Great home and great host.
We loved this spacious and lovely log cabin overlooking the river which we enjoyed with family and friends. The setting in the Berkshires is just beautiful. The kitchen is well stocked and great for cooking. Also Melissa is an extremely attentive and responsive host and took care of the few issues that arose immediately. Many thanks!

Cozy Cabin
Lovely little cabin in the country. Fully stocked with everything you would need for cooking and relaxing. Only exception is the word "modern" in the description. The cabin is very traditional, with lots of traditional decor items and is very much a family cabin. We had a nice stay and enjoyed our time in the area!

Cabin in the woods
I surprised my wife and 2 teenage daughters with a relaxing getaway weekend with this amazing cabin in the woods. After an easy commute from CT, we enjoyed the drive through the woods on a dirt road to the house itself. We were very happy with our choice in selecting this listing and had an amazing time! The owner was very friendly and answered any questions we had in a timely manner. Everything that you needed was available including coffee, tea, sheets and towels, firewood, etc. It is a short drive to both Catamount and Butternut ski resorts and there are plenty of dining options within a 15-20 minute drive. I would highly recommend staying here.

Cool cabin in the woods. Great location, great price, great communication with owner, well stocked with necessities. Easy check in/ out. Plenty of room for 10 (4 adults - 6 kids). Games/ puzzles/ Handmade chess/ checkerboard table will keep you busy by the fireplace. Location - Everything is an easy 15-20 min away. Brewery/ Downtown Great Barrington/ Shops/ Outlets/ Catamount Mountain. Owner Melissa super responsive and easy to communicate with. Will definitely keep as option for another stay.

Hidden gem
This was such an adorable and secluded little property. We went with children and friends to go tubing at Butternut nearby. The house was absolutely perfect for us. It has a large property, and was so cozy and rustic. A great escape from the city, and exactly what we were looking for. The owners were lovely and the house was clean. Would absolutely recommend. We had an amazing weekend.
