Awesome time!!
Had a great time at the Creation Station! My husband and daughter spent tons of time on the stage, our nightly walks through the lit up enchanted forest were amazing, and the evening hot tub was so cool to do! My 2 teens even had a great time jumping on the trampoline and sledding!

I came with members of my organization for a Holiday Dinner and was completely blown away by its charm. Exactly the atmosphere i was hoping for. The host John was just as welcoming as his place. If you looking for a cabin like atmosphere this place is your find. Thanks John

The 5-star reviews don’t lie
The Creation Station such a unique and wonderful place to stay. The owner couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. The sound system and projector TV are awesome! Beds are super comfortable TempurPedic mattresses. It has a 2-person jacuzzi! Place is super clean. Even if you aren’t a band, this is a charming spot in Western Mass.

Had a blast! Put this on your bucket list!
We had so much fun! John was one of the best hosts that I have ever had. The 'Creation Station' was much better in realmtime than in the pictures. I didn't expect for the place to have absolutely everything that we needed to play music and do karaoke. We only had to bring instruments. John was beyond responsive for our every need. The whole process from arrival to check out was one of the most stress free laid back experiences that I have had on VBRO. Thank you John. VBRO should hire you to give other VBRO property owners lessons on how to be a host. Can't wait to come back! Tina M.

Incredible!
John has outdone himself creating such a welcoming, magical space. The lights through the woods, the huge deck, and the open, comfortable room filled with instruments are only a few highlights. I’ve already recommended four different friends take the time to stay here. There were only two of us, but I could see this place would be completely perfect for a family or group. It was certainly perfect for us. Thank you, John!

We had a great time staying at this unique property with lots of fun things to do for the kids. Projector screen movie night was a big hit along with the lighted trail in the woods. John, the home owner, was so kind and responsive.

We're already planning our return trip
Our group of 5 guys had a great night at John's and wish we could have stayed a second night. It was such a cool and comfortable place to hang out. We put some 70s music videos on Youtube on the projector screen and listened through the awesome surround sound system and had a great time. All 5 beds, even the futons, were comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom were clean and had everything we needed. The house was nice and warm from the fireplace. We should have known, because it says it in the listing (and common sense) that only the drums and amps are included and there is only one guitar in the house and it's in rough shape. We're kicking ourselves that we didn't bring our own guitars and that's why we're planning to come back soon.

Too much fun!
My partner and kids spent one night here when we came to visit the Basketball Hall of Fame, but we all wished we could have stayed longer! So many things to do! We had a mini concert, watched a movie on the big screen, went sledding, walked in the magical lights in the woods, and just read by the fire. If you are a grown-up and haven't been on a trampoline since you were young, you MUST try it. Highly recommend for a fun getaway or quiet retreat.

Laid Back And Livable
We had the pleasure of staying at this location for two nights and it was delightfully relaxing and low key. There is plenty of room. My family visited with us one evening and no one felt the least bit crowded. The wood burning pellet stove kept us warm and toasty. John, the owner, made it a breeze to check in and out and he made himself available at any time we may have needed assistance with anything. We are looking forward to staying here in the future!

So beautiful and different than what you are used to. John is the best! I can't wait to come back to Mass. and stay again. The woods behind the house has thousands of Christmas lights illuminating a path you can walk on. Garden is magical. Stage, instruments and mics are available. There was even kids toys, VHS movies, board games, alexa, and a huge movie screen in here! Beds were comfortable and warm. Kids loved the peacock and chickens in the coop. We are breakfast outside in the garden every chance we had. Thank you John and family. We had a wonderful time.

Rustic
This was a great rustic setting if you were thinking about a modern camping trip. I live on a farm. Wasn't impressed with the "finished" insides of the barn. It had plywood floors that had definite "soft' spots as you walked around. Most of the ceiling was exposed insulation (new). Said it had 7 beds and could sleep 10. We looked all over for any "hidden" beds. There were 4 - very small - barely considered full size - very old. Luckily there were 4 of us so we each had our own bed. We were only there from about 9-10pm to 5am each night. So just interested in comfortable sleeping arrangements. Beautiful interesting decorations throughout the barn. Good kitchen & bath.

Creative Eclectic Space
We came here with a group of boys for a sporting event. It was the perfect space to wind down after a day on the field. The space is great for a close knit group as the sleeping spaces are in one large room. It is a funky place with lots of character! Loved the grounds and waking to the sounds of peacocks. I would imagine this rental to be perfect for musicians and music lovers alike.

Must Go Location
Just as the title reads, this is a must go. This place is a nice little seclusion that is 5 minutes from the closest town. Whether you’re hanging out, wanting to explore a new town, or rent out the place for a show this place allows you to do anything you want. It has enough beds to sleep a large group of people comfortably. If you’re looking for a place to go I highly recommend this property. Great owners, great location, and it was a great time. Our group loved it so much that the second we walked in we said we were coming back.
