Excellent stay! Clean, comfortable, well appointed, beautiful historic house in celebrated neighborhood. Close enough to walk to French Quarter, but also easy access to to other areas of town. Great back deck area. Exceeded my expectations.
The beds were great. Check in was super easy. The only complaint we would have is the hot water did not last long enough for 2 people to shower completely without the water getting super cold. We would stay again
This house was perfect for our group of nine for a bachelorette party during Mardi Gras celebrations! The host was very responsive leading up to the trip, check-in/check-out was seamless, the location was great, and the home itself was spacious & clean. The pictures don’t do the property justice. I would recommend this house to my friends & family!
The house is beautiful and more than enough room for our group. Easy walk to the French Quarter. Even though it is a pretty busy street and super close to the interstate - the outside noise was not an issue and did not disrupt our sleep. The back yard area is fenced and relaxing. The hosts were helpful for the quick question that we had. Great sray!
The house was very spacious and our small group had a lot of room to rest and relax without interfering with others. We took a step into history by spending our vacation days in a historic New Orleans neighborhood. .
What a great location and home for large groups in NOLA! We walked everywhere from the residence and were a few short minutes from a grocery store with everything we needed. Right next to the highway for easy in and out access to Airport and Swamp Tours. Communication from hosts was exceptional throughout! Pool, Deck, Kitchen and Dining Room were the perfect gathering places!
The house exceeded my expectations. It was bigger than I expected, and had a great atmosphere that I didn't really expect either. My group, which consisted of my family and my in-laws and their children, were very pleased with the overall New Orleans charm that the house evoked. We'd love to stay here again in the future for another trip to the Big Easy. Walking distance to the French Quarter. The hosts were always in contact and made us feel welcome.
A little tricky to get to only due to New Orleans streets, not impressive at first glance due to all ground floor windows being shuttered. Once we got inside it was charming with lots of historic detail, plenty of comfy beds and areas to gather. We would stay there again!
We had such a great stay at this home! They were very prompt with any questions we had and were more than accomodating when the hurricane hit and making sure we were safe! We will definately be staying again!
Our group of ten were very pleased with this home. The caretakers were extremely easy to deal with and the home is in great condition. Loved the back deck as well.
We had the best time in New Orleans celebrating my husband’s 50th Birthday.
The house was great for a large group. Very clean inside. We enjoyed the kitchen opening up to the back patio.
It’s about a 20 minute walk to the French Quarter and Frenchman Street. We would take different streets each time and enjoy the unique architecture and scenery.

Problem stay
This property has been poorly maintained. Lost hot water half-way through the first shower of the day. Right by the Claiborne Ave overpass, the street noise was loud, worse at night with gunshots, and street party under the overpass on Sunday night. Quality of the furnishings was marginal. Mattresses were uncomfortable. Host was responsive when called.

As deceptive as it gets...stay here if you've ever wanted to experience tent city
When I first saw the listing and location radius, it looked like a great place with plenty of space for myself and 5 other work colleagues for a business retreat. Little did I know that the area that the listing suggested it was in was many blocks away from the true address, and of course the listing has a no refund policy. Our group stuck with the plan given the fact we couldn't get our money back and were shocked to realize that we were directly across the street from a homeless encampment. The wi-fi in the house never worked, but we were able to use phone hotspots to make things work. The neighborhood was loud at night, but we were able to sleep through it for the most part...until on the final night of our stay (a Sunday) the neighborhood started having a part of the century with concert level music playing until 1am and street races happening the entire time. The final straw was when a homeless person woke us up in early AM hours breaking into the house until myself and one other had to chase him out. I have never been concerned about something like this happening, let alone truly experience it.
When I confronted the property manager about the situation they were very defensive and asked that we "keep the matters private". The posting was then mysteriously absent from VRBO. Every aspect about this property was horrible and I would implore anyone to find LITERALLY any other location to stay at if visiting New Orleans.
