MORE About our area:
The area known as Old Arabi is made up of two historic districts: The Old Arabi Historic District, 150 acres bordering Jackson Barracks and the Mississippi River including parts of Mehle, Angela, and Esteban Streets, and the Friscoville Street Historic District, 160 acres from the 100-900 blocks of Friscoville. Old Arabi was named one of America's Prettiest Painted places in a 2012 nationwide search conducted by the Paint Quality Institute of America for the stunning use of color on the area's elaborate historical homes and buildings. It's close proximity to the French Quarter and no shortage of things to do right around our home, this is the perfect location to soak up everything Nola has to offer.

Getting Around our area:
New Orleans is a small city, which makes getting around a breeze in an Uber or Lyft. The French Quarter is an 15 minute UBER/Lyft drive away, which will never run you more than $15-20 depending on events and holiday seasons (which is even more affordable when you split it with your group!). Rates go up during events.

Perfect Home
We rented this beautiful "Alligator House" for a 50th birthday celebration. We were five couples from all over. The house has amazing character. It was very clean, well stocked and very comfortable to us all. It was the perfect distance from everything. We literally felt like we were going home at night after spending the days out in the French Quarter. There is a nice backyard, with few outdoor games and indoor games as well. There were a few little quirky things, but they added to the character of the home. All in all, the house is a must rent! Jami was super responsive any time I messaged her. I appreciated that greatly. I only wish it was a family home to someone in my family lol, because I would go there every year. Thank you Jami for your lovely place!

What makes this property unique

We were told that our home was built in 1890's but at a different location . It was moved to this corner lot sometime in the early 1900's. The home is known as the "Rimkus House" or the "Alligator house" . There was a REAL 6 foot alligator and a peacock that lived in our yard as pets way back in the day. I have pictures of them in the house for all to see.
