To say I was excited to stay in the Parker Bowman mansion would certainly be an understatement, and I was blown away!!! When I arrived I had already been in New Orleans for several days so this was a welcome oasis after some super high energy festival days and nights. The location is wonderful, private and lush, but still very easy to get around and close to the streetcar.
I was greeted at the gate by Adrienne and Bill's 2 wonderful dogs, and then made the entrance to my personal version of Heaven On Earth! Magical Curiosities everywhere you look, fantastic Victorian/Gothic and Fantasy furniture, Phenomenal art, books and a beautiful garden pool! I fell in love immediately! My room was comfortable, great bed, loved the 3rd floor views and private balcony and the bathroom was just st perfect for my needs!
About the hosts--Adrienne and Bill are 2 of the coolest and original people I've ever met. I was able to spend some high quality time with them and talking to them about all kinds of fascinating subjects was a highlight of my trip. I truly consider both Adrienne and Bill friends and I will be seeing them again very soon! I can't recommend a stay here more highly if you're a real adventurer, spiritualist, solace seeker or just fun loving New Orleans-er! I am forever grateful for this experience!
