Charming house in great location
The house is lovely & location is great. I rated it only 4 stars due to location of 2 of the bedrooms which could only be accessed from outside the house (one through an upstairs bathroom door & another thru kitchen door). The book with house info was in an upstairs bedroom, so we did not initially see it. We wandered around trying to find the 2 missing bedrooms. Also there was only 1 key for the 2 rooms(?). But we loved the location of the house & especially the great patio out back. We had our morning coffee there each day & drink & dinner one evening.

Great location
I’ve never stayed in such an old house so I wasn’t expecting the toilets to be so sensitive and the water pressure to be pretty non existent. The shower water went off a few times while we were showering. But I’d recommend replacing the shower curtains. They weren’t that clean. The house was nice and the garden area was pretty. Loved having an off street parking spot. The house worked great for our friends and family!

Great House in Extremely Walkable Neighborhood
We stayed here on a trip for three adult siblings to visit NOLA with their 70+ year old mother to celebrate her birthday. The house is set up great for this type of group - all of the bedrooms have their own attached full bathroom, and even the living room has a full bathroom - which is a quirk that is obviously based on the fact that this property used to be a bed and breakfast (the rooms still have nameplates on the doors). But that means this house has a nice and spacious kitchen and extra room for big gatherings. Plus, Magazine Street is supremely walkable, with tons of restaurants within half a mile of this house (and more a short drive away - either by your car or by uber/lyft). I will definitely try to stay here on future trips to the Big Easy.

Great garden district place
Pros: great location, spacious, very clean, super prompt maintenance, lots of NOLA character. Off street parking was great. Coffeemaker broke and a new one was provided immediately, as was a fan for one warmer bedroom. Cons: water pressure in several bathrooms was nonexistent…showers were not usable and we had to wash hair leaning over tub. A couple of us lived in the lower garden district and we did not find this typical of old houses. The AC in all bedrooms reset to 83 F in the middle of the night…we learned that this couldn’t be changed so every night we woke up so hot and had to adjust thermostat at least once. Overall, great place—it’d be perfect if the showers were working and the AC stayed on all night!

Great House and Location
Loved staying in this house and area. Made me feel like part of New Orleans. It was in walking distance of a coffee shop, great breakfast and brunch place called Surreys, trolley was a few blocks away. Also ate dinner at Lulus and it was wonderful. All bedrooms were spacious and had great beds. Just a heads up about front bedroom, if you like dark quiet places to sleep this room isn’t for you. We didn’t think about it but it was still great.

All Good Except The Plumbing
Great location, accurately described. Courtyard was a great place to hang out. Water pressure was terrible, toilets were iffy, showers were mostly claw-foot tubs with an icky curtain that you touched constantly. Also the front and back doors were laughably bad and hard to open/close completely. That said, the house was good for our group and I probably would return if I needed somewhere for a group to stay... we'd just know to take turns and only use the two modern showers.

Cool place in great location.
Love the history of the place. It is very charming and had no problems accommodating our group (2 couples and 2 singles) as we were in town for a conference. Location is close to many restaurants and within walking distance of the river, French Quarter etc. We did not have a car and never used a taxi. It is a 100 plus year old house and if you are expecting somethig shiny and new this is not the place for you. The beds are comfortable and check in and out was a breeze.

Could have been great, but it wasn't...
This was a bad experience from the moment we got to the house. We arrive at 5:15 pm. There were (full) trash bags, cleaning supplies and sheets all over the kitchen table and floor, the washer was running, and the house was 88° downstairs; 94° upstairs. When contacting the phone numbers provided (the owner) did respond immediately. There was "miscommunication " with the owner and housekeeping. Housekeeping said she was told no one would be checking in until Thursday (we checked in on Sunday) Housekeeping came back to the house and had everything "almost " complete (we told her we would finish the laundry) at 9 p.m. We went to bed with the house still at 82°. It was not stated anywhere that the owner controls the a/c, but she does. When we finally got the house cooled below 80°, the next morning all a/c panels were changed to 83°. This happened every day (5 days) She did call someone out to "fix" the a/c, but the a/c man told us, " There is nothing wrong with this a/c unit or panel. It is controlled by wifi and it is set accordingly; by the owner. I guess she just called me out here to make you feel better." We spent the rest of our first night trying to get the internet and cable to work. We followed the directions on our email. After all of that failed, we called Cox, as the directions stated. After being on hold,on the phone in general, for 25+ mins, we were told the wifi username and password were not what was stated on our email. Apparently, it had been changed long ago, just not updated on our instructions. Going to bed that night, I stepped on a nail sticking out of the floor at the entrance of the master bedroom. The nail punctured the heel of my foot, blood everywhere. I made the owner aware. She thanked me; however, around the nail there was a lining of where a piece of tape once was. This made me believe the nail was already brought to someone's attention, but nothing was done about it.After refunding me for "part" of the first day, I received my detailed bill today and she charged me $375 for an additional guest. Everything in this listing states 10 guest are allowed. I had 10. Period. I never once said how many guest were coming because that was never asked; however, THREE different places in this listing states TEN guest. It also states for "additional guest " there is a fee of $25. This does not add up to $375. The owner also entered the house when she knew were gone. This was more of a nightmare than a vacation.

Worst experience ever, poor management
House was advertised for 5 bedrooms and I was only able to use 3 due to A/C not working, manager sent a guy who was obviously drunk to get me a CD portable A/C unit but he just left it in the kitchen after trying to open bedroom Window. They only sent one unit when it was 2 bedrooms without A/C

A Perfectly Positioned & Fun Getaway!
My family of five had the pleasure of staying for a week at Carrie's Magazine location in the heart of the Lower Garden District and within easy walking distance of the entire Garden District. We had a blast! This location and property let us sink into the feel of New Orleans and the Garden District the moment we stepped across the threshold. From the backyard, easy, secure, off-street parking, the balcony looking over Magazine street, being a part of a block of row houses, high ceilings, and easy access to great restaurants and grocery stores, if you're looking for a New Orleans experience without the craziness/noise of the French Quarter this is your place. The location is not corporate in anyway, but has everything you would need in terms of the kitchen, bedrooms, appliances, etc. It has its quirks (two bedrooms accessible only through outside breezeways because its NOLA, some showers in bathtubs), but they are easy to figure out and we honestly enjoy being in a place that feels like a home and not a cookie cutter hotel. Communication with Carrie and her team was exceptional. When we return to NOLA we would absolutely stay here again!

It was a dream to rent this amazing house for the weekend from Carrie! She made check-in a seamless process and even let us arrive early in order to decorate around the house for our friend that is getting married :) We LOVED the location and all the cool details of the house, especially the turtles in the pond just outside. The balcony upstairs was terrific for people-watching, and everyone in our group had an amazing time. Thank you for a fun memorable weekend, Carrie!

Great stay, despite the intrusion of Barry
The house was perfect for the group! It's a beautiful old home. The set up took a hot second to get used to with 2 of the bedrooms being accessible from the outside, but it was perfect. The onsite parking ended up being great because there was one guest who did have a vehicle. There are some cool restaurants and shops within walking distance, a grocer that isn't very far at all, Delmonico's is a short walk away, the convention center, if your stay means going there, is a very short drive. I would definitely stay in the house again if a future visit requires the space. Oh, and the turtle was present!

Great location. Very easy to get to the freeway. 15 minute drive to the Quarter. House was large enough to accomodate my party of 11. Carrie's check in and check out process were oth smooth and easy. Couple of negatives, but they would be easy fixes. Floor in downstairs bathroom around tub was dirty. My son cleaned it up before walking in the bathroom. Two chairs in the kitchen were broken, one collapsed on my husband when he sat down and he isn't a big guy, the other the back was broken which we found when it scratched my niece. Lastly the upstairs outside bedroom TV didn't work. That said, the house was awesome. The gardens were a great way to sit and enjoy the evening. My grandkids loved feeding the turtles. It was nice having the laundry onsite. All-in-all a great trip. Thanks Carrie!
