Summary: We had a great stay at this cozy & comfortable two bedroom apartment. The property was perfectly located - just a couple minutes from Great Barrington & Monument Mountain & close to Stockbridge, Lenox, & Lee. The view from the back deck overlooking the lake was beautiful, especially in the morning & late afternoon sunlight. Though we never met Bee in person, she was very welcoming & communicative before and during our stay.

Summary: We throughly enjoyed our mini Berkshire getaway at this cute property. Check in and out was very easy. Property owner was responsive when we had a question. We enjoyed an evening bottle of wine on the back balcony-gorgeous views.

Summary: Bee couldn't have been more responsive, even though she was in the hospital after an accident! The cottage itself featured a well equipped kitchen, and we found ourselves eating in and not going out--as it was so pleasant to eat on the 2nd floor deck and watch the sun set. The apartment has a cooling cross breeze. We came with my 92-year old mother (fully mobile--there are steps) and she went hiking w/ my husband while I was in rehearsals. Location was excellent with easy access to Lenox, Stockbridge, Tanglewood etc. no shortage of things to do. There was a great bakery in walking distance, and trails for hiking nearby. Also a farmstand with delicious just picked berries. We all left feeling emotionally and physically fulfilled and happy. I hope to stay here next time I come for a vocal workshop in the area.

Summary: Location perfect for our needs. View from Deck is special. The Housatonic feeds into the pond and there is a lot of wildlife to see. The deck is good for a couple. Tight for more. You can only use the stairs to go below for emergency as it leads to the bottom deck. It was very hot when we stayed. It took 3 hours to cool the apartment when it’s 95 degrees out. There are only two small window units and a few fans. One bedroom is without. It did not affect our stay since we only used one bedroom. The floors are uneven and I recommend anyone with balance issues consider this. There are narrow stairs leading to the second floor unit. We had trouble with the tv and our host had it fixed the next day. The toaster was fussy or not working. I forgot to report that. The kitchen has most items you’ll need. The stove eyes are all downhill… interesting to cook on. Plenty of soap, detergent for dishwasher , bath towels, and paper towels, to etc. You are between the two best spots for organic produce and baked bread. Both a short distance. The home is right on the road. The bedrooms are right next to it. We enjoyed our stay for value and location.

Summary: We stayed at this property for 3 nights. We were 4 adults and we were very comfortable. Communication with the owners was excellent. Great location for skiing at Butternut. We had one of the best dinners we have ever had at Adam’s Cafe in Great Barrington. I would love to come back in warmer weather and see more of the area. I definitely recommend this booking. .

Summary: 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!
