About this property

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.

The little red house

Check-in was so easy and the host stayed in contact and recommended places to visit and eat. It does have a kitchen which we took full advantage of for breakfasts mainly and late night cravings. It does have guest wifi available. If grapevine decides to keep short term rentals i definitely will be booking with this host again for the Christmas time.

Great for families with pets

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.

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.

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!

Perfect location!

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!

About the host

Hosted by Kari Perkins

Host profile image
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.
