We spent a comfortable weekend in this cheery, newly renovated home. It was thoughtfully equipped with everything we might need in the kitchen and some lovely soap, shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom. I loved having breakfast out on the deck.
We really appreciated being able to bring our dog! The big back lawn was lovely for him, although lack of fencing between it and the busy road meant we kept him on leash.
We hope to visit again!

Very cute little house. I'm very tall and was worried about the low ceilings, but they didn't bother me, I think because the house felt very light-filled. My dog loved the huge yard, and it was great that they allow pets. The guest info said they plan to add a bedroom and bath upstairs and expand the deck (currently the second bedroom only has a twin, though main bedroom is a king). Nice furnishings and overall guest experience (bag of local coffee waiting on the counter, terrific towels, etc). Was surprised it had central air. It has clearly been recently updated and seems to be owned by the property management co. I was grateful to find it on short notice during the busy season at a great price. Very good location too, close to Great Barrington. House is a little close to the road but traffic noise wasn't very noticeable.
