Cozy Riverside Berkshires Retreat

Stay in our charming historic New England home right on the Housatonic river. This private half of a duplex offers river views, a fenced-in yard for relaxing outdoors, a fully equipped kitchen and easy access to the Berkshires. Downtown Great Barrington is a quick five minute drive and Tanglewood is only fifteen!
The real treat is Studley, the sweet and much‑loved resident cat and “host with the most,” who lives on the property and is always happy to greet guests.

Great location with nice space to hangout as a group - appreciated the music and games options. Comfortable space. Host was very responsive and checked in with us. Small bathroom for 4 people but nice big windows throughout the house for good light and great views. Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. .

The host was exceptional and so kind. The location was in close proximity to 3 quaint New England small towns whose downtowns had many restaurants and local shops to enjoy-Great Barrington (GB Eats for breakfast), Stockbridge (best shopping) and Lenox (exceptional dinner at Frankie’s Italian). The house looked updated on the outside but inside looked like early 1900s with a hint of Victorian influence. My only caution is for anyone with mobility issues as all 3 bedrooms and the only (very small) bathroom are on the second floor. The toilet sits low (below knee level) but a high step in is needed for the claw foot tub/shower. We stayed in mid Sept with highs in mid 70s and lows in the 50’s so it was reasonably comfortable even without AC by leaving windows open at night and using the fans provided during the day.
