You're done with being pigeonholed
Are you the sort who likes to roam wild in the hills, just you and the mountain? Or the sort who likes to gaze pensively at classical art? Or do you prefer to take in a theater production then dissect it over a glass of wine afterwards? Wait, you're all those things? Well, then a Williamstown vacation rental could be the one for you. Up in the Berkshires, Williamstown's got the perfect mix of cultural and outdoor activities, and that's before you get onto the charm of the place itself, with its cool, college-town vibe.
The fine art of fine art in Williamstown
Make no mistake, booking a Williamstown vacation rental will land you in a real culture capital. To get a feel for the place, why not start with local history at the Williamstown Historical Museum? After that, it's all about the art in Williamstown. You're spoiled rotten, with the Williams College Museum of Art, the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, and the famous Clark Art Institute. And since no-one wants to hang around indoors all day, you might want to check out the fields, wetlands, and historic modernist house at Field Farm.
It's an Appalachian invasion
Williamstown is a hotspot for culture vultures, with a thriving arts scene and a famous annual summer theater festival. But a Williamstown vacation rental is a gift for outdoor types too. Look past the neatly-dressed college kids for a moment. See those heavily-bearded types with ragged clothes and big packs? They're here because the Appalachian Trail passes pretty close to the town. If you want to hike some of the trail too - just to say you've done it - try the bit up round Pine Cobble Mountain. What's more, come winter, many of those hiking trails become ski trails.
Mounting mountains in the brilliant Berkshires
Williamstown is up in the celebrated highland country of the Berkshires, and it's so spectacular you won't know where to look. There are some serious mountains up here, including Pine Cobble Mountain, and Mount Greylock, the highest point in Massachusetts. You're also spoiled for choice when it comes to national forests and reservations, and as you can imagine, the wildlife that comes with them ain't half bad. Head up into Green Mountain National Forest for potential sightings of bear, beaver, and moose. Bird life also flourishes up here, and you never know what you might see if you're quiet enough.
