After staying several days in the French Quarter, we decided to head up to the Northshore area so…read morethe Hubby could check out some of the surrounding breweries. We found Marvilla online and booked a night there; my only regret is that we only got to stay for one night :) This place was such a peaceful retreat from the craziness of the French Quarter, it reminded me of the Louisana version of "Key West". Beautiful house and gardens. Michael, the owner, was great. Loved the beautiful room with the comfy bed and the lovely huge soaking tub that was perfect for a long bubble bath. It is in walking district to everything in the "Old Mandeville" area and so close to the lakefront. We walked to all of the surrounding bars and dining spots and just felt so relaxed !!!! The lakefront is lined with beautiful, raised, opulant Creole Cottages and huge trees dripping in spanish moss, it is a beautiful area. My advice is "GO STAY THERE", Micheal is a great host and we loved "Baby Cat", the 20-yeear old, one-eyed kitty who was our welcoming mascot.

My fiancé and I came for a few days and I cannot get over our stay at this Bed and Breakfast. Only…read moreabout 30mins from Nola, across a bridge, which wasn't bad at all. Linda (the owner) gave us a fair&unbeatable price for the Larger poolside suite despite it being Mardi Gras, Valentine's day, as well as it being the weekend when we arrived. Linda was a DOLL! She took care of us, fluffed our room when we were out & reloaded our fridge with breakfast daily. She showed us around the place and welcomed us like family. I truly felt like I was at mom's house. True southern hospitality. We had a few good talks about the history of her house and her life as she once lived in New Orleans. My fiancé enjoyed talking with Linda as New Orleans is where he was born and raised. Despite our talks, Linda does not hover! Which was so appreciated, when you're on a "romantic"vacation. We had our own privacy during our stay as each suite is separate and inaccessible from where Linda stays in her home. We came and went as we please and used the hot tub at night as late as we wanted. We had our own private entrance, which was incredibly nice. The privacy was appreciated as I didn't know what to expect when we first arrived, but I was prepared to be open minded. I think I will always choose a Bed and Breakfast over a lousy hotel in the future. The rooms were grand and clean. The bathroom was nice and the shower as well. Everything was clean. Its just an old house, but I loved the cottage vibes. It was home-y. The town is walkable and cute! A Mardi Gras parade came right through down the street, during our last day there, which was nice. The poolside porch and hot tub made me feel like I was at a resort. The beauty of the home is breathtaking! Romantic cottage vibes! Perfect for couples or even a small girls trip. I will definitely be back to Linda's next year when we visit again for Mardi Gras. Linda has made me never want to stay at a hotel again.

This is a membership RV campground and they also rent cabins. We are coast to coast members and…read morethe cost on this park is $10 nightly. If you don't know what membership camping is all about then call them and they will probably give you 2 nights free camping if you listen to their spiel. I really like this campground because they are very friendly and they have a lot of activities. They also cook breakfast and lunch on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The food is very good there and the cooks are super nice. The campground itself is nice, but not a luxury campground. The Park is very safe and it has a country feel. The campground is probably about 45 minutes from New Orleans. The Causeway going across the lake is just south. The area around the campground has a lot of history and the Abita Brewery is nearby. Abita is the home of an artesian well and the water is reported to be very ancient. The park is located halfway between Hammond and Slidell and north of Mandeville. All three of these towns are substantial so you will find anything you need within a 20 minute drive. I am giving this park 5 stars because of the activities, safety, location, and friendliness. The spots are pretty close together and there is not a lot of outdoor space next to my camp spot. The roads are gravel. I would not call the park luxurious. This may detract for some people, but for me I don't mind and I am happy that the park is only 10 bucks a night.

We had been out on the motorcycle all day, in the heat, and were looking forward to a chance to freshen up and shower before dinner, regardless of the place. We were about to be very delighted! We pulled up in front of the residence on a very quiet, tree-lined street. There was plenty of space (and shade, lovely, wonderful shade) to park on the street, but off-street parking is also available. What a lovely place! We were met at the front door by one of the proprietors, Maureen, and welcomed to her home. We instantly felt like family and as Maureen showed us to our room, she was excited to hear about our day and to offer suggestions on how to enjoy our stay. The room was absolutely perfect. We had a small sitting/breakfast area with coffee and tea available, some muffins and cakes, along with snacks, and a refrigerator containing water and soft drinks, along with two slices of quiche (which we very thoroughly enjoyed, heated in the microwave, the next morning). The chairs and table were comfortable and were perfect for relaxing and looking out the windows at the pretty little yard. The bedroom off the breakfast area contained a beautiful four-poster bed and a mattress that left me envious and eager to return. I truly do not remember sleeping this well in recent, or otherwise, memory. Mental note to self, get this mattress. The bedding was high end sateen and really made the night restful, relaxing, and just perfect. The bathroom has a powered jacuzzi tub! It totally sealed the deal for us. We are daily hot tube users at home, so this was a welcome addition to our stay. The bathroom was neatly decorated and was just perfect. After dinner, we made our way to the bed and I barely remember my head hitting the pillow. When I woke up, I just lounged around in the bed for an hour to relish in the comfortable, homey feel of the place. We did make use of the breakfast space, brewing some dark coffee and enjoying the quiche prepared for us by our hosts. It was delicious, as was the coffee, and was the perfect way to end our stay. We truly enjoyed our stay and would recommend the Blue Willow to anyone, just not on the nights I'm planning to escape and come back!

We thought since the name of this is a bed and breakfast that it would include breakfast. However,…read morewe were disappointed to learn that breakfast would cost an additional $15 per person each day! We already paid $265 per night to stay here! Needless to say, we did not opt to pay the additional fee for something that should be included in the price. If they are going to call this a bed and breakfast, guests shouldn't have to pay extra for breakfast. Also, the owners have a child, or possibly children, who made it difficult for us to sleep. This is because we could hear screaming, banging and pounding above us, well after 10:00 P.M. each night. We did not experience peaceful sleep any of the nights we stayed. Finally, even though the binder that the owners put together with guest information states that our room will be tidied up daily, it was only done three of the four days we stayed. They skipped a day for some reason and we weren't informed about it ahead of time. Will not stay or recommend this to anyone.

While on the road today I called 7 locations prior to landing on this one. Andy was exceptionally helpful. He told me EVERYTHING I needed to know and assured me there would be parking for our van+. Upon arriving, we found the truck lot to be full, so he allowed us to pull in and park along the side stress free! Check in was super fast and our room is clean, spacious and just.... perfect. They even have a hot tub and laundry! I had to bother Andy for change, then detergent and he just smiled and helped me out. The loaction is CRAZY convenient to I-12. There is no food within walking distance or on site, otherwise I would have given a 5. However, breakfast is served in the morning and there are vending machines. There are also TWO major fuel stations and a Dollar General just right at the turnoff onto the street. (Edit: The walls are rather thin and the beds quite firm.

This place was awful. We will not be back.
