FRENCHMEN / 2- STORY CHARTRES ESTATE / PRIME LOCATION

Everything was great!

This historic entire home (not a shotgun) is in a great location being near the corner of Frenchmen and Chartres. It has street parking in front when available and a paid parking lot close by. We loved this historic home and our stay. It had comfortable furnishings and modern conveniences. Loved the antique furniture and chandeliers. The music noise was only loud our first night with a large band setting up on the corner but the house is well built and dampens it. There's a little grocery store on Frenchmen nearby, too. There were plenty of homeless sleeping on the street which was sad (usual for NOLA). The house has a nice size backyard with fruit (lemons?) on a tree. That backyard would be so nice if it was cleaned up some and made in to a nice courtyard. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again!

Excellent location, great host

Kent and Jose were great— welcoming and responsive. The big old house is roomy, well supplied, and charming. And it is literally steps away from some of the best places to hear live music in New Orleans.

We book this house because we wanted to be as close to the parade route as possible. It didn't disappoint. It was a great location with everything you could need as far as entertainment and food right at your doorstep. That being said, if you are a light sleeper you will need earplugs. Don't stay here if you are expecting a quiet evening. We read the reviews and went into it expecting to hear the bands and crowds in the street so we were fine with it. It is close enough to the heart of the French Quarter to walk, even for six older ladies. Even though we went in the coldest weekend of the year it was a great trip.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay and cannot recommend this place enough. From the very beginning, communication with Kent was easy, friendly, and reassuring. Check-in instructions were clear, and it was comforting to know both Kent and Jose were local and just minutes away if we needed anything.The house itself was perfect for our group of seven—spacious, comfortable, and well laid out so everyone had room to spread out. One of the biggest perks was the dedicated parking space, which made coming and going incredibly easy. Even with multiple cars, we never had issues finding parking, which is a huge win in this area.The location is unbeatable if you want to experience New Orleans at its most vibrant. Being right in the heart of the Frenchmen Street music scene was a highlight for us—we loved hearing live music right across the street and soaking in the energy. As other reviews mention, this may not be ideal if you’re very sensitive to noise, but for us it was part of the charm, and we all slept just fine.During our stay, the downstairs heater stopped working, but this is where the hosting truly stood out. One quick call to Jose, and he coordinated repairs while we were out sightseeing. Everything was fixed by the time we returned, and he communicated with us throughout—problem solved seamlessly and professionally.Overall, the home was comfortable, well-equipped, and made us feel safe and at home the entire time. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Best house in New Orleans, best host in the world. Spacious, clean and close to the best neighborhood in the city. Will definitely stay again

Excellent location and well stocked house. It is in a very busy area of NOLA, loud but manageable.

Clean and comfortable, good location.

Loved the New Orleans feel and the location was ideal.

This was a wonderful property, and within walking distance to most of the things we wanted to go to. I loved that it had its own parking space as well (although at one point, someone did come along and take it, but Jose called the tow company right away). It was air conditioned to the perfect temperature and accommodated all 6 of us adults quite well! Beds were comfy, too. It was very noisy at night, but we knew that going into it, so were prepared for that. We loved people watching from the front porch and balcony - very entertaining! I highly recommend this stay for your trip to New Orleans!

Communication with our host was excellent! One of my guest arrived early and was allowed access to the house. Very helpful. Fun, classic decor, great bathrooms and bedrooms. The first floor full bath is located in between the kitchen and first floor bedroom to be clear. Very comfortable layout for big groups. The bathroom upstairs was great! Huge shower! And the half bath downstairs was a plus!! We loved hanging around the kitchen table chatting, and laughing!We had a couple minor maintenance issues upon arrival but they were taken care of in a timely fashion. Not a problem. Great hosts.Lively, location close to lots of restaurants and walkable to all!!! It wasn’t without the normal homeless people that all large cities have. In particular just across the street in front of the night club, a small group of people….a bit uncomfortable with a few fights and drug use. By no means a deal breaker nor the fault of anyone. They were asked to move by the night club management. As in other reviews, it is loud at night but didn’t bother us. Bring earplugs or white nose machines and you’ll be fine!Overall a great home, great location and classic decor. Wonderful hosts. I recommend this property!! We had a blast.

Had a great time at this property. We did not spend that much time inside due to it being a great location in the heart of the French Quarter. We were able to hang out late and easily walk back when needed. The host was very welcoming and invested in our stay. Would highly recommend if you plan on partying on Bourbon St. or the French Quarter!

Bring earplugs - gets loud at night

The location of the property was great. Walkable to everything we wanted to do and see. The neighborhood was very fun and active at night!

A former history teacher told us Frenchmen Street is like if Bourbon Street grew up and got a job. This 1800's era home, with great character, a cool balcony, and renovated bathrooms, is right in the heart of the Frenchmen scene. You can stumble out one block in either direction and hit a half dozen legit jazz clubs with quality musicians. Great food is plentiful and we really enjoyed the nightly art market. The home is also walkable to the water, museums, and more touristy stops if you want. If you crave a quiet getaway, this ISN'T it. As advertised, it's loud and vibrant at night. (3am plus on weekends) Just what we were looking for.

Property was perfect and as described, very close to many music scenes.

We are five older friends who stayed for four nights and had a wonderful time. The home was spacious, clean and comfortable. We all loved the French Quarter, and Frenchman St. Just be aware that this is not a place for children. This is a party area. There was very loud music from a street band and a dance club across the street until late at night. That being said, there were a couple of venues (especially Bamboulas - a block away) that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Had a group of guys from all over the USA get together to celebrate a friend’s 50th birthday and this place was absolutely perfect. If you need a quiet place look elsewhere as there is a party right outside the door every night. Kent the owner was super responsive and the house was perfect - clean, comfortable, and spacious. Looking forward to going back and making more memories.

We had a great time in New Orleans and the location was great for walking. A little loud but that was expected when staying by all of the action. Kent was a great host.

The location was great for all we wanted to see. Took an uber to a few locations, but mostly walked to sites (including the WWII museum). The house was comfortable. The street and club music is exciting and very loud. Wear decent earplugs if you want to sleep before 3 am! Had a great time!

House was ideal for our group and right by all the music we were looking for

Location is in Jazz corner of French Quarter. Poppin!

We had a great stay, everything was as pictured, check in was seamless with good communication from the owner. The house was set up with plenty of supplies, we were very comfortable. While we personally enjoyed the energy and atmosphere of Frenchmen St., light sleepers should note that due to the proximity of local night life this is not a quiet place.

We stayed at this property while spending 2 days ahead of our cruise out of New Orleans. The house is in an excellent location, easily walkable to the French Quarter and ideally located to some awesome local bars and restaurants. We really enjoyed the extra space for relaxing while not out exploring the city vs being cramped in a hotel room. Kent is an excellent host and kept in touch to make sure everything was going well and to check if we needed anything. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

Great location. Plenty to do on Frenchman Street and having Dat Dog at your doorstep is a plus!

This was our 3rd trip to NOLA, and it was our favorite location and the perfect home for our stay in this location and in this price range. We were literally steps away from all the best jazz clubs on Frenchman's street. Yes, it is a loud neighborhood, but we expected that, and who stays on Frenchman to go to bed early? This location is also a quick and easy walk to Bourbon Street and Jackson Square. We appreciated the comfortable bedrooms, full kitchen and washer and dryer. The layout of the parlor and living room created tons of space for all 6 adults in our family to hang out together. Kent was a great host, immediately attending to any issues and checking on us during our visit.

We took our grown children and their partners to stay in this house over the long Thanksgiving weekend. It was the perfect place for our California contingent to meet up with the our daughter and BF coming from NYC. The house was roomy and very well equipped, and the location (though possibly loud for some) was ideal for us to enjoy lots of live music as a family, or as separate couples. We could also easily walk to the French Quarter and the Treme to shop, eat and sightsee. Though the house is not in perfect condition, it is very comfortable and clean, and the owner was very responsive to our questions. We had a blast and everyone in our group agreed we'd be happy to stay there again.

You can't get anymore in the thick of things than to stay here. Just a step outside and you are walking distance to most everything! Comfy beds, a very attentive host and plenty of space to just relax make it such a great spot. The balcony is a bonus, where you get to people-watch to your heart's content. I'd recommend to anyone wanting a real NOLA experience.

This was a great place to stay to be right in the mix with music. It was loud until 3 am on weekend nights but we expected that. Home was comfortable and secure

We loved the house and location, an easy walk to many prime spots such as the French Market, French Quarter, Bourbon Street, Jackson Square, and more. Kent was a superb host. There was a live brass band playing across the street till about midnight and then a nightclub directly across the street had an earth-shaking bass till 2, so just be aware. Overall it is a great place to stay.

The house was perfect for our group. It was clean and is walking distance to the French Quarter and French Market. Communication with Kent was great and he was very nice. The only downside is that it is very close to clubs on Frenchman Street and the music from the clubs is very loud until the clubs close.
