Further details for this vacation house rental in Great Barrington, Massachusetts

Summer Rental of the house and apartment.: If you would like to rent the most beautiful house in the Berkshires for the months from June through August, you should rent this house. With it comes a separate apartment for your guests or parents or teenage son. The house has been dramatically decorated with original artwork, designer furniture, lavish rugs and drapery. The landscaping is beautiful, with seven Chinese Empress trees and various benches for meditation. The house has a magnificent South-West mountain view from decks that surround the living room, dining room and atrium. Light pours in through many huge windows in the cathedral ceilings in living room, dining room. There is an extraordinary master suit, with large walk-in closet and a study. The main floor has two beautifully decorated bedrooms with a slightly Asian flavor, and a lovely full bath, custom kitchen, washer/dryer, open floor plan living room/dining room, and atrium with a view of the decks and the mountains beyond.

Ten adults are easily accommodated for sleeping.: This house has a master bedroom with a queen sized bed. Outside the master bedroom, with a door between, there is a loft/study where there is a very comfortable couch that could easily sleep one large adult. On the main floor, there are two bedrooms.

Winter Rental

CTTERPS Connecticut
Review Submitted: May 17, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
Our family rented this beautiful home for the 2008/2009 winter and consider it some of the best money we have ever spent. The house feels like a secluded mountain cabin because of its amazing views of the Berkshires from the rear "wall of windows", but is still only 1.5 miles from Catamount ski resort and a 10 minute drive into trendy Great Barrington. We came up every weekend and holiday over the winter and felt like we were going on vacation each Friday. The seperate apartment in the basement provides the right amount of privacy for hosting overnight guests. The open layout of the house is great for entertaining and we have great memories of playing games around the wood burning stove or lesiurely dinners with friends around the dinner table. The iron claw-foot bathtub is perfect for relaxing and watching the snow fall out the window after skiing or a workout on the elliptical machine. We also enjoyed hiking behind the house along the jeep trail. If the property is that beautiful in winter, I am sure it is amazing in the summer and fall seasons.

Fantastic - We want to come back!!

Boston Pooles Boston
Review Submitted: October 28, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We were looking to celebrate my mother-in-law's birthday in a nice place where the children and grandchildren could fit comfortably. This place fit the bill and more. Far exceeding our expectations, it was more than perfect! The house was more beautiful in real life than in the pictures. It was so clean and artistically decorated.The kitchen was fully equipped with all we needed to make some delicious dinners. There was plenty of room for all of us to spread out and relax. The view from the living room was glorious.
We will definitely try to get back there and will recommend it to our friends who are looking for a getaway.

Perfect vacation stay

Patrickth New York, NY
Review Submitted: October 27, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
"Beautiful!" and "Wow!" are the first words from all of us as we walked into this house. The house is beautifully contructed. The combination of the home's design, the surrondings, and the peacefulness of the area made this is a perfect vacation stay.

The house is spacious and comfortable, and has everything you could need for cooking, games, TV, and lots of towels. The house has a separate apartment, which made it a very classy place for inviting guests during your trip.

The house is in a very quiet residental area. At night, you will only hear the winds and leaves with full of stars on the sky. Forget about traffic sounds, city lights, and a loud party next door, you can really relax here. The house is very close to Bash Bish Falls, which is A-Must to visit if you stay here.

Sharon was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay there. She made sure that we felt at home and always promptly replied to our requests and questions. (Thanks for making our family get together such a great time.)

We plan to return!!!

Fall Family Retreat

L&W from Chicago Chicago, IL USA
Review Submitted: October 14, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
My husband and I drove from Chicago, our daughter travelled from Boston, and we met for a week in Sharon’s Great Barrington home in late September. Over the weekend, our
son-in-law and his family joined us to celebrate two birthdays and one wedding anniversary.

Sharon’s home is beautiful and elegantly relaxing. I loved its textures—the wood, stone, and tile; the rugs and drapery that wonderfully complement each room. The original artwork is also quite intriguing. Obviously, much care and thought went to building and furnishing this lovely home. It’s set on a long, private drive and surrounded by towering pines, with a pond in the mid distance and the Berkshire hills as backdrop. I loved watching the swaying pines whenever the wind picked up.

Sharon is a wonderfully warm and generous owner. She showed us how the wood stove worked and promptly brought over a neat bundle of kindling. She also recommended one of her favorite restaurants, John Andrews, which features local produce and a pretty spectacular wine list. In Great Barrington we liked Fuel, the local coffee shop, and next door, Baba Louie’s Wood Fired Pizza. Its pizza and salads were worth the half-hour wait—they don’t take reservations. Our daughter liked her dinner at Bizen Sushi Bar; my husband and I were less enthusiastic. If you find yourself in Lee, the Cakewalk Bakery has wonderful sandwiches and pastry—the multigrain bread is remarkable.

On a picture-perfect fall day we visited the Hancock Shaker Village and the Norman Rockwell Museum and Studio, and on another such day we drove to North Adams to see MASS MoCA—such fun—much superior to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago. On another day, my daughter was delighted to find a prenatal yoga class in Great Barrington.

Sharon’s home is surrounded by great areas for walking. We enjoyed walking to the pond and down the quiet local roads. We tramped through a small part of the 12000 acre Nature Conservancy land. The terrain there is quite wild, and we literally had the place to ourselves. The Appalachian Trail is also very near the house.

After our outings, Sharon’s home was wonderful to return to. We enjoyed coffee and wine on the deck, family breakfast and dinner in the great room. My husband and daughter played some pretty competitive Boggle at the dining room table; sadly, we forgot the Scrabble.

Bring your book, camera, a yoga mat, perhaps. Gather your loved ones. Sharon’s Berkshire home is a joy.

Beautiful house, lovely owner, wonderful weekend

BillMcC Brooklyn, NY
Review Submitted: May 19, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We stayed here this past weekend and had an incredible experience. The house is gorgeous and quite unique. It is located in a beautiful part of the Berkshires and not far from the center of Great Barrington which is a charming little town. The owner is wonderful and was quite accommodating to us. We are planning a return trip as we found that this place truly exceeded our expectations.
