The house was clean and quaint and the property is on a nice quiet street. The owners were super quick responding to our texts and answered the phone a couple of times the first day for questions on the tv/internet. We appreciated that they notified us when they came up to stay in their main house over the weekend. The location is exceptional, close to the Berkshires, Kripalu, Hudson and state parks. It's an easy walk to the town, which has a good supermarket, a liquor store, coffee shop, gift shops and a bar/restaurant (Hillsdale house). We cooked dinner in the house most nights with no issues. We met Dan, the owner, who is nice and laid back. A fabulous getaway for the week and will likely look to book again.

The home was very comfortable and had everything we needed. It was also a very quiet neighborhood but within walking distance of everything in the town. We were able to meet our hosts and they were lovely. Would definitely recommend this place

Our family of 4 (two teens) had a great stay at Dan and Anita's Hillsdale carriage house. The property was immaculate, cozy, and the bedrooms were quite roomy. Less than 10 min from Catamount for skiing and 15 min to Great Barrington. We enjoyed relaxing in the rustic style living area with exposed beams at the end of the day. The kitchen is small but worked fine for us as we did not plan to do much involved cooking. The beds are quite firm, almost like a futon, which can be a plus depending on your preference. It was a bit firm for me but my husband loved it. Very quiet and peaceful, and communicating with Dan was a breeze. A lovely stay!

My sister, cousin and I stayed here for a kid/husband free weekend. The house was clean, private, and within short walking distance of 2 restaurants and one cafe, as well as a grocery store, and a cute selection of small shops. The cidery and a distillery, as well as several hiking trails, were nearby. The house had spacious bedrooms, with firm, solid beds and linens. The upstairs was large and airy with a small full kitchen and comfy sofa. There was a washer, dryer. Our favorite spaces were the second floor deck that felt like a treehouse, and a secluded first floor covered back porch.
