3 Generation Ladies Weekend
My daughter, granddaughter and I spent a wonderful weekend at this home. We enjoyed every second of the view, wildlife, peacefulness, and each other. We built puzzles, cooked wonderful meals, and relaxed. Beautiful home, perfectly kept, fun amenities, and wonderful hosts! We highly recommend.

Pick this place for leaf peeping
Hosts have thought of everything—bottle water, creamer, birthday candles, readers in case you forgot your glasses, binoculars, paper plates, flashlights, multiple hair dryers, etc, etc. Very clean, gorgeously decorated, beautiful property. Lots of amenities—fun, large game room, fireplace, wonderful back porch with grill and fire table, fully adjustable (up/down/feet up/dowm) master bed. Beautiful views, lots of Fall colors, close to Mohawk state park, West Cornwall covered bridges, cute little shops. We spent half our trip leaf peeping/going to orchards/baking apple pie and we spent one day commuting into Brooklyn and the drive was beautiful. 2.5 hrs from Brooklyn, 1.5 hrs from teeny tiny little Tweed New Haven airport where Avelo air has great deals on flights. Highly recommend staying at this lovely house with great views and amenities.

Charming Mountain Retreat
This is our second year staying with at Karen and Larry’s property and it did not disappoint. They are incredible hosts and their home is conveniently located near the Lime Rock Track (less than 3 miles). It’s a beautiful and peaceful setting and extremely comfortable home. We highly recommend.

Beautiful view + wildlife
The photos online do not do it justice. The deck and view are incredible especially at sunset. We only had one good sunset unfortunately as rain clouds rolled in on our second evening / night. Lots of deer roaming, a few bats, a frog and a black squirrel were also spotted around too. Overall a beautiful house inside and out accommodated by amazing hosts! Highly recommend this place

I don’t think you could ask for a better rental. Perfect picturesque location, large clean house, and thoughtful owners who equipped it with everything we could possibly need (and more) for our weekend stay over New Years.

A perfect and magical house!
Everything about this beautiful house was absolutely perfect! First of course is the extraordinary view. We saw it at Christmas time, and it was mesmerizing and enchanting, even without snow. The light and clouds put on a show, illuminated and transforming the different mountain ridges and peaks all day long. On the horizon to the north is the imposing silhouette of Mount Washington. So far it is the most spectacular view I have ever seen in the Berkshires, or from a Vrbo rental anywhere. There was abundant wildlife, including a family of five bluebirds, hawks and deer. Coyote and Canada geese made us feel we were deep in Nature. At the same time, we were minutes away from civilization, such as the picture perfect towns of Falls Village and Salisbury, and the restaurants of Litchfield. My adult children adored skiing at the incredibly quaint Mohawk Mountain. The farms and woods and colonial architecture in the area are extremely picturesque, including on the road on which this property is located. Equally perfect was the exceptional hospitality of the owners. They furnish the house to anticipate your every need. I felt I was at a luxury resort! In our case, there was a Christmas tree, a fireplace ready to be lit, a notably generous welcome basket of goodies, coffee and tea galore, etc, etc. The pictures do not do justice to the superbly well maintained and well laid out house. Everything feels fresh and clean beyond belief. Thank you Karen and Larry!!

We had a great time. We enjoyed sipping coffee in the mornings and looking out over the mountains. Sunsets were gorgeous. Wonderful family time with the kids in the basement...playing games, watching movies, putting together puzzles. Close proximity to skiing and beautiful drives through the countryside. Thanks so much for allowing us to stay and make memories!

Christmas Getaway
This home is wonderful. Our hosts thought of everything. It was decorated including a Christmas tree. There we’re fresh flowers, a goodie basket, a supply of tea and coffee, half and half in the refrigerator, and the fire prepared to light. We really enjoyed the views. The area was fun to explore. We will consider returning for a summer music festival. Very comfortable. Thanks for a very relaxing three days.
