This property met all our expectations. It was easy to loccate and provided an unspoiled lakeside view as described. The second-floor apartment, though small, was cozy and comfortably furnished. Restaurants, groceries, points of interest and hiking trails all within close proximity. Great "leaf-peeping" during our stay!

Bee's place is in a wonderful location situated along the Housatonic River. With it being central to many of the towns of The Berkshires it's a perfect option for those who love to get out and explore. There's nearby hiking trails, restaurants and shopping. We found the apartment to be comfortable and stocked well with all that you need to feel at home.

Lovely place with great fishing, Kayaking and proximity to hiking and all Berkshire Bliss!

Very nice, country style, 2-bedroom. Immaculately clean, well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds. Whether sitting at the dining table or the small deck the view of the Housatonic River is beautiful. Conveniently located between Great Barrington and Stockbridge make sit a perfect spot for a leisurely breakfast and then head out for a day in the Berkshires.

I loved this upstairs apartment in an old mill manager's house! Its view of the Housatonic River, especially in the morning with the mist rising around the paddling geese was serene while eating croissants from the Berkshire Mountain Bakery 1/4 mile up the road. Evenings with a cheese board on the deck's table were also ideal. The town of Great Barrington is about 10 minutes away, with many cute shops to check out. Lenox, West Stockbridge and other Berkshire towns are also close by. I strongly advise using an app like Waze to get around. There are so many roads named Lenox and Stockbridge that it was very easy to get lost. I didn't realize how many places of interest would be closed after (well-after) Labor Day. I found plenty to see anyway (the Norman Rockwell Museum is quite close, maybe 15 minutes away), so a second trip to the area will be in order to check out the things I missed. The king-sized bed was very comfortable. The only suggestion I have is to get a shower curtain with magnets on the bottom so it doesn't billow around the shower-er. Overall, a great place to stay with a very helpful and gracious host. Thank you! Neal

Beautiful location on the pond. This house has a lot of personality.

Apt very comfortable for 2 people. Charming, clean and perfect location for activities and dining in the area. The view is fantastic. Kitchen needs some upgrade as not all burners on stove we’re useable and could use a few more pots and pans. Owners couldn’t be nicer and more responsive. Overall, excellent property.

We had a wonderful time. Everything as advertised.

Lee and Chris have been wonderful hosts and it think they tried to think of everything to make our visit comfortable. The house is clean and simple. We loved breakfast on the deck overlooking the river. A few times we saw bald eagles flying past. The River House, as they call it, occasionally hosts free live music on Friday nights outdoors under the trees by the river edge. They provide chairs, you bring the wine and snacks. They have a Roku hooked up to the TV so you can stream anything. The property includes easy weed free access to the river, and we brought our own kayaks. We enjoyed kayaking in the slow current, and we saw a beaver in the wild about 1/2 mile upstream from the house. (That was very exciting for me, as I grew up in a suburban area and had never seen one on the wild before.) The Internet speed is mostly adequate but not fast, and occasional freezes would occur. We were able to stream video without problems. Verizon cell signal was one bar inside the house, but with WiFi calling active we had no problem making and receiving calls once the phone connected to WiFi. Overall we were very happy and would like to return.

The apartment is quite charming and nicely decorated with all the amenities my husband and I needed. We stayed in mid June when there was no road noise at night. The view of the river is spectacular and intimate. It was very relaxing sitting on the deck looking at the birds and the fish. The apartment is in a very convenient location close to the Berkshire Mountain Bakery and easy to get to other parts of the Berkshires we enjoy.

Couldn't be any closer to the water. We spent a lot of time on the deck looking out at the water. Loved walking to wonderful bakery. Convenient location with quick drive to GB.

This place was just a described, situated right on the slow moving Housatonic with lovely views from the deck. Good hiking and good restaurants nearby. The place is clean, tidy and nicely decorated. Bee is a pleasant and responsive host.

This is a great little apartment right on the Housatonic. Beautiful view right from the deck which we enjoyed. The apartment is well equipped and the location is great. Easy access to Great Barrington with Stockbridge, Lee and Lenox nearby. Bee was very easy to deal with - would recommend.

My husband and I had an amazing stay at the river house! We spent a long weekend there and the apartment was clean, cute and had a beautiful view of the lake, where we watched the sunset every night. The location is great, only a few minutes to the town of Great Barrington and a 10 minute drive to Butternut Ski Resort, where we had a ton of fun. Bee was a great host and very communicative and quick to respond when we had any questions. Highly recommend!

My wife and I had a wonderful time at the Riverhouse. This is an antique mill house located on the edge of the Housatonic River. Accommodations are modest and nostalgic, and also extremely clean. The renter was responsive and very helpful when contacted, and made us feel completely welcome and at ease. This rental is conveniently located to cultural, historical and outdoor activities. It's also a wonderful place to just relax. Perhaps the greatest aspect is the view of the river and the forest beyond. With large windows across the back of the living area, and your own walk out deck, it's absolutely amazing! We are already planning to come back.

Just a delightful little spot, gave us just what we needed before winter really kicks into high gear. The view is restorative, the bathtub is incredible. Comfy bed, kitchen had most everything we needed to make meals happen. There are stores close enough that making a quick run for anything we forgot wasn't a hassle. Enjoyed the grill, if it was a little warmer we would have really dug on the deck. Roku made watching streaming services easy for night. Great stargazing right out the back door. Really can't say enough about it, would love to stay here again.

It was great spot for my wife and I. Wonderful view of the river and great spot near hikes. Everything was great!

Very clean & snug, nicely decorated, exactly as shown/described. We had a great time!

We stayed in the riverhouse for a few nights this fall. The view from the back deck is gorgeous. The house feels secluded but is actually very close the house is walking distance to a great bakery (walking distance), restaurants in Great Barrington (< 10 minute drive), and hiking at Monument Mountain (< 5 minute drive).

Our time at the River House met our expectations and more! The apartment was pleasant, clean and welcoming. The kitchen had everything we needed, there were plenty of linens and the beds were very comfortable. The big picture window overlooked the Housatonic River so whether we were inside or outside on the deck, we had a beautiful view. The owners made sure we had everything we needed and responded quickly to any questions we had. We will keep this place on our list of places to return to. We would also recommend the River House to our family and friends.

Great.

Had a wonderful time watching the river go by during a long weekend. Got to see a bald eagle! Location was excellent, apartment was tidy and the perfect size for us.

Property was clean and tidy. This worked very well for our purposes.

Enchanting upper floor of a cottage on the shores of the Housatonic River, private and peaceful yet convenient to the many wonderful activities the Berkshires have to offer. There's a lovely porch where you can watch the sunset and later at night, see the Milky Way reflected in the river. The place is immaculate and thoughtfully equipped. Even the dishes are beautiful. Original art on the walls, handmade duvets for the beds...

Great location. Wonderful view. Comfy beds. Clawfoot tub!

Beautifully restored apartment with many thoughtful and artistic touches. We found everything we needed. Spotlessly clean. Great use of space and incredible view.

The space was perfect for me and my girlfriend. The kitchen had all the necessities for cooking. It was just close enough to town for us to easily get anything we could have needed though the house was fully stocked with all the basics and even a few extras we had forgotten ourselves! It was clean and well kept and even historical. The view was spectacular and the owners always made themselves available for anything we could have needed. They even left a little book with places to eat and things to do. Overall a great experience and if we go back to Great Barrington we would not hesitate to stay there for another trip. Very, very impressed.

This was my 3rd stay at Riverhouse, enchanting as ever! Immaculately clean, well appointed airy overlooking the widest part of the Housatonic River. Sunsets are stunning, birds glide in and out. Easy walk to town or the legendary Berkshire Mountain Bakery. Only minor complaint: LR furnishings are limited and there's no comfy way to stretch out and read, except for in bed. This place has my heart.

Along this stretch of the Housatonic River, this vacation rental is the only home that's right on the river, making for spectacular & unobstructed views. There are the islands where geese, blackbirds, & a heron hang out, & thick woods on the other side of the river. Add to that a very bright & pleasant 2 bedroom apartment . . . + nearby Great Barrington, Tanglewood, Jacob's Pillow, & Lenox. Oh, then there's the ultimate attraction, a bakery 1/2 mile up the road. A great spot . . . delightfully unique.

We stayed at the Riverhouse for two and a half weeks this autumn. We loved the quite retreat but so close to a lot of great attractions and activities. Perfect choice for a relaxing getaway with options for activities when you choose. Great coffee just a hop and a skip down the road.

We stayed at the Riverhouse for two separate weeks over the summer. The view of the river is very beautiful and tranquil. The Riverhouse is very comfortably furnished and immaculately clean. It contains everything you need for an easy stay. Tanglewood and other venues are an easy drive away. The best croissants are a short stroll down the road. Riverhouse is the perfect choice for vacation.

DON'T RENT THIS PLACE...so that we can have it all to ourselves! Obviously, this is said in jest. We just loved the apartment. It offered a great view of Rising Pond through the picture window. Check out the great sunsets from the deck, read a book, have coffee there in the morning.Both bedrooms were spacious, the kitchen well stocked, the bathroom bright with many towels and the place was spotless. You are located in wonderful Housatonic, a quiet,quaint, yet central location. Have breakfast and maybe dinner at low cost, incredibly good Main and Pleasant. Drive 15 minutes to Beartown State Park/Benedict Pond, a great place to hike or swim. Make sure to stop at Holts Farm for fantastic sandwiches. You are 15 minute from Tanglewood and Lenox on low trafficked Rte 183, and minutes from the Rockwell Museum.
