Gorgeous modern house in a wonderful location. Three senior couples stayed in the house and we all thought that the property was exceptionally nice. The house was immaculate and beautifully furnished. Everyone enjoyed Lake Garfield and visits to the Norman Rockwell Museum, Edith Wharton’s Home, the Hancock Shaker Village, and Mount Greylock. We highly recommend the property.

This house in the woods is bother modern and cozy. The kitchen is well stocked and the great room (dining room and living room) has great style and comfort. The house was spotless when we arrived.This beautiful modern house is located on a wooded drive. There are other similar modern houses to check out, so this house feels private while not being too secluded.Location is also great with Great Barrington, Stockbridge, Lee and Lenox all within easy driving distance for shopping or restaurants.
Beautiful New England location, especially in the autumn.
A house up the road to provide a glimpse of the neighborhood. The cosmos were still blooming in mid-to-late-October.

This is a immaculate, wonderful home situated in a quiet wooded setting with a fenced in backyard. It is fully and thoughtfully stocked with all the necessary amentities (kitchen, bathrooms, laundry). Walking distance (0.9 miles) to the local beach on the lake. We look forward to returning.

Upscale in the woods

Nothing was lacking in this beautiful home in a private wooded surrounding. The layout was great for all ages in comfort. The master en suite and powder room were great, leading into a spacious space housing living, dining and kitchen. The kitchen was roomy and well appointed with top scale appliances-everything you could need in pots , pans and down to the small items! The closed in porch let us feel the beautiful landscape indoors and the patio outside was perfect for dinner in the woods. The lake 1/2 mile down the road was a great asset and very well kept, with parking, a small sandy beach and lovely view. Howard was very responsive prior and during our visit and made the week very easy. The home is spotless, with sophisticated furnishings that were clean and easy to take care of. A perfect vacation- strongly recommend!

Beautiful contemporary home in the Berkshires

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home in Monterey. The house is beautiful and well equipped, and the owner is extremely helpful and communicative. There had been a big snow storm right before our stay, and the owner went above and beyond to make sure the house was ready for us. Wonderful stay!!

Phenomenal

Without a doubt, the best short-term rental we've ever stayed in. It's really as good as everyone says it is. Exactly as described. Immaculately clean. Tastefully decorated. Uncluttered & well-stocked cook's kitchen. Very comfortable bedding. Great communication from a very friendly and attentive host. Overall perfect experience for a long weekend of skiing with our two teens. Will definitely be returning.

What an amazing home. I'm hesitant to give this property as glowing a review as it deserves for fear of making it harder to book in the future. We will 100% be staying here again in the future. A beautiful home in a great town and near everything the Berkshires has to offer.

Wonderful house, great location

We had Thanksgiving with family. Great kitchen. Enjoyed the wood stove and views of the woods. Nice big fenced yard for the dog. Our only complaint was that two of the beds had aero mattress which aren’t the most comfortable to sleep on. Overall we had a great stay and would go again.

Peaceful treasure in the Berkshires

We had a wonderful 3 night stay! The house was immaculately clean and even nicer in person than the pictures. We visited Great Barrington, Lee, Lenox and Becket, which are all between 15-30 min away. The lake access is a short drive. We enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding on Lake Garfield. Howard was a great and attentive host. He was very responsive to questions we had about the house and area. We would definitely stay again. There’s so much to do! The house is surrounded by woods and was very quiet. We loved the screened porch and making a campfire at night. We also enjoyed walking our dog on the street which was very quiet and safe for walking. Will be back for sure!

Gorgeous setting and fabulous house in Monterey

We just stayed at this property for a long weekend over the holidays. Having rented properties for 15 years, this is an excellent property. The setting in Monterey is both private but also not too remote. The house has been recently very tastefully renovated and was really comfortable. The kitchen is well designed (it was freezing outside so we did a lot of cooking) and well stocked. The living space in really comfortable, with a gas stove that kept us toasty. All the bedrooms have very comfortable beds. There is even another bed in the finished basement, and that room also doubles as a workout space. The owner was great to work with, extremely and quickly responsive and we had no issues. We would definitely return to this property without hesitation.
