The Climbing Vine is a short bus ride from the French Quarter and a short drive to City Park. The studio is much more spacious than what was apparent in the photos. Pierce greeted us upon pre-arranged arrival. He offered great tour and restaurant tips and there were seasonal goodies awaiting us, including a small vase of fresh flowers and wine! There is ample off street parking. The neighborhood is quiet and the studio is all yours during your stay. Pierce helped make our first visit to New Orleans memorable.
