We had a lot of difficulty with communication with the property manager and until we were on the way, it was unclear we would be able to get in. There were issues with the plumbing and the AC did not work all weekend (in over 100 degree heat). Items throughout the house, such as cabinets and doors, were damaged and the grill was very rusty. One of the basement doors to the outside did not lock. The community pool was a hoot and we had a lot of fun there, but don’t expect a resort vibe. It’s a shame that they let the grounds around the house get so overgrown as there would an epic view from the deck.

We had a wonderful 2-day stay at this charming house! The location is perfect, nestled near the mountains with breathtaking views. The house itself is clean and cozy, with comfortable bedrooms stocked with extra blankets and pillows. The spacious bathrooms (both upstairs and downstairs!) had plenty of towels, a big plus.We loved relaxing by the fireplace, playing games, and even tickling the ivories on the piano - it added to the homey vibe!Kudos to Casey, who quickly fixed our fridge issue - super responsive and friendly!We'd definitely return, especially in summer. Highly recommend this property to others!"

Mountain Heaven

I spent my 60th birthday with a few friends at Mountain House and it was even better than I dreamed. The comfort and simplicity of the decor along with the mountain views. A must for those who like simple elegance.

This vacation home gets an A from our group! The location was wondeful for a long weekend of hiking in the Berkshires. We were an intergenerational group and it was great for the grandparents to be on the first floor and adolescents in the loft, and smaller kids and parents in the roomy and comfortable bedrooms.It was a dream to have plenty of bathrooms!The kitchen is really well set up for a large group (usually a source of lots of irritation!).It was great to have a dining tablr that fit everyone.The magestic fireplace really was a showstopper. We had a beautiful fire going during most of our visit. We enjoyed the sauna, and a jump in the chilly pool when we were nice & hot.It was perfect for family - luxurious and elegant without being overly precious.

Extended family getaway

This trip was for our extended family including 10 people ages 18-??. This house is located about 1/2 mile up a windy road above the race brook lodge's main facilities. Everyone loved the secluded location with beautiful views of the mountains out of main living area and 2nd floor. There were so many places for all of us to hang out together and/or get some private time. The house is so purposely decorated with such a personal touch. The kids took a hike right from the house. We drove down to the main lodge and used the pool for a great time. The management is so responsive via text at any time needed.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
While the house is large and secluded for those who want a peaceful location, the condition is worn out with threadbare rugs and a hodgepodge of old furniture, uncomfortable seating options and old appliances. Some areas of the kitchen were dirty as was the outdoor deck and furniture. The views were substantially different from the photos as trees/shrubs are overgrown and blocked it from both levels. It should be noted that the pool is not private nor located near the house but down a hilly, gravel road that is part of a lodge on the main road.
