Summit Retreat:2BR/2Bath Rustic Beauty + Yoga Room

THE CABIN AND THE LANDSCAPE

Welcome to Summit Retreat, a peaceful and well-loved home perched above the valley, with open views stretching to the Seven Sisters range and Skinner House on Mount Holyoke. This is a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and watch hawks drift overhead at noon while thrushes sing at dusk. The land is alive with herbs, vegetables, flowers, and healthy trees, all lovingly tended. A flat lawn invites play or rest, with a shady hammock ready for a nap. Expect visits from deer, rabbits, heron, and even the occasional bear, while the sky shifts from misty mountain mornings to brilliant blue afternoons.

Once a Conservation Corps cabin, the home has been reimagined by a well-traveled anthropologist who crafted each space with meaning and care. The result is both poetic and practical—a place for conversation, retreat, and inspiration.
