About this property

The Clearing - Quiet - Close To Nature

  • This newly renovated cottage is located atop a hill overlooking the Wild and Scenic Westfield River surrounded by state forest and protected land. Wildlife abounds and we are a birder's haven. Many a morning you can watch mist arising from the river. Walk out the door to hike, mountain bike, snowshoe, or ski in the woods. Groomed cross country ski trails are nearby. Notchview Reservation, 20 minutes away has in my opinion the best XC skiing in Western Massachusetts.We are located midway between The Berkshires with its many cultural activities and the Pioneer Valley, home to the Five Colleges: U Mass, Smith, Amherst, Mt Holyoke, and Hampshire College. The cottage sleeps four (1 BR for 2, 2 built-in twins by the wood stove). The kitchen is fully equipped. We have installed an ethernet cable which brings the broadband service directly to the Cottage. The Connection is flawless.The owner lives on the property in the main home near to the cottage.
