Longue Vue House and Gardens

Not only blown away by the Gardens, House and History but also by the Staff! I recently had a corporate retreat at Longue Vue and it was above and beyond what we imagined. The staff made our large event seem effortless and accommodated all of our needs- they thought of things we did not even think of! I cannot express enough how wonderful the staff was to work with from start to finish. I am thrilled to see where the Executive Director is taking Longue Vue and the team she has built. I 100% recommend working with Longue Vue and having your next event there!

My husband and I had a few minutes to spare. We didn't go inside the house we just enjoyed the gardens. From what we saw it was very a very peaceful, tranquil place. If you are in the area and have a fifteen to a half hour to spare I would definitely visit. Also seemed like the kind of place to enjoy a cup of joe and a good book next to the lighthouse. Enjoy!!

Almost a private tour. My wife and I were the only guests today, and we got a few extras. Our tour guide was excellent. Take the time to visit. You will enjoy it. The house has original air-conditioning from the 30s.

I had a contracted photo shoot for the authors in my anthology at Longue Vue House and Gardens in New Orleans for a magazine doing an article about us. The contract and payment were done and settled earlier this week. When we arrived to the location with the photographer, we were met in the hallway by the Executive Director who immediately informed up they were closed. I explained to her we had a contracted photo shoot and my authors drove in from out of state. Then she told us they had an event at 10 am and we couldn't be in the house. I explained that we knew that already and were prepared to take pictures under covered areas outside per our agreement with their sales manager. Then she proceeded to tell us we could not shoot there, ask us how much did we pay and informed one of the authors that her husband could not be inside. She said we could just go and they will refund my money within 24 hours. The executive director said we should have been informed by the sales manager, I asked for her, but she said that she was gone and would not be back for 45 minutes. I proceeded to call the sales manager who I confirmed with the day before about where we needed to go and who to check in with, however she did not answer. Not only was me and the guest embarrassed in front of staff and others who were in the house, the ED was confrontational, rude and dismissive. In addition, we had to find another location and pay more money to be able to shoot. I would never recommend this place apparently contracts mean nothing!
