The caption for this property describes it perfectly. It was so quaint and relaxing! The cottage was tastefully decorated and clean. Our hosts were excellent, making sure we had everything we needed to be comfortable. The refrigerator was stocked with breakfast and drink items. We felt this was so thoughtful and generous of our hosts. We parked in our own spot in the driveway. Neighborhood was very nice. It was a wonderful stay!

Perfect Vacation Space

I greatly enjoyed my stay. The owners of the property have taken great care to create a relaxing place in which every tiny detail is thought out and taken care of in advance. This was the best rental experience I’ve ever had and would be lucky to get to come back.

Even though we expected a private parking spot, beautiful landscaping, and some treats provided, we were blown away by the extent that the owner went through to make our stay special. The location is superb, the foliage beautiful and lush, the kitchen filled with several options for breakfast, and the courtesy and sweetness of the owner is unlike anything I have experienced. I said to my husband that I feel like she is here helping us in a completely non-intrusive way because she has thought of everything! We felt totally safe in this neighborhood. It was quiet and relaxing on the deck where we watched lizards quietly sneaking by. We hope to come back here again!

The cottage was absolutely perfect for us! It was decorated so beautifully and all the special little touches made such a huge impact on our stay. All the added little touches - the coffee, tea, snacks and drinks in the fridge, the New Orleans special treats, the welcome letter from Susan and Eldon, and the beautiful outdoor areas - made this cottage the most wonderful place we have ever stayed. The bed was very comfortable, as well as the comfort of the furnishings. I could have stayed for weeks! Very easy to get to, really liked the boulevards! Great food within the area. Safe and beautiful neighborhood to walk around in and the people of New Orleans were so friendly. Loved our stay and would absolutely come back again but stay longer next time! Susan and Eldon were wonderful hosts and have an absolutely amazing place!

Great guest cottage

This is a wonderful place to stay while visiting New Orleans. The cottage was very comfortable and well-appointed, in a quiet, safe neighbourhood. We cook most of our meals when we travel and the kitchen was great, with many essential items provided by the host. The garden is lovely and gives a very relaxing vibe. If we return to New Orleans, we will stay with Susan and Eldon again.

Susan and Eldon are the best hosts we have ever dealt with! The attention to detail and all of the little extras (too numerous to mention) made our stay extra special. The cottage and courtyard are truly an oasis. The location couldn’t be better.

I’ve stayed in a lot of rentals but I’ve never seen so much care for a cottage than Susan gave this one! We felt very welcomed with her snacks, wine and even beads/masks provided for mardi gras. Cottage was clean, in a safe neighborhood and just a short drive to French Quarter which is what we wanted as we had a rental car and needed parking. I recommend this rental to anyone who wants to explore such a unique city.
