Fantastic weekend getaway

We had an absolutely lovely time staying at this property! It’s an adorable antique home that has been beautifully renovated while still keeping its historic charm. It was very clean and was wonderfully set up for 2 couples and 5 children of varying ages. The hot tub was a nice treat after a day of skiing at Berkshire East (about 15 minutes away)! It snowed probably 8 inches one night and the host was there early the next morning to dig us out. Communication with the host was also top notch. We would definitely stay here again.

Family Trip

The House is perfect for a big family gathering. The owners were wonderful to communicate with during our stay. It was unfortunate that we were traveling to attend a family funeral but our stay here was just what we needed. The house is exactly as described and hosts are very nice. They have set it up for anything you would need. I highly recommend staying here if you’re in the area.

Great spot!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was spacious, clean, and easy to access, and the owners were very proactive with communication. The air hockey table didn't seem to be working while we were there, but maybe we just couldn't figure it out. I'd definitely stay here again should we find ourselves in the area.

Wonderful Family Stay

We stayed for a weekend ski trip at Berkshire East with 2 families and had a great time. The house is beautifully renovated inside and was perfect for our group with everything we needed for adults and kids (ages ranging 1-8). We had a minor issue due to crazy weather and Casey was immediately responsive and beyond accommodating. We’ve already been talking about coming back for another stay.

Lovely Stay

We were in town for a family wedding and needed a place for 4 adults and 6 children (ages ranging from 1 to 7) to have as a home base as all the kids and 2 of the adults were in the wedding. This property was perfect. The pictures don’t do it justice - it is much bigger than we anticipated which made it perfect as the kids (all cousins) needed some space from one another. The kitchen was large and we only wish we had gotten to make meals there as they had everything we would need. Our kids loved the hot cocoa station and we loved the coffee bar! The fire pit was great for the adults to relax at after the kids were asleep. There is a noise awareness device that I was a bit nervous about with 6 kids but we didn’t set it off once! The personal touches throughout the house (welcome basket, hair ties in the bathroom), the communication from Erika and Casey, the comfort of the mattresses in every room and the overall care that went into this property made our stay absolutely amazing! Highly recommend staying here if you find yourself in the area.

Very nice home

Erika and Casey were very quick to respond to questions prior to checking in. The home was clean and beautifully decorated, very inviting! The listing said the property was air conditioned, which was true in the sense that there was one window unit downstairs and one upstairs, but none of the bedrooms were air conditioned, which was difficult in August. Overall a wonderful stay.

Escape from pandemic in the city

My family and I have had crazy year, worse than 2020. We needed a place to run away and escape from busy life in a big city, Colrain was perfect. We baked and walked the woods and played games. It might sound boring to those tired of pandemic lock down but as a nurse it was just what I needed.

Great place to spend quality time with friends

I came to Colrain with a group of friends for a weekend centered around a raft trip on the Deerfield River. We thoroughly enjoyed the open floor plan and interior design of the downstairs area. It's also a well equipped place with a nice gas grill. We were a bit surprised to see that NoiseAware devices had been installed - likely with the best of intentions of preventing large parties. While these did not change our plans, we would recommend that the owners make their presence known in the description of the property. Overall, everyone in my group liked the place quite a bit, especially in the interior.

Beautiful and unique home

We did a quick get away with two families (4 adults and 4 kids). The house was so fun. The kids loved exploring, playing hide and seek, air hockey, board games. Adults loved hanging out in the spacious kitchen and living area and sitting on the deck with a cocktail (comfortable porch but not a good view). Plenty of room for everyone to have their own bed. Very clean and beautifully decorated house. Bathrooms were very clean and nice. Our only negative feedback is the location. It is across the street from a water treatment facility so not a great view or smell. We had hoped to do a ziplining or mountain coaster activity but they were closed until May 1 (our fault for not checking sooner). But we pivoted and instead enjoyed a family hike up to the fire tower and a stroll downtown where there are a few shops. The main street and bridge of flowers and potholes landscape are all worth checking out. Overall we had a great time, the house is great and the owners are very accommodating and easy to reach.
