests appreciated the en suite bathrooms. Pros: Any messages I had sent leading up to or during the trip were responded to nearly immediately. Management of this space was great and made me feel confident staying here. The tram is so convenient we used public transportation primarily to get around. When we did call uber/lyft all the drivers in the area knew of this house because how it stands out. Bedrooms had firm memory foam mattresses, and each room was unique, modern and clean. Plenty of seating for big groups in the common area, and kitchen was stocked with plenty of dish ware and utensils. The house area was just far enough away from the busy downtown area that it felt safe and quiet. Pool area already looked awesome (esp. at night) and new furniture was moving in after we left. Cons: This area is quiet except for the occasional ambulance sirens that went on throughout the night d/t it being right next to a hospital. Surprisingly, my guests and I did not notice it making a problem for our sleep. The third floor room is an attic space so it does get warmer than the other floors when the heating is on. Some guests mentioned having to run the water a little bit longer to get hot water for the showers.

New Orleans charm for a close group

There were 15 of us staying in the house. Each couple had their own comfortable bedroom and en suite bath, which was perfect. The pictures online accurately depict the actual conditions. The tastefully restored house was spotlessly clean with plenty of space for all of us to gather. There are interesting books on the coffee table about the history of the house. We loved the pool and backyard, especially in the evenings after a day of sightseeing. It was easy to take the street car to the French Quarter and the Garden District. We heard a little bit of traffic noise, but it did not prevent us from sleeping. Ear plugs solved any issues. The house itself was quiet and we didn’t hear anything between rooms. It would have been nice to have a couple close restaurants but we did find a neighborhood market for essentials. Highly recommend for a group of friends or a family gathering.

Amazing History and Space

First of all this property is beautiful. You can tell there has been so much history dating back to the 1800's. One of my favorite properties I have ever stayed at in the past 10 years. We had a group of 13 and were able to all sleep comfortably. Bathrooms in every bedroom made getting ready a snap. Great outdoor pool area to relax during the hot weather. Location is good, but there is not much around the house. This was great for us as we didn't want our noise reaching neighbors. 15 min walk to French Quarters, just be careful at night.5-15 min Uber anywhere you need in town.

Amazing Choice

This house comfortably slept 14 of us for a long weekend and could have easily slept 16 without ever feeling cramped. The quality of the house was even better than the pictures and the pool was a necessity given the July temperatures, and we were very close to the French Quarter. Lastly the host was very responsive to my emails throughout our stay. I’d recommend this listing to anyone visiting.

NOLA all the way!

So as usual, most VRBO’s in New Orleans have wonderful uniqueness and this one did not disappoint. After dealing with a few items, we settled in very nicely and it was smooth sailing. Landlords were very attentive every step of the way on this one. Location is a bit of an “island” just outside the FQ, but position was beneficial. Lots of stairs it using all the bdms. Kitchen, BBQ, Towels and linens were top notch. We had fun!

Great for a group

I stayed here with a group of 11. The house fit our group well. We didn’t have a chance to utilize the pool, but it looked clean. The house is by itself on a block, which is nice because we weren’t too concerned about making noise. There isn’t much around the house, so you’ll need to ride share to your destination. The house is located on a busy street right next to a hospital, so you might have trouble sleeping if you’re a light sleeper.
