The Little Red House

Our little red house is within walking distance to historic downtown Grapevine (the Christmas Capital of Texas) as well as within 8 minutes to the airport. From the large enclosed backyard, you can hear the music playing at the festivals throughout the year as well as sit and enjoy the squirrels antics. Over the last three years, this original cotton field home has been completely renovated and welcomes all visitors - even furry ones
The back yard is next to be renovated. It is secure and large. Enjoy.

Cute cottage
We were very pleased with our stay at the Little Red House. It was nicely decorated for Christmas and centrally located to the Historic district. We loved that it was pet friendly. Our dogs enjoyed running in the fence backyard. We definitely will return in the future!

Great Location & Communication
I stayed at Kari's property with my husband and 9 1/2 year old dog in early November. Kari was very easy to communicate with and was always quick to respond to any inquiry. We loved the gesture of the welcome bottles of wine she left and enjoyed those to unwind after our very long drive from Illinois. The location of this house was excellent, being very close to downtown Grapevine and Arlington, where we went to see an NFL game. We also appreciated the large completely fenced in backyard that made it safe to let our dog off leash to potty and sniff and enjoy the fresh air (thank you for providing a pooper scooper, so thoughtful!). The house itself was suitable and was fine for our short stay, but does lack the comfort/tidiness needed for long-term rentals/vacations. Overall, we were satisfied with our stay and appreciated being welcomed.

I was in town for a few weeks for work and this house made the stay more like home. Very accommodating hosts. Clean. Fun art all over. Conveniently located. Big yard for the dogs to run around in. It was a very good experience and I recommend it to anyone.

Cute place
This place was really nice on first sight…looked clean . It would have been nice to know about the flooring and the steps up and down in the master bedroom. A few of the armchair armrests were very soiled. The worst part was as we were departing, we were looking for some ziplock bags in the kitchen, and so we were looking through cupboards and drawers and there was so many crumbs in the drawers, so many spills of food and drink that could have easily been wiped clean, a mishmash of junk in most of the drawers. Worst was cockroach urine and poop everywhere in the kitchen drawers and cupboards. Also, when we arrived, there was only 2 rolls of toilet paper and no dish soap. We purchased some dish soap. We contacted the owners they were very nice and helpful and brought us both items that night. Also on arrival the kitchen had a bad smell. We looked underneath the trashcan liner and there was garbage in the bottom of the trashcan. Smelled so bad, we needed to keep it outside for the remainder of our stay.

Cute and great location!
Rooms were smaller than they appear in the pics. If you will be cooking meals for a large family (6 or more) in the kitchen, bring extra pots and pans. Dining room table only sits 4 but there is a window seat that was helpful nearby for more people. Fold out air mattress couch wouldn't hold air. Bed in master room is very soft so if you need a firm bed don't pick that one. Head boards were very wobbly on all beds. Location was excellent. If coming around Christmas time dont even attempt to drive closer to town, just walk. Its only about 5 to 7 minutes. Overall cute place and decorated nicely for Christmas in every room.

Christmas in Grapevine
House was old, but nice. Plenty of room to spread out. Liked that dogs were allowed, our’s enjoyed the big fenced in backyard and chasing squirrels. House could have used more lighting in kitchen, but was OK. H My niece and her husband came over for dinner 2X. Because there were 6 of us we had to improvise and eat in living room, as dining room only seats 3. Had to bring in addition hair when the 4 of us staying had meals by ourselves. One word of caution, the master bedroom/bath/ laundry roomsare on 3 different levels. Step down into laundry room. Step down again to master bedroom and step up to go into master bath. Can be a tripping hazard and once I stubbed my toe really badly going from laundry room back into additional living area. A plus was good communication with owner and easy check in/check our procedure. Do wish they’d upgrade the toilet paper, really, really thin.

Great Location
We booked this house for the number of bedrooms/bathrooms and it’s location to attend a family funeral. It’s an older home but furnished comfortably. Great air conditioning. Kari responded timely to my questions. We felt the beds were not comfortable and none of us slept well. The listing did not communicate the numerous floor levels in the master bedroom and bathroom. The full kitchen was great to have as well as a comfortable living area. This house would be great for a family gathering.

Cute, clean and convenient
We rented the property for my daughter and her large family of 7 to visit us in Grapevine. She thought it was very clean and cute, and loved the big backyard. The kids' ages are 15, 13, 9, 7 and 5. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep comfortably. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes. The only comment is that, though there were just enough towels, they were one spill away from not having enough. We would recommend this property for a week or weekend getaway. It is very walkable to downtown Grapevine and all the attractions there.
