Revel in the absolute beauty of Western Massachusetts/Southern Vermont by exploring the many scenic areas and culture. Treat yourself to delicious meals at some of the local eateries. The town of Charlemont is a hill town community located along the Deerfield River and scenic Mohawk Trail in Northwestern, Ma. You can feel the history in town and even visit the historic Hoosic tunnel which is a few miles up the road (and if you’re lucky you may even see the freight train pass by the house). In the summer, tubing down the river is quite an adventure. The home provides river tubes for guests which are stored in the barn (life vests are not provided so please plan accordingly). Berkshire East Mountain Resort is approximately 5 minutes away and offers white water rafting tours, downhill skiing, mountain biking, ziplines, an aerial adventure park and mountain coaster. Hicks Family Farm and Corn Maze is a great spot in the fall for pumpkin picking and also does a super scary haunted corn maze.

Shelburne Falls, a vibrant art community, is approximately 15 minutes away and is home to the famous Bridge of Flowers, art galleries, coffee shops, eateries, boutiques and a bowling alley. Historic downtown Wilmington Vt is approximately 25 minutes away and is also full of independently owned shops and restaurants. Celebrating farm-to-table culture, many local restaurants offer the best of the bounty of the land and there are specialty stores such as Quaigh Designs, The Vermont Bowl Company and the Norton Quilt House to visit. Mt. Snow is approximately 45 minutes away and Stratton Mountain is under an hour from the house. If boating or jet skiing is more your jam, High County Marine is a rental business located in Wilmington, Vt.

Back at the home you will find a charming, well appointed kitchen with a large island for prepping your favorite meal. The kitchen is open to the dining room which includes an 8’ custom farmhouse table, a charming fireplace and 2 comfortable swivel chairs for lounging. Adjacent is a large living room with sectional sofa and flat screen tv which is the most comfortable place to curl up and watch a movie with your family. This room has french doors leading to a beautiful outdoor goshen stone patio and fire pit surrounded by lush perennial gardens. To complete the first floor there is a bedroom with queen sized bed, a full bathroom, and a bedroom with king sized bed and ensuite. The second floor adds a full bathroom, 2 bedrooms with queen sized beds and a bedroom with 2 twin sized beds. There is also a small office space should you need a place to work ( though hopefully you won’t!)
Enjoy a family picnic in the barn where a grill and farmhouse table is available for use. Ping pong, corn hole and other games in the barn are available for our guests use as well. Or, sit on the porch and take in the sounds of nature and the Deerfield River. This special home has something for everyone to enjoy.
