The house was great for our family. We especially loved the fireplace. And there was plenty of space for the kids and the dogs. The only problem was that the house had not yet been cleaned when we arrived. When the host reached out for our arrival time, I said we’d be in the area an hour early and they cleared us to check in at 3pm. However, it appeared that another family just left. Cleaners came at 4p and it was a huge inconvenience for me to take the kids out for 2 – 3 hours after a 3 hour car ride. All communication with Lucas was over email at that moment and I asked for a phone call. “Lucas” was an offshore call center and not a real person. The house was still great, the experience could have been better. There should have been some kind of courtesy discount or rebate or something for the inconvenience and I continue to wait to hear from “Lucas”.
A beautiful home, well located, with a generous host. Super!

My friends and I felt right at home during our four day visit to Stockbridge. The home is cozy, bright, and well stocked to spend all day cooking in kitchen, lounging in the living room playing board games, or simply getting some peace and quiet. All the bedrooms were comfortable and quiet too. Lucas' place also serves as a great homebase for any adventures you have planned in the Berkshires and I look forward to going back!

This house is charming and a perfect Berkshire getaway. Close to the Norman Rockwell Museum and surrounding towns/restaurants. Perfect size for our party of 3 buy could definitely accommodate more as listed. Great decor, kitchen, and set up. Books, board games and puzzles make it even better. The surroundings are gorgeous. Easy to work with the host, fast check-in/out. We were also able to check in early which was a plus. Appreciate this home very much - enjoy!

The house location was a short drive to Stockbridge and West Stockbridge. There are other houses nearby, but it still felt like a nice quiet getaway. The wind chimes were pretty, and the autumn leaves were beautiful.
We enjoyed having multiple nice gathering spaces for our group of 6. Nothing fancy, but was a great home base!
We were able to check in early which was very convenient! Check in and out was very easy.
Loved that we could bring our dog with us, but there is an additional fee that was not mentioned in the listing.

I was looking for a place for 6 adults (3 couples) to stay, hence looking for 3 queen/king sized beds - hard to find, yet this house met my criteria! Each bedroom has a built-in quiet AC unit. The kitchen is huge and very well appointed. Although the house is not really walking distance to the center of Stockbridge, it is a quick drive to get there.
I was hoping that I'd be able to bring my elderly father to spend a few hours with us in the house. However, I realized after I arrived that it would be too difficult for him to manage even the few back entrance stairs or to navigate the small half-bath on the first floor level.
Overall, it was a lovely stay and if my family were to gather again in the Lenox-Stockbridge area, I would be very happy to rent this house again.

A charming home in a great location, with a nice mix of period character and modern touches. Overall it is very comfortable, and while not a huge house, there is plenty of interior space to spread out. The home is built on a hill, which limits the usable exterior patio space, but is still tranquil with a pleasing view. There are some minor condition issues, but nothing that impacts use or an enjoyable experience. The location is wonderful for easily accessing popular attractions, being close to Tanglewood, downtown Stockbridge, and several museums. We very much enjoyed our stay, and wukk keep this on the short list for future visits.

This house was very comfortable and a well equipped kitchen made cooking and grilling easy and we loved the screened porch since the mosquitos were unusually plentiful this summer due to early wet weather! The beds and linens were comfortable as well. We will definitely stay again when we return to the Berkshires!!

Well designed and renovated house on a quiet street neighborhood. 10 minutes drive to Lenox, Stockbridge and surroundings. Large and full kitchen. 4 bedrooms for large family. Clean and well maintained.
Owner is a great art lover with good collection of books, music scores and an old piano. Good base to explore Berkshire arts events.
Manager is very responsive.

This home is simply magnificent! What a wonderful place to spend leisurely time with family or friends. There are many seating areas throughout, both indoors and out (plus screened-in), the furnishings are interesting and comfortable, and it has a very warm and "lived-in" feel so that it is immediately inviting. Communication was a breeze and very accommodating.
We are so happy to have found this special hideaway, and are only sorry we were not able to stay longer this time around. We will most certainly be back!

This house was quite charming! I appreciated the artwork and the feel of the spaces. Unique features make them all enjoyable in their own way! It seems like the owners are still updating some things, it is a worthy gem to preserve!! We fully enjoyed our stay and it was a perfect space for 3 separate pairs of guests (including 2 younger children 6 and 8) to have community in shared spaces and also have privacy when needed. I would recommend this space to future guests!

We stayed four days in the house and could have stayed another four. It's a wonderful house nicely layout full of beautiful furniture and art. It was spotless and had everything we needed. The area is just great. Many cultural options and great restaurants. Don't think twice. Go for it.

Loved the location as a home base as we enjoyed the Berkshires. The home is beautiful and very well appointed. The beds are all very comfortable and home has convenient areas for people to work, if needed.

When we found this great place with enough bedrooms for our family and within walking distance to our brother’s home, we couldn’t believe it could be as great as described but it was. We hope to make this an annual event and to rent Lucas’ property again!

This AirBnB home was just perfect for our family get-together. The home is lovely and you feel like you’re home with art work on the walls and bookshelves filled with interesting books. The living room is lovely, spacious and light-filled with a great couch and great chairs to read in. One son filled our weekend with music as he played the piano in the living room. We had coffee on the deck and made dinners in the big kitchen. The location is a good neighborhood for dog walking. Beautiful leafy neighborhood. Lucas was responsive, friendly, and helpful. Definitely a 5-star experience.
