House vacation rentals in Lafitte

We stayed at Pool Haven last week while moving our daughter into Tulane, and it was a fantastic home base for a very busy trip. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to Magazine Street, which made it easy to grab coffee, shop, or find great food in between all the moving errands. The house itself was clean, spacious, and had a relaxed, welcoming vibe. The pool was such a nice bonus—perfect for cooling off and relaxation together. Edward and David were incredibly gracious hosts—responsive, thoughtful, and so easy to communicate with. And Marlene, their sweet dog, was truly an angel! She added a special, comforting presence that made us feel right at home. We’d absolutely recommend Pool Haven to other Tulane families or anyone visiting New Orleans. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

My family stayed here for a weekend-long celebration of my birthday, and it was perfect for 10 adults - large well-provisioned kitchen, ample bathrooms, and large comfortable bedrooms. It's worth noting though that 3 of the bedrooms are attached railroad style, which was fine for us. The pool area was also beautiful and chill to relax after a few long days of being out and about. Highly recommend a stay here!

The house was just what our family needed for our trip to NOLA. The location is perfect. It took us about 15 minutes to get to wherever we wanted to go. There are plenty of restaurants and markets close by and within walking distance. The neighborhood was friendly and felt very safe. The house was just as described and was a nice place to come back to after a long day exploring. The hosts supplied so many things that are often forgotten by travelers. The pool was a welcome respite after a long hot day. The house provides plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. NOLA definitely has its own vibe and this house allowed us to feel like the locals during our stay. Thanks for sharing.

Everything was exactly as described. Alleshia was very responsive to all inquires. We ended up being there during terrific downpours, so we spent cozy hours indoors. The neighborhood is interesting and some of the properties are undergoing a face lift.

Had a great stay with a group for a wedding, the hosts were very responsive

We had an incredible stay for a long weekend with six people. The house was perfect for our group and we loved the pool in the backyard. Communication with the host was seamless and clear. Really great location, walking distance to magazine and nice neighborhood. We highly recommend this spot!

This was our second time staying at one of Thomas' properties, and we had another great stay. The home is beautifully decorated and maintained, and has everything you need for an easy and enjoyable stay. Thomas was very accommodating with check-in time and our last-minute request for a pack n' play -- a fantastic host! We found the neighborhood very friendly, and enjoyed the proximity to the Lafitte Greenway (access is just a block away -- we didn't even realize this when we rented the place!) and local businesses like Flour Moon and the Broadside. Highly recommend!

This Airbnb is beautiful! We rented this space for a girls weekend and it was truly stunning. The house is beautifully done, and the bathrooms are truly something else with the giant soaking tub. The only catch was that we went to the wrong door initially and then realized the true front door was the one a little further back and to the side. The house is gorgeous, the pool is lovely, and the hosts were really responsive and helpful. We really enjoyed the location, it was close to Magazine Street and the French Quarter but still in a quiet part of town. I would highly recommend this house to stay in!

We traveled to New Orleans to celebrate our son's graduation and Rachels place on the bayou was perfect! Everything was exactly as pictured. We enjoyed the gorgeous ride in with all the spanish moss covered trees and even saw a few gators. Rachel was very responsive to messages and quickly added a night for us (we just weren't ready to leave). 10/10 recommend.

Doyle and his family are great people. Can't wait to stay again. We had a great time in Jean Laffite!

We enjoyed our stay, and loved the location. The home was accommodating to our large group. Would love to come back one day

Great place to stay and a plenty of room for five adults. Convenient to New Orleans and Venice, where we were fishing. Family and I loved it and highly recommend it.

We enjoyed our time here, my son is already talking about coming back

This is the 2nd time we’ve rented this house and the only complaint I have is how hard it is to leave. Walking back into our own home after the most peaceful, perfect 3-day weekend felt like a letdown—because Sarah’s place is just that special. The house is beautifully maintained, surrounded by wildlife and nature, yet close enough to everything that you can get groceries delivered if needed. It’s the perfect balance of escape and convenience. We’re already looking forward to our next stay!

Great place and great host. It was perfect for my need.

Great place to stay away from the hustle and bustle of New Orleans, but close enough to travel back and forth. We really enjoyed the home and especially area next to the water. Jason was a great host.

I loved this space as it was easy to find, super easy to check into, Kaylan was very responsive as well as helpful. The home was clean and cozy. The beds were comfortable and soft. The front porch and back porch were so nice. The river being right across the street made an awesome view of the bridge. The atmosphere is serene and peaceful with people jogging and walking their dogs along the river. Everything was convenient and easy to get to. I will definitely stay here again.

The Purple Purch is extremely comfy with everything you need. The lake views are priceless and go on forever. We slept so good! Shannon & Aamie could not have been better hosts. So kind, thoughtful and flexible. Very attentive & responsive when we had a question. If you are looking for peace & serenity on the water away from hustle of downtown N’Orleans then this is your place. Morning coffee outside on screened deck overlooking the lake was everyone’s favorite. The huge sectional allowed all 6 of us space to chill out for a movie night! Absolutely recommend staying at this soul calming place on Lake Catherine! Just what we needed…..😍👏🙌

What a beautiful place to stay! Everything was exactly as stated. Only thing i would say is the no swimming recommendation. But I should have asked prior to booking. Otherwise what a delight!

Would definitely recommend a stay. We enjoyed our stay. Everything was just as described. Seth was very gracious.

David and Cassondra were very gracious and set the house up for a good time. My sons fished every morning and every evening. We caught crabs in the traps daily. Plenty of tackle and bait shops nearby. It was a 25 minute drive into downtown New Orleans. So the best of both worlds. The house was stocked with spices and condiments. Really enjoyed our stay and recommend it with 5 stars ⭐️

Garrett's place was fantastic, extremely high end but reasonably priced. The neighborhood was awesome, 5 minutes from the trolley stop, across the street from City Park for walks, and three blocks away from great restaurants, a grocery and liquor store. The house was clean and very modern from heated bathroom floors, lots of mood lighting, and music system and televisions throughout. It had everything we could have wanted and Garrett was easy and quick with communicating with us and gave us recommendations when we asked for them. Highly recommend staying here.

Mary’s place was very nice. She was very accommodating during our stay and responded quickly when we contacted her. The area was nice and close to restaurants and shopping areas as well as close to the lake.

Quiet location away from the busy French Quarter but easily accessible by street car. Close to a major street so some road noise audible in the living room and dining room. However, due to the shotgun style of house not much noise in the back bedrooms. Beds very comfortable, linens were soft and bathrooms were in excellent condition. Kitchen well stocked with all the amenities needed for a short stay. Appreciated the water bottles and soda in the fridge available on check in. Pool and hot tub were well maintained by hired pool service that came during our stay. Would return in the future.
