About

Experience the charm of a beautifully restored 3BR/2BA historic-registry home. With two king beds and two twins (sleeps 6), a fully equipped chef’s kitchen with a gas range, a soaking tub, and a spacious walk-in shower, comfort comes easy. Spend your mornings on the wraparound porch swing and your evenings on the back deck or by the fire pit. All in a quiet, walkable neighborhood just minutes from LSU, the River Center, great restaurants, the Capitol, and the Mississippi River levee.

Good to know

Step into classic Southern charm with a wrap-around front porch, complete with an overhead fan and a relaxing porch swing—perfect for morning coffee or unwinding at sunset. Out back, you’ll find a spacious deck with an outdoor dining table and a cozy fire pit, giving you plenty of ways to enjoy the outdoors as much as the indoors. Inside, the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you might need—we love to cook, and we've outfitted the space with quality essentials to make meal prep easy. You'll also find complimentary local Community Coffee and a selection of teas to start your day off right.

We absolutely loved our stay here! This house has so much character, and if you like a good porch swing - this is your place! My family spent hours perusing the book collection, so if you are a reader you will love your stay.

A historic home with a large porch and swing surrounded by thoughtful landscaping welcomes you in. The home itself is furnished thoughtfully like someone would decorate their beloved home. Always a good idea to have twin beds and they were trimmed with matching quilts. This house is five or six houses away from my great grandmothers house and we enjoyed walking the street while she shared childhood stories. I would love to stay here again. One of my favorite airbnbs.

Nathan's place was exactly as described. My friends and I came in town to do the local escape room (13th Gate), and Nathan's place was located just a few blocks away. The home is old, but clearly renovated and well cared for. I would definitely stay here again if I'm in town again.
