We very much enjoyed our experience and will return if we are even in New Orleans again. We've already sent one or two other people your way and they too loved it. We always try to support independent and locally owned businesses, and we seek out good clean healthy food which is sometimes hard to find. So thank you for doing that you do! You are MOST welcome!

Thank you. Our dialect has always been of interest to the world. We have been a melting pot of cultures for centuries. Our dialect is considered "broken" French, African, Spanish leading to the Queen's English. Once again thank you for sharing your fabulous experiences.

The reason we didn't stay there was we were told it wasn't a very safe area and the 8' fence and razor wire and armed guards there at night didn't make us feel good about it. Maybe you didn't notice anything cause you were only there one night. We stayed up by the lake at http://www.pontchartrainlanding.com/ and it was only $39-49 if I recall right. They offered a free daily shuttle into the quarter and because we stayed a week and did other things like swamp tours, plantations, garden district, etc - it was a good base for it. We were parked right on the water and was very safe/secure. We talked to one couple that had been at the one you stayed at and moved to ours cause they heard 4 gun shots the first night and bugged out. thanks Karen – I’m a photographer also and was my second trip there.

Here's a recap: Yup, we stayed at the French Quarter RV Resort, and it was very nice. It was very well taken care of, and had a pool and hot tub area. The check-in area was more on par with a hotel. But the location was definitely the best thing about it. I could walk to Bourbon Street in 10 minutes. The only downside was the price. It's $69 for a normal night, and the night we were there for the Jazz fest, it was $120. We usually dont stay at places that pricy, but I had never been to New Orleans before and it was just so convenient. Here's the link to their site: http://www.fqrv.com Hope you have fun there!
