“Spring Break Stay” Had a blast staying at this house with my friends! It was close enough to bourbon street and the music festival Buku. We were able to drive around and Uber to different places! There was food and snacks waiting for us upon our arrival! I had a great time

“A great way to experience New Orleans!” The Love Shack lives up to its name as I fell in love with the property, the hospitality, and New Orleans. I've never rented a property online but the owner put me at ease by taking the time to talk to me over the phone. I had never been to NOLA and it was my birthday. The owner made my stay very special having birthday decorations up when I arrived! The owner also made sure I knew where to go and what to do during my stay. The property was very clean with all the amenities you would expect... When I come back to New Orleans I definitely plan to stay at the love shack again.

“Perfect Place for a Big Group” What an incredible place to stay! Marcelin's place was perfect for my group of 9 girls. It was clean, well-stocked with kitchenware, towels, and linens, air-conditioned, and super cute! The location was wonderful as well - quiet yet a quick uber ride to all that New Orleans has to offer! I will definitely stay here again! Thanks Marcelin!

“HOME AWAY FROM HOME!!!” The duplex was located just a few minutes from the French Quarter, maybe 5 minutes I would say. Mrs. Verna stopped by on the day we arrived with lunch from Melbas and introduced herself. She told us she was just a street over if we needed anything not to hesitate. The duplex was clean and felt just like a home away from home. The fridge was stocked with drinks and the counters with baskets of snacks. Mrs. Verna goes ABOVE AND BEYOND to welcome her guests and make them feel comfortable. She is a very sweet woman and it was a pleasure meeting her and staying at her property. This was our first trip to New Orleans and when we go back we will stay with Verna again if possible, also we ate at Melbas 3 times after Verna brought over that lunch in the 5 days we were there. If you plan to stay at Verna's... Melbas is a must and I suggest call in or order online that place is super busy and for good reason. Thanks Verna we appreciated your hospitality and extending your rental to us... we hope to stay there again in the future.

“Wonderful stay” We rented both levels of this quirky home. Our family was in town for a wedding and this house fit us all. Furniture and beds all comfortable and plenty of towels. Kitchen had enough dishes, cutlery, etc. to make a meal if desired. We spent as much time as possible on the front porch. Note it will take 10 to 15 minutes by cab ($18 to $20) to get to the French Quarter. Also if you are using cabs or Uber call at least 1 hour ahead. Shortly after our arrival, Felicity came and introduced herself and made sure we had everything we needed, A very nice touch.

“Perfection in Marigny!” The house is perfect. The pool is perfect. The tropical garden surrounding the pool is perfect. The little family of chickens, the sweet chihuahua, and cats is perfect (friendly and quiet). The towels and sheets are perfect. The owners are perfect - friendly and warm and welcoming and helpful. The homemade soaps and shampoos (by the owner) are perfect. I didn't get to sample, but Ann even left eggs from the chickens in the fridge! The location is perfect. I know I keep using the same word, but seriously there is no reason to look any further at vacation homes in New Orleans. Stop here, book the Black Diamond, and then count the days until you can chill out in that garden pool with a drink and the company of Ann, Tom, Dot, Lulu, and Buddha. You won't regret it.

“What a Great Place to Stay in The Garden District!” Okay, I could go on and on about how awesome it was to stay at this place! First off, it was soooooo clean! very nice to walk into a clean home. Second, There's a relaxing backyard area with a pool and hot tub (we didn't use hot tub being that it was hot outside) but both were clean and very well maintained. Also, the owner Dan couldn't have been more nice and more helpful! He was there for us when we needed him and he was a ghost while we did our own thing. Nice to have such an accommodating owner. Oh yeah, It's so close to Magazine street with all the restaurants and bars and shops. Very cool! you should for sure eat breakfast/lunch/brunch at http://www.atchafalayarestaurant.com Dan recommended it and it was incredible. We were there for a bachelor party and what a great place to come home to after a long day on the bayou looking for alligators! Anyway, A MUST STAY!!! Enjoy when you do!

“Excellent Home Away From Home” The pictures of this house really didn't do it justice. I wasn't expecting such a nice house - especially since it was Jazz Fest weekend and the rate was still affordable. We live a little over an hour away from New Orleans, but my sister was in town from Detroit for her 21st birthday so it wouldn't have been complete without a stay in the city. A short walk to the streetcar and an inexpensive cab ride from the French Quarter meant nobody had to be the designated driver. My sister and her boyfriend slept in the bedroom and we had the futon in the spacious living room. I would definitely recommend this lovely home for your next stay.

“Perfect stay” Laura and Eliot made us feel welcome and directed us to some great places. The room was large and comfortable. Laura was up with us every morning searching for directions to what we could fill our day with. Their home is beautiful and full of amazing photos both local and around the world. Everything from the City Park to the trolley stop is close and convenient. My friend and I are already planning our next trip back!

“Mixed Reviews” There is no off-street parking which made parking your own vehicle or a rental a little challenging as there was limited space adjoining the property. The access to the unit is immediately adjacent to a large gated parking lot for another business-it can feel like you're walking in an alleyway. I initially had a problem entering the unit so I called reservations who in turn gave me the propert manager's number. I called him and he answered right away and walked me through the steps. The unit was an extremely spacious townhome with nice eye appeal. The full sized kitchen was equipped with pots, pans, utensils, flatware and some dinnerware. There was a large center island that accommodates four people and a glass dining table for six, a spacious sectional and two additional seating chairs with a side table; there was a gas fireplace and half bath all on first floor which had extremely high ceilings. You ascend about 19 steps to second floor, which also had high ceilings, to bedrooms. There were two spacious bedrooms with a hall bath and a large master bedroom with a small bathroom. The rooms were furnished with budget-friendly dressers, night stands and table lamps. The unit was equipped with an ample supply of bed linens, towels, tissue and paper towels. After being there a little while Even though the unit appeared to be in relatively good shape, I noticed some imperfections in the quality of workmanship, but not a deal breaker. Aside from the parking, our biggest issue was overhead noise from the unit above. While we were in bed attempting to sleep the tenants above walked incessantly. Their floors, like ours, were probably a thin laminate and we heard every step, thump and thud of whatever dropped to the floor. Shortly after 6am on one morning, the lanscaper for a neighboring business was trimming and blowing. The unit is one block from a 24 hour Walgreens and a Houston's restaurant. It is one block from the Streetcar line. There are a wide variety of places to eat and drink within close proximity or nice walk if you choose. Overall, for our family, the unit was nice, and a better fit space-wise than a hotel room, but there were some drawbacks.

“Mrs.” Super clean, spacious. City but nice neighborhood, secure feeling, one block from tram stop. Ice maker in fridge does not work, they left a bag of ice though. Not a problem, just be prepared. Excellent experience.
