We had a wonderful experience- house was clean and very comfy with all the amenities. Hosts went out of their way both before and during our stay to provide information and make sure all our needs were met! We enjoyed relaxing in the house and the location was also very close to many great Berkshires sights!! Highly recommend this listing!

Amazing home and location
We had a wonderful time in Pittsfield for the Holidays. Sarah sent me a few different activities prior to our visit so I could plan some local holiday events ahead of time which was WONDERFUL! They were always responsive if there was an issue or question and the house was perfect.

Adorable, unique, lovely rental
Literally one of the nicest places we've ever stayed. Very clean and comfortable, but what really got us was the adorable, unique and very special decor. The yard is amazing, the Whimsical art all over the place and they just want to never leave! The hosts were incredibly responsive and overall it was a wonderful weekend. Can't wait to return. Couldn't say enough good things.

Beautiful home and outside property
The South Mountain house is perfect for a relaxing get away and to renew old friendships. The outside deck and gorgeous yard was perfect for watching nature and having long talks over coffee. The house itself was amazing with themed rooms and fireplace. Sarah responded immediately to all of our questions and is the perfect host!! We already booked to return. Thank you for sharing this beautiful place.

South Mountain House was the perfect getaway! The house is charming. Plenty of space for our group of 4, super comfortable with everything we needed. Great outdoor space, well appointed kitchen, modern bathrooms. Host Sarah was attentive, checking in with us to make sure all was well and left us delicious cookies on arrival. The house is easily accessible by main roads and is located in a perfect location, close to downtown Pittsfield with easy access to all that north and south county have to offer. We will definitely return when we are back in the Berkshires.
