The house is beautiful, we LOVED the kitchen and the master bedroom but the whole house was really nice! The house is on a really nice piece of property as well and has a lot of great amenities and was very well equipped. The owner was extremely approachable and responsive to our needs. We would love to go back in the future!

Beauty & Comfort in the Berkshires
We are frequent VRBO users and this was one of our most comfortable and easy stays. The property and house are beautiful and located on a very pretty cul de sac. House is very convenient to downtown Great Barrington shops and restaurants. House is very well equipped with kitchen and bathroom supplies. Lots of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy in the multiple family room / den areas. Our host, Rob, was extremely responsive and helpful. Would definitely return to this house for a family or friend vacation!

Exceeded expectations
We had 7 adults and 3 children for our stay and the house was bigger and better than the listing made it out to be. There was plenty of gear for infants (2 crib/pack n plays), high chair, baby swing, etc. even some scooters in the garage. We had a lovely time. The only negative is that two out of the 3 kids got ticks on them while playing in the backyard but that’s not the owners fault.

Peaceful stay in Great Barrington
We stayed at the property for a girls weekend - 10 women in their 40s. The kitchen was enormous and great for cooking, feeding a crowd, and hanging out. Three separate living room areas gave us plenty of room for relaxing, playing some games, and reading. Close to adorable downtown Great Barrington and convenient to grocery stores and good restaurants. We’d absolutely stay at this property again.

Nice Stay in Great Barrington
Very nice, clean and well stocked house.We didn't have the best weather, so we did a lot of movies and appreciated the big screen. Easy location to Great Barrington and other Berskshire towns. A nice stay. ( Didn't give it 5 stars, because a hot tub or something would have been great)

Nice Thanksgiving weekend
We were four adults and one dog staying at this property. We have family in the Great Barrington area and are familiar with the town, and this home was a perfect location to get into town and to go visiting for the holiday. The house is also very close to several hiking trails. The house itself is very spacious, with multiple levels that allowed everyone to have their own space if needed. Our little city dog loved the huge fenced in back yard. It was a chilly weekend and the house was nice and warm for my elderly parents, and the little cousins who came to visit loved the basement game room. Would stay in this home again when visiting Great Barrington.

Week in GB
My husband and I joined our daughter and her husband with our three dogs for a relaxing week. It’s a beautiful, spacious home, extremely comfortable and had all the amenities we wanted. The fenced backyard was perfect for the pups. It’s on a quiet cul de sac, nice for daily walks, close to Great Barrington, a large grocery store and local attractions. Rob the owner was there in minutes when we had some trouble getting in upon our arrival, and also kindly helped me locate something I’d left behind. We look forward to returning here again, it was perfect for our family!

Terrific home
We have stayed in many homes in the Berkshires, this was the best. There is lots of space. The home is very well equipped with laundry supplies and the like. The windows look out on green trees and the lawn. You feel like you are in the woods but it is a short drive to downtown Great Barrington. Taft farm is a few minutes away with great pies and produce. The owner was very helpful and responsive.

Great Great Barrington Ski Getaway
In addition to proximity to things to do, to us a great vacation home has two things: great rooms to congregate and enough space for people to spread out and get away from each other. This house has a large modern kitchen, living room, and three dens - a small one right off the kitchen and then two large ones on the main level and basement -- each with a big screen TV connected to streaming services. So there were plenty of times during our stay we we would be all together and other when we (especially the kids) were all spread out doing our own things. House is minutes from Butternut and Catamount mountains, stocked with all the little things you want/need (cleaning supplies/toys/games/cocoa), and the owner was responsive, friendly, and helpful. Bonus on the large two car garage to keep our cars out of the winter weather. Literally not a single complaint, highly recommended, would be super happy to return someday.

Wonderful winter getaway
Our adult family of 4 and pups had a marvelous time at this terrific property. The interior was cozy and chic with lots of space and light. The outdoor space was perfect for a dog to romp safely, and everything throughout was very well thought out and well stocked. We loved the local hiking and ease of getting to the center of Great Barrington. Thank you - even better than expected! We will surely be back!

Modern Cottage Minutes from Downtown Great Barrington
We totally enjoyed our three week stay in August. The modern master bedroom suite and kitchen were amazing, with two story windows in each bringing the outside beauty in. It was incredible to be able to look out every window and see green, and we spent a lot of time on the spacious deck. Our grandchildren loved the game room. The landlord Rob was very friendly, helpful with area attractions, and was immediately available to answer any questions about the house.
