Quaint, quiet getaway spot

Jessica's spot is adorable and tidy, at the end of a quiet, shady lane, with lots of peace and privacy. It was a hot, muggy weekend but there were 2 window units and extra fans to keep us comfortable. The house is well-appointed—we had a busy schedule and were sad we didn't have a chance to use the lovely outdoor fire pit area. Good communication after a minor mixup. Would definitely stay again!

Ballet recital weekend

We liked the property very much. Great yard, shady and private. Nice that the grill was new. My only wish is that there was a window a/c unit in the bedrooms. We were hot! The fans provided were not enough. Other than that it was a very nice stay. Thank you.

Stay in the mountains

We really enjoyed our stay at the Home in the Woods. We stayed for 1 night on the way to Amherst for a graduation. The home is very cozy and clean. Jessica was easy to communicate with and the check-in/check out process was simple. Highly recommend!
