Erwin was an amazing host. The first night, he cooked dinner for us. It was amazing. On Sunday, he took us on a tour of New Orleans and shared some of the history with us. It was a pleasant drive and tour. I learned several things about The Big Easy that i didn't know. I will definitely book again with him and his family.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the Shaw’s. Mr. Shaw and his family made us feel more than welcomed with the bottles of wine waiting for us upon arrival and those delicious oysters that he had for us as well. He also took us on a nice tour of the city, and any problem that we had he made sure to take care of it. The house was very cleaned and stocked with the things that we needed for our stay. It was definitely home away from home for us and we can’t thank him and his family enough for making us feel so welcomed. We came as friends but we left as family! Whenever we make our way back we’ll for sure book with the Shaw’s.

A different part of New Orleans for us
4 of us stayed for a week. It was a new perspective for us, since we usually stay in the Garden District. Ervin and Darlene were so nice and so accommodating. Darlene’s gumbo and Ervin’s oysters & potatoes were delicious!! The house has plenty of room and everything we needed. We would stay there again.

Best Rental
It was 6 adults, on this trip.. There was plenty of room for everyone. Mr.Shaw, made us feel like family and not just guest. All of his family was kind as well. The home was extremely clean and smells so good.. The best part about our whole stay, was those grilled oysters..Omg, the best I have ever had. The bread and potato served with them melts and your mouth..But guess what, Mr.Shaw asked what we were drinking, and had 2 bottles of wine waiting when we arrived. My children, son in law, sister and I are truly grateful for such a kind host..We really do appreciate, your hospitality Mr.Shaw..God continue to bless, you and your family..

Ervin met us as we arrived because I had accidentally missed his earlier communication. He was friendly and helpful. He even made us dinner the last night. Best grilled oysters I've ever had!

Great Family Rental House
The host was very responsive and accommodating. He made delicious oysters and had a bottle of crown waiting for us at check- in, and his wife made delicious gumbo. Two of the rooms have a king size bed and a private bathroom, which was a great surprise. The third bedroom got the main bathroom, which worked out nicely. I have traveled to New Orleans several times and I do think you will want to uber or drive to the French Quarter, as I don't think it is in walking distance or a safe walk if you're not from the area. We drove and didn't have a problem. There are also grocery stores within a short drive. Overall, I would recommend staying here and would stay again.

Pleasant surprise
My family and me came to New Orleans for the Halloween festivities and decided to stay here. The home itself was clean, and suited for a large group of people. Our hosts were incredibly accommodating on top of being amazing cooks. The oyster sampling was delicious, and even the apprehensive people enjoyed them. The gumbo they have available is also AMAZING. Everything they offer is reasonably priced, traditional New Orleans food, and they’re directly next door. I had no issues with the property at all and honestly didn’t even have to ask for anything. All of the Ubers were $20 or less getting to the French Quarter or Marigny. The neighborhood was quiet at night, so we got solid sleep after all of our activities.

Super clean and comfy. The host family were all super nice and Ervin was great. The oysters when we arrived were awesome and got the whole trip off to a great start. The house is an easy Uber ride to the Quarter. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful at night. Never had any problems. Would definately repeat!

2nd time staying here. As Mr Ervin says. Come as friends leave as family. This is and will always be our place to stay when visiting New Orleans. Comfortable well appointed house to stay in. Easy quick ride to the quarter. Quiet neighborhood. Looking forward to the next time we can get down here and enjoy the city.

Beautiful home and beautiful hosts!
My 2 sons and I stayed at this lovely home for our Spring Break vacation in New Orleans. Our hosts contacted us prior to our arrival to introduce themselves and offer their assistance for information about making our vacation the best possible. We arrived on a late flight with a welcome text from our host letting us know they were preparing a welcome for us. That welcome included a wonderful bottle of my choice of liquor, freshly grilled oysters as well as some other tasty snacks. Our host showed us our immaculately clean and well equipped house. Our beds were vey comfortable and the house so welcoming. He chatted with us about our plans and helped us with suggestions and even drive around with us our first morning to show us the area. Additionally, our host and his wife were both excellent cooks and you have the option of ordering delicious and freshly cooked means from them. We ordered dinner several nights during our stay and those meals were all delicious! I have used VRBO for many years and numerous trips and have never felt so welcomed by a host! Not only was our house so comfortable, but the host couple made us feel as welcomed as friends. Interacting with this lovely couple was a highlight of our trip and they even went out of their way to help us. We had a problem with our airline and last minute needed to stay an extra day in New Orleans and they allowed us to stay an extra day. A huge part of my initial decision to rent this home was all the positive reviews about the home, area and the owners. The reviews are accurate, this is hands down there best experience I have ever had renting through VRBO and I now consider Ervin and his wife to be wonderful new friends! Trust the reviews, rent this home and have a wonderful vacation in New Orleans!
