perfect for us

We stayed at the property for a fishing trip in/around the Deerfield River. The location was great and the house is fantastic. Fully stocked with linens, kitchen gear, firewood, etc. Really nice updating of original farmhouse. Great places for eating and sitting/socializing (including outside firepit area). 5 separate sleeping rooms was ideal for our party of 5.

Wonderful weekend!

We rented the house for a long weekend to celebrate our son graduating from UMass. There were few choices of large homes nearby Amherst, so we chose this one. It was a bit off the beaten path, but we were thrilled with it! It’s a beautiful old home that has been updated with all the bells and whistles. It had plenty of room including a large kitchen where we congregated in for much of our time there. We enjoyed a firepit one evening and played games at the massive dining room table a few times. If we choose to come back to the area for any reason in the future, we would definitely stay here!

Beautiful farmhouse

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful farmhouse. Our host, Sandi was very communicative through out the whole process. The home was very clean and had so many wonderful amenities. The wood burning stoves were set up for easy use and made for a very cozy winter stay. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. We would definitely stay here again!

Another Perfect Thanksgiving

This is a very special property, and we were fortunate, once again, to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday with family in Heath. It has now become our family "tradition" to journey to the Berkshires and enjoy this gorgeous home with friends/family. As usual, the house was stocked with wood for the stoves and everything was clean and ready for our arrival. Thanksgiving is a tricky holiday when you are away from home but, thankfully, a stocked kitchen was ready for us so we could cook all the holiday favorites. Our gracious hosts even left out candles on the dining room table to add to the festivities. Our family quickly settled into the house, and we felt right at home. I think that's one of the best things about this property and the tremendous care and attention to detail that has gone into maintaining such a place. It feels like home when you stay there, and I think that's pretty special. Whether you are gathering by the fire inside or exploring the local towns (especially Shelburne Falls), or going for a lovely walk around the property, there is so much to enjoy. For me, I embraced the quiet, gorgeous morning light that would peek through our bedroom window as I sat and sipped my coffee. I didn't feel rushed. It was heaven! We will surely be back again to make more memories! Thanks to our amazing hosts for a lovely holiday weekend!

Wonderful!

This is the second time we have stayed at this lovely property. The house is extremely clean and comfortable with a lot of charm and attention to small details that enhanced our stay. There is a beautiful yard with a fire pit , gas grill and picnic tables that we used for a family gathering during our visit. Sandi quickly responded to questions/communications from us prior to and during our stay. We highly recommend this rental and will be back!

A Great Relaxing Weekend!

The house was very clean, everything we needed was available, and Sandi was clear and open with her communication. Air conditioners are new and quiet models located in every bedroom. At one point during our stay, a carbon monoxide detector was beeping in the locked off basement area due to a low battery, but we were given instructions on where to find the key to be able to fix the problem. Tons of firewood is available for nightly fires in the wonderful private and quiet backyard. There is a gas grill that seems to be brand new and works great. Two neighbor horses are very friendly and come right up to you to say hi! Would stay again and recommend to others.

Beautiful Farmhouse

This house is so charming and beautifully updated, well appointed and the location is lovely. It was perfect for our extended family with the two lower level bedrooms easily accessible for two sets of grandparents. We were there for a graduation 40 minutes away in Deerfield so didn’t have any time to explore the immediate area.

Fantastic stay in Heath

Our time in Heath couldn't have been better. The house is beautiful, and actually MORE spacious than the photos suggest. Sandi was super responsive and so helpful and accommodating. The location had the perfect combination of the solitude we wanted with stores and restaurants not far away at all. There were great, beautiful places nearby to go for a hike or run, but staying at the house was also a lovely way to spend time. Checking in and out were easy. Highly recommend!

Family ski weekend

This our second year renting this beautiful farmhouse. My husband and I, 2 sons and their wives and 5 grandchildren spent the weekend. We skied Berkshire East on Saturday (about 6 miles away) . Sunday we spent the afternoon sitting around a firepit while the grandkids were sledding and cross country skiing… right in the backyard. The house has a great hill for sledding and plenty of property to ski! The house has everything you need and very clean. We love to stay here and will rent again next year!!

Warm Farmhouse

We had the pleasure of staying at this lovely farmhouse during presidents week with some friends and family. The house was perfect for our stay. Close to Berkshire East for skiing during the day it was about a short drive to the mountain from the house. The kids loved sledding in the back and the adults enjoyed the outside fire pit. The house is fully stocked with everything we needed for the trip. Will be back again next year.

Cute Farmhouse

We had the pleasure of staying at this lovely farmhouse for a ski weekend at Berkshire East. The location was perfect. It was nice and close to the mountain. The house was very lovely. We noticed all the little details inside the house. The original farmhouse decorations really put a nice cozy touch to the house. The kitchen was fully stocked with plates, utensils, bowls and pots. We really enjoyed the fireplace in the den and also in the dining room. We made wonderful memories in the house this weekend and will definitely be back. Sandi was quick and responsive to any questions we had.

Spacious But Cozy

This is a great property for a family gathering! Plenty of room, and beautiful and very comfortable and cozy. Very well-equipped kitchen, with good connections to both the large dining area and living room, and easy to carry on conversations. We loved the wood stove and large couches in the main living room, and there were other sitting places as well. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms worked well. We (my wife and I, our kids and grandkids) all enjoyed the outdoors, especially the hill on the property where the sledding was fun (sleds provided by owner). We also liked walking on the trails in the adjoining Betty Maitland Memorial Forest.

The Perfect Thanksgiving

Gathering for the holidays with friends/family can be tough. Who will host? How can we fit everyone into the same house? This year, our family decided to go a different route and rent this gorgeous farmhouse. There were 6 adults and four kiddos. It was the BEST decision we have ever made for Thanksgiving. The house was warm, immaculately clean and stocked for our Thanksgiving holiday. Everyone had ample room for sleeping, bathing and general relaxation. With the comfort of two lovely wood burning stoves, this home offered space to gather as a family of 10 around the dining room table. The kitchen is a chef's dream and really offered us the space and tools to put together a beautiful meal (particularly the traditional Thanksgiving meal!). This home is decorated and organized with great detail so that the guests can really enjoy the historic charm and elegance of the farmhouse with modern efficiencies and conveniences (internet, ROKU TV, etc.). The decor of the home was stunning with the perfect combination of curated antiques and modern touches. The natural light of this home is stunning as are the grounds. I woke up early each morning to take in the sunrise over the fields. It was incredible. But I have to say, the hosts were really most impressive. I had lots of questions, some of which popped up during our stay, and Sandy couldn't have been more accommodating. She responded quickly with helpful information, and I felt that she really wanted us to enjoy our stay (which we did!). She was very kind, thoughtful and helpful to us during our stay. We cannot wait to return to this gorgeous property!

A spacious and lovely farm- perfect for a family gathering

The house is large and the property is lovely. It worked well to have a family gathering here - ample dining room seating, a well-appointed kitchen The host even offered to bring up a crock pot for me! There was a beautiful firepit and numerous Adirondack chairs for seating as well as two picnic tables. We all enjoyed being there very much. There are trails right near by to walk also which was fun. It was difficult arriving late in the evening after a long drive to find out that I had to make all 5 beds. I know that some rentals are doing this because of covid but I wish I had been given the choice of have the cleaning person make up the beds. Also, the day of check out, I learned of a series of tasks that needed to be completed. While the host told me I could check out anytime, which was nice, we had a deadline to be somewhere else and learning of these tasks the morning of our departure made for a bit of more stressful departure. It would be helpful for planning purposes to know of these things up front. Overall, it was a good place to stay and we would stay again if we are in the area.

About the host

Hosted by Sandi Oyola Pike

I grew up in Bay Shore, NY. I have resided in NYC, Chicago, Brooklyn and Jersey City. My husband David grew up in Texas, California, Guam, South Dakota and NYC (his father was a pilot for the US Air Force). My husband and I purchased this Farmhouse over 7 years ago as our vacation home (to get away from JC). We currently reside in Hebron, CT with our son Zori.

Why they chose this property

We enjoy visiting Berkshire East and we love old farmhouses. When we saw this house, we instantly fell in love with it. Not only was this the house we were looking for, the old barn and the 12 acres of land was an added bonus. 9 of the 12 acres are wooded. which provides privacy - when the sun sets, its a beautiful view. We are able to quickly drive to Berkshire East , Shelburne Falls, North Adams, Jacksonville, VT and Mt Snow. We love the get away location as much as the house.

What makes this property unique

The kitchen is what first captivated me. Then the wood burning stoves were my favorite during the winter months. That along with the beautiful snowfalls and the ability to run outside and watch our son sled down the small hill out back. In the fall, it's the trees turning colors, watching or neighbors horses roam around and sitting by the old barn with a glass of wine. We love every nook and cranny of this house and we hope you do too.
