Beautiful house and property. Everything was as described and ready for us when we arrived. Plenty of space for three families to spread out. Huge kitchen, which was well stocked with appliances and cooking utensils, pots, pans, etc. Lovely large lawn and outdoor space. Communicating with the host was a breeze. Would recommend this property for anyone looking for a relaxing escape close to Berkshires attractions!

The basement library, toys, and art projects sound like they were a hit with the little ones, and we love hearing that. We're glad the pond made for such a peaceful backdrop, that the kids had fun swimming, and that the kitchen was well equipped for cooking with a full house. We hope to have the opportunity to host you and your family again.
