We had a great time at the property. It felt like home, and it was so nice to tuck in after a long day at the Brimfield Flea Market and relax in quiet, beautiful surroundings. And Matt was extremely communicative and kind as our plans changed a few times around checkout. We're already looking forward to our next stay!

Great property, the house is huge, and Matt is a great host. It’s a very quiet neighborhood, but there’s no street lights so a flashlight is a must for nighttime travels.

Very spacious. The layout was convenient - a full bathroom with a washer and dryer on the main level, plus another full bath and a powder bath upstairs. We also appreciated that there were plenty of towels for our stay. The kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans, and utensils, which made meals easy.

Excellent experience

Matt was extremely cooperative and always available for any questions we had. The house was totally stocked with everything one might need in case you forgot something. It is located in a quiet, safe neighborhood and the perfect size for a large family getaway. The fact that it was pet friendly was very important to us.

Big house with lots of space. Lots of character. Owner was very responsive and this rental had a big part in one of our best family vacations ever. Due to additions and assumed remodels the light switches were a bit hard to find.

A GEM

My wife and I were in the area for a wedding so we rented this house for us two and two dogs. It could not have been better. Spacious, quiet and spotlessly clean we very much enjoyed our stay. We won't wait for another wedding to go back.

Quiet Retreat

The house was clean (could use additional dusting) and located in a quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed our 3 night stay. The beds were comfortable. There was plenty of room for the 4 of us. I would've liked instructions for the light switches. There were so many... Other than that, the owner was quite responsive to our emails. Definitely would stay again if it's available.

It had the necessities but it was not clean. There was grease on the range hood and the drawers were full. The host was professional but there were stairs with no handrails. The main bedroom had no door and did not have privacy. The entance to the house had a ripped screen and my husband got cut. We left for a hotel on Wednesday.

Arrived early and expected to come in so no time for doing the normal routine of the checklist. The home is sprawling with three bedrooms, two have doors and the master is open concept. This is in the description. The open bedroom has a fireplace, which guests love in the winter. Kitchen drawers will take note of that but they are full with utensils used in the kitchen. Did not know about the screen door, was not on my radar and will fix it immediately. Will inform the cleaning service of range hood. Asked guest for specifics for specifics on cleaning and they did not respond.

Home away from home

Enchanting and eclectic. Well loved home with the children's highth recorded on the kitchen wall. Light in every room during the day and dark as a cave at night. If you want seclusion this is the place. Watch the stars and view the animals. Looking forward to a summer rental. 5 stars

Comfortable Home, Quiet Location

We stayed at Matt's home during a renovation of our own home. Matt was easy to work with, very responsive and allowed us to bring our pets. The house was very comfortable with plenty of room to spread out. We loved the living/tv room that looked out at the woods in the back yard. The neighborhood was quiet but close to stores and activities. We took our dog on daily walks at Fountain Park and discovered delicious baked goods and ice cream at Rice's Fruit Farm (both nearby in Wilbraham). A very enjoyable visit - thanks Matt!

Awesome house in the country

This house sits in a beautiful setting, along a historic country road. The area is quiet and picturesque, with lots of birds and wildlife. The house itself is large and comfortable. The living room is huge, with a big tv. The kitchen is fully equipped, and the great room is perfect for dinners and other gatherings. The beds are super comforable. The screen porch is an extra bonus. I've stayed here several times and plan to stay again. Matt is a very responsive host. I highly recommend this house. A+++.
