DeAndrea's house was better than we anticipated. It checked all our boxes and was true to her listing. The house truly felt like home for our group of 6. The kitchen had all we needed for meals and the living room was great for all of us to sit around and play games. The backyard had an overhang covering the table and chairs, so it was nice to sit out there in the evening for awhile, and even when is was raining. There are plenty of grocery stores and restaurants nearby (driving, not walking) which was very convenient. During the day we drove to the French Quarter area and then found with the cost of parking, it was just easier and cheaper to take an Uber/Lift instead, especially at night. If I come back to the area like I hope, this will be on the top of my list of places to stay. Check out Free Tours By Foot for some local tourist tours. You won't find them advertised like all the other tours in the area, and the tours are more personable I think.
