The cottage was beautiful, quiet and well stocked. It was also centrally located to everything we wanted to see and do. The owners were easy to communicate with and responses were prompt. We highly recommend it!!
Quiet, beautiful area in nice neighborhood. Very private. everything you would need is here. Location is within minutes of restaurants and activities. Centrally located in Berkshire County. Great area to walk. Interior is homey, warm and sooo comfortable. Enjoy!
the place is amazing and the owners are so responsive and nice; views are spectacular and such a comfortable place to kick back and relax. very special place. we loved our stay there so very much.
This place is Cute, extremely clean and so convenient to everything we needed. All the conveniences of home. Loved the kayak and thoroughly enjoyed watching and listening to the birds in the neighbors garden. The bed is a bit small and softer than we’re used to, but literally the only negative. It was just hubs and I . I Would recommend . Host was very responsive.
