Adrienne and Bill’s place is a friendly oasis from the hustle of the French Quarter. Spending a few days at their home in the Garden District should be a mandatory stop while in New Orleans. Their wonderful home is packed with art and books and is a wonder of it’s own. We stayed in the Library room and it was perfect for us. With its own private balcony, it provides beautiful refuge to enjoy coffee in the morning or a beer in the evening. The home’s proximity to the shopping, bars and restaurants of Magazine street kept us plugged into the city without dealing with the overwhelming crowds of the quarter. Did I mention how incredible it was to jump in the garden pool as a respite from the heat? Yeah! This place is great.
