A charming, sophisticated treasure

The owners of this home have lovingly considered everything for their guests. From check-in to check -out our 3 day visit was magical. The location of Falls Village was perfect as we longed for a quiet respite, and yet close enough to explore a busy Millerton and enjoy all it had to offer also. The kitchen was appointed with everything you could possibly need, comfortable and clean furniture throughout the house. Blankets, towels, sheets galore. Everything was so thoughtful. CLEAN & FRESH, my top priority. Every expectation was met. We will definitely be back very soon.
