The North American Cottage is a located in the courtyard with direct access to our  garden.   The cottage pre-dates the main house and was moved to the property from a nearby plantation to be used as the construction foreman's quarters while the house was being built.  Later uses included a Garsonaire and as a milk house  It was designed as a quiet, secluded get-a-way and  to accommodate our physically challenged friends.  It has a small mini-bar with refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker.  

In contrast to the main house, the cottage celebrates the "New World".  It is furnished with classic American Shaker style furnishings and James J. Audubon lithographs adorn the walls.  The queen size bed is outfitted with 400 count cotton bedding and is piled high with an assortment of pillows to pamper you.    The  private porch  over looks the garden and beckons you to sit, relax and enjoy the atmosphere after a hard day of sightseeing in the French Quarter.      

The bathroom is accessed through antique cypress French doors with frosted glass inserts and the dark, rich cypress walls evoke an era gone by.  It is equipped with a two person, walk-in / roll-in shower .
