About this house rental

The Residence is a beautiful, secluded home in the Berkshire foothills. The 14-acre property includes hiking trails through the woods, a meadow, and a lovely babbling brook. Despite its secluded feel, the house just a short drive from many of the area's favorite attractions. The Residence provides a wonderful for base for enjoying all that the Berkshires have to offer, though guests may decide to spend much of their stay exploring the rustic beauty of the property itself.

The house gets beautiful sunlight and has a fireplace and a deck overlooking the woods. The property includes a separate ping pong room that owners may access. Interested guests may inquire about use of the “The Office”, a studio space that can be used for writing, art, or meditation; with prior notice, this space can usually be made available as well.

The house is conveniently located near many of the area's attractions, including the shops and restaurants of Great Barrington and Lenox, Stockbridge’s famous Red Lion Inn, and Tanglewood, the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. The Chesterwood museum and gardens are only a half mile down the road, and the Norman Rockwell museum just slightly further. For those who want to swim, the Stockbridge Town Beach and the Stockbridge Bowl are a short drive away. Winter guests may want to visit nearby Butternut Ski Resort - or just stay on the property and sled down the driveway.

The rental apartment adjoins the caretaker's apartment (it shares a wall, but has a separate entrance.) As mentioned above, guests may also access the ping pong room and, with prior arrangement, the Office, and are encouraged to explore the extensive grounds.

There is a washer and dryer in the unit for your use.

Each of the bedrooms were recently upgraded with new mattresses.

A little piece of paradise. Stunning setting and very comfortable accommodation. Love breakfast on the deck/porch. Perfect for Tanglewood and environs. Donna, our host was very helpful. Only thing missing were a few kitchen tools (vegetable peeler and colander. Hope to return next year. Donna, thank you for sharing your family’s wonderful home!

The Residence was the perfect Basecamp for our long weekend in the Berkshires. It had a mix of amenities that suited everyone in the family. The possibility of first floor living was a plus for my senior dog and I and the two spacious bedrooms upstairs worked well for the rest of the family. We visited to experience Stockbridge Christmas and the holiday events connected to the Main Street recreation. The weather was horrible on one of the days but coming back to the Residence and being able to dry our soaked winter gear in the dryer and light a fire using provided firewood was amazing. The home is only about 6-10 minutes away from many attractions including Main Street Stockbridge, the Norman Rockwell Museum, the Mount, and Naumkeag. If it wasn’t winter we would have loved to visit Chesterwood, a 5 minute walk up the road. Donna was very accommodating. She left us a loaf of bakery bread in the freezer, baggies for the dog, and allowed us to check in early (amazing since the road might have been challenging to navigate in the dark the first time around). Thanks for a wonderful stay.

The house and property made for a quiet and relaxing setting for myself and two friends. We thoroughly enjoyed morning runs on country roads and coffee on the deck listening to the birds. The house was very clean and cozy with a well stocked kitchen for cooking. Donna is a gracious and considerate host and readily answered all our questions about the property, restaurants and suggestions on things to do. I only wish we had more time to see it all!

Comfortable and spacious inside and out. Lots of history and we’ll lived in feel. Host very responsive. Well equipped and close to Tanglewood. The weather was very hot and the AC was adequate but not great.

We had a lovely stay while visiting Tanglewood. Donna was a lovely, thoughtful host during our stay. The property is beautiful and incredibly convenient to Tanglewood, Stockbridge, Lenox, and all the local sites. The house was well stocked and even thoughtfully had items for a infant/toddler (play pen, high chair, etc). I would definitely recommend staying here!

Our group of 2 couples enjoyed our stay on this woodsy property. Linda, the innkeeper, was exceptional. She allowed an early check-in, set up a hammock, left a delicious bread, and provided a rain shelter for Tanglewood. The house was clean and comfortable. It was fun to stay at the home of one of Tanglewood’s founders and original ticket office. We easily walked to Chesterwood and had access to Stockbridge and all of the Berkshire attractions. For those of a certain age, the vintage kitchen and bathrooms were reminiscent of bygone years. Thank you for sharing this special property.

We traveled with 4 adults, 2 kids under age 5, and a dog, and the house was perfect for us! The kitchen was well-equipped and Donna provided a high chair for our 2-year old. The bedrooms were comfortable and all linens and towels were provided. The kids loved exploring the property and playing near the stream. Highly recommended!
