Beautiful Private Cottage
The property was beautiful! We did not get to stay as long as we wanted but we will definitely be coming back to this little cottage. It was very clean and decorated well! The host was immediately responsive but we should note that there was absolutely no cellphone service which made communicating with guests a little difficult.

Cozy place
Lovely little cabin, beautifully renovated and spotless! My only concern is the steps to the property are steep, (we are in our 70s). If your fit, go for it! We loved it!

A well situated getaway
A great stay in this well situated getaway. The owners were helpful and communicative, and the house was easy driving distance to Great Barrington, Hillsdale and Lenox. The unit is open and airy and decorated in a very pet friendly way. Would stay again without hesitation.

Lovely oasis in the woods
This oasis in the woods is a perfect week long or weekend respite. It is very clean and comfortable with all the necessary amenities. The location is quiet and peaceful with chirping birds and a nearby babbling brook. Easy access to nearby country towns for groceries, restaurants or browsing. Hiking trails are abundant. WiFi was robust enough for me to connect remotely with work when needed. The owner is pleasant, responsive and accommodating. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for an escape to rejuvenate and boost their well-being.
