Bywater Home, Parking and Pet Friendly Retreat by RedAwning

Discover Historic Bywater Cottage 3149 Chartres Street!


This Southern home includes all the modern comforts with updated appliances and amenities.  The estate's two-bedroom guest cottage comfortably sleeps comfortabillity 4 but could accommodate up to 6 adults with 1200 sq ft room. The Guest suite's history can be seen in the bayou-styled porch, 100-year-old pew, and southern rockers.  This  Victorian cottage boasts high ceilings and furnishings from the movie "Angels Sing".  The original H.H. Slawson Plantation’s stables, Smitty house, and carriage grounds are now adjacent gardens and pavilion areas for leisure outdoor time or a comfy remote work office. Your zoom colleagues will be jealous! The home also has off-street parking available!


Walk to the local Bywater venues (see links here) https://bywatercottages.com/bywater-neighborhood/   or be adventurous and head to the Faubourg Marigny or French Quarter.  After a day of touring the city or walking the riverfront return to your guest home to allow yourself a shaded retreat in the courtyard or pavilion. In the evenings enjoy the courtyards and gardens while cicadas and tree frogs and a glass of wine lull you into the New Orleans state of mind! 


The Victorian Guest House built in 1892 stands on the back of the estate's original Creole cottage built directly after the Civil War from 1866 through 1868 when completed. Historic preservation evokes charm and elegance throughout the property. 


Furnishings have been acquired from movie sets such as AMC new series Interview with a Vampire and the Christmas production starring Harry Connick Jr and Willie Nelson rocking away the hours. Our charm is locked into the mortar from actors and actresses, musicians, writers, athletes, and everyday joe and Jane who have laid the foundation for our guest cottages! 


The next generation of magic is coming to life with artists in residence such as Josh Harmon, Work remotely has brought fantastic new minds to the draw of the South away from Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis, Atlanta, and Baltimore. Without all of your patronage, we would not be able to preserve this amazing space.

Nice stay in Bywater
This property was everything advertised. Walk to Frenchmen and Bourbon Streets was reasonable, safe. We had four adult males, but if stayed on the main streets never felt any issues, saw females walking regularly. Michael was very helpful and responsive the entire time. Set up rides to and from the airport(thanks Jason) and provided us with good local inside information that added to the fun and enjoyment we had in New Orleans.

Just the ladies
My daughters and I had our first trip to New Orleans and were delighted with our host. Michael made us feel special without being obtrusive. He quickly answered all questions and requests; if felt like he dropped everything to meet our needs. He coordinated travel to and from the airport, and an off handed question turned quickly into a mystical experience after he took the time to search out anoption for us. I would highly recommend staying at the cottage.

I was extremely impressed with the level of customer service provided by the owner! He ensured that we were picked up from the Train Station so we would not need to use an Uber or Lyft, he offered to pick up any items we may need at the store prior to our arrival and checked us in personally. His knowledge of the history of his property was amazing and intriguing. The beds were very comfortable and the courtyard ambiance was perfect - a nice evening with friends and wine! I will definitely stay here again when we come back to New Orleans!

Great!
Wasn’t aware that the backyard was a shared patio area, nor did we realize the homeowner was going to be in the yard the majority of the days. Although extremely friendly, we would have liked a bit more privacy. Also, the air conditioning seemed to have a hard time getting below 80 degrees inside the home. It was over 100 degrees outside for the time we were there, but would have liked a cooler experience inside the home. Everything else including the landlord was absolutely perfect though! Great neighborhood and perfect place to have a few friends and enjoy New Orleans without being smack in the middle of the quarter. It was only a couple bucks to Lyft to and from the quarter to the cottage.

Sickening
Some of the rooms in images were photoshopped or altered. The home is in need of repair and has cockroaches. Which obviously ended our stay. The host company will deny this -even with picture proof. Don’t advise anyone to stay you’ll lose all your money while they lie & refuse to give a refund.

Great spot, fantastic location, great host!
We really enjoyed our stay! The highlight is the front porch and the whole outdoor courtyard area! Such a fab place to hang out! The location is also great. We not only explored Bywater, but walked over to Frenchman Street and the French Quarter. The house itself is charming. Older, but comfortable and stocked with everything we needed. On top of it all, B. Michael was a great host - super friendly and helpful!

Historic NOLA Neighborhood
I could have spent all day lounging in the courtyard of this lovely property. I was looking for something more non-touristy in New Orleans, and I got exactly what I wanted. This beautifully renovated historic property offered everything I was looking for. The owner was super responsive and provided interesting details about the building and the neighborhood, in general. Very dog friendly, which was a plus as well. The only suggestion (NOT to be seen as a negative, because the owner was very clear about what supplies were available and even offered to have groceries available on our arrival) is to provide very basic items (hand soap, paper products such as Kleenex, coffee, tea, sugar) to make the stay even easier. That being said, I loved the stay, the owner was great, and I will definitely be coming back!!!

PERFECT VICINITY
The property was AMAZING. It was in a great vicinity where the "little" off the beaten track resturants are located. Honestly, we never drove our vehicle anywhere except to the swamp tour. The house was clean, the bed slept wonderful and it was equiped with everything you would need. Our fur babies went and the yard was perfect for them. If we ever return to New Orleans we will look for property offered by Michael. He was amazing. He was on the property working on a residence next door and told us where we should grocery shop, eat and how to get to the French Market, French Quarter, Bourban Street, etc. WE HAD A GREAT TIME.

Family visit with aging parents
The property proximity to amenities is wonderful! The owner was very easy to communicate with and explained the check in process perfectly. The location in Bywater is great - lots of restaurants close by and walkable to the Quarter. There is a gracious porch, perfect for morning coffee with a small, useable back yard. Large kitchen with full refrigerator, and stove - no dishwasher and small eating space for dining. The bedrooms are good sized and there are 2 living/sitting rooms. Nice secured parking. Only negatives were small bathroom/lack of space, lack of good dining space and painting needed. We will definetly stay there again!

Great Place to stay
This is a great place to stay. Michael is an amazing host. The house has a lot of character. The house has a security system and locked gate to secure your vehicle. Also has a nice patio area. We felt very safe at the house and within a few block radius. There are several nice eateries within a safe walking distance. I would not recommend walking to the French quarter/market from this location. It’s only a mile away but didn’t feel super safe. Homeless, drug users, graffiti, and lots of broken glass from vandalized cars. If you stay here definitely take an Uber. I would stay here again in the future.
