You couldn't ask for a better place

Review Submitted: July 21, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Little Red is an outstanding place to stay. I found it extremely clean, well furnished and with a gorgeous view of the Shenandoah River.

It was easy to get to and easy to get to where ever I wanted to go.

Barbara was very quick to reply to my questions and very helpful.

I will be back again.

Great stay at Little Red! Enjoy the River!

M'sFan Seattle Washington
Review Submitted: June 11, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Little Red is beautiful, tastefully decorated, and very clean. The location on the river was wonderful! We had great thunder and lightning storms, as well as many birds we do not have in Seattle. A week is not enough time for the area-- I'm sure we will return.

The property was very clean and well maintained, however, the deck was a bit slick in the wet, and may need some cleaning. Also, I felt the kitchen appliances could use some updating, primarily the microwave.

Overall, a lovely stay--highly recommended--great hosts--can't go wrong!

The Ultimate!

do not have a nickname Polk County, Florida
Review Submitted: June 11, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Our first visit to "Little Red" was just what we both needed. The house is very clean and well kept. Lots of room for family inside and outside. The deck was wonderful and being able to open the windows and listen to the river was so very relaxing!

The town of Front Royal is just right and close to our family who live within 15 minutes of "Little Red'.

Everything is convenient and we felt right at home.

Perfect Getaway

Cynda New Smyrna Beach, Fl, USA
Review Submitted: July 6, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
This home is wonderful. The interior exceeds what is shown in the pictures. Nicely decorated, it reminds me of a picture out of Cottage Living Magazine. The den has a brick woodburning fireplace that was perfect on the cool evenings. The home is under large trees and there are so many birds it is wonderful to have the windows open and listen to them. The view is beautiful. The river makes a relaxing sound and there have been geese and deer across the river that I have enjoyed watching. The deck is very large with a table and a gas grill for outdoor dining. Kitchen is well equipped and everything was very clean. The description of the amenities listed on the site is accurate. It feels secluded, but is only a few miles outside of the town of Front Royal where there is a good selection of resturants and grocery stores. The Mill located on Main street was a very good local resturant - casual with something for everyone on the menu and good service. Out near the interstate there is Applebees, TGI Fridays, and Crackerbarrel. There are also all of the fast food resturants to choose from. Of the grocery stores I liked Martins the most. They have a large selection of prepared food and a lot of meats that are ready to go on the grill with no prep work. The home is located less than an hour from the National Park and Luray Caverns. I would recommend Luray Caverns it was amazing. There are plenty of historical sites nearby and we were able to enjoy the Wine and Craft Festival in Front Royal during our stay. Owners were wonderful to deal with. I would recommend this home to anyone.
