Family getaway to New Orleans! My husband and daughter’s first time to the Big Easy with 4 adults, an infant, and our dog. It was the perfect place outside of the city, but still close enough to make a couple of trips a day to the French Quarter. The house had everything we needed, including a yard for our dog, and the host was attentive and available at a moments notice! The neighbors were also welcoming and the area was quiet! We will definitely be back!
This house was perfect. Very clean and comfortable and spacious. We were 4 adults, visiting Laura plantation and World War 2 museum and found this property perfectly located in between. Walter thought of everything- home is very well furnished and supplied with all needs. It's just as nice as the photos. We enjoyed a great restaurant just down the street. The power went out only for a couple hours with some weather and Walter was kind to check in on us, he even had a Handy flashlight in the closet. We will definitely stay again!
The place was extremely well appointed. The dishes, linens and decor was all top-of-the-line. In fact, I have to say I have never stayed anywhere that had a diffuser on the blow dryer in the bathroom and I always need one for my curly hair so thank you for that extra thoughtfulness! They left us small things like coffee pods, laundry soap and even plastic bags and half-and-half. It was very well stocked and super clean! The only reason I didn’t give this a five star was the location was a little bit offputting. it’s in the center of an industrial area so if you would like to take a walk or run in the morning, this location would not really be aesthetically pleasing. The neighborhood is so so. The house next-door is rundown. But I didn’t feel unsafe because it seems like a lot of great people live around there. Destrehan itself is a friendly community and we really enjoyed everyone we met. I would say the only thing I would change is the beds are a little hard maybe put a mattress topper on it to give it a little more softness. Walter was very responsive overall it was wonderful. Great place if you have a family and the bathtub was just extraordinary. It’s a nice deep soaking tub. Would stay there again if ever in NOLA.
3 night stay to visit family. The home was very cute and clean. The neighborhood was quiet. Would definitely rent again the next time we come to New Orleans.
