Historic Ursulines Gem near FQ | Historic Getaways

Summary:

Historic charm radiates from this lovingly restored 1856 Creole Cottage. Located on a gorgeous block in the Tremé neighborhood just two-blocks from tree-lined Esplanade Avenue. Featuring antique furniture, beautiful, New Orleans-inspired paintings done by local artists, and original hardwood floors, this cozy cottage has it all. Sip a cocktail on the back patio surrounded by bamboo before you hit the French Quarter, just a five minute-walk away. Welcome!



The Space:

Please note that the pool is not heated and is only available for use up in warm months, typically April-October. We take the pool down during the cooler months. Also, the pool is shared with other neighboring units.



Like most NOLA houses, this is a walk-through (no hallways) but the front and side doors allow separate access to bedrooms if need be.



Short Term Rental is a highly debated subject in New Orleans. Please help us show the community that respectful responsible tourism can bring meaningful cultural exchange and be an overall positive experience for your group and our city.



Our small management company supports 25 workers and their families, all of whom are paid a living wage, and all of us live, work, and play in New Orleans. Our maintenance crew, cleaning crew, booking staff and customer service staff work hard to ensure you have the best stay possible. The proceeds from your stay help us feed our families and invest in the renovation and restoration or historic homes in the area. Our units are 100% owned by locals, not big companies, hotels, or out-of-town investors. All of the homes we restore were either sold vacant, uninhabitable, legally blighted or condemned. We have saved many houses from demolition and we have never evicted long term residents from the houses that we have available for rent.



Beautiful, fun, & funky 200-year-old historic home in the heart of downtown. Soaring ceilings, gorgeous architecture. 4 blocks to the French Quarter, half a mile to frenchmen and the river, super close to fun bars, food, coffee, and public transport.



Please be courteous to my neighbors and respectful of my home. Keep the noise inside the house and the partying in the French Quarter. The quality of life of my neighbors come first above all other things. If you are looking to rage and rockstar out - please look elsewhere. If you are being out of line, myself or my property manager will come discuss your conduct with you and we reserve the right to evict your group if y'all are being out of line. Be a good ambassador of the place you are from and for short term rentals. Do not put my business license in jeopardy and everything will work out great for us both.



The homeowner and assistant will be available if you need us. We will always be around and happy to hang, suggest a destination, or answer any questions. We are thirtysomething, easygoing, and fun yet responsible people. Have as little interaction with us as you like, or hit us up for whatever. We're happy to oblige.

Plus, it's right across the street from the Quarter, where all great touristy destinations lie!
