This was our third time staying at this property and it was as lovely as ever. It’s clean, close to many amenities, and offers easy access to all of the best New Orleans hotspots. Once again, we happily recommend the Nelson St House.
Amazing house we enjoyed for a family spring break trip. Great location with handy driveway parking spot. Excellent hosts that thrive on quality, timely communication and follow through. We would highly recommend staying in the Nelson House!
This is our second visit to the Nelson house. We love staying here. Besides that it is only a few blocks from our daughter’s apartment, the hosts are very responsive and have created a wonderful place to vacation. Will definitely be back!
We had a great stay in NOLA. The house is EXACTLY as advertised. Clean, fully stocked, convenient and well cared for. Communication with the home owner was excellent. We will be staying here again next time we visit NOLA.

Thank you for staying with us and we hope to host you again!
Cute house. Decor was a bit eclectic, but very functional. Two nice office spaces so both my wife and I were able to take phone calls for work. Main bathroom was good with excellent shower. Second bathroom was EXTREMELY small. Convenient location in good, quiet neighborhood. with a short walk to street car or easy Uber into town.
Great location. We found driving was the easiest way to get around. Literally 15 minutes from everything! The house was clean and perfect for for our group.
My family had a lovely stay in New Orleans at the Nelson house. The home is beautiful, spacious and clean and has the character and charm the city is famous for. We enjoyed a number of meals that we cooked at the house when we weren’t eating out.
The neighborhood was quiet and pretty.
This house is just adorable. It has everything you would need for your stay. It’s close to the street car that can take you anywhere in New Orleans.
The beds are super comfortable and the sheets were dreamy. I would highly recommend
