About this property

Quiet & private small horse farm only 1.5 miles to Jiminy Peak. Pet friendly.

The entire second floor of our horse barn is 1000+ square feet of cozy enjoyment, featuring a queen bed in the bedroom, an open concept living room and full kitchen, a large bathroom with a washer and dryer, and a spacious entryway. A queen sleeper sofa in the living room allows for an additional two guests. Plus there is a 12’x36’ deck with a table, umbrella and four chairs, two Adirondack chairs and a gas grill.

It is cozy & private, yet so close to the many area attractions such as Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort (1.5 miles), Williams College & The Clark Art Institute (both 12 miles), Mass MoCA (17 miles) and Tanglewood (21 miles).

Take in the tranquility of mornings with coffee on the deck while watching the horses graze. Mid-day, grab a frozen pint glass from the freezer and enjoy your favorite beverage under the umbrella. In season, pick fresh vegetables from the back yard garden for a sunset dinner. During cooler months, fire up the patio heater to extend your outdoor time. Still hungry? Grab the S'mores from the kitchen and sit around the camp fire pit; perhaps you will hear a coyote howl in the distance.

Inside, the pellet stove provides additional warmth and ambiance. Roku smart TV's in the living room and bedroom provide many entertainment options.

Spend a long, romantic fall foliage weekend. Enjoy a week of skiing in the winter. Stay the summer months to explore all that the area has to offer, or book it for a season and come and go as you please. Significant weekly and monthly stay discounts are applied.

Great getaway spot!

My fiance and I had a wonderful stay here. Our two miniature Aussies loved playing in the yard, and we enjoyed relaxing on the deck and grilling outside. The property is beautifully maintained and has all the necessities. We did some great hiking and explored nearby towns. All around terrific experience!

The perfect spot for a ski weekend at Jiminy Peak. Our kids and pup loved meeting the horses! Plus a generous welcome basket from our hosts and a fun sledding hill. Plenty of room for a family of four.

Wonderful getaway!

We had a great stay - clear and prompt communication from the owner Kyle, well stocked kitchen and bathroom, and as wonderful as described. It worked perfect for us and our dogs, who very much enjoyed the property. The location is great, quiet and relaxing but very close to Jiminy and several other activities. The gift basket was great and we appreciated the owner’s hospitality, helpfulness and friendliness.

Serene and Cozy

A perfect base for an Autumn New England weekend. The view is spectacular, especially with the horses grazing in the pasture. Kyle has thought of everything to make the barn a home away from home. Our pup loved the toy provided in a gift basket and we enjoyed all the extra goodies too. The location is perfect for day trips to hiking trails in MA and VT. The cute general store at Jimeny Peak is only a few minutes down the road too. Would happily recommend this stay to any couple looking for a relaxing and beautiful getaway!

Hospitality and location

Kyle was an extremely hospitable host! We arrived to find a generously stocked Welcome Basket. He was very reachable, and communication before and during the visit was prompt and helpful. We enjoyed the farm atmosphere and the friendly horses! Well-located for activities both north and south of the farm. Would recommend!

Such a perfect weekend -

I instantly fell in love with this property while searching VRBO. Seeing it in person was so much better. Kyle and Talitha are the most gracious hosts I have ever met. They were so friendly, helpful and funny. We very much enjoyed chatting with them during our visit - Talitha even played a little soccer with my son. The horses were just absolutely gorgeous and provided a stunning heartwarming view along with the beautifully colored trees and mountains. I was quite sad to leave but we will absolutely be back in 2025.

Just what we needed

Looked for a Berkshire getaway for relaxation and golf weekend. This was the perfect place. What a beautiful view and exceptionally clean. Kyle was a super host and always available. His horses are beautiful to look at and we still know their names and talk about them. He also had a garden and offered us fresh lettuce and kale!!!! Exceptional experience.

Serene Sanctuary with the Best Hosts Ever

This was an absolutely perfect stay from beginning to end. It usually takes us some time to settle in but here the sense of ease and relaxation was instant upon arrival. The farm is stunningly beautiful in the most serene setting. The property itself is wonderful. Spacious yet cozy, bright, clean, beautifully decorated... I wanted to move right in. Kyle and Talitha are just all-around awesome people. The most warm, welcoming, and incredibly generous hosts we've ever encountered (that welcome basket was above and beyond and our pup has a new favorite toy)! Everything about this stay felt like a breath of fresh air. Cannot thank you enough and cannot wait to be back!

Wonderful weekend in beautiful surroundings

My wife & I enjoyed a lovely few days staying at Kyle's barn on a beautiful property in the Berkshires. The apartment is on the 2nd floor of the barn and was very comfortable. The kitchen is very well stocked and they very kindly provided us with a bunch of snacks as well as toys and treats for our 2 dogs! It's only 15-20 minutes from both Williamstown and Pittsfield so there is plenty to do close by, but it is in a quiet area so it's easy to simply relax and enjoy the surroundings. We hope to get a chance to come back and visit before too long.

A Piece of Heaven

I made a last minute reservation for my 2 week stay. The process was easy ans my stay was perfect! The hosts are kind, funny, caring and generous; the Barn is spotless, comfortable, well stocked and convenient; the 4 horses are delightful if not down right funny; every wanted/needed service was accessible; and the farm is just gorgeous. The peace, quiet and beauty of the farm made for a perfect relaxation spot. I will coordinate future stays around availabilty of this rental. Thank you!

Fantastic place

We stayed at the barn for a ski weekend. It was comfortable, spacious, clean, well-stocked and well-organized. The owners were so nice and communication was easy. We had great views of the mountain and even better, great views of the owners' 4 beautiful horses. It was so nice to wake up every day and see them out the windows. The owners thought of everything we could have possibly needed, and even provided a fantastic snack basket (which thrilled our 12 year old). The location is perfect - very close to Jiminy Peak but still peaceful. Our skiing plans were rained out one day, so we drove into one of the nearby towns to check it out and do some shopping, which was a lot of fun. We could easily have made dinner at the rental, but ended up going to different restaurants each night, and each one was really good. We're already trying to figure out how we can get back this season. Overall we had a great trip and a wonderful stay at the barn.

Wonderful respite for us, and the dogs were happy too.

My wife, our two dogs, and I recently enjoyed a wonderful week at the Johnson Farm and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. The first thing that struck us was the thoughtful layout of the space above the stable. It was not only spacious but also incredibly well-organized, making it easy for all four of us to settle in comfortably. The owners have done an excellent job in creating a cozy atmosphere, and the welcome basket was much appreciated after our long drive. We were treated to picturesque vistas of rolling hills and serene landscapes that provided the perfect backdrop for our morning coffee and evening stargazing. It felt like a slice of heaven away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. For dog owners like us, this place was a paradise. The abundance of local trails for dog walks was a real treat for our furry companions. They had a blast exploring the nearby paths and fields, and it made our stay even more enjoyable knowing they were having a great time too.

Lovely little farm

When I told my daughter we would be staying above a horse barn when I brought our dog to visit her at WIlliams she raised her eyebrows at me. I am pretty horsey but she must have had visions of a blanket on a bale of hay in the loft. Our stay was basically the opposite of that! The apartment was delightful: warm, cozy, quiet with views over the paddocks on one side and the mountains on the other. The horses were friendly, charming and completely unfazed by our dog. The hosts were responsive and left fixings for s'mores and plenty of human and dog treats for snacking emergencies. Our dog carries her new stuffed cow everywhere. We highly recommend this rental!

Excellent rental!

We enjoyed our 8 days stay so much, we wished it didn't end so soon. Kyle and Talitha are very caring and helpful hosts. Their place is super clean, cozy and just simply perfect. We were really touched by the personalized welcome basket that was left for us when we arrived. We enjoyed our chats with the hosts and interactions with their sweet horses. We loved hikes in the surrounding woods and walks with our dog on their beautiful and peaceful property. 15 minutes trip to The Clark Museum of Art was unexpected and huge bonus !!! Highly recommended. We will definitely come back to spend our next vacation in this wonderful place!

Great Getaway

The space and location was perfect to explore the Berkshires. Our dog was welcomed with treats and his new favorite toy. The gift basket waiting for us was incredibly generous. The horses on the property created the picture postcard New England scene. The space was ideal, spacious, clean with a great deck off the back. We'd definitely come back again.
