Amazing experience at South Berkshire Farm! The owners were very polite and the space was clean and perfect for kids. The views are incredible, and our children loved having so much room to play in the snow.
Fantastic communication from the host throughout. Property was exactly as described. The place was very clean and tidy. The beds were unbelievably comfortable. The location is perfect for exploring Great Barrington and Stockbridge. Also, skiing or tubing at Butternut is very close (15minutes?). Our family of four had a fantastic 3 night visit. We’ll be back.
This is truly a special spot. We spent a long weekend here in August and chose it based on its accessibility to the Housatonic River (we enjoy kayaking and fishing). To say it exceeded our expectations would be an under statement. The location is amazing- beautiful views and a true escape from city life. The apartment was clean and well equipped. Our hosts were gracious and generous, leaving us a variety of local treats. It was important to them that our stay was comfortable. It was! We would highly recommend this spot to anyone, I’m sure we’ll be back!

About the host
Hosted by Michael Stumo
Nadia and Michael bought this farm in 1999 when it was in serious disrepair. We raised three children who raised lamb, pigs, chickens and turkeys to make some money by selling meat to neighbors. After 25 years we have fixed it up to be a beautiful place to share with others.
Why they chose this property
The farm is in the Housatonic River valley on Boardman Street in Sheffield MA, the oldest town in the Berkshires. Boardman Street is a popular road for biking and walking. The views from the barn, fields and house are long and beautiful across fields, trees and to the mountains to the west.
What makes this property unique
Our farm is 180 acres and is leased to the largest dairy farm in Massachusetts which raises corn and hay for the cattle. It abuts the Housatonic river. It has river valley fields, swamps and rocky hills. Sergeant John Wilcox bought the farm in 1800 after training troups in nearby Great Barrington during the Revolutionary War. He added the 1812 brick portion of the house to the 1767 original wood structure.
