River House
Host was very helpful and friendly. Definitely made our little family getaway a great experience.

5 Star Nola Culture Cottage 5 Minutes to Downtown
The place is safe, very clean, and offered a lot of privacy. It’s also at a good location, very close to downtown and there are a lot of great restaurants nearby. Hollis has some great local recommendations for restaurants so don’t hesitate to ask.

Had a wonderful stay in a great location. Kelly and Mark were very helpful and responsive. The house has plenty of room for a lot of people, is easy to get to from the airport or downtown and is right by the levee for lovely morning walks by the lake. Would definitely stay again.

Water front modern unit 126
This was a lovely place that absolutely fit our needs for this trip. It was well maintained and easy to find. The guest book was a great idea. It gave us ideas of local restaurants and places to visit in the area that other guests had enjoyed. We would stay here again.

Close to Airport and Store
I spent a week with my kids, and family, a total of 5 people and we felt comfortable. the host was very nice and gave us the basics so we did not have to work about finding supplies when we arrived late at night. the area is not close to much but we loved it because it was a calm and quite area. I would definitely visit again.

The Blue Mermaid
The apartment was very easy to find. There was ample parking. The host is very responsive to any questions I had.

So glad I found Rebecca's place. It gave me a comfortable, peaceful spot to get work done and unwind. I will definitely look to book her place again next time I'm in town to see family!

Coquille Cottage Located in Historic Madisonville
Absolutely stunning outdoor pool area landscaping; peaceful and private. Loved the hot tub! A big bonus for our fam was the secret back yard door leading to the Abita Roasting Co restaurant. The main floor of the house is fairly accessible, just a few small stairs, for older guests that was nice. Loved the interior vault and beams in the main room. Property manager was very responsive and kind.

Tranquil Bayou Cottage on 4 private acres
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful Airbnb that truly exceeded my expectations. The property is located on the bayou with a beautiful walking trail, which was an absolute delight during my recovery from surgery. The cleanliness of the space was remarkable, making it a safe and comfortable environment for my needs. I was especially grateful for the recliner in the sun room, which allowed me to relax without discomfort. The hand-held showerhead was also a fantastic addition, making my post-surgery routine much easier. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to recover. I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a peaceful and convenient stay. Thank you to the hosts for providing such a perfect environment for healing!

Jones Point Inn - Great Fishing-Swamp Tours
Excellent location. Not far from the city but still peaceful, with the waterway canal right out front. A major swamp tour with hotel pickup was a block down but honestly it didn't seem to impact the serenity of the location. House was clean and had everything we needed for the stay.

Private Lake Cottage in Historic Old Mandeville
We loved our stay at Mike and Carol’s from the moment we arrived—Our kids shouted everything that was cool about the house. From the peaceful porch swing and sitting area, to the ARCADE console in the kids’ room, to the MASSAGE CHAIR in the primary room, we hardly wanted to leave. We booked the home for its proximity to the beach front and Old Mandeville (where my uncle lives), and it did not disappoint on location. This was the perfect place to stay as a family, and we hope it is available every year we visit. Mike and Carol were great hosts and made it truly feel like home away from home.

Bayou Boeuf House
Our stay at the Bayou Boeuf house was Amazing! The house was immaculate and extremely organized. Carolyn is an exceptional host! Her attention to detail throughout the house is incredible. She even thought ahead to bring in a baby bed for my grandson, which was greatly appreciated. The backyard is beautiful, and we enjoyed peaceful mornings on the back patio drinking our coffee. We had a delicious dinner at Trudy’s one night and walked to Zam’s for a swamp tour one afternoon all of which were recommended on her page. My family loved this beautiful house and felt right at home. This home definitely exceeded our expectations!

Cozy North Shore Getaway
We had a great stay at Jayson's home. The house is very well stocked with everything you need. The layout of the house is very functional, and the deck was a great place to relax and socialize. It was so close to our planned activities. We were there for riding bikes on St. Tammany Trace and a jazz concert at the Dew Drop Jazz & Social Hall. Jayson's house is very close to the trail and is a 5–10-minute bike ride to Dew Drop.

Blume Cottage Vintage Meets Modern
Blume cottage is in excellent location. Old historic Mandeville is great. Accommodations were awesome. Wonderful weekend
