Ideal New Orleans Location

Bayou St. John B & B is only 5 minutes walk to The Fairgrounds (the second oldest race track in America and home to the world famous New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival - A.K.A. JAZZ FEST), several of the city's most popular restaurants (Lola's, Gabrielle, Cafe Degas), the famous electric streetcar line, an above ground cemeterey, City Park, the Botanical Gardens and the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA). For links to interesting attractions and restaurants near our accommodations, click here.

The opportunities to simply stroll, bicycle or canoe beneath ancient moss-covered oaks or through the interesting residential neighborhoods surrounding the bed and breakfast are countless. Four golf courses, a golf driving range, 14 tennis courts, an olympic running track, a childrens entertainment center, a 2 mile miniature railroad and the infamous Dueling Oaks (where southern gentleman settled their differences with swords and pistols) are all nearby. During Mardi Gras, several parades pass just a pleasant walk up the bayou...

New Orleans: It All Started Here

When the French explorer Bienville came to the New World in 1699 to establish a settlement on the Mississippi River, he sailed into Lake Pontchartrain and up Bayou Saint John. Landing just steps from our B & B, Bienville followed the "portage" favored by the local indian tribes (now Bayou Road). This soon became the main route to the French Quarter as the Mississippi River's current made passage upriver difficult to impossible. During Spanish Rule of Louisiana, the Customs House, where sea going vessels unloaded their cargo, was just 2 houses down (it's now a private home).
