Summary: This cottage was both architecturally interesting and exceptionally well maintained, unlike most of VBRO rental properties. The screened-in porch, king-sided bed, and master bathroom were incredibly comfortable. The host was very personable and helpful. The location was quiet, yet convenient to towns and sites in the Berkshire mountains. Highly recommended as an exceptional property.

Summary: Beautifully kept, quaint little space - perfect for a relaxing getaway with a small family/friend group or two couples. Very private even though it was in back of the owners' property. The space was thoughtfully arranged and had one of the most in-depth guides to the property and surrounding areas we've ever seen! Nick and Tiffany were great hosts - I would be surprised if they didn't work in hospitality. I would go back.

Summary: The Blue Elm was a perfect landing place for exploring the Berkshires for a few days. We were looking for somewhere peaceful, comfortable, and clean; Nick and Tiffany’s cottage delivered on all accounts. It was exceptionally clean; we’re the kinds of people who do an extra round of cleaning when checking into a hotel or rental and it was apparent that the surfaces of this home were legitimately cleaned prior to our arrival. The screened-in porch was lovely for unwinding and having a snack. The kitchen, though small, was thoughtfully appointed with the essentials, including properly sharpened knives! Thoughtful touches throughout, including benches in all the right places, large pump bottles of quality soaps, shampoos, etc., and plenty of reading material. The welcome binder wasn’t just a generic list of places in the area, but rather a list of hand-picked favorites complete with the reasons why Nick and Tiffany included them on the list. This property has the attention and care of someone’s personal home, just without the shared spaces. All of these details, combined with Nick’s professional attentiveness, helped make this a great stay.

Summary: If I could have given it more than 5 stars I would have. Beautiful, quiet area and the place is stunning. The gas fireplace in the dining area was great, has pretty much everything you could need and incredibly stylish (the retro fridge and microwave were very cool). Can’t speak to the pullout but the king in the master might have been the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in and the double shower is awesome. The hosts were friendly and responsive. Went to hike and the number of trails within 30 minutes was great, plus the Cinema 18 minutes away in Great Barrington came in handy on the day of biblical rain. Could not recommend this property more. I will be back.

Summary: From booking to check out we had an excellent experience. Nick and Tiffany were attentive and responsive hosts. The house/barn was clean, thoughtfully decorated and comfortable. It had everything we needed. The shower was exceptional, bed was comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. The welcome book was filled with helpful information including restaurant recommendations and area activities. We would go back in a heartbeat!
