our stay at the magic cottage
We were totally delighted with our stay at the magic cottage to the point that we have recommended our friends to come there. The comfort of this house with its typically Louisiana feel is perfect and the neighborhood is enchanting. The owner Julia is kind and gave us excellent recommendations for activities and restaurants in the area. I highly recommend this accommodation

Charming Shotgun house in a quiet, picturesque nieborhood
The house was well-kept and clean, with a nice back area to relax in the morning. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and walking distance to Walgreens and Whole Foods. Music and restaurants are nearby neighborhood, and it is a short drive to the tourist areas in the city. Julia was easy to communicate with and very accommodating.

One of Our Best Stays Ever!
We loved the property; it was exactly as described. So clean. Nice wood floors. Cute neighborhood. I had my morning coffee outside on the Adirondack Chair every morning. Many friendly neighbors passed by and said hello. And often Julia ) the VRBO owner, who lives next door) would pop out and say hello. I always enjoyed chatting with her. By the end of the week, she felt like an old friend. The VRBO was very comfortable, with lots of nice little touches. For example, there were a couple of small vases with fresh cuttings of greens. I also liked the artwork. The entire place was very tastefully decorated. One of the nicest VRBOs I’ve ever stayed in. And I’ve stayed in many! If I ever come back to New Orleans, I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. What a wonderful stay.

What makes this property unique

Location location location!

In New Orleans we have a word to describe a little something extra, lagniappe. I would like to offer you some lagniappe to kick-start the magic. Just let me know if you would prefer Champagne, red or white wine, or maybe a nice bottle of Rose' and I will have it waiting for your arrival. Laissez les bon temps rouler y'all!
