    We had a great stay at the farmhouse. The house itself has a ton of character, lots of history to it but at the same time very comfortable, quiet and neat. The host Colin was very easy to communicate with from start to finish and responsive throughout as well. Would definitely stay here again.

    We had a lovely weekend in this beautiful home. There were so many cozy reading nooks and fireplaces. The view from every window is beautiful. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were comfortable Great location for hikes and exploring the little towns nearby. Absolutely perfect for what we were looking for. And I’m longing for a cast iron stove like that for my home.

    We had a great time! We loved the multiple gathering spaces, all with fireplaces, including the comfortable kitchen seating area, amazing dinning room, and spacious living room and outdoor spaces as well. Colin was a great host and responded immediately when there was a mix-up about arrival and entry. The area is amazing and we loved the history of the home and area.

    We chose this property because of the age (1740s farmhouse) and convenient location in the southern Berkshires only 15 minutes or so from Great Barrington. The house did not disappoint. It is a very charming farmhouse in excellent condition for its age and with modern amenities. As we only had four adults, there was plenty of room to spread out. The property is very private off the main road with beautiful surroundings. We only wish the weather were cooler or we would have enjoyed a wonderful fire in one of the large fireplaces.

    Charming is the right word to describe this property. Situated in an idyllic rural setting, this antique home offers a unique opportunity to experience the best of the past. We were visited by several deer, a fox, and even - at a distance - a juvenile black bear that scampered across the far end of the property. There are lots of hiking trails close by or at a short drive away. If you love nature, this is the place for you. The grandchildren loved exploring the property, and the home was well-supplied with books & games for indoor entertainment. Our hosts were excellent and responded quickly to our questions.

    History buffs will be in heaven! Hard to find such a well preserved 280 year-old property. The floors throughout are something you cannot copy today. Amazing. The creature comforts are all there and our 4 adult group were very comfortable. We used the 2 queen rooms (one up a narrow/steep stairway over the kitchen but worth it when you get up). *There are another 2 upstairs bedrooms accessed through a second living room. These bedrooms and the adjoining bathroom are connected by a hallway with a very low rail with open area underneath. Just a caution if you have toddlers, sleepwalkers or clumsy people like me;) We hung out in the kitchen room & patio only.The patio has a lovely view and 4 (new?) Adirondack chairs. Very peaceful! There is a large square hole in the deck (old hot tub location?). Another caution if you have very young wobbly toddlers, otherwise not an issue for our group at all.The kitchen has modern major appliances and other than a toaster, it had everything we needed. The small living area next to the kitchen is charming with a pretty fireplace, built-in bookcase, wood beams and 2 arm chairs w/ottoman. The small loveseat has seen better days and a larger sofa in lieu of it would be very welcome. I would not hesitate to recommend. Easiest check-in, lovely host and delivered charm. These great homes won't always be available. What a treat for us.

    What a wonderful property - an historic gem, with most parts dating back over two centuries, yet well suited to 21st century guests. The character and comfort of the house greatly enhanced our Berkshire getaway, and the rural setting was deeply relaxing. This is a real home full of New England charm and warmth.

    Absolutely love this sweet home! There was plenty of room for all eight of us. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked for a quick weekend away. We had tickets to Tanglewood and wished we had planned on a few more days to enjoy the house and surrounding are. The house in on a beautiful piece of land. Colon was very easy to work with- would recommend this stay without hesitation!

    My husband and I came here for our 10th anniversary with our 9-year-old. The house itself is so charming and historic and cozy, with tons of space. We loved that there are two different stairways to the second floor, which has two parts not connected to each other. Kitchen and small table and seating area are delightful to spend time in. We had a gorgeous fire in the family room in the evening. Best of all are the grounds, huge and gorgeous, green and serene, with a lovely pond. Communication was perfect.

    The place was perfect. It was close to everywhere we needed to go. The house was beautiful as well as the surrounding property. We loved sitting on the porch and listening to the frogs at night. The interior with all the fireplaces was cozy and wonderful. The host were very responsive and checked in with us. I can’t say enough positive things about our wonderful stay there.

    This antique farmhouse has been carefully maintained and sensitively updated over time, so that newer spaces feel nearly like the original ca. 1745 core. There were only 4 of us, two parents and two adult daughters, but a group twice our size could be reasonably accommodated. The 10-acre setting is beautiful, with the rear lawn leading to a private pond and the front of the property separated from Rt. 41 by 1/4 mile of farmed fields. The hosts provided clear and thorough instructions and the home was warm and comfortable.

    A well appointed charming old farmhouse in a quiet pastoral setting with a small lake on the property. Close to town and ski areas. House was clean and had all the amenities we needed. Host was easy to communicate with and helpful. He suggested we check in early as snow was forecast in the afternoon. We were 3 generations with a total of 6 of us. The 4 bedrooms and 6 beds ensured everyone had their own bed. Kids enjoyed playing in the snow. Overall an excellent stay. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a sizeable home in a quiet country setting close to town. Definitely deserves a 5 out of 5 star rating.
