If you’re on the hunt for a home with a front porch, then Mid City New Orleans should definitely be on your short list. While the architecture is varied, the majority of homes in this neighborhood have that most quintessential of southern perks: a porch. If you like the outdoors, then this is the perfect space for you. But it’s not all about porch sitting (although that’s pretty darned appealing), it’s the proximity to everything else. There’s City Park and the New Orleans Museum of Art on one end. There’s the medical corridor on the other. And snuggled up in the middle, you’ll find some of our favorite places to grab a bite – Clesi’s for seafood, Parkway for poboys, Katie’s for brunch, and Bayou Beer Garden for any time you need a cold one. The Lafitte Greenway starts (or ends, depending on your perspective) in Mid City and stretches for miles. Ride your bike, walk your dog, or take an evening run in a big expanse of green space. You’ll have choices in grocery stores, convenience and drug stores, and too many other restaurants to mention. Getting to downtown or Metairie or even the Westbank is a breeze, because it doesn't get more centrally located than this!

Charming Home

The home was charming, clean, and exactly as shown in the photos. As a family of five adults, having two full bathrooms and a washer/dryer was great! We had our own vehicle. Parking was available in front of the home and safe. The location was not too far from many of the main New Orleans spots.Ben was a great host and checked in on us throughout our stay! We would book this home again if available on our next trip to NOLA!

Easy walk to the park, dining and groceries. Quite, safe neighborhood.

We walked on the Lafitte Freeway in both directions to go out for meals, and for groceries. It's also an easy walk to City Park.

About the host

Hosted by Ben

Host profile image
I moved to New Orleans since 2012 and I love this city! I am excited to share its weirdness and beauty with guests from all over the world.

I am a public interest immigration lawyer by day and in my free time I love traveling and getting to know other places and cultures, riding bikes, seeing live music, coaching Ultimate Frisbee, and doing improv comedy. Born and raised in Chicago.

Why they chose this property

I absolutely love the Bayou St. John neighborhood—it’s stunning, with plenty of parks and green spaces that make it feel so inviting. The bayou itself is peaceful and picturesque, perfect for outdoor activities like kayaking, walking, and biking along its lush banks. Plus, the Lafitte Greenway is an amazing bike and walking path that connects you to even more of the city. The best part? Its central location means you’re just a short trip away from must-see spots like the French Quarter, Garden District, and City Park. And don’t forget the local flavor—grab a legendary po-boy from Parkway Bakery, hit up some nearby breweries, and soak in the live music floating through the streets. It’s the perfect mix of relaxation, culture, and New Orleans charm.

What makes this property unique

My property stands out because of its fantastic outdoor spaces, beautifully renovated interior, and, above all, our dedication to making sure every guest feels truly at home. We’re committed to going the extra mile to ensure our guests have everything they need for a comfortable and memorable stay. Whether it's the cozy, well-designed spaces or our personal touch in hospitality, we make sure every detail counts.
