This house is EVERYTHING you want for a big group in New Orleans. It's in the Garden District, so you are surrounded by beautiful architecture and the Big Easy aesthetic permeates every place you walk. It's pretty simple to walk anywhere, and the FQ is close by bus or Lyft. But it's quieter than the French Quarter, which is nice.
It's a LARGE house with plenty of space, and the courtyard felt like a magical secret garden of wonders. The two cats are not just present, they are cool and friendly. There are turtles in the pond that we named. I love that there's a main house and two side houses, so you can split up your party if some people want to stay up later than others.
One of the upstairs rooms has a balcony that overlooks the front! It was perfect to relax on in the evening.
Would definitely stay here again. It felt very New Orleans, almost had a spooky vibe to it :)
