Great property in a transitional neighborhood

The property was great to stay at. My company had an off-site trip and the house had enough room for all of us. It was easy walking distance to CBD and the French Quarter. The neighborhood is in transition and has some parts that are a bit rough around the edges. But, my team felt safe and greatly enjoyed the experience.

Our group was 11 older, men college-buddies in NO for a fishing outing on Lake Ponchartrain. The unit was almost perfect for our group. I mistakenly thought this was a single compound and that our rooms were the entirety of the rental. I also did not read that smoking isn’t allowed anywhere on the property. I assume smoking was OK outside and around the pool. No one in our group smokes cigarettes, But, part of our tradition is having a moment where we smoke cigars in an outdoor setting. Any minor issues we had were promptly addressed by staff. The pool area is very nice, peaceful and insular. We had a great time.

Nola jazz fest 50th birthday girls trip

We had such an amazing time, all 17 of us. Plenty of room, plenty of bathrooms, two fridges were super useful. Lots of towels and really nice shampoos, soaps and wash. We were told small conveniences would be provided but were not, but not a game changer...aluminum foil or wrap and sugar for coffee and only one roll of paper towel. The hot tub was not clean. A few extra kitchen towels would be nice. Otherwise it was convenient for walking to everything and the decor was just brilliant. We all toured the artists photos of the making of the murals. It was so great! We hired a private chef and a guy who made a crawfish boil, highly recommend. Insta Cart was quick to this location We absolutely loved this house and would stay again. Thank you!
