About this property

This 100-year-old historic shotgun home is perfectly located in the beautiful Lower Garden District of New Orleans. The famous New Orleans streetcar is just one block away. The house is within walking distance of many great restaurants and close to several famous attractions such as the National World War II Museum, the Superdome, the Smoothie King Center, the Convention Center, the French Quarter, and much more.

The historic shotgun layout is perfect for a stay in New Orleans, and the location could not be better. You will be staying on the right side of a double shotgun home with 11-foot ceilings. The front room contains a smart TV and couch that can sleep one. The spacious bedroom has a queen-sized bed that can sleep two. The back room has a dining table, a desk, and a futon that can sleep one. The bathroom and kitchen are full of essentials. Outside in the back is a private patio with a table and chairs. The entire place has wifi.

The Lower Garden District was built in the mid-19th century and is one of the most scenic and wealthy areas of all New Orleans. Grand, historic mansions line the streets, making it a scenic neighborhood away from the bustle of the French Quarter and perfect for strolling.

Find yourself within walking distance to upscale dining, craft cocktails and rare antiques. However, there is also casual dining, local bars, and boutiques all in the area as well.

Nearby attractions include the World War II Museum, Audubon Park & Zoo, Lafayette Cemetery, Commander's Palace, and the shops of Magazine Street. Just a few minutes away from the Lower Garden District and a short car ride away is the famed French Quarter.

Opt for taking the charming streetcar down St. Charles Avenue and enjoy all the sites in between.

Many attractions can be enjoyed by foot, but for other means of transportation there are nearby blue bike share hubs.

Taxis and ride shares such as Uber and Lyft operate heavily in the area.

The St. Charles streetcar line is just one block away and can transport you up to the French Quarter or across to Riverbend.

For those traveling by car, street parking outside the home is readily available.

Lower Garden District

Good location but likely you need more than average knowledge of New Orleans (i.e. transportation options) to take full advantage. Be sure to get a Jazzy Pass for streetcars and buses.

At home in the Lower Garden District

Truly enjoyed the authenticity of this historic property and its location. Loved the roominess of the house. We could walk everywhere or take the St. Charles streetcar to where we wanted to be. A quiet neighborhood yet so convenient to everything.

Disappointing Stay

We had no heat first couple days. Property Manager told us there was heat but there were no instructions on how to get the heat. We found a space heater, which wasn't working at its best & can't leave them on all nite. Finally manager explained the heat comes thru the a.c. with the remote. BUT he lied about the heat coming from the a.c. by the futon, it did not. We both got very sick & are still trying to recover. Floors were soooo dirty. We deserve at least a partial refund. He wasn't easy to get hold of. Could not leave a msg on his phone. It would say "this phone has no voice mail box". We would just have to wait until he decided to call us back. Then I started texting him, which was easier. I wanted to talk to him for him to hear that I had laryngitis, sore throat, ear ache. Heat should have been turned on before we got there on Tuesday as the temperature was in the 50's. Wednesday, came home from swamp tour to another day of cold house. He finally called that nite & explained a little better about the heat but I feel I had to drag the words out of him. No heat in room with futon where my friend slept.We missed out on the Plantation Tour because we were sick. We're out each $64.00 for that tour.

Great location!

We had a wonderful stay at Bailey’s property. The listing and pictures are accurate - but the pictures don’t quite show how cute this shotgun house is! Great location that is convenient to downtown New Orleans and other areas and made exploring the city so easy. Bailey was extremely communicative and very helpful with any questions we had. We had plenty of towels and blankets, which was so nice to have. (I’ve stayed at other properties that had one towel per person.) The only minor issue we had was a TV across the street that was extremely bright and would illuminate the bedroom through the transom window above the front door until the middle of the night. That said, our stay was absolutely great and I would absolutely recommend Bailey’s property to anyone visiting New Orleans - and I look forward to rebooking this property when I visit New Orleans again.
