There are so many great things about this place! First, the location is perfect, in a very walkable area, close to St. Charles with the streetcar that can transport you to the Garden District or French Quarter, and within walking distance to Magazine St., Audubon Park, Tulane and Loyola. The homes in the area are beautiful, and you can spend more than a few mornings or evenings strolling around and letting time slip away!
Next, the carriage home itself is very comfy, a welcoming retreat with a large bedroom and bath on the 2nd level and a well thought-out living space including a half bath on the ground floor. It is a refreshing space, with full kitchen (with window overlooking pool and lemon trees) and comfortable sofa for lounging (or sleeping as it pulls out to a sofa bed). The home is sparkling clean, and fresh! The outdoor space with lovely pool was the perfect place to unwind, and enjoy time with family and friends. We spent an entire day of our long weekend in the pool!
Skye is a gracious host, who has truly thought of everything, including a sweet welcome basket with goodies and yummy New Orleans coffee. There are extra cozy blankets, towels, etc. to make you feel at home as well. We celebrated my daughter's 21st birthday here, and the carriage house was the perfect backdrop for creating memories of a lifetime. We will most certainly visit this wonderful home again!
