Adrienne made me feel so welcome. She greeted me with open arms, made coffee in the morning delicious blue berry ice tea, and even helped me with my summer Mardi gras costume. The mansion was breath taking and much grander than in the pictures. It had all of the comforts of home and felt like a true historic New Orleans home. The neighborhood was wonderful, any street you walked down had stunning architecture. I also really enjoyed being able to use the private swimming pool to cool off during the day. I look forward to returning. Adrienne and her husband are great hosts and their home is nothing short of a trip into history.
