Great antique farmhouse - full of history and charm
The Hart's family have a beautiful home full of wonderful historical artifacts, comfortable furniture, and well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. We loved the wide plank floors, working fireplace, and modern day wifi. Thank you for sharing this wonderful property.
This is a great old farmhouse with awesome history! There was plenty of room for all of us (14)! There was also a great area for the children to play behind the house!!
This farm house is beautiful. I love the history it holds. Plenty of bedrooms a lot of space. Everything you may possibly need the owner has available to accommodate your stay. The outside is beautiful we took a walk through the woods there is a beautiful stream. The foliage was amazing, the views of the mountains are to die for! Defo recommend this house. We really enjoyed our stay
Dear Brenda, Although the pictures on line of the farmhouse are nice, they were even more warm and comforting like home. There was plenty of room for all and even with a group of 14, the house is roomy enough to find your own private spot. It was just what we needed for a comfortable and fun stay. We enjoyed the outdoor area for eating, playing or just socializing. Loved the fire pit, and of course, somemores were on the menu!! We also found the history of the Hart farmhouse so interesting. Thank you again, Ellen Chilabato
The farmhouse was so unique! it has charm and history, we loved having big fires in the living room after a day skiing and there was everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. The basement was a kids playland, with ping pong and toys. As expected, quirky ceilings and a maze like lay out just added to the fun of staying for us. The showers were very nice, the beds comfortable, the only thing to know is you can hear noise throughout as it is an old home if you are a light sleeper. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
First, the property is so unique...it is hard to believe that we got all 12 of us to fit so comfortably. Everything is old and new: all the charm of an old farmhouse with all the modern conveniences for everyone to be comfortable.
Brenda was fantastic, always promptly answering questions and providing information. When we couldn't get the modem to work, she went into overdrive and we finally located the problem (at our end, a simple fix!) and we had great service all weekend.
Check in and check out couldn't be easier.
The outdoor space was great for our people...we had such a great time sitting outside and enjoying the company and the views.
If you plan on eating in the house with a group, there is ample cookware and plates, etc. for everyone.
Really, we had a great time and the house and location and Brenda were an important part of our fun!
THANKS!
This was the perfect place to hold our small family reunion. The house is beautiful and charming, with a new kitchen (well stocked!) and nice bathrooms. There were plenty of bedrooms to sleep 7 of us. It was a hot weekend near 90 degrees, but the house stayed very cool without fans or air conditioning. The large backyard was mostly in the shade in the afternoon. It’s outside of town, about a ten minute drive, but 5 Corners is near by for breakfast and lunch. This is also a historical home, and we learned a lot about the Hart family and all their accomplishments. If you like nice old houses with a lot of history, this is the place for you. Highly recommended (and there’s plenty of parking)!
We stayed here for a reunion. It is a home with a history (always great), comfortable beds and a great place to gather. Thanks to the host for a great stay.
The house was amazing. The inside space was beautiful,clean, well stocked and so interesting. The outside space was exceptional. It had a huge deck a gorgeous yard, a fire pit, a volleyball net and various "toys" available to use. The hosts clearly thought of everything to provide an enjoable stay.
Big old farmhouse was perfect for our group of 10. Good location close to Williamstown center, but remote enough to feel private and not overlooked by neighbors.
Kitchen had everything we could possibly need and more. Staircases were a bit steep and might be hard to navigate for some folks, but the bedrooms and full bath on first floor were easy to access. Lots of rooms to spread out inside and great outdoor spaces with deck, fire pit. Plenty of room to park several cars. Brenda was very responsive. Would definitely stay there again.
Excellent location for a ski weekend at Jiminy Peak.
Nice old farmhouse with charm. This was a very reasonable property for a ski weekend in the Berkshires; it’s ideal for a good sized group. This is an old house, but it is maintained pretty well. Very good, relatively new bathrooms, kitchen with 2 refrigerators, washer & dryer; all in very good working on order. Keep in mind if it’s very cold, the heating system has a difficult time getting the 1st floor of the house very warm. But overall we had a great stay.
PS, there is delicious bakery a mile from the house that can’t be beat! The baked goods were out of this world.
A small group of family and friends stayed at the Hart House for the weekend. The house has so much character and is filled with antiques and family memorabilia which made us all feel very much at home. Route 7 is very close to the house and a little noisy at times, but the backyard is just heavenly. There is a huge deck overlooking the grassy backyard, a small stream and the meadow beyond. We were within a short driving distance to Mt Greylock, Williamstown and lots of little Berkshire towns. We very much enjoyed our hike through Sheep’s Hill and would recommend checking it out. We would love to stay here again.
This is an amazing place to stay and we had such a wonderful time! This historic farmhouse has been beautifully kept up (you can see the original support beams when playing ping pong in the basement!), the house has all the modern amenities you may need. We enjoyed learning about the family history and looking at the memorabilia and antiques around the house. We stayed here for Feb vacation week and loved having the expansive back yard to play in the snow - building forts and riding our snow tubes down the small hill (as well as snow tubing at Sheep's Hill a few minutes up the road). Located on Rt 7, its a quick run to the grocery store, and the many sites around Williamstown. We went show shoeing and hiking almost every morning, and enjoyed relaxing in front of a roaring fire all afternoon. Brenda and Crystal were both super helpful and responsive, and we highly recommend this for a family getaway! (kids are ages 4 and 8)
The house is historic and very well kept, a rare combination. We enjoyed the special touch with lots of interesting antique furniture and household items. The location is quite central to the Berkshires, so it was a daily short drive to hikes and parks. We cooked everything at home, and had everything we could think of. The bathrooms re updated, the mattresses are very comfortable, and the linen and towels are new. All these made our stay especially pleasant. Thank you!
A nice spot to get together with a slew of relatives for graduation weekend. Plenty of bedrooms, lots of outdoor space, a grill and lots of potential activities (ping pong, frisbee, badminton, etc.)

Great house! Will come back to see fall time!
Thank you so very much for welcoming us into this home. We found everything we needed, from shelter to comfort to loving company. We lived in this home as if it was our own. We slept like rocks, and woke up to breathe the fresh mountain air. The history in this house rings through every room, providing a feeling of cozy, familial warmth. Thank you for your hospitality.

Fantastic historic home!
I absolutely loved this house, full of history and family legacy all over the walls. It was a little warm in the rooms that didn't have AC, but there was AC in upstairs rooms so sleeping was comfortable. Beautiful yard and greenery and the house itself is in phenomenal shape!

A Great Place for a big group
The South Williamstown Farmhouse was great place for our mini-reunion. We were able to sleep 10 comfortably, most with their own room. It is in a great location with easy access to most attractions. I was a little dated, but that it what gives the farmhouse its charm.
