This was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway to the Berkshires. The location is easy to find and close to the town. Check in was a breeze. The home is roomy and well appointed. We enjoyed the books and art. The yard is spacious and lovely and the area very quiet. The hosts are helpful and communication is excellent!

This place was perfect for a family weekend while we attended a wedding. It was spotlessly clean, comfortable and lovely and the hosts were very kind and accommodating. Loved the back porch and quiet setting. Thanks for a restful weekend.

We had high expectations of this property given the 5-star reviews it received. It's a well-stocked, large home and the little shed is fantastic. The location is convenient to most places.
However, our stay was suboptimal, to put it kindly. When we arrived, the heat on the lower level was not working. The weather outside was around 20F and we had young children. It seemed like the power had gone out before we arrived as the time was wrong on the microwave/stove/etc. We called the property owners who arranged for the heating company to come out the next day. Not a great start --- we had to build a fire, which ended up making the lower floor extremely smokey since the fireplace wasn't enclosed. Rusty water had dripped through the masterbath vents onto the floor. The shower curtains were nasty and the master tub had a ring around it - clearly not cleaned prior to our arrival. The vents were filthy, multiple rooms had cobwebs and spiders on the ceiling, and the sofa/carpets had pet hairs on them. The floors were so dirty that the socks we wore indoors were stained quickly. We developed horrible dust allergies due to the dirt and unclean vents, and had to resort to antihistamines to make our trip bearable. The irony in all of this is that this place charges a hefty cleaning fee and requires insurance to book a visit. The owner stated that the place was cleaned after the last group of visitors left, which she claimed was a week prior to our arrival. I find it very strange that they didn't even bother to walk-through prior to our arrival, or notice on their remote temperature app that the place was frigid. This is a lovely place on the surface, but dirty and dangerous if you have allergies/young children. The owners provided a refund for the first night; I wish I could have my time back as I would have stayed at a place that wasn't a health hazard and was properly maintained. Stay here at your own risk. Unfortunately VRBO doesn't allow for picture uploads in reviews, but the VRBO team were grossed out by the pictures we sent them. I hope the owners clean this place properly so that folks here in the future don't put their health at risk.

My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The access to Stockbridge was easy and the acccomodations were perfect for our group of 6. We would all highly recommended Alison and her property to all considering a stay in the Berkshires.

The house and grounds are lovely - so charming! It was also very clean, well organized and stocked, and conveniently located. The owner, Alison, was terrific to communicate with and couldn't have been kinder. We look forward to staying at this wonderful property in the future!

Enjoyed our stay in Alison's very comfortable home. Backyard was large and fire pit a winner. Great place for a family to stay with lots of room. Overall location is good, close to Stockbridge and other quaint towns.

Alison, our host, was so accommodating and such a pleasure to work with. The house was lovely, cozy, comfortable and charming with all the amenities anyone could ask for. I gave this place a five-star rating and I would have gone higher if I could have. We were close to everyplace we wanted to see, information about the surroundings was readily available with recommendations from our host also. We only wish we could have stayed longer; we had an incredible time and thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated your hospitality! Your home is awesome; thank you for everything!

The home was very comfortable. Located on a very quiet & beautiful piece of property that was still very convenient to all the region has to offer (museums, galleries, restaurants, etc.). It was a perfect place for friends to spend time together and enjoy all the Berkshires region has to offer.

We had a lovely weekend staying at Alison’s home. The secluded site and back yard were perfect for unplugging from the city. We cooked a lot in the well appointed kitchen. We look forward to returning for a winter visit.

Snowy Seclusion
Our family of three enjoyed the home and it’s wonderful location. The home had everything we needed, fully stocked kitchen where all you need to supply is the food. Our toddler enjoyed the toys and books- we needn’t bring a thing for our week long stay other than our booster seat. The she shed was a major perk! My husband used it for zoom interviews and work during the day, my daughter enjoyed “special treat” Disney plus time after her nap! Vacation for all. We would definitely recommend this home and look forward to staying here again soon!

Holiday with family
My husband rented this property to have a common place to celebrate Christmas (early). Only a 2 hour drive from Boston. We did a lot of home cooking in their WELL STOCKED kitchen, but also enjoyed a few local restaurants. This property is great for any season.. Also has great internet which allowed for some online classes to continue. Thanks to our hosts, who were easy to contact when needed, for a great stay.

And a GREAT Time Was Had by ALL!
The house, she-shed/man-cave, and grounds are much nicer than the listing description & photos. The house included everything you could possibly need. The hosts’ extraordinary attention to detail resulted in a fabulous getaway experience.
We spent 3 nights at this house in October 2021. Our group consisted of 8 adults and our Labrador Retriever. We look forward to another stay at this property.

My friends and I had just the loveliest long weekend at Alison’s property. The house accurately meets the listing photos and descriptions and the kitchen was well furnished for us to do some cooking. There is maybe nothing better than a cozy morning on this porch watching your city dog sniff around a real backyard. Alison also gave incredibly helpful instructions and set very clear expectations. If I am back in the Berkshires I know where I’m staying!

A Delightful Retreat
This is a private, well-maintained, well-stocked retreat in a central Berkshires location. The compact house has excellent indoor and outdoor spaces, and a bonus separate shed with it's own wi-fi, TV, heat and AC that can act as an office or a retreat. We loved the backyard, the firepit, the master bedroom deck and the sound of the Housatonic in the background.

Fabulous Berkshires home away from home
Six adults enjoyed this great house in the Berkshires. We were close to so many special venues…Chesterwood, the Mount, Rockwell Museum, Willuamstown and The Clark Museum, North Adams and MassMOCA…all highly recommended. And then we enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen and so many places to sit and catch up with old friends. Great house with very helpful and accommodating owners!

Relaxing Setting
The cottage is well secluded giving privacy and has amazing property with well manicured lawn. The house is well appointed with everything you could need. It is a 5 minute drive into town so anything need is close by and is the perfect home base for days trips into other parts of the Berkshires. The owners are very friendly and attentive.

Unquestionably the best vacation house on VRBO!
We stayed for the entire month of August and could not have been happier. Our host, Alison, was always only a text click away, and responded to any question within minutes. The house is situated on four beautiful acres, and the few rainy days we had were delightful because we could sit on the porch and just enjoy the quiet peace. There was central air conditioning (rare in the Berkshires) and the extra bedrooms were perfect for the few guests we had from time to time. The kitchen was extraordinarily well-equipped: Louis the XVI could have entertained his entire court with all the plates, silverware and glasses! The house was super clean, the bedding very comfortable and the location was ideal to all the cultural venues. And the shed! We cannot forget the airconditioned shed, with a desk, printer, wifi, couch and room to exercise. There were days I had to search for Holly, given her attachment to the shed!
All in all, the perfect vacation home. We can only hope that we can return next summer!
Alan and Holly F.

Christmas Getaway
Our family enjoyed this cozy cottage for our Christmas vacation. We enjoyed playing in the large yard with our grandson -- making snow people, sledding and roasting marshmallows around the outdoor firepit.
