This charming Victorian guest house, built in 1892, offers 1,200 sq ft of cozy comfort with modern amenities. Our two-bedroom cottage comfortably sleeps 4, with room for up to 6 adults. Relax on the bayou-style porch, surrounded by our charming courtyard and gardens. Next, explore the best New Orleans neighborhoods by stepping out into the vibrant Bywater, Faubourg Marigny, and the French Quarter discovering local dining, music, and art in the heart of it all! With off-street parking and an inspiring remote work setup, this is your perfect New Orleans getaway! The mystic of this true historic gem, lovingly restored in its Southern charm with modern comforts, offers an unforgettable experience for guests. Nestled behind a garden gate, the quaint cottage is the perfect place for a cozy escape and near minutes from Bourbon Street shenanigans. As you approach the cottage, the bayou-style porch welcomes you, featuring a 125-year-old pew and inviting southern rockers—a perfect spot to sip morning coffee while taking in the quiet hum of the neighborhood. Step inside to find high ceilings and original hardwood floors that echo the elegance of its 1892 Victorian roots. Every corner of this guest house tells a story; from the antique furnishings to the unique pieces sourced from movie sets, including “Interview With a Vampire” and the holiday classic “Angels Sing” starring Harry Connick Jr. and Willie Nelson. The property sits on the estate of the original H.H. Slawson Plantation, where the former stables, Smitty house, and carriage grounds have transformed into lush gardens and pavilion areas. These serene outdoor spaces are perfect for leisurely afternoons with a book, evening gatherings, or even a unique remote office setup. Imagine hosting virtual meetings with the charm of a Southern Garden as your backdrop—choose from 9 different areas so your colleagues will surely be envious, with a different picturesque backdrop each day! Beyond the garden walls lies the vibrant Bywater neighborhood, bursting with creativity and soul. Walk to the local cafes, shops, and venues that give Bywater its unique character (see links \[here\](https://bywatercottages.com/bywater-neighborhood/)), or wander a bit further to the lively streets of Faubourg Marigny and the historic French Quarter for a taste of New Orleans' famed music, food, and nightlife. After a day exploring the city or strolling along the riverfront, return to your private oasis. The courtyard and pavilion invite you to unwind as cicadas and tree frogs sing you into a true New Orleans state of mind. This cottage is not just a place to stay; it is a living piece of history. Built on the same grounds as the estate’s original Creole cottage, constructed between 1866 and 1868 right after the Civil War as a brothel, it is a testament to the city’s enduring spirit. The walls have absorbed the energy of artists, musicians, writers, and travelers from all walks of life. It continues to inspire a new generation of creators, including jazz artist Josh Harmon! Our home is always drawing in minds from cities like Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis, Atlanta, New York and Baltimore, not to mention Europe and Asia. By choosing this cottage, you become part of its rich legacy, helping preserve this magical space for future guests. Additional perks include off-street parking and proximity to a host of local attractions, from James Beard Award semi-finalist eateries like BABS formerly known as Bywater American Bistro to the vibrant music scene at The Spotted Cat Music Club and the experiential space JAMNOLA. Whether y'all seek a short-term retreat or a longer stay (28 days or more), the Historic Bywater Cottage promises an experience filled with the warmth, culture, and magic that define New Orleans. \*Nearest Commercial Airport: Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (~17 miles away). 25-OSTR-18954 \*\*House Rules:\*\* \* No smoking \* Pets Allowed. $100/pet/stay (Plus tax).
