We wanted to rent a house in the general Great Barrington area in mid-December, and this is an outstanding vacation rental for the price and time of year. The house was clean and fresh, good beds, everything works, no unpleasant surprises. We would rent this property again. The owners did a great job with the instructions, rules and local interests. Anyone else renting this property, I'd want you to know that the driveway is VERY hard to see, we drove into the driveways of both houses on either side of this rental property before we could see where our driveway was. To be fair, 9 inches of snow had fallen the day before. I would want other renters to know that the entrance to the property is in the BACK (owners, take note), so you would not end up like tromping through deep snow to the front door and wondering if we are still in the wrong place, that having been missing from the instructions. I'd advise the owners to place a cheap show shovel in the lean-to out back where the broom was all we had to clear a way into the house, as long as the snow removers are running late (we arrived late afternoon). But you don't travel to the mountains in winter and expect everything, we didn't, and seeing this region with a fresh blanket of snow, all dressed up for the holidays, made it a great trip. - John

David and Yasmin were easy to communicate with and had great recommendations for the area. We had 5 adults in town for a show at Tanglewood and we all (plus a dog!) found the house plenty roomy and comfortable. Area was buggy but we brought our own citronella candles and sitting outside was very pleasant - the sky was so clear and full of stars our first night! Perfect accommodations and location for our trip.

The backyard was idyllic. Overlooking a dairy farm and wildflowers. The property was clean. However 5 towels for 4 adults for 4 was unsatisfactory. Ended up using ‘hand towels’ for washcloths. The shower/tub arrangement was negligent on the owner’s part. I’m 83 years old and there was a 24”-28” step over the side of the biggest tub I have ever seen to stand under a shower head from the ceiling without any non-skid footing. I had to use a local friend’s bathroom to bathe. I know that feature should have been disclosed prior to my renting. Please, the a/c was one wall unit in the kitchen. One fan available. We roasted upstairs. I had booked for a pet, but he passed away 2 weeks prior to our stay. No pets. Great winter rental for the young.

This is a great location for a getaway in Western Massachusetts! The house is spacious with everything you need, the outdoor space is near perfect, and the towns nearby are picturesque. Yasmin was so friendly and responsive & the check-in process was smooth. We visited on a particularly warm weekend and were concerned because the property has no cooling or fans in most of the rooms, but found the farmhouse to be so comfortable even on a 94 degree day! We enjoyed our stay and would be happy to return again!

Perfect location, lovely house. Enjoyed my stay and will visit again.

Our stay at this cozy house was lovely. It is on an open patch of property and quite private. If you have children, there are stairs to negotiate. The rooms are spacious and comfortable with a full kitchen. The town of Great Barrington is just 10 minutes away with lots of options for shops and dining. The paths near the house are delightful for short hikes. We would return for sure.

Davids's house was just as described. The location is very close to Catamount and made trips back and forth with little ones very simple. There is a ton of space with a family of 4, so it never felt crowded with all our ski stuff. A couple more chairs around the fire area would add to the charm. Housekeeping was easy to reach and helpful. We had a peaceful weekend away to ski.

We enjoyed our stay at the house. Convenient location to the ski mountains and easy check in process. The heat works great, especially upstairs and the shower tub made for great memories. If the coffee pot is upgraded to a larger size, we will definitely be return visitors! Thank you for the great weekend!!

Great location to catamount mountain. Overall the house was clean a little outdated. Shower is in the Jacuzzi tub which can be difficult for certain people to get in-and-out of. If you're looking to a skiing perfect location. Please feel free to contact with other details.

David's house was perfect for our small group of 3 adults and 2 kids. It is just 5 minutes from Catamount Ski Resort and 15 minutes from Ski Butternut. The house is simply furnished but comfortable. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs and 1 downstairs. The full bathroom is upstairs and the shower is in the jacuzzi tub so you have to be careful climbing in and out. Kitchen is stocked for cooking simple meals. There is no dishwasher which was fine for us as we ate out for lunch and dinner. The backyard was great for exercising our dogs. Overall a very comfortable stay for our ski trip.
