A college friends' retreat was fantastic, in part due to the location, cleanliness and amenities in this 3 bedroom house. Furniture was comfortable and kitchen was stocked with everything we needed.
Julie is an excellent host. We love the location near a path in the woods along a lovely stream. The house is warm and well appointed. Thank you Julie !
We had a wonderful time in this home. It accommodated our family of 4 easily. Several of us had to work the first day there and there were ample quiet spots and quality wifi for us. So easy to walk to town to restaurants etc
For the second consecutive year, we stayed here more than three weeks, which tells you all you need to know. And we already booked next year. Beautiful home with a beautiful garden, and one of the best locations in the Berkshires, with trailheads at the end of the driveway and many popular destinations within ten minutes.
We had a a wonderful stay at Julie’s home! Everything was perfect…the house felt like a home and the location was perfect for our all to short mini reunion!!
Arrival was well above expectations! Close to town, but nicely secluded. It felt welcoming as soon as we walked in. We would definitely stay here again.
We loved this property. It was a great location walking distance to hiking/walking trails and downtown Stockbridge. The place was fully stocked, updated and cozy! It was a great place to spend a weekend reconnecting with our cousins.
This adorable home in Stockbridge is the perfect place to stay in Stockbridge. Julie provided everything we needed and we really appreciated the quality of the dishes and wine glasses. The front porch is ideal for coffee in the morning and the fire pit was fun a great place to relax in the evening. Convenient to everything. Thanks Julie!
A wonderful stay. The property was well appointed, in a quiet and peaceful location, but ideally suited for easy access to all Berkshire destinations. Communication with Julie was pleasant, prompt and helpful. Directions and instructions were clear. We had no issues during our stay, which made for a pleasant and productive visit for work and recreation. We hope to return another time.
Julie’s home is a wonderful base for exploring all the Berkshires have to offer, and then returning to a special, comfortable, incredibly convenient home away from home. Being able to walk to Stockbridge Main Street, or hike the Ice Glen trail, or quickly come home after hearing a glorious concert at Tanglewood—this special home offers all that snd more. We look forward to returning in the years ahead! Absolutely 5 stars!!
At the end of a dead-end street but only two blocks from the center of Stockbridge, this century-old charmer may be the best-kept and best-supplied rental in the Berkshires. We stayed a month(!) and loved it. The location is unbeatable, an easy walk from the Red Lion and within 15 minutes of Tanglewood, The Mount, the Rockwell museum and other attractions. Four local trails begin 100 feet away, including the Ice Glen. A beautiful, productive garden awaits, and the screened front porch may be the highlight (in summer). Owner Julie is amazing, not only responding quickly but solving any problem beyond expectations. There’s no elevator, so the stairs will provide your exercise. You can’t beat this place.
Great stay in a well appointed house close to trails, Stockbridge center, and a quick car trip to Lenox, Great Barrington, Tanglewood, Jacobs Pillow, and Shakespeare & Co. we enjoyed the morning walks, coffee at the Lost Lamb, drinks at the Red Lion Inn, dance at Jacob’s Pillow, music at Tanglewood, ice cream at High Lawn Farm, and just that Berkshire vibe!
The property is absolutely beautiful and extremely well appointed. It is even more beautiful than the photos. It is in a quiet and central location. Julie, the host is attentive, professional and very helpful. I will be coning back for sure.
This home was meticulously decorated and set up for the utmost comfort of renters. The location is amazing with a forest path across the street that leads to Stockbridge center. Comfy beds and living area! Thank you!
This is a gem of a house. It is at the end of a dead end street and right next to a nature preserve, so quiet is the key word. Everything from communication with owner to arrival and departure was flawless. There are lovely treats and touches that made our stay so special - snacks, candy, excellent AC and super comfortable beds. Location is perfect for exploring area. We hope to return.
My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Julie's. House instructions were very clear and Julie was very responsive to all questions .The house is very spacious and cozy. Beds were comfortable and nice to see quality linens. I loved the fact you could walk to town and quicker through the secret path. AC was in every room and we did use it! Would definitely stay again.
This property was incredible! Ideal house and location for our group of five high school friends celebrating our 40th Girls' Weekend. Julie is the perfect host - so accommodating and easy to work with. Do not hesitate to reserve this house.
Julie’s home was perfect for our two week Berkshires adventures. Everything in the house is tasteful and comfortable, the location is perfect for experiencing the highlights of the Berkshires (including Tanglewood,the Clark in Williamstown, theater in Pittsfield, etc,). Julie is a thoughtful and responsive host. We cannot wait to return again next summer to this wonderful home!
My mother, sisters and I decided to get tickets to hear the Pops at Tanglewood and chose to stay this home. It was nothing short of perfection! Great location - close to everything, yet a feeling of off the beaten path. The house was spotless and the furnishings were chic and timeless. We only wish we’d had more time to enjoy the fire pit in the back yard. We hope to be back - soon!
