Charming Stay

The cottage was a perfect stay for our three nights in NOLA. It is a perfect location and easy to walk anywhere in the French Quarter and right around the corner from Frenchman St and the jazz clubs. The sitting area outside is a wonderful place to enjoy your morning coffee or evening wine.

Great location

This was a really nice spot to stay. My partner and I decided not to rent a car and just walk and bike around. The cottage was in a great location and still actually quiet considering it's so close to the mayhem of Frenchman street. We had a great time :)

New Orleans getaway

The property was exactly as described. Andrea's communication was great. We loved the selection for our continental breakfast. The property is close to the French Quarter, but avoids the noise. It was perfect for the two of us and we would happily stay there again.The only surprise was the cold - we left the day before the snow!

Anniversary Get Away

We thoroughly enjoyed or stay in Sophie’s Cottage! It was perfect for the two of us. The patio area with the fountain is such nice addition. The entire property is so charming, but the privacy of the cottage was perfect for us. The location is just far enough away from the busy streets, but close enough to walk everywhere. The property manager is wonderful! She was in contact with us during our stay to let us know of events we might be interested in. She was also very helpful with any questions we had and responded promptly. If we visit New Orleans again, we will definitely book this property again.

Great long weekend stay!

This cottage was perfect for our weekend trip. Close enough to walk to French quarters, Frenchman street, and the trolley for when we wanted go venture a bit further. The room was very clean and cozy! Comfortable bed and luckily air conditioned! My only complaint was not having a working stove. After buying a few groceries we realized it didn’t work. But the microwave and toaster oven were handy enough. Would stay here again!

AMAZING, CONVINIENT, AND PRIVATE!

The location was unbelievable when it comes to convenience for eating, drinking or sightseeing. Even just the property itself is part of the sights to see!! Our guest house was super clean very adorable and nice and private! We met the owner once in our travels back and forth she was such a pleasure and offered us an umbrella which we literally used about 4 minutes later (looking out for us out of towners) IF you're lucky enough to stay here for a few days you wont regret a thing we could walk to the night life in about 5 minutes and still had such a quite peaceful place to get away for a few minutes if we needed a break without having to Uber across town. WE WILL STAY AGAIN!!!!

Short getaway from Chicago

This is a perfect place if you want to be a short walk from the hustle & bustle of the French Quarter but want some quiet when it is time to sleep. Beautiful property! Hot shower & a cold bed to sleep in was all I needed but the decor made it even better.

It was clean and quiet. The bed was super comfy and it was the perfect location. Across the street from the french quarter but far enough to feel tranquil. The host was thoughtful and provided yogurts and juice as well as coffee and tea. A wonderful experience!

A must stay!

We had a fantastic experience staying in the Cottage at the Lanaux Mansion. Beth and her husband communicated details about the property early on and were great communicators all the way through the stay. We had Hurricane Zeta hit the day we flew in and Beth made sure we were comfortable and felt safe throughout the storm. We had the pleasure of taking a tour of the Mansion to learn about this history of the home (amazing.) We would definitely stay again! The Cottage was perfect for a couples getaway, private, clean and quiet but near all of the action of the French Quarter.

Cozy cottage in great location

My husband and I enjoyed a very nice weekend getaway at the Lanaux Mansion’s cottage. When we arrived we were amazed by how comforting and cozy the cottage was. The courtyard is beautifully decorated and has a very relaxing atmosphere. The cottage is cozy and nicely decorated and has a very comfortable bed. The Lanaux Mansion cottage was perfect for our weekend getaway and had everything we needed to enjoy a carefree weekend away. Check in was very simple you just use the keypad with the code. The owners are very inviting and courteous and made sure we had everything we needed. We really loved that everything was within walking distance and we got to enjoy so many new sites this trip. We are very grateful to of spent a wonderful weekend at the Lanaux Mansion and can’t wait to return.

We really enjoyed our weekend getaway. Property was as described and location was prime! Beth accommodated our early arrival and the check in process was seamless. The snacks and water in the fridge were a nice touch! Location is close enough to walk everywhere to hit the hot spot locations but far enough away to feel some seclusion from the party scene. Thanks for sharing your property Beth, we will be back in the future.

Our enchanted stay at Sophie’s Cottage

My husband and I stayed at Sophie’s Enchanted Cottage for a friend’s wedding week, as well as to celebrate my Birthday. The cottage was just that-Enchanting! It was everything we wished for and more. It looked as cozy and clean as the photos. We had everything we needed including snacks, cold, filtered water, and coffee. It is perfectly located on Esplanade Ave and Chartres, and is quiet and clean! Beth is a fantastic host! She’s friendly and also forgiving after I scared her twice in the Laundry Room( not intentionally). Yes, you have access to a beautiful, new, techy washer and dryer for free-detergent included! You can sip your Hurricanes or Voodoos while waiting in the cozy patio area connected to the cottage and listen to the zen sounds of the fountain. Beth is very knowledgeable about her city and gives great recommendations for anything you’re interested in. I highly recommend this property! It will always stand out in my memories! We’ll be back! Thank you Beth! Sheila M
