Classic Berkshires cottage in sun-drenched meadow
About this house rental
Situated in South Egremont, this charming house for $531 per night is a great option for your next trip. Summary: Gorgeous country escape set on 2 pastoral acres of a lovely meadow in the Taconic Range. Enjoy mountain biking at Catamount (a 5 minute drive), hiking waterfalls at Bash Bish Falls, or relaxing in the comfortable Adirondack chairs by the fire pit in the meadow. The Space: We aim to create a relaxing, enjoyable stay at the Chalet, so we've taken care of most of the things you'll need, including fresh linens and towels from Brooklinen, basic toiletries, basic kitchen equipment, and some pantry staples (e.g. olive oil, salt, etc.). If you're planning a big meal, or need something more specific, please check the House Guide, which includes more information, helpful tips, and general guidelines for guests. Accessibility: There are 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath on the first floor. The other 2 bedrooms and bath are upstairs. There are steps within the house to get from the kitchen/dining area into the living area and there are 2 steps to enter the house. Guest Access: We provide electronic access to the house with a personal guest code. You'll receive the code 24 hours prior to checkin, though your code will only activate at check-in. The Neighborhood: The Berkshires are a stunning mountain region and Great Barrington is at the nexus of the Berkshires and the Hudson Valley, so gourmet grocers and large supermarkets are nearby, as well as outstanding restaurants, coffee and tea shops, shopping, yoga, and more. The perfect home base for hiking and camping at Mount Washington State Forest, the Chalet is also conveniently located for skiing, arts and cultural institutions, and more. You'll find plenty of things to do. We've assembled a list of our favorites in the House Guide, and we're happy to answer additional questions by text. Getting Around: You'll need a car to get here and get around and the drive will be beautiful! Since cell service can be inconsistent in the country, we recommend that you download the region's online maps to your phone before your trip. Other Things to Note: WHAT TO PREPARE You'll find plenty of things to do during your stay. We recommend making reservations in advance, where appropriate, especially for popular restaurants, museums, and venues. We've assembled a list of our favorites in the House Guide, and we're happy to answer additional questions by text.

If we find evidence of smoking, we will charge a $500 fee. • Parties + Gatherings: due to local community rules and guidelines set by the owner, parties and gatherings with guests in excess of the maximum guest count are prohibited at this property. We cannot accommodate weddings, or any events with outdoor music, catering, excessive alcohol, etc. Any party or gathering is grounds for immediate termination of your stay and removal from the property with no refund. • Cleaning: we are pleased to arrange housekeeping during your stay, upon request, and at your cost. For longer stays, we require professional cleaning by our housekeepers every 2 weeks; guests can arrange and pay for this cleaning with the manager. Regardless of length of stay, we reserve the right to assess fines for excessive cleaning, trash removal, and property damage. • Rental Agreement: to ensure a safe and comfortable stay, the owners of this property require that all guests sign a Rental Agreement that clearly sets forth the terms and conditions of your stay.

Pets: • The Posto Property Team loves animals but the owner of this property does not permit pets. Note: This house has a bedroom and bathroom on the main level. Nature & What to pack: We urge guests to pay close attention when enjoying nature, weather can change quickly and wild animals can be surprising. Because temperatures in the mountains can fluctuate widely, even in the height of summer, we recommend packing sweaters and light, cold-weather gear just in case. Depending on the activities you plan, we recommend packing hiking, running, swimming, horseback riding, and/or running gear. We also recommend that guests consider spraying clothes with Permethrin when walking outside, to help avoid ticks. In winter we recommend guests pack several layers of warm clothing and ensure that their vehicles are ready for potential snowfall. For other clothing, most venues around are very casual. Interaction with Guests: You'll have open access to the house, screened porch, and expansive grassy yard. Since we value privacy on our own travels, we generally give guests lots of space. But we're nearby and happy to help. Check out our house book for tips.

Beautiful home in an excellent location
We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home, which is in easy driving distance to several charming towns. The backyard was huge and the views were so pretty. The swing on the massive old tree and the ping pong table in the basement only added to the fun we had on our trip.

The house was clean, bright, beautifully furnished and decorated. We had an amazing time. The only suggestion is to put some sort of tape on the slate steps in the living room. Was a little dangerous. Other then that I wouldn’t he’s to rent it again. The bear was an added bonus!!

The house was perfect for our family. Location was ideal with about a 10 minute drive either way to Catamount or Butternut. We hiked around BashBish Falls and Great Barrington was fun to explore as well.
Great backyard for playing, nice kitchen, and jacuzzi tub was a big hit after a day of skiing.
We only wish we had brought our bikes as the weather was warm and the area would be great for biking.
