The Cabin is very cozy! Hosts were great with communication, the property is scenic and close to UMass and other Pioneer Valley attractions, would definitely stay there again!
Very comfortable and perfect location for our cycling and hiking vacation to the area. Betsy was very responsive and accommodating. We’ll definitely be back!
Thank you, James! We greatly appreciate your recognition and we are pleased you enjoyed your stay.
Best wishes for a great summer and fall season.

Sorry you allow only 5 stars. Hostess, host, and place first rate. A quiet respite a few miles from bustling Amherst comfortable enough to live in. Our only laments are: a/ we stayed only one night and b/ there were only 6 cider donuts on the kitchen table! Just lovely!
This is a perfect quiet space close to so many things to see and do in the Amherst area. Betsy is a great host and the property is perfect for a quiet stay. We very much enjoyed our visit and look forward to a future stay.

The cozy cabin was ideal for our short stay in Amherst. 10 minutes from the college, but still remote. Pool was a great relief from the heat of the day. Definitely will stay here again.

Thank you, Martin, for choosing our Cozy Cabin for your stay. It was a pleasure meeting you and your son.
I am pleased you had the opportunity to relax at the pool in our peaceful neighborhood. I agree it is very convenient to have that short drive to downtown.
Enjoy the remainder of your summer! We look forward to your next visit.

Betsy and Jim were very personable host who live on site. The property was filled with flowers and fruit trees. It was great to have mini splits to cool the space. The bed was very comfortable. We also had bikes that we could store in their garage and appreciated that. Betsy treated us with a gift of cider donuts from the area.

Thank you, Tyy. Your review is very much appreciated. We look forward to your next visit!
The property was lovely. The host was friendly and helpful. I loved the sweet little touches. There were donuts and orange juice. The host provided coffee and everything to brew it. The pool was lovely after a hot day spent outside. Very clean. I’d definitely go back.

Thank you so much, Shannon. I’m really glad you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the little touches—we love making guests feel welcomed and comfortable. I am pleased that you took the opportunity to unwind in the pool after your long, hot day at the lacrosse fields.
You were a wonderful guest, and I’d be delighted to host you again anytime.

Super friendly hosts - great space and refreshing pool!
Easy check-in, good local recommendations, very close to Treehouse Brewery and the pool couldn't have been more appreciated after a sweaty day on the course. The hosts were very friendly and helpful - they provided us with local doughnuts and spring water. A peaceful and clean property, would return!

Lynn and husband are wonderful guests, pleasant and courteous. They were good communicators, followed house rules and left the space neat and tidy.
We invite them to book with us anytime and recommend them to all hosts.
This was a lovely place just a short distance away from the bustle of campus life. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet and cozy amenities and the warm hospitality of our hosts. We look forward to returning!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Amherst. The rental was clean and in a great location. Our hosts were friendly and we were greeted with a tasty donuts. We would highly recommend this rental and hope to stay there again.
We stayed with Betsy for the weekend of Green River Fest and it was absolutely perfect. She is a lovely host, very responsive, and helped us with check-in even though we arrived late in the evening. I wish we were able to use the pool, but we just didn't have time! The house is on a beautiful property surrounded by gardens and although is attached to the main house, still feels very private.

My girlfriend and I had a fantastic long weekend at this property. The pool house was quite homely and spacious for two people. Everything was clean and provided for (cooking utensils, towels, etc). The pool itself was immaculate despite the bugs. Betsy and Jim were wonderful hosts. Very attentive but made sure we had our privacy. We will definitely return at our next opportunity. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.
We had never been to New England before and are, now, wondering what took us so long! The cabin is beautiful, peaceful, and well maintained. The hosts are delightful and accommodating! We made beautiful memories this week! Thank You Betsy and James!
We very much enjoyed the peace and quiet of this location, as well as the well-stocked kitchen and kind gestures (such as the bag of cider donuts on arrival along with some cold bottled water.) Heather was easy to communicate with and Betsy was wonderfully attentive and responsive. We highly recommend this cute little pool house, perhaps especially for a couple.
Our week-long stay in late June (2025) was perfect in every respect. The apartment, including the bed, is comfortable; and the kitchen is well furnished. But even with all of this, the best part was the outdoor space--the roomy deck with a large table, four chairs and an umbrella; the amazing clean and inviting swimming pool; the colorful, extensive, and carefully-tended flower gardens; the manicured lawns; and a large bird-filled forest behind the house. All of this--especially the generous and attentive hospitality of the on-site hosts--served as a balm for weary travelers from the most urban of settings (Brooklyn, NY). We plan to return next year at this time.
We came to visit UMass Amherst and had the most wonderful time at the cozy cabin. The accommodations were so comfortable! The host gave great directions to the property and even greeted us when we arrived. She also dropped off delicious cider donuts at our door in the morning. The Robert Frost Trail is very close to the cabin. We enjoyed seeing wild turkeys, deer and lots of birds. The cabin has everything you need to stay in and cook or just a short drive into downtown Amherst for restaurants and the Emily Dickinson Museum . I’m not sure if my daughter will pick UMass but I want to return to the cozy cabin!
