The "Magical Cottage" helped contribute to a wonderful weekend stay in New Orleans. Julia epitomizes hospitality and was very responsive to my questions before the visit. The cottage is located on a beautiful street filled with quaint homes. I felt safe in the neighborhood day and night. Free street parking was easily available -- directly in front of the house, or no more than a couple houses away. Incredible breakfast spots, coffee shops, bookstores, boutiques, and a grocery store are less than two blocks away. The cottage is appointed well and had all the necessities. The back garden is a beautiful oasis and perfect for enjoying tranquil moments.
