A Piece of Heaven in Richmond

This was my first visit back to the Berkshires in 44 years and I could not be any luckier to stayed at this wonderful cottage! I felt at home from the moment I pulled into the drive way. Every detail has been considered. I made friends with my neighbors. The location is so convenient to every town, Great food, hiking, and beautiful towns. The cottage is so impeccable clean, tastefully styled, cozy and comfortable comfy. Plus the very gracious host allowed me and my 13 year old pup stay and he loved the screened in porch and plus lawn. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! This gem of a cottage is a must stay! Scott K. Manhattan

MOST ENJOYABLE

This was our second stay, and we enjoyed it even more. We had intended on doing some things we didn't have time for the first trip in the area; however after a long road trip just relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful home. The screened porch is a delight to sit, catch up on reading, nap, listen and watch the birds. L & J are stupendous hosts who are always available for any questions that may arise. We highly recommend and hope to return.

Great stay!

Lauren and Jonathan have a beautiful cottage in a great location. The place is extremely clean, comfortable and well appointed - it was perfect for us and our dog. The whole experience felt elevated compared to other rentals we've stayed in throughout the Berkshires. We will be back!

On a scale of 1-10 this is a 20!

Jonathan & Lauren were superb hosts. We erred in making our reservations and they were extremely accommodating. The beautiful cottage is in a great location, and it is evident much thought and care has gone into every aspect. Landscaping,design and decor are all done to the highest quality. They have thought of EVERYTHING to make this a cozy, comfortable and charming home. We really enjoyed relaxing on the veranda. The local milk and cookies were a wonderful treat. We hope to return soon.

Restorative weekend in elegant surroundings

We and our pup enjoyed a perfect long weekend in Lauren and Jonathan’s beautiful cottage. It’s furnished tastefully yet comfortably, and we wanted for nothing. We were welcomed warmly by Jonathan, who gave us a tour of all we went on to enjoy— a cozy, chic cabin full of thoughtful touches that ensured we had everything we could want. Our weekend consisted of breakfasts in the screened-in porch surrounded by joyful birdsong, wonderful hikes, leisurely games of cribbage, and meals whipped up in the beautifully designed kitchen. A breezeway and bench made it easy to keep the house tidy, even with our dog, and we loved the cottage so much that it felt natural to treat it as if it were our own— affectionately but with care. We ran out of time so didn’t make use of the terrific fire pit (with logs ready to light)— just one of many reasons we look forward to returning.

Magical Cottage

We venture and explore often, and Jonathan and Lauren’s cottage ranks up there for us. It is cozy, extremely well appointed, and stylish. High end appliances, furniture, blankets, bedding, etc… They certainly know how to provide a sanctuary for their guests. Highly recommend! We are already looking forward to a future visit in the warmer weather so we can take advantage of the beautiful 3 season porch and outdoor firepit.

Return visit even better!

Our second visit to this lovely cottage! This time we made ample use of the fireplace. It feels like you are staying at a high end hotel in the Berkshires! Lauren & Jonathan have really thought of everything you may need during your stay and are a quick text away when you need a restaurant recommendation. We've now stayed here in fall & winter. We'll have to give spring & summer a try to round out our reviews for each season ;)

Cozy Weekend Abode

My husband and I spent three nights at this property as we toured the surrounding towns of Lenox, Stockbridge, and Great Barrington (all within 15-20 minutes of the house). We loved the décor as it really dropped us into the Berkshire style. The café bar in the kitchen, as well as the wooden stove, and firepit added to the coziness we were seeking on this long weekend. Jonathan and Lauren provided a wonderful binder of recommendations. Guido's was the perfect grocer for us (deli for sandwiches and dinner supplies). We also loved that we could use the breezeway for undressing (boots, wet clothing, etc.) to leave the rest of the home tidy. We used the dryer downstairs to dry anything damp (very helpful). The kitchen was so well stocked, we were in need of nothing! There is also a spring water dispenser for filtered water which is essential for us as we avoid drinking tap. We loved staying here...and already miss it!

Cottage gem

This is one of those perfect vacation rentals that you want to tell all your friends about and -- also selfishly want to keep to yourself! Lauren & Jonathan have created an elegant and exceptionally well-appointed one-bedroom cottage in the Berkshires. We already booked another visit. Need I say more?

Cozy and stylish getaway for two.

Jonathan and Lauren are perfect hosts. They provided us delicious local coffee and donuts, which we happily had for breakfast in the beautiful screened-in porch. The house is exactly as pictured - tastefully decorated and comfortable. Everything, from the soap to the all-natural bug spray is thoughtfully selected. The house is near Lenox, Shaker Village and scenic hiking. We would absolutely stay there again on our next trip to the Berkshires!
