Shotgun Life on Algiers Point

Wednesday, January 12, 2011

You May Find Yourself (Renting) a Shotgun Shack

Or you may find yourself in another part of the world.

If that sounds good, then this is the place for you. A furnished two-bedroom, one bath unit, large kitchen, front room, den and backyard awaits your next visit to New Orleans. Enjoy the quiet, quaint life of Algiers Point on the West Bank, with easy access to music, bars, retail and restaurants, or take a short ferry ride across the river to Canal Street, entrance to both the French Quarter and the Warehouse District. From there you can walk, cab, trolley, bus, and/or ride a bike to almost any area of the city you like, such as the Faubourg Marigny, the Bywater, Mid City or the famous Faubourg Treme.

Or, stay on the "pernt": for libations, visit the The Old Point, where many a Hollywood movie has been shot; the Vine-n-Dine for great wines and light meals; the Dry Dock for a quick drink or bite after the ferry ride; Louie's Bar, just around the corner; and the Crown and Anchor, a wee bit of ole England just steps from the ferry.  Stroll along the levee with coffee and sweets from Tout de Suite during the morning, or catch a sunset during the late afternoon.  Pick up ingredients for dinner at the well-stocked Algiers Point Grocery.  And check out the art and music found all over Algiers Point, where the people are friendly and the nights are as quiet as you want them to be.

Great for groups of 4-6 who like adventure and discovery.
