This cute house sits in a great neighborhood. We enjoyed having plenty of space to spread out with our family of six. Also—My husband and I needed to work a bit on vacation and we appreciated the little office off the primary bedroom. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking and there were good options for coffee, tea, etc. It’s a great house!

Kellie's house in the Baton Rouge Garden District was absolutely perfect for our family to attend graduation of our daughter at LSU. The house was exactly as described, and Kellie was a wonderful host who communicated very well. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip, the house, and Kellie's graciousness answering questions and giving us some history lessons as well!
Highly recommend!

We were EXTREMELY impressed by this home. Everything was first class and the attention to detail was incredible. The house was meticulously clean and Kellie was very responsive when we asked for a late checkout due to inclement weather. We would certainly stay there again if and when we return to Baton Rouge!

Lovely home located in a charming neighborhood. Close to lots of restaurants and sights without getting on the interstate. Owners have thought of any and everything you may need during your stay.

This place is outstanding!!! Everything we needed was there, and communicating with the owner was flawless. The location can't be beat if you want to walk to restaurants, coffee shops, antique stores, etc. Ramps to interstates were close by, We are walkers, always trying to get in our 10,000, and it was so enjoyable just walking the blocks of tree-lined live oaks and beautiful homes.

We traveled from Georgia to attend a Mardi Gras Ball. The location was great! Our hostess was fantastic. She gave us a list of places to eat (the ones we tried were great). Communication was quick and easy. Highly recommend staying here. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Our stay in Baton Rouge was to attend a graduation event at the Cane Center which was nearby. The house is set back between two other properties and can be a little deceiving at first; however, when you walk-in thru the front door, it’s really spacious and well appointed inside! The furnishings and amenities were nice. Everything you need for a coffee bar (or tea), wine fridge and bottled waters, nice relaxing sectional to a comfortable King bed in the master. Note: all bedrooms are up. Plenty of towels and shampoo, body soap dispenser in the master shower (nice touch). Comfortable back deck, partially covered in the back; nice for having a beverage and enjoying a visit. The location was pretty central for the dinners and activities that we had planned. The street that the house is located on was nice and seemed quiet. The parking is off street, plenty of room for one vehicle; a little tight for two full size vehicles but there is off street parking as well. The host had good recommendations on restaurants, coffee shops nearby, which we visited. Host was responsive and professional. We enjoyed our stay!

Conducting business in Baton Rouge. My wife and I were able to enjoy nearby eating establishments Elsie’s Plates and Pies and 30 minutes away Roberto’s. Both were excellent.
The house was clean and comfortable. Off-street parking was a plus. Everything a traveler would need is provided. Definitely will stay here again on next business trip.

So nice to come to a comfortable home while on vacation. We spent days in Baton Rouge exploring historical sites. This house was the perfect place for us. Close, but not too close, to town. The Capital, The Governor's Mansion, The Arsenal, The USS KIDD WWll destroyer and the LSU museum all made our history adventure come alive!! Then peace and quiet at night for the rest we needed to go again the next day!!! Thank you!!

The hostess is lovely and very helpful. The neighborhood is very lively and at this time of year all decorated for Halloween. The house is appointed and set up to meet all of a person's needs. And the fenced front yard is a joy for dog and dog owners alike. My dogs loved being able to look out the front glass doors at all the activity and running out in the front yard. A perfect place for pups.

My family stayed here recently. The property owner was very organized providing all check in information, wifi info, local restaurant suggestions, etc. The home is clean and well maintained. The air conditioning works great! This 2 story home is 2 miles from the LSU campus. We had a very nice stay with our family of 5. I would absolutely book this home again when we are in Baton Rouge.

Overall one of the best places we have stayed at. The area was lovely and walkable. The home itself was very comfortable and did indeed feel like a home away from home. This was not like some of the sparesely furnished rentals we have stayed at in the past, it was much more like a true BnB or hotel. I would/will absolutely stay here again. The local suggestions sent by the host were very useful and spot on. Incredibly happy to have found this place!
