Summer Fun in New Orleans

June 2026 Newsletter
Hello!


The weather is heating up here in the Crescent City, not that that’s a problem for some of our properties. How does a lazy, long weekend with your own private pool sound? It’s such a great time to be here, especially if you’re a foodie. The next couple of months are stacked with food festivals, with NOWFE to Restaurant Week, Tales of the Cocktail AND the Pastry World Cup all upcoming. If that doesn’t whet your appetite, then we don’t know what! It’s also a good time to remember the advantages of a legal and licensed bed and breakfast inn. You can skip the third party rental horror stories like being locked out with no contacts, absent customer service, lists of chores and hidden extra fees - none of that applies with us,  We love to be ambassadors, so come and let us show off our wonderful home this summer. See you soon,
