The Lemon House is in a great location in the Bywater. It's just a couple of blocks from the Mississippi River. We took the RTA bus #5 back and forth to the French Quarter, with the bus stop a block and a half away at Desire and Chartres. We took advantage of the $3 daily pass and definitely got our money's worth each day, between riding the bus and the trolley. The neighborhood is fun to explore with cute cafes, a great pizza place (Pizza Delicious) and a scrumptious bakery (Bywater Bakery.) We enjoyed walking to the Faubourg Marigny to Frenchman's Street, as well as to St. Roch Market (a great food hall.) Both are about a mile away.
Susan and Dink are delightful and extremely helpful with ideas for local explorations. The house is very comfortable and the garden is peaceful. It was always great to get back to the tranquil Bywater neighborhood after exploring the lively French Quarter or the CBD and Warehouse Districts. Crescent Park is just a couple of blocks away and a great place to take a run or bike ride along the river. We would definitely return to the Lemon House.
