Wow….simply a wonderful property. We rented this property to attend a college graduation and house Family members. Cortney, the owner, was so courteous and accommodating. We held a reception on the premises and all the guests were equally amazed. Cortney had fresh flowers adorning the rooms and even had shortbread cookies that were so delicious. There is an elevated deck with a fire pit and grill I simply can’t think of enough positive adjectives to describe everything. Also so many places to dine in the vicinity. Highly trcommend this property

My wife, my mother-in-law and I stayed two nights over the Holiday. It was a surprise gift for them. Getting to the Little Red Cat was an easy drive to the South Side of Pittsburgh. The entrance is tastefully decorated with a wall beside the stairs displaying candy jars and colorful artwork. We stopped at the first floor and peeked in each bedroom. Each is spacious, beautifully decorated, and has its own distinct character. Hardwood floors, thick rugs, and antiques placed here and there made us feel we were staying in an interior decorator's home. Nothing can really prepare you for the walk upstairs to the third floor. The whole floor opens to a large kitchen with woodwork, cabinetry and features from a time gone by. The island sits four adults and is great for that first sip of coffee that you will be taking out to the balcony seating area. The kitchen's cabinets, repurposed from the bakery that was originally part of the building, had us nodding together “yes, this is an unbelievable kitchen”. From the kitchen is the comfy/cozy living room with a large couch, chair, ottoman, big fireplace and television. Behind the couch sits a lovely table and chairs. We put it to use for dinners and a heated game of Scrabble. Cortney checked in before and during our stay. The only issue we had was having to leave at the end of our stay. It was hard to say goodbye to the The Little Red Cat.

We loved red cat and felt right at home from the moment we opened the front door. it is beautifully decorated and had so many little touches that were above and beyond -- beautiful flowers, whiskey ice cubes... Also, having the best coffee shop downstairs made it even better! Courtney was very responsive to every question and so helpful with suggestions.
