Thanksgiving in the mountains

Submitted: November 29, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
Dear Warren,

Our stay exceeded our expectations!  Your property was all that we hoped for and more.  The accommodations were heavenly.  Contemporary and tranquil at the same time.   Thanks to your provisions, we were able to feed seven people every day as well as provide a Thanksgiving dinner beyond all expectations!  

We enjoyed the call of coyotes each evening, and the Saturday after Thanksgiving observed the visitation of more than a dozen wild turkey!

The walking trails in Middlefield were perfect for our needs, accommodating a variety of ages and a very expectant mother.  We enjoyed the artwork in your home as well as the reading materials.  Guido's in Pittsfield satisfied our grocery needs, and the outlets in Lee our Black Friday needs.

Thank you!

Regards,

Wendy

Great House, Beautiful Setting

5 of 5
Submitted: October 11, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
Although our review is a bit belated it does not take away from the fact that we had a great time staying at the house. The property and setting are beautiful. The house is great, plenty of room, airy, sunny and better equipped than just about any place we ever stayed. Warren, the owner, was a pleasure to deal with - returned our deposit in approximately one week. We definitely plan to stay here again!

Lovely House, Beautiful Location

5 of 5
Submitted: July 18, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
We loved our stay here and can't wait to return. The listing was just as described and in some instances, much better. There were three generations to please in our group and from the deck with the incredible views, to the pond with frogs and fish, to the field and assorted sports equipment available in the basement, there was something to make everyone happy.
The owner was very responsive and helpful and the neighbor checked in on us as well. We were there during very hot weather, but the house cooled off quickly in the evening with the windows open.
We highly recommend this house for anyone who is looking for a quiet and peaceful location.

We loved this house!

5 of 5
Submitted: July 25, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
We loved this house!
It is actually nicer than the pictures. The house was roomy, very clean, stylish and well maintained. Everything worked and the kitchen was very well supplied. The beds were super comfortable and included high end linens, which eas a lovely touch.

The setting is breathtaking-peaceful and quiet. The kids had a very nice time swimming and rowing in the pond. We had several great barbecues on the back deck - I think the large rear-facing deck with the great views was one of the highlights of the house which is under represented in the pictures.

The house is quite remote, a bit of a drive to the nearest gas or groceries, but that is what we wanted, so not an issue for us.

The owner was very friendly and helpful. Returned the deposit promptly, etc.

I would definitely rent again or recommend it.

September Weekend

Submitted: October 11, 2010 Stayed: September 2010
Hi Warren,
My friends & I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Middlefield house. Everything about it was first rate... the beautiful property, the ?interesting furnishings, the fantastic shower fixtures, the view, & even the sensor lights that came on as we pulled into the driveway after dark. We added some brochures to your binder, from points of interest in the area. It was a wonderful weekend for us, made even better by staying in your lovely house.
Many thanks,
Rosemary
