Authentic Creole Cottage - Steps to French Quarter

21-RSTR-07699 Exp 02/08/24
23-OSTR-01371 Exp 02/08/24
Charming historic 1837 Creole Cottage, on the border of the fabled French Quarter and storied birthplace of Jazz..
Armstrong Park, stomping grounds of the famous Mardi Gras Indians, the Backstreet Cultural Museum (Mardi Gras Indian Museum), and St Augustine Church line our street.. Adjacent to Rampart Street, the beginning of the French Quarter.
Steps away from culture and excitement, the Saenger is close by, yet a peaceful step back in time inside.
Parking easily available and no cost or time restrictions directly in front on either side of our street.
Step outside your rear kitchen door into a classic Orleans hidden semi private garden courtyard....

Adorable town home, within walking distance from the French quarter! Very nice and well kept with the cutest back patio. An added bonus was Key’s fried chicken around the corner, we got it way too much.

Wonderful stay, ambiance of the place put us in the groove of N’awlins. AC was great and the home was generously furnished with everything needed. Host was very attentive and helpful with great restaurant and activity suggestions. The only downside was the steep and narrow stairwell which I guess is common for these vintage homes. Near the French Quarter and close to all the action (walking distance).

This was an amazing stay close to all the happening stuff! It was old and charming and decorated with lots of purples and reds to really fit the vibe! Walking steps to all the good spots. Had amenities like soap and laundry, pods, and extra blankets and pillows. We had left something in the house and the host responded immediately and was extremely helpful going out of his way.The courtyard was beautiful, and it was really nice to wake up slow and have breakfast on the patio and a bloody Mary!Unfortunately, this place is not haunted, so you might wanna hook up with a vampire cemetery tour on your trip. Jk Sleeps for, but honestly could sleep five with the upstairs loft couch. Will stay again !!

This was a charming, sweet place. The location, if you're not going to stay directly in the French Quarter, was great! Just a few blocks off and probably quieter! Eric was a wonderful host. He amended an issue we were having, with great communication. And he let us store our luggage on the last day and have later check out which was appreciated!

Our visit to New Orleans

We loved staying at this cute little place. It was super convenient to walk to the French Quarter or to catch a streetcar or Uber to other parts of the city. I recommend this place for a small group.
