Stay w/ Art at Garden District Gem: Neville House
Surround yourself with art! Neville House is an immersive experience integrating art & travel under one roof. On the National Register of Historic Places (c. 1905), NH provides a serene setting located in the live-oak lined Monroe Garden District (think Southern charm with a European vibe!) where restaurants, shops, city parks + museums are walkable or an easy drive by car. Original artwork by emerging local/regional artists exhibited throughout (inquire to host for details on available works). The space Hi, I'm Rebekah, your old house obsessed host! I'm an avid traveler and collector which has inspired me to envision & create this art collective known as Neville House. My goal is to offer engaging opportunities for our guests to become further educated about and enamored with works of art created by local and regional artists providing a 'stay with art' experience like no other. As a Northeast Louisiana native, I've been in love with Neville House and the story behind it since I was a little girl when my mom would take me on day trips to explore the [Monroe] Garden District. NH is a true example of Southern beauty with its white washed clap board cypress siding and double porches beckoning you to come and stay for a while. NH is a two-story neoclassical home featuring historic architectural details (original 120+ year old hardwood floors and windows throughout!). It is lovingly decorated with an eclectic mix of antique and modern furniture & furnishings designed to provide guests with an artistic emergence in the local culture. The interior is full of curated original works of art & antiquities which are on rotation from local & regional artists & makers designed to provide an unforgettable experience. Up to 4 people can stay in this exceptional "art gallery" centrally located in the Monroe Garden District. You will enjoy all the modern comforts (Wi-Fi, smart TVs, Keurig, fully stocked coffee bar, equipped kitchen) while being immersed in a unique place. On the main floor, there are two gathering areas just off the entry foyer: a study and a living room which opens to the dining room creating a great room open concept space. Down a short hallway from the dining room is the kitchen offering direct access to the back porch with old school picnic table and adjacent conversation + fire pit space with four Adirondack chairs for when you decide to chill. Accommodations (upstairs) are comprised of two bedrooms: one with king platform bed with adjoining sitting room and one with a queen bed. There is an oversized bathroom/dressing room and open-air gallery hall (thanks to the screen door!) that opens directly on to an exterior balcony offering birds-eye views flanked by majestic magnolias (THE spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails). On the Grounds: Neville House is a proud supporter of the Northeast Louisiana (NELA) public art initiative, Herons on the Bayou, a program connecting talented artists with the local community. As of 2021, 87 heron sculptures (6-feet in scale) are spread throughout Ouachita Parish, each one having its own unique, beautiful design. We encourage you to hop in the car and go on a "Heron Hunt" to visit as many as you can (download the digital Herons on the Bayou map or use the printed one in your welcome box and be sure to tag #heronsonthebayou!). On the front lawn at Neville House (right on the corner of Hudson & Third), you will discover one of the most recent heron public art installations unlike any other heron works on the Heron Hunt: La Garza, a colorfully beaded work of art created by local artist Mario Mata in keeping with the folk art and handcraft tradition of Mexico's Huichol people. Make a memory and snap a pic with La Garza to share to social!! Guest access On site (free) parking. For added convenience, there are two locally-owned restaurants (The Okaloosa and Jo-El's) less than a one block walk up the street + a locally-owned hair salon (Ash Salon) & cigar shop (Omerta Cigar Co.) directly across the street. Please note that Hudson Lane is a one way street headed west and when exiting parking area. Other things to note This property is not wheelchair accessible and the only bathroom is upstairs.
