This is an amazing quiet and secluded home, yet close to all amenities the Berkshires have to offer. Organized and well stocked kitchen allow you to cook and enjoy the deck/hot tub overlooking the tranquil pond. We stayed for 2 nights and didn't want to leave!

Beautiful property. Clean, well maintained. Superb communication from the host as well as the property caretaker. The hosts truly anticipated any and every need. This was for a girl’s trip and I don’t think it’s possible we could find a better place to stay. So…we will be back next year!

This is the 4th time in 5 years that we’ve had the pleasure in staying at Emily’s Heron House. The only reason it isn’t 5 out of 5 was that it wasn’t available last year.The house is exactly as described! The hot tub overlooking the pond is wonderful, especially under the stars at night. Everything was provided for our stay! Emily is an excellent communicator and owner who takes care of all the little things needed.As long as the house is available when we plan on being in the area, we hope to stay there again!David & Raina

Lovely stay at Heron House

We had a spectacular Memorial Day weekend at Heron House in the Berkshires. What a wonderful house on a beautiful small lake with complete privacy. And right in the heart of the Berkshires, close to everything! House is immaculate, beautiful decorating and wonderful porch overlooking the lake. We look forward to our next stay at Heron House.

Heron Hiuse

This is the second time we’ve stayed at the Herin House! If you’re looking for a relaxing, charming and we-energizing stay, this is the place! The tranquility of sitting in front of the fireplace while overlooking the pond is exactly what the doctor ordered! We absolutely plan on making this an annual event!

Wonderful stay

We had such a wonderful getaway at Heron House. The location is perfect - the property itself is private with lots to do (canoeing! fishing! hot tubbing) but close to so many activities if you want to get out and about. My family (young children and dog included) had a great time. Thank you Emily and Selom!

A slice of heaven

When we saw the photos of this listing, we thought it was too good to be true. We were so happy to find that the property was even better in person than in the photos. The pond and house are exceptional. It was the perfect spot to relax and unwind for the weekend. We will definitely be looking to come back in the future!

Absolutely a Perfect Home to Stay! Will go Again!

I cannot say enough positive things to say about this property and home. It had every plus to us for an absolute picture perfect all the way around stay! I/we definitely want to go back! The owner could not have been more accommodating, friendly and very easy to reach when I had a question. You could Not ask for more! PERFECT! - Dee

This was about the best last-minute booking we could have asked for. The location, the property, and the home were just what we needed to decompress for a long weekend. Our family - kids, parents, nana, and pups - all found something to love inside and outside. Plus, the location has a very rare mix of quiet solitude (including great views of the stars!) and exceptional convenience to the best of the Berkshires. Emily, the host, and Ken, the caretaker, were both super responsive and exceptionally nice. All of the amenities were fully functional (not to be taken for granted early in the season), and were as described in the listing (also not to be taken for granted some times). The mechanics of the rental process worked smoothly and made the whole experience easy.All in all, the best recommendation that we can give is that we would rent again, and that certainly applies to this property.

Spectacular setting

We’ve stayed several places in the Berkshires and this one takes the prize. The house is well set up for a group, with spacious common area that’s open to the kitchen. Your own private pond on 10 wooded acres is what really sets this place apart. We swam, canoed, bird-watched, and enjoyed the beauty of the fall colors. The location is also convenient to everything. The host was extremely helpful in responding to a minor issue. Highly recommend Heron House!
