About this property

The Berkshires and all its attractions are at your doorstep in this newly renovated, well-insulated 1900 Victorian, situated on a quiet residential street in downtown Great Barrington. A 5-minute stroll takes you to the heart of Main Street, while short drives take to you all the area's attractions: Butternut and Catamount ski centers, Tanglewood, the Appalachian Trail, Rockwell Museum, beautiful Lake Mansfield less than a mile away, and the multitude of mountain lakes in our region.

The eclectic look and feel of my home reflects my twenty years as a boutique innkeeper and restaurateur in Bali, as well as being the daughter of a New York art dealer. You'll rest well on the comfy mattresses, 100% percale cotton bedding, duvets, and both down and microfiber pillows and enjoy fine Turkish cotton towels. I've stocked the kitchen with the high-quality cookware, equipment, and utensils (think All-Clad, Lodge, Cuisinart, Vitamix, Nespresso, Microplane etc) that help produce a great meal. I also have my personal spice collection that I leave for guests to use. The spacious deck behind the house has a gas grill, and dining table with umbrella for 6-8 people.

And I never like having to check out at as early as 10 am, so please settle in and sleep in. Check out time is 2 pm.

Great spot in a cute town for a getaway!

The property was perfect for our needs as we wanted to be able to walk everywhere and enjoy all the downtown has to offer. The host was wonderful and very patient with some changing family demands and she was very responsive. I would suggest that Great Barrington is a better spot to experience the Berkshires than some Of The other adorable little Towns.

Beautiful home, fantastic location, great host!

Our stay was wonderful -- perfect for a group of adults with varying interests. First, the house is truly beautiful and unique. The owner lived in Bali for over 20 years, and she is attuned to everything a renter could want, from a well equipped chef's kitchen to luxurious bedding and towels. The artwork around the house is interesting and sets up a relaxing, warm, and sophisticated vibe. The 3 bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, and there is plenty of closet and drawer space. The lighting is great too. The house has a great flow with a comfortable living room and dining room downstairs. At one point, we had extended family over for brunch, and the house was comfortable with 10 people!! The backyard has a nice deck with chairs, table, and new grill. Great Barrington has so many wonderful restaurants, shops, and nearby grocery stores that we didn't lack for anything. In addition to hiking and swimming in nearby Lake Mansfield, we attended Tanglewood, Jacobs Pillow, the Rockwell museum, and the Edith Wharton estate. There is so much else do do in the Berkshires . . . we can't wait to return. The house is a very short walk into town. It's on a residential street with friendly neighbors, Some of the houses on the street could use a bit of TLC, but this house was terrific. I loved sitting on the front porch in the morning drinking my coffee. I highly recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Karen Waddell

I've been coming to Gt Barrington since I was a kid and always dreamed of owning a home here, which I made happen this year. I live in New York City and make my home available when I'm not enjoying it myself.

Why they chose this property

This is my weekend getaway, in-town sanctuary. I love to walk into town (literally 3 minutes to Main Street Gt. Barrington), and then come back and flop on the super comfy couch or prepare a meal. I'm a food professional, so I've stocked an intelligent kitchen in which you'll be able to make good meals. The dining room is an homage to Indonesia where I lived for 28 years running a hospitality and restaurant company that I founded.

What makes this property unique

I worked with a close designer friend to put together a comfortable and cheerful home. The insulation is very good and we just installed a full HVAC system and dehumidifier.
