We had an amazing time with my family here, we had all different ages from 76 - 6 that had a great time. Kate was a wonderful host and responded immediately to a question we had, she also provided so many suggestions of things to do and places to eat in the surrounding areas. The house is very large and decorated beautifully! The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook/eat with. There were many different places outdoor to sit and relax. We also liked taking a hike down to the lake. Overall I would highly recommend staying here.

Delightful Experience/Amazing Property!
Our stay at Kate's house was nothing short of spectacular! The interior is so thoughtfully designed and we had fun picking our favorite bedrooms. There was more than enough space for 10 of us and we felt right at home the moment we walked in. As warm and inviting as the inside is, what also really sets the house apart are the outdoor amenities. There is an awesome firepit area in the backyard, elevated deck with seating, and a beautiful lake right behind the house. We all loved walking the trail, listening to the birds, and seeing all the pretty wildflowers. It was so peaceful. Kate was such a gracious host too. She checked on us and offered ideas for other things to do near Williamstown. The house and property were just perfect and we will absolutely be returning for future visits.
