What an awesome place to stay!
I could write a mini-essay about our stay in New Orleans, but suffice to say, booking with Lore and her family helped turn a good trip into a fantastic one!
The house itself was beautiful; it has a ton of older charm along with some quirks, but the fabulous updates throughout the whole home allowed everyone to enjoy a bit of luxe as well as feel right at home all while still capturing some of the historic charm of the Tremé neighborhood. They had a beautiful updated kitchen fully stocked with a pack of beer on arrival, some bloody fixings, coffee, sugar and utensils to name a few. The shared pool area/back yard was definitely a highlight: The pool was gorgeous with cool lights, and included a stereo, plenty of seating, TV, and separate full bathroom (shower before getting into the pool) as well as plenty of towels. This oasis blew away even our highest expectations of what we thought we would be getting in such a historic part of New Orleans.
Additionally transportation was easy and cheap (five minute uber ride to anywhere, readily available at anytime of day/night).
​What really made this place special was Lore and her family who happen to live on the other side of the house. Staying next to the owner with such a big group in tow honestly was our only reservation in booking the place initally, but it actually ended up being a huge positive in staying there! There were house rules that just asked all to please have some common courtesy for the home/pool and neighbors. We were down here for my boyfriends 30th birthday party, which took part in what New Orleans had to offer, and at no point during our ins and outs including the wee hours of the AM did we ever hear about it or find ourselves upsetting our neighbors. Lore and her family were also very considerate, they never came over unannounced, but by the end of the trip we were inviting them over for drinks and one son even joined us for a concert at Tipitina’s!
They are a wonderful group of friendly, artistic, worldly people, they accommodated our group and welcomed us with open arms and without concern for people looking to have a great time in the Big Easy. We will definitely go back to this property again and hope Lore and her lovely family are in town when we do!
We thank them for being such a great part of making his 30th birthday one to remember!-Love you guys!
