Chris and Jane were very accommodating! Our flight was delayed and we didn't arrive at the house until 1am, but Chris was there to greet us, give us a run-through of the house and provide tips on what to do and see in New Orleans. They also left a few essentials in the kitchen which was very much appreciated (coffee, milk for coffee, etc). There is no TV in the house (which we appreciated), but they have plenty of books, magazines, and articles about New Orleans.
The Bywater area is nice, either a long walk to the French Quarter or short cab/Lyft ride away. It is a bit far if you are traveling to other parts of the city like the Garden District or Uptown, but there are buses and Lyfts that will get you there. Per Chris' recommendation, we ate at Bacchanal (super close to the house!) and it was definitely worth it! We went on a Sunday afternoon and there was no wait but started getting crowded soon after.
Thanks Jane and Chris! We can't wait to come back to New Orleans!
