A true period home extremely well equipped

The house appeared a bit rustic from the outside but upon entering it revealed itself as a wonderful depiction of 50’s, 60’s life with great updates. Everything was provided and then some. You have just entered a familiar spot with a warm invitation. The entertainment element was very rewarding.

Excellent Stay

This property is perfect. Been vacationing in the Berkshires twice a year for the past ten years and have rented multiple homes. This one is at the top of our list. Clean, roomy, and had everything we needed. I'd highly recommend it.

Feels like a home

We loved the atmosphere of this place, clearly feeling the deep sense of home that comes through via the art work, the music, the pictures and stories of family members. The screened porch was lovely for meals.

Perfect cozy Berkshires spot

We so enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. There was plenty of room for the whole family, lot's of great toys and games, and gorgeous scenery from every window. We even saw a bobcat! The weather was very cold and wet while we were visiting but the house stayed warm in this cozy house.

Wonderful and cozy winter stay

This is a fantastic house nestled in th Berkshires with easy access to hiking and snow sports at Butternut, with a grocery store in Lee within 15 minutes. The house is very well equipped with everything you need for daily living. The beds are comfortable and the towels are plush. The house warms up quickly and stays warm even in deep winter. A couple of things to watch out for include no T-Mobile cellular reception right at the house (but there is WiFi at the house) and steep and somewhat uneven stairs from the main floor up to the bedrooms (can be challenging for small children or mobility impaired). Best of all, the owners share small pieces of their family history in the memorabilia displayed throughout the house and it's a real treat to learn about the family's connection to jazz music in America. We had a wonderful stay here and will plan to return on our next trip to the Berkshires.

Lovely home in the Berkshires

The home has a very comfortable layout for a family , with a large kitchen-dining area, spacious family room with game area, reading alcove with window seats, and seating area around the fireplace. Location is a short walk to Lake Garfield, a quick drive to several hikes, and also to restaurants, shops, and museums in Great Barrington, Lee. and Stockbridge.

Relaxing stay in the berkshires

The house was charming and comfortable. We enjoyed the charm of the older house, though I think updating the stove and oven is a good idea. We spent a lot of time in the family room area enjoying board games. There was A lovely, spacious screened in porch which we enjoyed, though it would benefit from lighting so you can enjoy it at night. The location was perfect for exploring small surrounding towns and hiking trails. We also saw 2 bears during our weekend there in the front and back yards. Overall a great stay for adults.

Family vacation

The house is exactly as described and then some. We enjoyed our days and evenings on the screened in porch, the beach was a short walk away (no dogs allowed which was sad), but still it was beautiful. We loved the character and the decor of the house. The gardens/landscape is beautiful! Only down side is it is tick season!! Our dog came in with a tick or 2 every time we took him out- and some on ourselves, but tis the season. Thank you for letting us enjoy your home!!
