  • “The architecture and aesthetic of the house was perfectly mid-century modern! We loved it. The house was spacious and clean with beautiful views out every window. It was quiet and cozy at night. We looked forward to returning to our own sanctuary every afternoon/evening and appreciated being able to park in the garage. Having woods, ponds, and mountains to hike right behind the house made our stay very special, especially with the fall colors blooming. Wanting to travel north and south in the Berkshires made the location convenient, and the free admission to the Hancock Shaker Village was much appreciated. Of course, we also loved the provided cider and cider donuts from Hilltop Orchard; we went back there for more during our visit! The host and maintenance and cleaning crews did a great job with everything. The house was fully stocked with everything we could have needed and more. This was honestly the best overall airbnb experience we have had.”

  • “I can't say enough good things about this host and this unique property. Wish I could give it 11 stars. My husband prefers hotels, but I convinced him to give this special spot a try. He thanked me every day for it! For the same cost as two hotel rooms, the three of us had plenty of space, a well-equipped kitchen, and outdoor grounds straight from a fairy tale. We were in town to visit family, and we appreciated room to gather comfortably. We loved the nearby trails for daily walks, and the Shaker Village was a fun outing. I spent hours reading in the outdoor chairs. (Thank you for providing bug spray!) We appreciated Jaryn's kindness and responsiveness throughout our trip. This was our first time in the area, and we were utterly charmed by the whole Berkshires experience. This property will be our first choice on future trips!”

  • “Loved this AirBnB!. Location is excellent. Setting is exceptional, Well managed (Host is involved, and focused on providing value). Not inexpensive, but worth it. Exceeding my expectations: Zip lock bags, coffee, insect repellent, paper plates, 5 thermostats (splits) for local control of temp, Garage withEV charger, two outdoor seating areas (one with gas fireplace), Close to hiking (100 yards from your door step), etc......j I will be a repeat customer if the opportunity presents itself.”

  • “This is by far the best Airbnb I have stayed in during my several summers in the Berkshires. The home is clean, comfortable, and very well maintained, and the location is amazing. What a treat to walk out the door and be able to hike for hours in the neighboring state forest, while still being just a few minutes away from places to kayak and cultural attractions like the Clark and Tanglewood. I would gladly stay here again.”
