About this property

MAGICAL GETAWAY ON AN ALPACA FARM

Charming one-bedroom apartment on an alpaca farm! Guests are greeted every morning by two alpacas, Peanut and Sebastian, who will come to your kitchen door, hoping to be fed an apple. The ground level garden apartment features a large eat-in kitchen, sitting room, cozy study 'nook', bathroom (with laundry facilities) and a separate entrance. High-speed internet and Wi-Fi are available. Beautiful views of the hills from the kitchen, peaceful and quiet.

Whether attending a graduation at one of the area's five colleges or many private schools or simply seeking some quiet time from a hurried existence, a stay at the Owl's Nest will make your visit a memorable one. Visits to West County in the early spring for pancakes and our legendary maple syrup, river rafting and zip line tours in the Summer, Fall festivals in October and Wintertime skiing at the nearby Berkshire East ski slopes are a few other reasons to come our way.

Because we have alpacas and our own wonderful dogs, Daisy (a Leonberger) and Eli, a rescue Gt. Pyrenees, we do not allow other animals on the property. We hope, however, that you will enjoy ours!

There is a no smoking policy on the premises. One will want to breathe in the fresh, pure air of this delightful setting and enjoy observing the stars in a perfect black sky at night.

We are 4 miles from Shelburne Falls, a charming town with galleries and very good restaurants and 25 minutes from Northampton, home of Smith College. Amherst is about 40 minutes away.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
I am both a therapist and an artist. Originally a sculptor, I have expanded my creative interests to include spinning my alpacas' fleece and knitting warm and lovely hats. The environment is nurturing and peaceful here, and whoever stays at the Owl's Nest will experience a slower pace of life, combined with the joy of interacting with animals.

Why they chose this property

Visitors almost always comment about 'how quiet' it is at the Owl's Nest. While it feels isolated, it is also within an easy driving distance to several dynamic and fun towns where there is much to entertain one. Guests especially enjoy going to the town of Shelburne Falls, only 4 miles away, where there are numerous restaurants, galleries and when open, the Bridge of Flowers. Northampton, a vibrant college town, is 25 minutes away and offers great restaurants. Amherst, another great college town, is only 35 minutes away, and has much to offer all year round.

What makes this property unique

A stay at the Owl's Nest will help a visitor remember the simpler delights of life and connect one with the joy of animals. There is nothing finer (or funnier!) than watching an alpaca come to your door (when called, of course!) ready to eat his morning apple. It is equally entertaining to observe the interactions between a large and "gentle giant" Leonberger who also comes to receive a treat because she wants to do what her alpaca "brothers" do!
