The owner greeted us the first night. Very pleasant and super friendly. The space is beautiful and the fact that it was once an artist's studio for me made it even more special. The nearby lake is gorgeous. We brought our dog and she was very relaxed and comfortable for the stay. I thoroughly enjoyed the property and our mini vacation!

Restorative Retreat in the Berkshires!
We enjoyed our restorative stay at Chagall’s Retreat in New Preston. Melanie and Gary were amazing hosts: we were welcomed with delicious cookies and a bottle of wine! The studio was well appointed and we had a great time walking the boardwalk at White Memorial (excellent suggestion of Melanie’s): our French bulldog had a great time too! Thank uou

Thank you so much Melanie.......the place was beautiful and perfect for us. We visited so many cool shops and restaurants, the lake, the Washington Green, etc.
We even enjoyed the rain because we don't get to experience it much in Vegas. :)

New Preston Charm + Warm Welcome =Christmas Unforgettable Stay
This charming 2-bedroom New Preston apartment was the perfect escape! Cozy rooms welcomed us with peace and comfort, melting away city stress. Host Melanie's warm smile and delicious homemade cookies added a personal touch that made our stay truly heartwarming.
Reconnecting with nature was easy - breathtaking scenery, quiet streets, and a nearby lake offered peaceful beauty. This wasn't just a place to stay, it was an experience we'll treasure.
Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
P.S. too bad I forgot Ask Melanie for the cookie recipe, were delicious!

Perfect place to relax and recharge!
The Artist Annex was just what I was looking for: a perfect little getaway to recharge my batteries for a few days. Melanie and Gary (as well as their adorable dogs) were gracious and accommodating hosts, and the space was bright and airy with a perfect deck for coffee in the a.m. and wine in the evening (chipmunk visitors aplenty)! The complimentary bottle of wine and delish chocolate chip cookies were a perfect touch! Great places nearby for hiking, and plenty of sights to explore. Definitely check out The Smithy Cafe at 9 Main, The Owl Wine Bar and White Horse Pub. All of the locals I met along the way were so friendly and New Preston itself was quaint and picturesque. Would come back in a heartbeat!

A perfect 5-star VRBO retreat
Loved our stay at Chagall's retreat. We were in town over Memorial Day weekend for a friend's birthday and luckily found Melanie's guesthouse nearby. Convenient location, walking distance to the lake, beautiful surroundings, extremely comfortable and very clean and quiet. Loved the adjacent patio surrounded by nature. Easy access and parking. The home-made cookies were an unexpected bonus. Melanie was welcoming and friendly, and had great recommendations for restaurants etc. 100% would stay again next time in the area!

Delightful!
A charming apartment close to Lake Waramug and
the tiny village of New Preston.
The space is light and airy. From the piles of sumptuous towels to the fabulous homemade cookies it's perfect spot for a long weekend (or more),
The kitchen is small but quite serviceable.
there is no living room per se but there is a lovely deck which was even better.
Melanie could not have been a more warm and gracious host.
We hope to be back.

Nice get away spot
My wife, two children and I stayed for a long weekend. It was great! It was minutes from the town boat launch and we had blast boating on the lake. We also went to Kent falls, it was about a 15 minute drive. The area is so quiet and peaceful. We will be going back soon!

a beautiful respite
We loved the cottage and the owners were very responsive to any of our questions. Only concern was that the skylights let in light and I'm sensitive to light so woke up earlier than I wanted to in the morning. On the other hand it was great to be up when the rest of the world was quiet. We got to see a bear!

A wonderful stay!
My wife and I had a great few days at this cozy suite. Very quiet and comfy, with lots of natural light and a patio for meals. Easy access to the Lake Waramaug beach; the towns of New Preston, Washington, and Kent; and hiking and biking. We even went over to the Storm King Art Center for one morning - an easy drive. Melanie, the owner, was incredibly responsive. Highly recommend it.

Romantic Studio with Nature At the Front Door
Each night of our stay the moon shined brightly and could be seen through the sky lights that adorned the ceiling of Melanie's and Gary's quaint and romantic space, a former artist studio. The space had plenty of room for me, my spouse, and Piper, our beloved family pet, and we greatly appreciated the complimentary bottle of wine and flowers that welcomed us to the studio. The hosts provided us with plenty of privacy and space to enjoy their lovely studio which connected to their beautiful home. The hosts were accessible via text and Melanie responded instantly in response to questions or requests for restaurant and hiking suggestions.
We learned that nature in the form of numerous conservation areas were abundant and within an easy drive of the property. Our favorite was the Hidden Valley Preserve where we hiked several of the trails which spanned from easy to moderate difficulty and traversed along the river and rose to elevations that allowed spectacular views of the surrounding valley.
We look forward to returning to the area and will definitely book Melanie's and Gary's wonderful space again.

Acerca del anfitrión
Anfitrión: Melanie Baublis
We just moved up here...One owner is here a lot and the other lives closer to the city during the week. We moved up this summer! The yard still needs a lot of landscaping but we have years to work on it!
Por qué eligió esta propiedad
We fell in love with this barn home instantly... actually I was on a work trip and my husband called and told me to bid on the house immediately... I reminded him I was out of the country... he prevailed and we came to terms before I even got back to the states. The area is beautiful! We love it. The house has such history and is so beautiful. We are happy to share it.
