Stay In A Charming New Orleans Mansion With Its Own Private Library
Enjoy historic and mysterious New Orleans to the fullest at the Parks-Bowman Mansion where you can stay in a private library boasting wall-to-wall bookshelves and a luxurious atmosphere.
It’s hard not to stumble across the sublime and unique in New Orleans. But by booking a stay at the Parks-Bowman Mansion you’re guaranteed a special experience.
A book lover's dreams can come true in this beautifully furnished space. Though the sights and sounds of New Orleans are right outside, you might be tempted to stay in and read all day!
This mansion is an Airbnb owned and operated by a documentary filmmaker and a novelist. The couple has traveled for decades and furnished this home with the needs and unique amenities they know travelers appreciate.
Guests have their own private bedroom, bathroom, and balcony as well as access to the house's common spaces all of which are decorated with the Parks-Bowman couple's art collection.
Other rooms in the mansion are also for rent, but be warned, one is noted to be one of the most haunted spaces in New Orleans. Visitors have reported seeing a young girl in a long yellow dress or feeling someone touching them while staying in what is aptly titled the Haunted Bedroom.
In the home's backyard you can enjoy the in-ground pool, a savior on a hot Louisiana day. There are also front and back porches on the property just begging for a glass of wine in the evening.
In addition to the glamour and ghost stories the mansion has to offer, it features the necessary amenities for a modern traveler: Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and an in-room mini fridge for tasty leftovers.
