We had an extended family group (14) with three generations stay at the house for an extra long weekend. Everyone had a great time. We played air hockey, pinball and charades inside, went walking on the trails and around the pond outside, and went to Jiminy Peak for skiing. The house was excellent, the grounds interesting and varied, and the location was nice. I highly recommend this house. Thanks Laurie.

Wonderfu family vacation

Our very large family had a wonderful vacation at this gorgeous home. The house was sparkling clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We swam in the beautiful pool, hiked the many trails and cooked lots of meals in the huge kitchen. Laurie and Mark met us at check in and made us feel at home.
There was plenty to do both at the house and in the surrounding area for everyone. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and gladly recommend it to anyone looking for a lovely getaway.

Mid-June Family Reunion, 2012

4 of 5
Submitted: September 10, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
I, being the grandmother, took the Berkshire Country Estate House for a family reunion -- a total of 6 people since the grandsons could not join us. It was spacious and comfortable and provided us all with both private and together time. We very much enjoyed touring to the small town venues during the day and spent our evenings together either watching movies, reading, or just relaxing and talking. Usually we unwound by swimming in the lovely pool. We enjoyed both the house and the marvelous setting. Being limited in time, we didn't do as much as we would have liked, so needed more time. On the night of our arrival, our host, Mark, provided us with a catered communal birthday party (inasmuch as we are seldom together on birthdays) and it was a great way to begin our holiday together!
