LOVE this place!

We had such a wonderful time staying at the Magic Cottage! It's in
a really fun part of Uptown New Orleans. We could walk to great
restaurants and all kinds of eclectic shops on nearby Magazine St. Thereis even a live music club nearby- Dos Jefes. And a killer breakfast cafe practically next door called "Toast," which had possibly the best biscuits I have ever had in my life, plus something yummy called "aebleskivers"- Dutch pancake balls. Sooo delicious! Order some. Really.
So that’s the area – a few miles from the French Quarter, which
for us is more a plus than a minus. Getting down there to Bourbon Street, etc is easy via taxi or streetcar, but this area feels less touristy, more like the “real” New Orleans.

The house itself was very comfortable, clean, and nicely furnished.
It's an adorable "shotgun style" traditional New Orleans house. A
peaceful spot with a great vibe- and a sweet front porch to sit on under palm trees. For anyone who'd prefer to not deal with all the craziness and noise of downtown and the French Quarter this place is perfect. And our hostess, Julia- was the best! She really went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable. And she had great tips for wonderful, new restaurants and the most fun places for live music. She really knows New Orleans! :)
Can't recommend this place highly enough!
