Neighborhood

North of the noise and saturated color of the Quarter is a New Orleans neighborhood that’s perfected the art of living. “Welcome to Mid-City,” read the signs on the neutral ground. And that’s truth in advertising. It’s the kind of place where your auto mechanic invites you to a crawfish boil and a total stranger may buy you a drink at an Irish pub or a cannoli at an Italian bakery. Take the red streetcar line up Canal to the Cemeteries (Mid-City’s dead neighbors are as interesting as the live ones) or bike the new 2.6-mile-long Lafitte Greenway that stretches from Basin Street to Carrollton Avenue and, conveniently, past a po’ boy shop or two – or 17 – with a sno-ball shop and a micro-brewery thrown in for good measure. Buttermilk biscuits. Live music. A bowl of Vietnamese pho. Who wouldn’t want to visit? Eat. Drink. Get up here. (via Visit New Orleans)

Guest Access

🔐 Your Private NOLA Retreat You’ll have full access to the unit in a traditional New Orleans duplex shotgun home—no shared interior spaces. Your entry is secure and simple, with smart lock codes changed between every stay. Unlock the door and step into your own stylish and comfortable home base—perfect for living like a local in Mid-City.

We had a great stay at this Airbnb in New Orleans! The location was perfect—walkable to so many great restaurants and just a quick Uber ride to the French Quarter. The house itself is very spacious with a great layout, which made it really comfortable to relax and spread out. Our dog absolutely loved it too and felt right at home. Overall, it was a wonderful place to stay and we would definitely come back!

We enjoyed the neighborhood feel and how walkable it was. All the restaurants in the area were very good. The Street Car to the French Quarter is located within walking distance. It was very peaceful at night and we walked the neighborhood in the evening. Caroline's place is a great location to experience New Orleans.

We stayed as a family of four. This worked great for us. Excellent location to launch from and never felt very far away from our destination. Host was very responsive and the house was very clean.

We had a wonderful stay at this adorable shotgun house in Mid-City! The location is perfect — super convenient and close to everything around the city, making it easy to get wherever you need to go in New Orleans. The home truly reminded me of my grandmother’s house growing up in New Orleans, which made the experience feel even more special. It has such a warm, homegrown charm that really captures the spirit of the city. The house was well-stocked with an abundance of clean towels, the beds were very comfortable, and there was even an air mattress available, which was a great added bonus. Overall, a cozy and charming place to stay!

Our host Caroline was absolutely amazing. A true Superhost! She kept us updated on road conditions and the weather, which made traveling stress-free. The home was lovely, comfortable, and perfectly located near everything we needed. Spending Mardi Gras here was an excellent decision, and we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. I would definitely book again!
