We spent three nights in the Stone Schoolhouse, hiking, visiting The Clarke, and enjoying a lovely evening concert at Tanglewood. Convenient location for seeing the Berkshires, unique quarters and friendly hosts. Highly recommend!

Fantastic stay. Hosts thought of everything. Very quiet and a charming space. Great access to the mountain, as well.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay at this old schoolhouse. The attention to detail was impressive, right down to freshly cut flowers throughout. We loved that the history of the schoolhouse was on display, along with interesting relics from the 1800s/early 1900s. Everything was great and we hope to return one day!

Great host--genuinely friendly and genuinely helpful. Right at the base of Greylock. And just down the road from a miniature horse farm!

We were looking for a relaxing place for a weekend away, ending with a concert at Tanglewood...I came across the old school house, was immediately taken with it, and it did not disappoint. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this unique placec with close access to local hiking and biking options. Rich and Cheryl were gracious and flexible hosts.

I cannot compliment Cheryl enough. She thought of everything when decorating the old school from the chalkboard filled with notes from old students to the collection of books and desks. My sister and I had such an extraordinarily wonderful time staying at the school for five nights. It was unseasonably warm and Cheryl provided extra fans, fresh flowers and the friendliness every single day. Not often do you meet a host that you want to stay in contact with. The whole of the village was like that everywhere we stopped. The location was perfect. We drove just a few miles to a beautiful hike. The country road with the rescue ponies, alpacas and horses and wildflowers was perfect for an evening walk. The lake, the ice cream shops and farm stands, just magical.
Thank you so much.

A great place in a great location with super-responsive and helpful owners! My partner is a teacher and she was entranced with the schoolroom, the history, and the old textbooks!

I adored my stay at The Stone School.
Rich and Cheryl were terrific hosts who had great suggestions for food and things to do. And the whole experience was easy to navigate.
Excellent marks for cleanliness, comfort, ease of parking, quiet & solitude, quaintness, local pleasures.
I found it perfect for myself and it would also be ideal for a couple (or perhaps a couple with one or two young children.) The bathroom is on the first floor with a modern sink and vanity; everything looks brand new, and there are plenty of linens and towels. The one drawback here is that it is a shared bathroom and the toilet has no door because of the way the building is constructed, which is why I say it's great for a single person or couple with small children. A very minor quibble for this charming place.
Though it's located directly on N. Main Street in Lanesborough, I was never bothered by noise - there is very little car traffic - and the whole atmosphere was quaint and relaxing.
Highly recommend and planning to go back soon.

I had a wonderful time. The lil stone house school is restored in a loving way! It feels homie and cosy and has a lot of stories to tell. The location is great for seeing museums or just go for a hike. Rich and Cheryl are on top with everything and very nice hosts!

What a lovely and unique experience it was to stay at the Stone School cottage. The accomodations were great as was the communication with our hosts. Very special. Thank you so much! :)

Our stay at this historic schoolhouse was terrific. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. We slept well there - as the two available large rooms up and down afforded flexible sleep areas. Beds comfy.
The kitchen was well equipped and the amenities such as foil, plastic wrap, tea, a Keurig machine, extra paper plates etc made our stay very convenient.
The history of the place is fascinating.
Many thanks!

This charming converted schoolhouse is well-supplied for the present day while reminding you of a bygone age. It's set among beautiful rural woods and pastures, private, but with ideal access to local attractions south, like Stockbridge and Lenox or north, like Williamstown and North Adams. The owners are extremely helpful and friendly, and they also simply allow you to enjoy your stay. A great place!
5.0 / 5.0
The Old Stone School was a truly exceptional place to stay - and the owners were also delightful people, willing to help and refer us to interesting places. We stayed two nights - it was big for the two of us, but decorated nicely and with a full downstairs that has all sorts of ephemera from the old schoolhouse days. Would stay again next time we are out at Tanglewood.
Heads up - the bathroom is on the first floor, the bedroom on the second. Minor inconvenience, but not possible to change it within the building structure. Don't let this deter you! It is a magical place. And we will visit again.

First time staying in a school house! The upstairs living quarters are akin to a large studio apartment--nicely appointed and well laid out. The hosts, Cheryl and Rich are very welcoming too!

Our short stay at the Stone School Cottage was wonderful. Rich was very responsive to a minor issue we had with the TV. The cottage was exactly as listed with an unusual layout (bathroom downstairs from the living area) but it wasn't a problem. It's located within a short distance of a lot of activities, restaurants, etc. We'll definitely stay again if we're back in the area.

We love the stone school - awesome location, great property and wonderful hosts! This is our second year coming and we'll be back next year!

We stayed with our 3 kids (2, 5, 7). The owners had a safety gate for our little ones and they enjoyed playing with all the toys and the actual school to play school in! We all slept upstairs (we brought a travel crib) with the older two children sharing the upstairs day bed (there are more beds downstairs but the kids preferred being with us). Having the kitchen and dining table was very convenient and the cottage had nice touches like soft towels and a well stocked coffee machine. The location is great for skiing. It’s under 10 mins to Jiminy and there are restaurants, a country store, and a coffee shop very close by. The owners are super helpful, flexible, and communicative.

The house was very clean, thoughtfully decorated and filled with history. The host was very responsive and made us feel welcome. There were a plenty of toys for my two kids to play with; they were never bored inside the house. The kitchen had everything you needed which my wife and I appreciated. Agreeing with with the prior reviewer that it was a perfect central base for exploring the Berkshire area. Overall, it was a special, unique experience.

Wonderful former schoolhouse, filled with interesting antique finds, furniture and decor - brought into the 21st century with care and a sensitive balance between preservation of historic character and modern conveniences to make our stay both comfortable and special. Rich was the perfect host, communicative and helpful but unobtrusive and respectful of our privacy. The location was a perfect central base for our weeklong exploration of the surrounding Berkshire region!

We stayed at this property Sept 9 - 11th, and it was wonderful! Staying in a historical building that is certainly beloved by the community was a unique experience. You can sit and read all about the history of the school which is also provided. The home was extremely clean and the owners put special touches like fresh cut flowers in all the rooms and it is beautifully decorated and welcoming. The setting is perfect near a horse farm and just a few minutes from Mt. Greylock which we hiked on Saturday. The owner is so nice and checks in to make sure you have everything you need. We will definitely stay there again, and I highly recommend this property.

Quiet, lovingly restored and designed, the loft-like space above the charming schoolroom in this historic stone building is a wonderful base for exploring the Berkshires. The hosts have thought of every comfort. Truly a gem.

Could not have been better - convenience to Lenox and Williamstown, privacy, great hosts. Good to be cool on a humid weekend.
5.0 / 5.0
I loved it. It is a very special place. We used it as a base for a cultural weekend. For Museums we went to Mass MoCA in North Adams, and the Clark in Williamstown. We also saw a dance performance at Jacobs Pillow, and on Saturday we saw the BSO at Tanglewood.
I pulled a hamstring the day before we left, so I was not up for hiking. However, Mt. Greylock started at the end of the road that we were on, and the Pittsfield state forest was only a short ride away, as was Jiminy peak, where in the past we hiked in all these locations.
Just a great place, and I will be looking to go there again next summer.

Stone house
We enjoyed our stay mostly we occupied the upstairs. Bathroom downstairs shower and toilet area a bit small. Stairs getting down we’re negotiable but a little tricky at night. Overall accommodations were as specified in Vrbo website. We were only hoping there would be less traffic outside of the house during the day. Farm tractors nearby at times. Owners were always very available checked on us periodically. They were very friendly and also left us with a nice bottle of wine. Sleeping at night was lovely with the windows open temperatures were perfect. Waking up to the sounds of neighing horses or roosters in the background. We would recommend for a couple getting away for a long weekend as we did.

Loved the history
Our family of four (2 adults, 2 teens) had a great stay. We loved the old school house, and the decor was so charming with information on the school's history and related decor--unique and fun! Hosts made lots of effort to make sure all the things you might need were there (place to charge devices from all the beds, for example). And they were very responsive, both before and during the stay. The kitchen and main sleeping area is upstairs, bathroom is downstairs, which was fine for us but could be an issue. Easy 10-15 minute drive to Jiminy Peak. Definitely would stay here again!

Like a cozy time machine
I stayed for two nights mid January 2022. It was cold and snowy, and while I enjoy the outdoors in the other three seasons, I was not interested in taking advantage of the beauty of the Berkshires in that weather. Thankfully the schoolhouse had everything I needed to enjoy a totally relaxing visit. The downstairs is like a trip back in time, but also a lovely place to hang out with huge, gorgeous windows letting in the winter light, a comfy day bed, and a desk. Upstairs is like it’s own large studio apartment and a good place to get comfy with some takeout and tv. If you’re looking for a surprisingly roomy spot for a quiet getaway, I’d highly recommend the school house.

This is such a wonderful place to stay--the location is unbelievable, the building is fascinating and homey, and the owners couldn't be more responsive.

Perfect mountain escape
The Stone School Cottage was an incredible find - beautiful, comfortable, well-appointed, super clean, and the softest bath towels I’ve ever encountered. Located on the road to Mt. Greylock, this gem was close enough to town to make grabbing essentials super convenient, but far enough out to provide the peace and quiet we were looking for. The farm down the street, with its collection of rescue animals (donkeys and alpacas and horses!), was an added bonus. Hosts Rich and Cheryl were just a text away. Really loved our weekend here.

A unique experience worth exploring
The other reviewers are spot-on when they say this school-converted-cottage takes you back in time. If you want to feel like you’re staying in small town America and you’ve been spoilt by the comforts of the city, you’ll love this place. It has everything you need for a weekend getaway. Rich communicated really well and made our check-in/check-out process really smooth. He also offered a late check out as there was no one else checking-in after us. We never really had issues during our stay.

Stone School Cottage is a Time Machine
If I had to describe this place in one word, it would be "Magical". The Stone School Cottage is a time machine that takes you back anywhere between 50-150+ years. By far the most unique place I have ever stayed at. I am pushing 30 and I felt like I was 7 again. The location is ideal for the Berkshire and walking distance from the entrance to Mount Greylock. The cottage is well equipped. Rich was an excellent host. Super communicative and attentive. I will most definitely be returning to this wonderful place.

Amazing cottage
We stayed at the Stone School Cottage for our 21st anniversary and had such an enjoyable stay. Communication prior to arrival was great. Our host Rich was extremely helpful and greeted us when we arrived. The cottage is an old one room school house and is tastefully done with period pieces. The classroom downstairs is filled with a lot of historical photos and written history and also has beautiful modern photos as well. The living quarters are upstairs with a four-poster bed and small kitchen (stairs are somewhat steep but have good handrails). The bathroom is downstairs and a little quirky in nature. Neither of these was a game breaker but something to consider if you have difficulty negotiating stairs. Very convenient location (25-30 minutes to Lenox and 20-25 minutes to Williamstown and a short drive to Greylock State Park). Neighbors have mini horses and alpacas within walking distance down the road which was a bonus for us as we are both horse/animal lovers. Would recommend this rental with two thumbs up (make that four thumbs up) and will definitely book again if/when planning a trip to the Berkshire’s.

We chose the stone school cottage as a base to pick up our kids from their different music camps (either in Vermont or nearby town), and then did two days touring, one to MassMoCA, and one to the nearby Mt. Greylock. The location & the house were ideal to our family of 5. The best part was to meet the hosts Rich and Cheryl -- very generous with their time, very responsive to our needs, and very thorough to stock kitchen items. Netflix is a plus to my 12 and 16 year olds. Our dog-loving daughter had a pleasure to meet and walked with their friendly dog Maya while we were chatting with Rick and Cheryl. If there is one thing to improve in the future, it is the stove which I had a hard time to put frying pan evenly, but if you don't cook much or use oven instead, it is not an issue. We certainly will rent again if wanting a air-conditioned place instead of campsite in Berkshires. Again, thank you very much Rich and Cheryl for providing such a unique place and we had a great stay!
