About this property

Bright by the Bayou (Ideal Location in NOLA!!!), Porch | Fenced Yard | Pets Allowed | Dog Park

Conveniently located in gorgeous Bayou St. John, 1.5 miles from the French Quarter, this 3BR / 2BA shotgun house is across the street from a soccer field & park and steps from famous Parkway Po’Boys. Walk or bike a mile along the bayou to City Park or on the Laffite Greenway to the French Quarter. Walking distance to Jazz Fest!
Guests will arrive and have access to coffee, sugar and creamer. There are two main bedrooms and a small independent third bedroom with a full bed. Two full bathrooms with shower/baths. The house has original wood floors and plenty of charm. You can watch (or join) people playing bocci ball, softball, and soccer in the park across the street. Guests will also have access to the grassy backyard equipped with a picnic table and string lights. Porch and yard are shared with the owners. As the owner and his family live on the other side, please be keep the noise down after 10pm. No parties please :)
There is keyless entry with a code, so check in is super easy. I will be able to help with suggestions and any issues that should arise. I live on the other side of the double house but I'm usually traveling or out and about. When around, I am always happy to share a drink and/or conversation on the front porch or backyard.
It is four blocks from the Canal street Streetcar line/Endymion Mardi Gras Parade (the biggest one). Getting to the French Quarter on the streetcar, uber, or bike takes less than 10 minutes. Mid City and Bayou Saint John are so full of fun things to do, you may never want to leave! There are plenty of bars, cafes, and restaurants within walking distance of the house. But if you do want to explore, we are in the center of the city -- between City Park, the French Quarter and Uptown. It's easy to get anywhere from here! Whether you're in town for tourist attractions or festivals, or if you're out to explore the whole city, from the heart of Mid-City you can be there in no time at all.
The biggest Mardi Gras parade is less than a half mile away, so the neighborhood will be jumping along with Carnival. The Canal Street streetcar is 4 blocks away. It will take you to the Mississippi River, the French Quarter and the Convention Center. The amazing City Park is a 10 minute walk along the beautiful Bayou Saint John. At City Park you've got the sculpture garden, botanical gardens, and Museum of Art.

Classic, Modernized Mid City Shotgun House

If you are looking to stay in a residential neighborhood of New Orleans and experience every day life away from the tourists, this is the place to be. Located just steps away from St. John Bayou, the Lafitte Greenway, the Canal St. Streetcar, and the famous Parkway Bakery, it is a great place to land. This would also be a great place to stay for Jazz Fest, about a mile away. The host was extremely communicative and helpful throughout the booking process and during our stay. The house was very clean, bright, and comfortable. Especially the beds! Note about bedrooms. Because it is a shotgun style house, there is one bedroom that you have to walk through to get to the back bedroom. The back bedroom has its own bathroom, so that is a plus. We would book again.

Wonderful house in a good location and excellent communication throughout

We really loved our stay in Ben's house whilst in New Orleans. It was the last stop on a 2 week road trip so we were ready and grateful for all the home comforts available to us.The master bed was particularly comfortable! The house was clean and had everything you could need to be at home away from home.Ben was an excellent host and communicated quickly and effectively throughout even allowing us to drop off some food and bags before our official check in so it wasn't wasted and we could explore the city.The area has some nice restaurants and bars etc nearby too and we were told by the locals we had picked the area well.My only VERY TINY negative about the location is that, as British tourists, we are used to walking everywhere and we don't tend to drive out to bars if we intend on drinking and the Uber's into the city were pretty expensive considering it was an 8 minute journey. The walk into the city is fine though and we did that one way each day.That isn't a relfection of Ben or the property but something to be mindful of if you intend on relying on Uber's.i also left behind osmething reather sentimental and Ben and his team were very quick to find it and post it back to me. Would highly reccommend
