Charming and Relaxing 4br Farmhouse for Group Getaway

Step Back in Time at Our Rustic 4BR/2.5BA Farmhouse Getaway

Looking for a peaceful escape into the countryside? Our spacious, well-loved 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath farmhouse offers an authentic rural retreat just steps from the Housatonic River and the historic West Cornwall Covered Bridge. This is not a modern hotel — it’s a 140-year-old farmhouse with all the charm that comes with it.

Perfect for those who appreciate character and country living, the home sleeps up to 8 guests and offers a unique mix of old-fashioned coziness and natural beauty.

Please note: This is a historic home in a country setting — there may be bugs, wildlife nearby, and limited water pressure when multiple fixtures are in use (we’re on a well). If you're looking for sleek and polished, this might not be the place for you.

✨ What You’ll Love:

Steps from the Housatonic River & West Cornwall Covered Bridge

Screened-in porch, front porch, and upper deck for outdoor relaxation

Great access to hiking, fishing, antique stores, wineries, and farm stands

A peaceful place to disconnect, recharge, and experience true country life

Amenities:
✔ 4 Bedrooms with vintage charm
✔ Two kitchens (main one fully equipped; second one good for yoga or overflow cooking)
✔ Spacious common areas with lots of seating
✔ Screened-in porch & outdoor fire pit
✔ High-Speed Wi-Fi & Smart TV
✔ Free parking across the street for up to 3 cars
✔ Washer/Dryer (note: water pressure is impacted if too many appliances run at once)

🏠 The House:
This home has large windows that bring in natural light, and multiple places to gather — including a front porch perfect for morning coffee, and a backyard with space for lawn games.

Expect older fixtures, and a little “country character.” This isn’t a luxury retreat, but something much rarer: a true farmhouse experience.

Kitchens:

Main Kitchen (1st Floor): Fully stocked for cooking

Second Kitchen (2nd Floor): Functional but sparsely stocked, great light for stretching or yoga

Bedrooms:

1 Full (1st Floor)

1 Queen + 1 Full (2nd Floor)

1 King with Ensuite (3rd Floor Master)

Optional: 2 twin mattresses in lounge for extra sleeping space

Bathrooms:

Ensuite with King Bedroom (3rd Floor)

Full bath off kitchen (1st Floor)

Half bath upstairs (2nd Floor)

🛁 About the Water:
We are on a private well system — there's plenty of hot water, but if you shower while someone’s doing laundry or dishes, the pressure may drop. Please plan accordingly.

Other Things to Note:

Yes, you may hear creaks and the occasional critter — it’s the country!

Not updated or modern — it’s rustic and simple.

No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property

Small dogs under 35 lbs allowed with prior approval and strict rules

No parties or events

Ready to Unplug?
Whether you're looking to explore the natural surroundings or just relax on the porch with a book and some fresh air, this home invites you to slow down and enjoy a different pace of life.

Ask about off-season discounts for longer weekday stays!

Let us know if you have any questions — we're happy to help!

Ski Weekend

My family rented the house for the weekend. Was just as advertised in pictures/details. Lots of space, comfortable bedrooms and fully equipped kitchen made for a great weekend! Only issue (not complaint) was the showers were sensitive and I highly recommend only using one faucet, toilet or shower at a time and you will be fine, but for an older house it was to be expected. We skied at Mohawk (8 min) and Butternut (40 min) both easy, scenic drives. Would absolutly go back! Thank you!

Lovely setting, BUT

This is great for fit younger adults and older children but it proved daunting and dangerous for this active, nonetheless frail, elderly person. Both tub-shower arrangements were inaccessible (too high) for me due to my physical limitations. There are no railings up the front steps. That would have been OK except for the gap between the steps that "grabbed" my cane and nearly sent me tumbling. 20 years ago--even 10 years ago--this would have gone unnoticed by me. Also not recommended for fearless young children unless constantly supervised. That said, the place is cheerful, comfortable & cozy. I just wouldn't encourage frail elderly people to stay here.

We love our house in CT and want to share with you

Why they chose this property

We live in the city and need a relaxing spot in the country near some of our favorite hiking and friends

What makes this property unique

This was the farmstead for the entire area and has a lot of historic significance. I also love all of the woodwork and historical details. Walking through the bridge into town is my favorite.
