Below average

Home and property not well maintained. Ladder to sleeping loft very steep and difficult for older guests. No reading lights. Lawn not cut for weeks. Kitchen was well equipped. Plenty of hot water for showers. Tv and streaming and internet all good. Property manager and repair man for kitchen stove responsive and pleasant. Got stove repaired quickly. This would be fine for a younger couple. Good hiking nearby and fun local eateries. 15 minutes to Great Barrington. 45 minutes to Tanglewood.

Spiritual relaxation

Beautiful wrap-around porch. Views were wonderful. Had to use the pullout sofa, because the stairs to the loft was basically a stepladder and for us seniors, was a no go. It does need a microwave. We gave it a four star overall, but for a younger couple would be a five.

A gem of a cabin near Tanglewood!

It was a pleasure to find this gem of a cabin available for a night so we could attend a concert at Tanglewood, despite living out of state. The location was lovely, convenient and quiet; the cabin was impeccably appointed (thanks for the fresh flowers in every room and bottle of Riesling!) and very clean with every possible amenity; and the hosts were communicative, friendly and helpful. Overall, this was an idyllic mix of quaint/cute/unique and function/comfort/ease. I will absolutely seek out this rental again next time I’m traveling to the area. Thank you to our stellar hosts!!

Basking in the Berkshires

The location and beauty of the surroundings are exquisite, everything I wanted for a pastoral getaway. The house's exterior was lovely, and the giant porch was spacious and comfortable. The bedroom(s) were another matter. The upstairs loft--inadequately described in the property description--requires a steep ascent and descent into a cute and cozy sleeping nook but requires the nubility of a 25-year-old yoga practitioner to otherwise move around. I would rate the access to the loft through its trapdoor a serious safety risk which should be addressed immediately by the owner. The sofa bed in the downstairs is unsleepable if you unfold it and sleep on the mattress. The frame's bar is uncomfortably against your back all night. I slept on the couch unfolded. Lastly, many places throughout the property could stand some repair and painting.

Road trip to New England

This was our first stop on a long journey from VA to ME, traveling with 2 dogs. It was perfect, the dogs were safe with lots of freedom to roam. What a beautiful, peaceful village and sweet little cottage.

Great getaway!

We booked the trip for a quick fall getaway to see the foliage in the Berkshires, and we couldn't have been more satisfied. The cottage was a lovely and cozy home base.

This little spot was absolutely perfect. Beautiful land, with beautiful views (complete with a cow heard grazing in the distance)....it was bliss :-) Strong recommendation for anyone looking for simple peace and quiet, and and escape from the hustle/bustle of city living.

Cozy getaway

This was an adorable little cabin in a beautiful town in the Berkshires. The cabin was perfect for me and my boyfriend for the weekend: it had a beautiful yard, deck, and inside everything we needed. I will note that the bed was up in a lofted space which wasn’t an issue for us, but for anyone with injuries or disability it would be very difficult to get up there. We loved the cabin and found it very cozy and natural.

Rustic cabin with lovely view.

Note that bedroom is a loft and accessible only by steep staircase. Not recommended for families with small children. Enjoyed the deck and the fields around. Fireflies at night! Washer/dryer also nice to have. Great hikes in the area; the dog loved her walks.

Lovely country view

The location of this very rustic cabin is great despite the fact that it is on the main road with a lovely meadow view on the side and in back. Unfortunately the loft bedroom was much too small with steep stairs to be safe for two ( young:) seniors so we had to sleep on a very uncomfortable sofa bed( but we were certainly glad there was one on the cabin! ). We did not cook so I can’t address the kitchen and did appreciate the bottle of red wine!

Rest and Relaxation

We have 2 dogs and it is hard to find somewhere that we can bring them both on vacation. They were both welcomed and loved running around the huge yard. We enjoyed the wrap around porch and the cozy, homey feeling of the cottage. The host, James, answered very promptly when we had questions. We would definately like to go back again.

Wonderful escape

This charming cabin was well equipped with kitchen stuff, board games, and the bed is very comfortable. The skylights allowed the overnight breezes in and the quiet was decadent ambiance. Appreciated the bottle of wine, though we did not imbibe, and the gallon of water for coffee making and drinking. Zero issues with sulfur - only a brief whiff with the first cleaning of the dishes, night one, then never again (3 nights/4days). The porch is spectacular and where I spent a lot of time; would absolutely stay again!

August in the Berkshire’s

We successfully escaped the summer heat in Charleston SC for one month! The location was ideal with so many hiking trails, and surprisingly good restaurants within walking distance. Enjoyed having a general store and cafe bakery right down the road. All our needs were met and expectations exceeded.

Snug South Berkshire cabin

This spot is great! In a small Berkshire town (new Marlborough), close to Great Barrington and other western MA attractions. Quiet, clean and comfortable, with nice grounds around the cabin. The only consideration is that anyone who plans to use the sleeping loft should be ok with a fairly steep staircase -- not a problem for us. Highly recomended.
