House was clean, nice and in a perfect location. We thought we had an issue with the grill (a self imposed error) and the next day there was a new grill in the backyard. They (Ana and her husband) went above and beyond. Every host on VRBO should take notes from them.... ##### Alan P. Stayed 11 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John S. 30 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Stay in the Berkshires The home is very conveniently located in Stockbridge and all the main sites. It is very spacious, with plenty of seating for a large group. The yard is enormous and scenic, and there is a pathway down to a rapidly moving stream, with chairs and a small table. Wonderful books are available in most of the rooms. ##### John S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ---
