    Cevin B from Campobello, SC recommends this vacation rental

    My family loved the the Lit red house in gloucester. The location was great, the house met all of our needs. We enjoyed the outside table and chairs where we grilled and ate dinner outside. The information booklet we found very helpful. One small bathroom was the only small inconvienence, but we had no problem dealing with it. The park accross the street was nice. We would definately recommend the rental to other families.

      Little Red House is located in a wonderful spot right off of Stage Fort Park with swimming, a playground, ice cream, and The Cupboard Restaurant. The house has all the amenities and is comfortable for a small group. Thank you for your positive review and please feel free to contact us for your vacation needs in the future. Sincerely, AVH Staff

      Little Red House is great, lots of room and very well equipped. The proximity to Stage Fort Park with the Cupboard Restaurant and Ice Cream Window make it an ideal dinner or after dinner place to visit. We are very pleased you enjoyed your stay and be sure to come back and visit us real soon! AVH staff

    Nancy S from Waterford, NY recommends this vacation rental

    We've been coming to Gloucester for 8 years and this is the first time we've ever rented a house! What a way to go! We'll never do it differently! The house was perfect. Immaculate! The three bedrooms were just perfect for our family of 4, each kid had their own room, and king-size bed in the master-bedroom was a treat! The back yard was great for them to climb on the rocks, play in the woods, and take wonderful pictures. Just a short walk to Stage Fort park for ice-cream each night! Even though we had to drive to get to Good-Harbor Beach, unless you're staying right on that beach, you'd have to drive anyway...and the cost-comparison to those properties out-weighed the benefit in our opinion. It was so convenient to have a full kitchen...not that we cooked dinners, but for the fridge, microwave, snacks at night, breakfast in the morning, it really came in handy. Having the family room w/the dvd player was great as we brought a bunch of DVD's to watch, and the extra tv in the bed-room also came in handy. Would totally recomend this place to anyone (although w/the only bathroom being on the 2nd floor, probably not the best choice for someone w/trouble climbing stairs)...we'll be back next year for sure! We'd be happy to receive emails from anyone interested in discussing our experience.

    Nancy S from Waterford, NY recommends this vacation rental

    This is our second year at the Little Red House and we were just as pleased as last year. House is clean and roomy, perfect for our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids ages 12 & 13) and an additional adult-friend we invited to join us this year. The back-yard

    is fabulous for the kids to run around in as well as perfect picture-taking opportunities. It rained a few of the days we were there, so it was great to have a whole house to spread out in and relax rather than a tiny hotel room. The only down-side would be

    the fact that there is only one bathroom, and it's on the 2nd floor. Also, more hooks in the bathroom would be appreciated as it was difficult to hang towels, wet suits, bathrobes, etc. Having the washer/dryer was definetly a plus!

    My husband, my girls (4.5 yrs and 1.5 yrs) had
    a wonderful time at the Little Red House. The house and amenities were just right for us, and the location was ideal.
    Just down the street in the park, we were able to take the girls to the playground, buy wonderful fried clams, and my daughter
    got a different flavour of ice cream every day!

    The house was all we had hoped for. The organisation was helpfull and we felt as if we were the center of their business. We had a slight problem and it was solved as if they lived the problem themselves.

    We have and will suggest the place to friends and family.

    We were missing small things, quickly replaced. The fridge was extremely loud the whole time we were there until we unpacked it at the end! It was quiet then, go figure. Other than small things, it's beautiful there, great location, would stay again.
