A wonderful stay! The manager was very responsive. We liked the many pleasant rooms to hang out in smaller groups for visiting and playing. The screened deck was a perfect place to enjoy dinner. The older folks sat at the dining room table. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. All around great house for our three generation family.

Christmas at Stockbridge
We could not have been happier. The house was walking distance to all shops, restaurants and attractions of the town of Stockbridge. House was large enough to comfortably accommodate 9 adults. Thoroughly enjoyed "Christmas in Stockbridge".

Wonderful home!
We really liked the way we felt welcomed to use this house. It was well equipped.
With numerous rooms children could be playing in one room, adults visiting in another and others watching the Olympics, all without feeling crowded. Sound barriers between rooms was quite good. Upstairs was quiet enough to sleep even with others downstairs finishing up the dishes.
An excellent rental!

Beautiful house and ideal location
This home has plenty of beds, a very spacious kitchen and an elegant dining room plus a beautiful study. We were able to walk to coffee shops, restaurants and shopping in Stockbridge. Easy drive to Tanglewood and Rockwell museum. Host was very quick to respond to questions. I will definitely book here again.

Amazing Girls Weekend at the Rectory
I stayed here with seven girlfriends, all aged 25-30, for a weekend, and we found it incredibly homey and nice. As a Catholic, it was lovely staying at the rectory, visiting the beautiful altar in the backyard, and knowing that any proceeds from our stay were going to a good cause. All the rooms have saint names, and there is a lot of thoughtful charm throughout. Samantha was very helpful and great at communicating through the entire process. Highly recommend this stay in the heart of Stockbridge, MA.

Great holiday stay
We had 3 generations of family staying here after the holidays and the home provided everything we needed - wonderful location right in town, comfortable rooms, and large living spaces to play games and catch up. The kids, parents and grandparents all had a great time!
