About the host
Hosted by Julie
We enjoy providing people with a place to relax and enjoy a unique setting.
Why they chose this property
Eastern Columbia County has amazing access to both the Berkshires (Lenox, Tanglewood, Great Barrington, Stockbridge) and the Hudson Valley.
What makes this property unique
The privacy. The quiet (except for the bullfrogs in the pond and the train whistle). The view across the pond with the fish jumping and birds swopping.
