We enjoyed our stay at the Mardi Gras Cottage. It was clean and the location was quiet. The Audubon Trail was close enough to bicycle to. We felt secure and enjoyed the proximity to New Orleans proper. We would love to return sometime.Thank you Michael!

Great Location!What a great location to escape to after a day in New Orleans. Large, private fenced-in yard (perfect if you have a dog) nice covered patio to relax on and feel those warm Gulf breezes….with a cocktail, of course. Host was available and responsive if needed.

The location was great! The place was clean, the neighborhood was nice. We walked the neighborhood two times during our stay, appears to be safe, no concerns. The place is pet friendly, there are bags and pooper scoopers for you to pick up after your dog. If we come back to New Orleans we will choose this place. One thing I will say, the place is a little dated, so if you want luxury, you will have to spend more money. :) The other thing we would like to have known is there were other people staying on the property. It appears there are three cottages together. One day we came back to the place and there were two people sitting on the patio drinking. It was a little alarming, but they were friendly. We did not have any contact with the host, as everything was laid out in the welcoming email. This is an excellent place to stay, convenient location, and the price is right!
