The house is lovely and wonderfully comfortable. Big enough for our group of five adults to sit together and plenty of places for a quiet time to be alone. The big well furnished screened-in porch was our favorite part. The location is great. It's secluded and peaceful, but an easy ride to the places we love...lake, tennis courts, wooded trails, and restaurants.

The house is in a fantastic location, making it convenient to access local attractions and amenities. However, our experience was marred by several issues that detracted from our stay. While the house appeared clean on the surface, a closer look revealed it was only superficially maintained. Every light switch and door handle was grimy, which made us uncomfortable. We also encountered a significant safety hazard—a rusty nail protruding from the porch door frame—which caused an injury. This is something that should have been addressed before any guests arrived. The bathroom was another area of concern. The toilet seat was cracked and missing paint, adding to the feeling that the property was not properly cared for. This is a basic necessity that should be in good condition for any guest. The closets were cluttered with piles of personal items thrown in disarray, which felt unprofessional and unwelcoming. The kitchen drawers were similarly disappointing, filled with random junk. Overall, while the location was excellent, the lack of proper cleaning, organization, and attention to safety is something the owners must address. We were expecting a more polished experience, and unfortunately, this stay fell short of that expectation.

My family (4 adults and 1 8 year old) spent a great week in Great Barrington. The host was responsive and patient with my many questions. House is spacious in a tranquil setting with a fantastic deck. The access to so many nearby towns provided plenty to do over the week.

Nice house with every amenity you could wish for and a very responsive owner. Very convenient to town, Tanglewood, other sights. Nice screened in porch for relaxing. Can’t really walk to town due to distance and lack of sidewalks but it’s easy to drive a short distance to hikes and walks.

Loved our stay at this house - our second year in a row. Close to town and ski mountains. Stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay!

Only issue was that the house is not on level ground and streets have no sidewalks so we couldn’t walk anywhere from the house. Otherwise overall location was excellent and space worked well for three adults and two small children.

Great house, 5 minutes to Butternut! It was exactly what we were looking for. Home has everything you need for an extended stay!

House was great for our needs
