About this property

Family Ski Getaway in the Berkshires

Perfect for anyone looking for easy access to the Berkshires’ top ski resorts, like Butternut, and Catamount.
This is one half of a riverfront duplex in a historic New England home.
Inside, you’ll find brand-new mattresses, a fully equipped kitchen, a pellet stove to relax by and indoor/outdoor cat, Studley, who is excited to meet you. 😺
This is a private home rather than a hotel or new build, and it’s best suited for guests who appreciate a warm, homey atmosphere in a historic setting.
The home is older with plenty of character and comfort. Brand new mattresses, a fully equipped kitchen and a pellet stove for those cold winter nights.

Marisa's place was cozy and well-decorated. We enjoyed staying there for New Years and it was a good distance to the local downtowns while being quietly tucked away by the river.It was unclear to our party that the outdoor cats on the property lived within the rental unit until we received our check-in message. Mentioning this in case anyone is in a similar situation!The rooms were slightly less clean than we would have liked, with dust and hair in the corners, but overall it was well-stocked and served our purposes!

Great location with nice space to hangout as a group - appreciated the music and games options. Comfortable space. Host was very responsive and checked in with us. Small bathroom for 4 people but nice big windows throughout the house for good light and great views. Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. .

The host was exceptional and so kind. The location was in close proximity to 3 quaint New England small towns whose downtowns had many restaurants and local shops to enjoy-Great Barrington (GB Eats for breakfast), Stockbridge (best shopping) and Lenox (exceptional dinner at Frankie’s Italian). The house looked updated on the outside but inside looked like early 1900s with a hint of Victorian influence. My only caution is for anyone with mobility issues as all 3 bedrooms and the only (very small) bathroom are on the second floor. The toilet sits low (below knee level) but a high step in is needed for the claw foot tub/shower. We stayed in mid Sept with highs in mid 70s and lows in the 50’s so it was reasonably comfortable even without AC by leaving windows open at night and using the fans provided during the day.

Great location and nice size house for a family of 5. We had a couple hiccups but the host responded quickly and handled things promptly.
