What an amazing house!

5 of 5
Submitted: October 25, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
A few colleauges and I stayed here during a conference. I have to agree with previous reviews that the pictures simply do not do the house justice. What an amazing place. there were 10 of us but we did not feel crowded at all. The house has 16 foot ceilings on both floors with lots of wonderful detailed crowning and such. The kitchen was a great place to hang out and had everything we could think of. We had a couple of get-togethers and everyone was amazed at the house. And that master bathroom! Wow! Karen was great, she met one of us to let us in and show us around and always responded very quickly to any questions we had.
Really, what a great place! I can't wait for the next conference to stay there again!

Nice Family Vacation

5 of 5
Submitted: July 30, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
My 3 kids - ages 22, 20 & 16 - had an amazing time at this house. We stayed 5 nights and would have bought the place if we could have. House was furnished with everything you could need. Felt very safe in the house.
My daughter played the piano for me and I thought that was a big plus having a tuned piano for guest.
This house would easily hold many more people, but the four of us were very happy in the house. Thank you Karen for all your emails as that made me very comfortable knowing I was getting a nice place after traveling several states away. AC worked great - no moldy or weird smells - just really perfect. Thanks for allowing us to enjoy the big easy, in a big easy way.

Authentic New Orleans Experience

5 of 5
Submitted: November 3, 2011 Stayed: October 2011
This house is amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. The house was lovingly restored and everything was impeccably maintained. The decor was period appropriate without being stuffy and there was plenty of room for our group of 6 adults. The location is awesome too. It's in a beautiful neighborhood, close to shops and restaurants and also the World War II museum. We really felt like we were locals staying in this house. The WWII museum is a must see. . .even if you think you know everything about WWII, the experience provided by the museum is really unique. We had several amazing meals on Magazine St.; La Petit Grocery and Juan's Flying Burrito just to name a few. Good antique shopping on Magazine too. The property manager was very helpful and accomodating when checking us in and out. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone staying in NOLA.

Birthday Celebration

5 of 5
Submitted: July 21, 2011 Stayed: May 2011
I was put in charge of finding the accommodations for my Mom's 80th birthday celebration. I am an experienced traveler, traveled all over the world, along with owning my own rental property that I also advertise on VRBO. My Mom, Aunt and Uncle grew up in New Orleans but moved away many years ago. I had to try hard to satisfy them since they were very familiar with the homes in the area. I did tremendous research before committing to this property. Luckily, no one was disappointed with my selection.

From the moment you walk into this home, you can tell it is oozing with New Orleans charm. What a wonderful place. From the super high ceilings, wood floors, floor to ceiling windows, to the moldings and claw footed tub, we felt like we were living in the past. Don't get me wrong, all the modern conveniences were there such as two great working air conditioners and a gourmet kitchen. Our group of 9 people ranging from 21 to 80 had an awesome time. We were not disappointed with anything in this lovely home.
Check in was so easy. There was someone waiting for us upon our arrival to give us keys and tell us how everything worked and what we needed to do when we left.
The home is very centrally located to the city. If you do not have a car, you can easily walk two blocks to the street car that takes you almost any where you need to go. There is a small convenience store about a block away, a regular grocery store (Breaux Mart - 3233 Magazine St.) and a Walgreens (3227 Magazine) about a mile away going uptown. It is pretty hard to get lost.
I am also a runner and ran different directions each day. The first day we ran to the French Quarter and back (about 5 miles) and the next day we ran uptown on Magazine to Napoleon to St. Charles and back (also about 5 miles). The following day I drove a few miles to Audubon Park for another great run. Although being hot and humid, the scenery was great.
We also entertained larger groups during our stay. Everyone seemed to hang out in the kitchen area (where most good parties usually do) and eat the food. There was always plenty of room regardless of the size of the group.
Again, I cannot say enough good things about this place. When we return to New Orleans we will definitely stay here again.
Todd, thank you for opening up your home. Our trip was perfect.

A wonderful home!

5 of 5
Submitted: May 24, 2011 Stayed: May 2011
My daughter graduated from Medical School and we rented the home for the weekend. The home was clean, spacious, and decorated beautifully. The outdoor garden has lovely plants and a great place to sit. The ceiling are very high with beautiful crystal chandeliers. The kitchen is a place I would have loved to have had the time to use. Both the property and owner and manager were very available for questions. This is a wonderful home that you would be lucky to rent.
