About this house rental
Welcome to Cush Haven: Your 30+ Day Uptown Escape in New Orleans!
Say hello to Cush Haven, your cushy shotgun retreat nestled in the heart of Uptown—the crown jewel of New Orleans neighborhoods (and I’ll stand by that claim ‘til the streetcars stop running). This isn’t a fly-by-night rental; it’s your launchpad for 30 days or more of living like a true NOLA insider. Whether you’re chasing the city’s wild spirit, working remotely with flair, or just vibing, Cush Haven delivers comfort, charm, and a location so prime it practically parades itself.
Step out your door, and you’re 4 blocks from the iconic St. Charles streetcar—its vintage clatter ready to roll you toward downtown or the Garden District in no time. Hungry for more? Stroll just 1 block to Magazine Street, where eateries and boutiques line up like Mardi Gras floats. Dig into oysters at the legendary Casamento’s, savor the modern buzz of Superior Seafood, or grab a killer coffee at Hey Cafe—plus a slew of other spots are steps away, waiting to steal your heart (and appetite).
Mardi Gras fan? You’re in the sweet spot. Cush Haven sits a mere block from all the Uptown parades—close enough to catch beads without breaking a sweat, yet tucked just off the chaos. It’s the ultimate perch for soaking in New Orleans’ most electric season, turning your stay into a front-row seat for the party of a lifetime.
Need to stock up? Rouse’s Market, a local go-to, is a quick few blocks away—perfect for loading the fridge with groceries, drinks, or whatever keeps you cozy at the Haven. Inside, you’ll find a space that’s as easygoing as Uptown itself, ideal for kicking back after a day of exploring or tapping away at your laptop with that NOLA swagger in the background.
Uptown’s got it all: shady streets, historic vibes, and a laid-back cool that’s pure New Orleans. You’re minutes from Magazine and St. Charles, plugged into the city’s best eats, shops, and soul. Book your 30+ day stay at Cush Haven, and see why Uptown isn’t just a neighborhood—it’s a way of life. Trust me, this spot won’t let you down.

It was a lovely location and vintage house with modern touches. Weather was perfect.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2023
The house itself was fine. It has been renovated, but it appears to be a DIY job and was a bit sloppy in a few places, as you might expect for a rental. The furniture was acceptable, but not top notch. The house was clean, and the location can't be beat. You are within walking distance of all the best spots along Magazine St. The owner was friendly and communicative. Normally I would give this 5 Stars and move on, but...
This house/listing seems to be a victim of the current controversy surrounding short-term rentals in New Orleans. The property is a "double shotgun." According to the City's STR registry, only one of the two units is permitted as of March 2023. This has caused some controversy on the block.
We hadn't even made it to the porch before a neighbor ran over to us, told us we were staying at an "illegal rental" and talked at us for 5 minutes about the owner and how STRs are bad for the neighborhood. On day 2, a different neighbor stopped us and told us much the same thing. There's obviously a lot of resentment about this rental existing in this nice neighborhood. Anyone staying here should be aware that you will be viewed as unwelcome by the neighbors, though they won't phrase it that way when they approach you. And they will definitely approach you.
I'm lowering my review from 5 stars to 4 because some of the neighborhood reaction falls on the owner. Hopefully they can get the permitting situation cleared up and the neighbors chill out, in which case we'd stay here again.

Our family just enjoyed a long weekend at this property! The owner was extremely kind and promptly answered all questions. The property was extremely clean and within walking distance of the streetcar, cafes, restaurants and amazing ice cream. We loved every moment of our stay and can’t wait to come back.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Feb 2022
The location is really wonderful. The neighborhood is lovely and there is so much stuff within walking distance (Magazine St. and Prytania St. both have great shops/cafes/restaurants). The house is very spacious and the bathroom and kitchen are nicely renovated. The main issue is that the beds are really uncomfortable. We tried both queen beds, one is too hard and one is too soft/very noisy when you get in or out of bed. Overall the house could use a bit of spiffing up (peeling walls/ceiling, not much in the way of New Orleans decor) but the host was very quick to respond to all of our questions and everything worked well (laundry, shower, etc.). If you aren't particular with your beds, then I'd recommend this house for sure.
