We booked this home to celebrate my daughter's wedding weekend. The house was beautiful. Well maintained, clean and comfortable. The hot tub was relaxing after a long day of setting up for the wedding. The bride and group celebrated for a few days after the ceremony and enjoyed their first days as husband and wife. Thank you so much Erich for your hospitality.

This was our fourth or fifth stay at Heart’s Desire, and it was fabulous, as always! The house is incredibly clean, features beautiful photography, and the beds are among the best I’ve ever slept in. I enjoyed three perfect, uninterrupted nights of bliss. We even got to see a rainbow while we were there. My mom and aunt cooked many meals in the well-appointed kitchen. We are very much looking forward to our next visit!

This was my second time staying at Heart’s Desire. It is a wonderful property- clean, peaceful and it has everything you would need. The living room furniture is very comfortable as is the bed. The kitchen is well appointed with full size appliances including a dishwasher. There is a washer and dryer in the unit. This is one of my top go-to locations in the Berkshires!

Very Nice Stay

We had a very comfortable and unfortunately short stay while skiing for a couple days. The rental was very clean and had plenty of room for my family of 4. We enjoyed the hot tub after skiing and its convenience close to Jiminy Peak.

This is my home away from home when visiting Williams College. The home and surrounds are simply amazing; the perfect environment for remote work, hosting family for dinner or simply relaxing. Fast becoming a tradition for us!

Our Heart's Desire too!

This is the 2nd time we've stayed here and loved it again. This has become our go to place to stay for our Berkshires adventures. Clean, comfortable, beautiful, private (the garden center was not open while we were there in Feb.), and great location!
