Great for bride getting ready!

I’m a wedding planner writing on behalf of the bride and family members who stayed in the property.Bride Feedback:“It was great for me for the morning of getting ready the morning of the wedding!”Family/Guest feedback:“It was nice! The only issue was the water in the bath upstairs did not drain properly and one room’s AC didn’t work very well.”From the Planner perspective, the host was extremely accommodating and easy to work with. The house has beautiful spots for photos and space to have a lot of people stay without feeling cramped. I would definitely place clients here again!

New Orleans Weekend

This was an older house with lots of atmosphere. It was clean and worked well for our large group. We felt safe in the neighborhood and walked to and from the ferry morning and night. We enjoyed the way the house was decorated and cared for. It had a nice kitchen. Even in the heat the house was cool and comfortable. We really enjoyed our trip!

Bachelorette trip

The house was the perfect size. Tons of space and we all got our own bedrooms. Quiet neighborhood with cute coffee shops within walking distance. The only downside is the location. While it is only roughly 15 minutes to downtown the cost of Ubers may make you rethink the location. If you have multiple people on the trip, I definitely would recommend. However, if you plan on spending most of your time downtown, I would reconsider.

Not as nice as it is shown in pictures

Neighborhood is not good plus all the doors in the house did not latch properly, bathroom doors were not latching, ac units was not working properly, refrigerator door compartments was missing. Staircase light was not working, main entrance door handle broken and not latching, linens had some stain on them, and many other little things. Also the backyard is shared with the neighbors and it was not disclosed. But for most part House just Didn’t feel safe overall.

The home is charming and adds to the flavor of a New Orleans visit. We felt very safe in this lovely home and appreciated the convenient location, a short walk to the ferry and a quick 2 ride to the French Quarter. There were restaurants and shops in the neighborhood as well. It was perfect and Deidra was a great host. We would choose this home again.

Deidra. Our trip was good. A few things I think you need to address. The pocketed door are not working well some not at all. My niece had yo text her husband to get the door open to the bathroom. The doors in general need attention. Lovely home and perfect for our family to stay for the wedding. Thank you.

First Trip to New Orleans

We had a great experience at this beautiful historic home. There was plenty of space for our group of nine, which was two families that consisted of teens and adults. The home is located in a cute neighborhood and we were able to explore a couple of local restaurants with great food and met some nice people. The ferry was a short walk away, and we were able to get to everywhere we wanted to go by using the jazzy pass which included the ferry, buses and streetcars.This was a great home and we loved it!

Beautiful and well appointed home

The house is lovely and very comfortable for a family gathering. We were in town visiting my elderly mother who lives in the assisted living facility at the Point, so the ramp at the back entrance enabled us to bring her over to visit with us. The kitchen is small but had everything we needed. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the host responded very quickly when I messaged her. Would not hesitate to rent here again!

50th birthday

I celebrated my 50th birthday with 10 of my closest friends and we had an amazing time. This house was huge and had plenty of room and space for all of us. Algiers Point is an awesome town and I would 100 stay here again. Easy walk to the ferry and super easy to Uber. The only downfall was the internet didn’t work and they never got it to work for us. Other than that it was perfect.

NOLA Getaway

Overall, it was a pretty clean house! Lots of bedrooms which was nice to have. Seemed to be in a safe neighborhood but driving in to this neighborhood was a little sketchy. The pictures definitely depict a more bright and airy atmosphere than what was given. That was the only real downside for me. The host was responsive and the check in process was a breeze.

Nola stay

House was nice, just like in the photos. It is an old house. We liked it. If you are looking for a more modern stay might not be for you. Theres technically 3 rooms downstairs & 2 bathrooms but to go to the backyard you go through the rooms. If you need couples privacy might not be it. But we were all family so it didnt bother us. & 3 rooms upstairs with one bathroom. No complaints of the actual house other than the doors being hard to close. parking was a pain for us. Not at owners fault. You can park in front of the house (fit 2 cars) street parking and also 1 in the carport on side of house total of 3 cars. We got there late and there were cars in our spot so we parked somewhere else and neighbors complained saying we could not park in front of their house. And made us move. Other than that no issues. Ferry was close 10 min walk or 3 min drive(just pay to park at station). We enjoyed taking the ferry. Its also a 5min ride on the ferry to the other side.

Cousins Get Away

Our group had 4 couples from out of state and one couple locally that were able to enjoy this little gem!! First off the neighborhood is quiet and safe. A sleepy little location that draws you in. We truly enjoyed sitting out front and talking to locals that strolled by. There are local establishments around that are wonderful. There is a cute breakfast cafe down the road that we used each day for breakfast and we were lucky enough to enjoy Travalino’s pizza on its last night open (Such a shame- the pizza was delicious). The walk to the ferry short and sweet. If you are there any length of time get the jazzy pass so you can use ferry, street car and bus- unlimited times The house itself is nicely furnished and stocked from bedrooms, baths, and kitchen you had all the necessities you needed. The back yard patio was refreshing in the evenings. A few things to note: The front door doesn’t have a typical knob so for it to stay closed you need to deadbolt it. We found for our early mornings sitting on the stoop that putting a rag in the frame as you closed it kept it closed and let the cool air stay in. (This is very important for the summer months as it is hot out there) None of the bathrooms have air so they get quite toasty during your shower. The downstairs bathrooms were not as hot because their rooms/areas had some air close by, but the upstairs hall/landing is not air conditioned. Not a huge deal but worth mentioning as some might have an issue.

Cute house for bachelorette but was not what we had thought

First… the house was so cute and huge! We had 7 girls here for bachelorette party in May, and it was perfect for everyone. However.. there was a few things in the house that didn’t make us feel comfortable, especially being all girls. The doors hardly locked.. there was 3-4 locks on each door and only 1-2 of them worked. We got home one night & I asked the girls if they locked it because it looked open & cracked at the top. The back door someone could have easy just pushed & it would’ve broke open (basically warped pieces of wood) They need to replace all the doors in the house, because there is no safety in them. None of us felt safe and we did a house check when we got back at night. This house is adorable, and walking distance from the ferry- but it needs to be updated so it’s safer for everyone! Overall I give it 4/5 stars. Communication with Deidra was great.

It took use 5 Years to renovate and re-restore the home after the hurricane, even though we did not sustain flood we had wind damages. We chose to turn this home into a vacation home only because we love the historic feel of this home and wanted to share it with visitors of our great city. We love it!! We are very grateful that all of our guest love it too! Visit us and I know you will Love it too!!
Deidra and Chr Edwards- homeowners

Why they chose this property

We are only a ferry boat ride away to the French Quarter. Algiers' Point is home to many of our local musicians. On Wednesdays' there are free porch concerts just a short stroll away. In addition, Algiers Point has plenty of restaurants and bars to enjoy on your way to or from the French Quarter and entertainment district.

What makes this property unique

You don't need a car when staying in Algiers Point. We have love this location because of it proximity near the French Quarter and the ferry ride from Algiers Point to the French Quarter. The views are stunning. From our home, you can enjoy the sounds of the calliope (steam piano) coming from the Steamboat NATCHEZ.
