What a fabulous cottage. The host is very communicative and it was the cleanest rental I have ever stayed out. It’s a perfect 3 bedroom with excellent amenities and a private back yard and deck. It’s the perfect place to rest and relax with many adventures nearby.

Comfortable home with great amenities

We had a wonderful time at this home. The house abuts a working barn and we watched the horses and goats while having morning coffee. Also the lake right across the road is beautiful and we enjoyed kayaking there. Perfect for a family of 4!

Summer in the Berkshires - What a delight!

We just completed our second stay in this property and it was exactly as described. The cottage is roomy, clean, comfortable, located on a lake (we swam several times), and near other Berkshire towns and Upstate NY towns. We went to farmer's markets, biked, and hiked. I highly recommend it for couples and families.

Cozy house in the woods

Very cozy and clean house in the beautiful environment. Short drive to both Hudson and Great Barrington. The only negative was no heating during the night and the extra soft mattress, which was bas for my back. I imagine staying here in spring and summer is really enjoyable.

Did the trick

We had to stay in the area for a family wedding and this did the trick. Comfortable enough. Beautiful lake on property which made it extra special. Our little girls enjoying rolling down the big hill by the water :)

Great winter break vacation in Berkshires!

This property more than met our expectations. It was clean, spacious, and comfortable. We were able to access two different areas for skiing and snowboarding while also enjoying downtime in the cottage. Great Barrington was a 30-minute drive and fun for shopping. I would recommend this property and would stay again any time of year. Thank you, Jenifer, for creating such a welcoming and comfortable cottage.

Sitting on the dock... and nothing but clear skies.

This property was exactly what we were looking for, offering both peace and privacy. We were greeted by the sounds of goats and birds chirping, creating a tranquil atmosphere. A few feet away, across a dirt road, we enjoyed a leisurely walk through the grassy hillside to the dock by the lake. The tennis courts were just a convenient quarter-mile ride down the road, where we also discovered a well-equipped gym with all the exercise equipment one could ever need. It all combined to make this a fantastic weekend getaway destination.

The Good: the host was responsive and brought coffee filters and answered questions promptly via text. The home was warm during a chilly November weekend.The Not-so-Good: the listing was not totally accurate - the deck furniture had presumably been stored for the season and we unfortunately were looking forward to using it. Also the rowboat started taking on water shortly after we paddled from shore, leaving us to frantically row back a heavy, water-logged boat on what would have been a very serene outing. Also, the online listing and in-home guide varied with instructions such as check-out time and amenities (see boat comment above).

Disappointing

For a home charging over $300 per night, I expected much better bathrooms and a sink faucet that more than a dribble comes out. The cheap plastic shower with no grab bar and just placed in the corner of the main bathroom was less than ideal to use. Refrigerator needs to be replaced. Rusty and ancient. Some towels had large holes in them. Not a four star property by any means!! Also needs bushes cut along the house.

Peaceful October Getaway

Home was immaculate and floor plan well thought out for a party of four adult friends. Lovely comfortable furniture, quiet neighborhood. The porches were perfect for relaxing, grilling and enjoying the fall foliage and goat farm next door. A few issues need attention, however. Back porch steps were broken upon our arrival, making it quite precarious unloading our car as we are in our 80s. We couldn't get dishwasher to work so had to wash the few dishes there by hand with no drying rack. We like to cook most meals at home and were disappointed in lack of small amenities to make that easier such as a cookie sheet or two, spatula, decent can opener, newer saute pans. Also, back right stove burner needs attention - flame kept going out while burner was on. The code to access boathouse didn't work for us. If those minor things are addressed, we'd stay here again in a minute!

Must see the sunrise

Nice clean home only a short walk to a lake/pond with incredible sunrise over the water. Not sure if it’s 365 days but we stayed Labor Day weekend. Very quiet location that’s a short drive to neighboring towns.
