Amazing property

We had an amazing time. We had several out of town guests who stayed at the home and then a birthday party with local guests in the ballroom. The ballroom is absolutely stunning. The chef enjoyed the kitchen. There was plenty of parking and a beautiful setting. I would stay again.

Perfect location

Our group of 10 friends really enjoyed this beautiful historic property. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space and yet wonderful, large areas where we could all gather together. We especially appreciated the location, so close to the center of Stockbridge, which afforded us the opportunity to take many walks around the area.

6 old but fun couples!

Beautiful property with all the amenities. Our group of 12 relaxed on the sun porch, played bocce and cornhole in the huge backyard, and enjoyed the town of Stockbridge. The owners suggestion of dinner at Alta was much appreciated as we had a fabulous dinner there.

Wonderful family home in the Berkshires

Perfect home for hosting multiple families. Tons of en suite bathrooms and king-sized beds. Only ten minutes by car from Tanglewood and walking distance to Naum Keeg and Main Street shops. It’s really a gem.

One of the Best Rentals, Ever.

The Taggart House exceeds expectations. It is shipshape, fully equipped with responsive and friendly hosts/owners. Its historic but also great fun for a group with lots of spaces for meals, meal prep, socializing, TV watching, outdoor dining, fire pit etc. Its a memory maker for all who stay here.

Daughter’s Wedding Long Weekend

A group of our college friends and their spouses who were in Stockbridge to celebrate my daughter’s wedding including her godparents. Such a treat to stay in the beautiful Taggart House. Location is perfection! Everyone loved their beautiful rooms. We had a lovely dinner at the big dining room table the first night- couldn’t have been better or more fun!

Beautiful home; everything one could want.

We are seventy-something year old women who annually rent a special place for our 'retreat." Taggart House is so far the loveliest place that we have rented. It's clean, easy parking, sidewalks, restaurants, local attractions, good beds, let me again mention "clean" which is really important to us. En suite bathrooms for all. Just fabulous.

We had a great time at this Stockbridge property!

We were four couples (all in our 50s) and we had a GREAT time at this beautiful home. The hosts, Caitlyn and George, were accommodating, responsive and helpful (including when the battery for the front door died and when we had problems with one of the upstairs thermostats). The house was clean, all the bedrooms upstairs had en suite bathrooms, the kitchen was well appointed, the great room with the tv was comfortable, the dining room was huge, the back porch was lovely and overlooked the beautiful grounds, and the shower water pressure throughout all the bathrooms was exceptional (words I've never uttered regarding a rental home or hotel). We had a wonderful stay overall !!!

Beautiful Home in Perfect Location

I stayed with my entire extended family (12 guests) in July 2023. The house is spacious, cozy, and beautiful. The hosts were quick to respond, accommodating, and incredibly kind before and during our stay. Our time at the Berkshires was made possible by this home. Each room was luxurious and comfortable. Could not recommend more!

Family get together

The communications with hosts leading up to and during stay was excellent. While we were there, they were very helpful with suggestions and shared with us the history of the property. The house was perfect for our family celebration and all bedrooms were comfortable and inviting. The outside property was well suited to outdoor activities. The location could not have been better. A couple of suggestions for improvement: the lighting in the sunroom and the media room was insufficient. Some amenities could be added such as soap for the showers and tubs, and additional toilet paper. Our overall experience was very positive. We would stay there again and would recommend it to others.

Taggart house was my family’s home

My family had a reunion of sorts at the Taggart house and our stay and the accommodations at the Taggart house were just wonderful. We congregated in the kitchen to make meals, we had dinner in the dining room, we worked on a puzzle by one of the fireplaces, and we watched family slides on the big TV in the family room. We had a very short walk to the Red Lion Inn/downtown and we had a 10 minute drive to Tanglewood. We highly recommend Taggart house to anyone looking to feel at home with their family & friends in the Berkshires, and we hope to stay here again in the future.
