Now this house...

We loved it: the converted house was lovingly restored and updated. Elegant, with all the New England farmhouse hallmarks (wide plank floors, six-over-six windows, original winter and summer kitchen fireplaces, large latched doors, and a winding staircase) updated with two full bathrooms and a large eat-in kitchen. Close to everything we wanted to be close to. We will definitely try to stay here again!

Cozy tranquility in the Berkshires!

What a wonderful experience. We had the pleasure of meeting Grace and her husband who are lovely, kind and welcoming. The house was everything we dreamed of and more. We travel a lot and are often disappointed by rentals. This home was even better than the pictures. It was cozy and clean, authentic yet modern. We were seeking a private and quiet retreat, and this was exactly what we got. We had such a lovely stay and can't wait to come back to this gem. Grace is extremely responsive and thoughtful. Thank you Grace!

Loved having you and can't thank you enough for your thoughts re streaming TV. I went out and got an Amazon Fire TV stick immediately. Also, thanks for being so understanding about the glitch with the TV. Looking forward to seeing you again!

Staying in a 200+ year old cottage

Set on a lovely lot, this small house is spacious and has two porches. The kitchen and baths in the original part of the house have been updated (the upstairs bathroom has a hand held shower head but there's no shower curtain and you have to be short to be able to stand up); the original living room has 19th century charm and is quite dark--but with some lighting. The more recently added living area is light and comfortable. When we arrived, one of the porches and the living area were dank and, over the next few days there were many large fruit flies and a few spiders. Although there were new windows and screens in most of the house, they weren't clean. The stairs to the upstairs bedrooms are a bit hazardous but there are good handrails. We really enjoyed all the nearby venues and events. Grace, the host, was responsive when we discovered that there weren't any potholders, and delivered a couple to us. Although the house is just off a fairly busy road, it was quiet and we all slept well.

Wonderful vacation cottage!

We felt so at home in Grace and Elliot's cottage. It was clean, warm and homey. The hosts were very responsive on the few occasions when we had questions. The property and walking trails are lovely, too, and proximity to skiing at Catamount was great. I would highly recommend a stay here.
