Peaceful Retreat Compound 10 Minutes to Great Barrington!

In one of the most sought after destinations in New England, located just outside Great Barrington near the top of Baldwin Hill where the mountains ring your view in every direction, sits a secluded three bedroom home with heated pool, hot tub, sauna, wood firepit, pickleball court, separate Clubhouse, and extensive gardens. Home has a master bedroom suite located on the first floor with adjustable Queen bed with an expansive two-room bath with walk-in shower and beautiful soaking tub surrounded by marble-- and your hot tub and sauna are right outside via your private door. This room is equipped with its own Asko washer and dryer. Upstairs, find two bedrooms (one with adjustable King bed and one with two Twins) and a large living room full of windows overlooking the forest. Living room has extra large flat screen TV and a gas fireplace, along with full bar area with beverage cooler, dishwasher and icemaker. Daybed with with real twin-sized mattress for overnight guest is super comfy when cuddling in for movie night!

Extra large round dining table seats 10+ people in comfortable upholstered chairs! All bedrooms have remote controlled exterior privacy shades on all windows. In a separate building, the Clubhouse is designed for gathering with its loft office/teen/gaming area stocked with Switch that's loaded with games, Queen sleep sofa, full bathroom, gas fireplace, kitchenette, ping pong table, and beautiful deck with second gas fireplace for warmth on those chilly evenings, overlooking the woods. House and Clubhouse are modern and filled with light. Both were built/renovated within the last few years. Bonus Pink House with porch swing is heated and has a full fridge and a large sink -- it's the perfect spot from which to serve drinks and al fresco meals to your guests! Propane bbq for grilling near the lounge area by the pool, and on the other side of the pool is a screened in porch for dining bug free or relaxing in the shade. After a pickleball match, you'll want to take a swim in the heated pool, or head straight to the hot tub or sauna! Or just enjoy a hot shower in the private outdoor shower area. Take a long walk to the back of the 18 acre property via wide full driveway, or do as the locals do and walk to the top of Baldwin Hill. A huge expanse of the rear yard is fully fenced for your pet. In addition, there is a small pet run accessed through the one car garage, where you will also find a pet washing station and the second washer and dryer.

Summer Vacation
This is a wonderful location in the Berkshires - close to activities and hiking, Great Barrington, and shopping. Communication about the house was easy and the host is very responsive. The grounds of the house are beautiful - we spent most of our time outside. It was great to have a washer/dryer and the kitchen is well-stocked. Thanks!

Wonderful private compound in the country
We absolutely loved this property! What a wonderful vacation house for a big group. We loved how well equipped this house is, with games, pool toys, large pool towels, a tennis table, lots of kitchen ware, spices in the kitchen, indoor & outdoor seating for meals, and much more. The landscaping is lovely, and the location is really quiet and private.The clubhouse is a bonus, with extra space perfect for teenagers. We would definitely come back!

Beautiful, well managed property!
This property is a true gem just outside of Great Barrington. The main house is spacious and well stocked with plenty to do for kids and adults alike. Additionally there is a pool house with games and enough outdoor activities (trampoline, hot tub, sauna, pickleball, basketball etc.) to keep everyone happy. Julie was a great host, responding timely to our needs. Would happily rent again!

Perfect Family weekend
We celebrated 2 family birthdays at the house and had an amazing time. EVERYTHING you could need, is at the home. Beautiful accommodations and so much to do. The kids loved the hot tub- parents did too! The outdoor property is so nicely designed and our doggies might have the best time of their lives! Next time, we’re going to have a pickleball tournament. Would highly recommend

Fun family getaway!
My husband and I rented this property for a family vacation for us and our three kids. Everyone had a great time! The kids had tons of fun in the clubhouse with the nintendo, and we all enjoyed family movie night in front of the fireplace. The area is full of activities to do as a family as well. Downtown Great Barrington is beautiful and so festive. We'll have to stay longer next time so we have time to explore more!

Lovely Stay in a Cozy Berkshire Home!
We really enjoyed our stay at this well equipped house. It is very close to Great Barrington and the other destinations we came to visit. The house is very clean and well maintained. We had everything we needed to cook anything we wanted to at home. There is lots of space so we never felt crowded and yet it is cozy at the same time, with lots if different areas to gather. There was lots to do at the house, pickleball and basketball, walks on the property, etc. we could have just stayed on site the whole time! We will definitely be back next summer to try out the pool.

Peaceful and unique, perfect for a girls' bachelorette getaway!
My sister, her bridesmaids, and I gathered here the day before her Berkshire wedding to prepare for the day, do some last-minute planning, and get some relaxation in! We surprised her with the reservation and she LOVED it. Such a beautiful property, we spent a good amount of time just exploring and looking at all the unique art and decor the house and grounds had to offer! I only wish we had more time and/or better weather to try put the pool and hot tub, but the sauna was an amazing addition right outside of the (gorgeous) tub room in the main house!
