🎨Artist’s Retreat in the heart of Magazine St - Walk to restaurants, bars, shops

Relax & Play in the perfect compliment of history and modern comfort.

Enjoy your morning coffee on the balcony of a century-old house with breakfast pastries from the best bakery in New Orleans, La Boulangerie, just two doors down.

In the afternoon, stroll down bustling Magazine street and explore world renown restaurants, bars, art galleries, boutiques and antique shops, just steps away from your front door. Or hop on the bus at the stop next door for a ride straight down to the French Quarter.

In the evening, toast champagne under a grand vintage crystal chandelier and greet passerby from our balcony overlooking the famous Magazine Street.

Over a century old, our house still retains her original front door and pieces of her original hard-wood floors.

Watch the game on your massive 65" smart TV with YouTube TV subscription.

Work with ease on free 300mps high-speed WiFi.

Relax with a spacious living room, full-size kitchen, crisp linens over a comfortable Queen bed, and full bath with ultra soft towels. We are in a safe & fun area with lots of shops and restaurants. Get downtown on a super easy direct bus route that picks up in front of the house or walk just a few blocks to catch the street car.

LIMITED PARKING: Limited parking may be available upon request. Please inquire when booking if you would like to reserve our one-car driveway.

Our kitchen is stocked with a Keurig K-Supreme Plus, blender, toaster oven, microwave, full-size fridge, single electric cooktop, cooking utensils, a selection of Starbucks coffee, and creamer.

Our active guests; will find a yoga mat, yoga blocks, and basketball in the closet. The outdoor court is just a few doors down. A Pure Barre studio is just a block away.

Your family-friendly suite includes 4 camping chairs to take with you to events/festivals, board games, and a discovery bin to keep the kids entertained.

Upon check-out, allow us to take care of everything for you. We will handle the dishes, trash, linens etc. Our only request is that enjoy your final morning with us.

Cheers!
Brandi and Steve

Mardi Gras House

A great place with an amazing location. New Orleans Flavor in their decor makes your visit to New Orleans authentic and fun. Across from a great dinner house Lupo and next door to Le Boloungerie where the coffee and baked goods are amazing.

Magical Magazine Retreat

As New Orleans junkies who happen to live out of state, we’ve seen a lot of Air B&Bs over the years. This one is a family favorite. Everything was perfect: from the funky uptown art vibe to the comfortable beds, and even down to the little touches - like the Lovesac, wide variety of coffee and actual quality toilet paper! The balcony overlooking Magazine was perfect for after dinner drinks and people watching and you can’t beat the proximity to the best bakery in town (La Boulangerie) and plenty of nightlife. We will be back again and again!

For those who want to avoid the insanity of downtown but still have a wide variety of dining and drinking options, I can't recommend Brandi's place more strongly. Old school but comfortable, convenient to the streetcar, with a balcony to boot.
