Relaxing property

A wonderful house, very comfortable, clean, private, chill. Property owner Vicki was a pleasure to work with. Due to the actual location, we may or may not be that way again, but if we do end up in that area, we would DEFINITELY stay here again. A great stay at a very decent price.

What a great house! Peaceful location, large and beautiful house. Exactly true to pictures. We slept well and enjoyed a relaxed stay visiting nearby family. Would absolutely come back—hearing the birds in the morning from the screen porch was such a cheerful bonus. And a/c worked great on a hot New England weekend!!

Lovely clean home in a nice isolated location. Close to Big Pond, which has a nice quiet beach and a nice playground too. Loved the front deck and back screened porch—there were no mosquitos during the days, so we were able to enjoy both. Owner was very helpful/great communication. Owner does not provide “personal items”, so remember to bring your own soap/body wash and shampoo.

Lovely House in a Quiet Spot

We enjoyed our second stay at this quiet home in Otis. House is large and lovely with more than enough space for a family or group, with 3 bedrooms. The master suite is huge and comfortable.

Otis

Everything was tip-top! Plenty of space, beautiful house… kitchen, living room, porch, garage, etc. ideal for family get-togethers! Great bedrooms, very quiet and restful! We stayed here once before about 5 years ago and enjoyed our second time as much as the first.

Third time staying @ this lovely home

We ( my sister, son & wife ) stayed August 5 - 8, and my other son, wife & two grandsons came over for dinner one evening. They live nearby in Becket, and it was great to have the whole family together. The new dining table & chairs were perfect & the screened porch gets great cross breezes. This might be our last visit though as we get older we require safety bars in the shower & higher toilets

Just listening to the birds

We wanted a peaceful rest and that is what we got. House is off a road and you cannot hear anything just the birds. First time in the Berkshires and it was close to everything we wanted to do. House had plenty of room and all the amenities you needed. Used the gas grill a couple of time to cook. Sitting outside in the morning the front porch was nice and cool and at night the back porch.

Extremely Secluded -- In a Good Way

Sometimes a listing for "secluded" isn't really so. But here it was wonderfully true. When turning off Rte 23 to High Rise Rd, it looks like a single-lane gravel driveway. Then you continue and continue over the rough road until this amazing house appears in a clearing. It's a hidden gem in the woods. Despite difficulty with the lockbox (you need extraordinary strength) and one car getting a flat tire after driving over High Rise Rd., we had a great time in the house. The master suite can easily sleep at least 5-6 people between the bed, couch, futon, and rollaway found in a closet, and they would share a full bathroom. Plus there are 2 more bedrooms, and they would share the 2nd full bathroom.

Lovely property!

The property was exactly as featured in their listing.! It is a lovely home - very neat and clean with comfortable beds!. The kitchen was fully stocked. There were plenty of places for guests to sleep and plenty of room to spread out and relax. We especially loved the back screened in porch! The host was a pleasure to interact with. She checked up on us during the first few days to be sure we had everything we needed. The only downside is that is in a fairly isolated area and takes almost 30 minutes to drive to into 'town'.

A wonderful weekend!

My friends and I had a wonderful and relaxing stay here in Otis! The home was beautiful and very clean! Vicki was absolutely wonderful! She checked with us to make sure we made it to the house and left the porch light in for us because we were arriving in the evening. That made us feel so welcome! On the porch there is a game called Ringo that was so simple and fun! We all got addicted to it. We would definitely recommend this place and we would love to return!

Four Friends Getaway

The property was very secluded in a beautiful bucolic setting. We were 4 friends getting away from the city. The house was comfortable and had many areas to relax and lounge about, which was tested due to the rainy weather we encountered. We had an opportunity to walk on tree and wildflower lined paths, surrounded by waterfalls. It was very relaxing and renewing.

About the host

Hosted by Vicki Lavertu

Host profile image
My name is Vicki...I live in Easthampton, MA only 1 hour away from the property. Western, MA has been our home for 23 years. Love the area.

Why they chose this property

Recently purchased this home and take pride in decorating and furnishing this home for ourselves and others to enjoy. I furnished this home in a modern feel with clean lines and simplicity. The kitchen is totally stock with new appliances, dishes and kitchenwares. You will love to cook here!!! I know I do!

What makes this property unique

The two outdoor areas.....the front porch and screened in patio in the back of the home are quite relaxing. They are my favorite spots to enjoy reading, listening to music, or having a cocktail. Being in an outside setting allows all of nature come alive such as birds singing and the warmth of the sun.
