Fantastic house, used as skiing base
We have stayed with this owner several times and he always creates a wonderful vacation. His property is beautiful and well stocked/prepared. It works very well for our family and gives us a perfect base for skiing several mountains. Will be back next year, and the one after and the one after...

Country Estate Life
Our stay at Morning Face was wonderful. The villa is a spectacular, sprawling historical estate, and one feels transported to an other era of elegance. That said it was completely comfortable at the same time - livable, not precious. Our kids were able to explore, get lost, and we weren't worried about them damaging things (too much ;)). We loved spending time in the large rambling library with the fire going, poking through the impressive collection of books, exploring the property, watching the birds through the kitchen windows. It was heavenly, and I imagine even more impressive in summer when the pool is open! Todd was extremely courteous, helpful, as was the on-property manager, Enrique. Looking forward to our next stay!

A rare gem
We had a fabulous stay in a wonderfully comfortable mountain retreat overflowing with character. Todd is the consummate host, and Morning Face offered everything that our family could have wished for on our New Year’s Berkshires getaway. I couldn’t imagine a better way to have rung in 2021!
