My family and our two dogs stayed and had a wonderful time! We were able to walk to dinner on Main Street and had a great time in the backyard. The fence is secure so we were able to comfortably let our dogs run around.
Lovely older home, remodeled with up to date finishes. The back yard is fully enclosed with a very secure privacy fence, our dogs loved it! The master bathroom is beautiful! Would definitely stay here again.

Stellar location and communication
Location is awesome! Cleanliness, quality of amenities, and overall condition of the property relative to the price could be improved. However, it is not overstating to say the responsiveness of the property owner outweighed all of that.

This is a great place to stay and the hosts were wonderful.
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!
Just a few blocks to downtown Grapevine! Wonderful layout with two “wings”. Master bath & bedroom on one side and two beds & bath on the other. Fenced yard is a major plus for our 2 puppies. Wine from the host was a lovely surprise. Double oven also a plus!
We had the pleasure of spending a week and a half in this wonderful vacation home. The house itself was very nice, but the lovingly designed garden was particularly magical. Numerous birds and squirrels playing almost all the time made the stay a true nature experience, which provided relaxation and joy.We would also like to emphasize the exceptionally fast response time of the landlord. A request from us was responded to immediately, and in the event of a force majeure incident - which was unpleasant for us as tenants as well as for the landlords - the commitment was particularly evident: Although we were only able to report it in the evening, action was taken that same evening and the situation was fully and optimally resolved by 7 a.m. the next morning. Once again, a big thank you for this!The entire exchange with the landlords was friendly, warm-hearted and personal - as were the many lovely details in the house, which rounded off the stay perfectly.We can recommend this vacation home without reservation.
Loved it. Kari was quick in answering any questions we had. After working through 10 meetings every day at the convention, our 3 team members enjoyed this comfy house to decompress, debrief, and disengage. It's super close to the Convention Center and all the downtown Grapevine coffee houses and restaurants, plus our last minute needs at CVS and the grocery store. Highly recommend. A tip: we pre-scheduled Lyft every morning and then booked a return on the fly to go back and forth to the Gaylord Texan saving some money on the 45 per day parking.
This cute little house is so close to Main Street and so convenient to restaurants and shopping. It was a girls trip and we have been friends for 50 years. We loved coming at Christmas time. The house was all decorated for Christmas.
I and my 2 sisters spent 3 nights at the Little Red House. It was so welcoming and so peaceful. It was convenient to downtown Grapevine which offers a great shopping experience and great dining..I would definitely rent this property again.
We rented this house for the weekend and were pleased with the location and the space inside. It was what we needed. Some of the art work on the walls was a bit strange but overall a good stay.
We came in for a wedding. The reception was at the marriott. Downtown was a quick walk and we hlwere there every night. We took the vintage train to yhe stockyard on fort worth. I doing it again we would uber there early and rake the train back so we had more than 2 hours.

About the host
Hosted by Kari Perkins
My husband and I love Grapevine. We love to travel but really prefer the personal touches of staying at a home. We have 2 short term rentals in the area and are always close by to help out any visitors - unless we are travelling ourselves. (Then we have a back up.) We moved out of the home in 2004 to be closer to my husband's work and to start the downsizing process. We moved to a larger home in 2018 as to accommodate family. It is all about family. We love Grapevine and all that it has to offer.
Why they chose this property
This property has history and the location is spectacular. Close to everything but not close enough that our driveway and street are packed with cars every weekend. The kitchen is great to cook in and the master bedroom skylights help with relaxation.
