About this property

Luxury Berkshires Retreat in Lenox - Main House

A private retreat in Berkshires set on 5 acres in prime location in Lenox - our all-season property offers secluded luxury whilst offering close proximity to Tanglewood, Ski slopes, hiking trails, Lakes, the historic town of Lenox and other Berkshire towns. This listing is for the Main House that accommodates a maximum of 11 (you can also rent this property in a larger format - Main House + the Studio - which accommodates 15. VRBO ID. 1266558).

Main House [4400sqft]: This charming 1920s log cabin has an expansive layout with a breezeway connecting a newer section. Inside you will find five well-appointed bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a powder room. The heart and soul of the house is an expansive living room with a brick fireplace, big comfortable sofas, a TV area, and a grand piano. Step out of the living room, onto a balcony to take in the pristine views of the valley below. Right behind the living room is a study and a king bedroom with a full bath. The second floor has two spacious bedrooms (one king and three twins respectively) which share a full bath with a claw foot tub and a separate shower. At the other end of the house, you will find an inviting country kitchen that opens up to a large dining area. The farm table seats 10 comfortably, and there is an adjoining dining area for children. Above the kitchen are two queen bedrooms, a hall bathroom with shower, and a TV den.

Gazebo: We have built a fantastic screened-in living space by the woods' edge, with a 16 seat dining table and sofas for lounging. In this substantial new space you will be able to enjoy long, leisurely meals al fresco, and then curl up for a nap while listening to birds and crickets sing. During the cold season, you can enjoy a fire in the large in-ground fire pit right outside the Gazebo.

Not just a conventional vacation rental, we’ve set up this property as our own retreat with a lot of thought and care. Choosing to rent a home instead of booking a hotel room allows you the space to get together with friends and family in comfort and privacy. But you shouldn't have to sacrifice the luxury you may enjoy during a hotel stay. At the end of your stay, all you need to do is pack your bags and walk out the door. We don't expect you to strip the beds, empty the fridge, or take out the garbage. We offer a worry-free experience right up to the last moment!

** BEFORE YOU INQUIRE**
Thank you for understanding that we have no flexibility on these points:
- We require a 3 night minimum during July and August.
- This house is pet free, there are absolutely NO exceptions to the pet policy. Even if your companion is small, well behaved or hypoallergenic.

Fabulous and Spacious Farm House Property

What a delightful property on the most beautiful street and within a stoll to town or a five minute drive, your choice. Surrounded by other spacious properties, farms, and beautiful views, this was the ideal spot for five of us college friends celebrating our 60th birthday together. The hosts were gracious and extremely easy to communicate with. Everything was exactly as portrayed, but even better. An amazing year-round, kitchen, outside space both screened inside and outdoor fire pit that was ideal, and each bedroom had incredibly comfy beds and sheets. Plenty of bathrooms, a great office to hook up and work and peaceful, restful, and incredibly well appointed. I highly recommend and thank you for our beautiful day.

If you are looking for a private retreat with a fabulous large screen house that will accommodate your group of people, this is the place. The pictures of the screen house do not do it justice. The home is very large and kept very nicely. Kitchen is well appointed with everything you need.

Awesome Christmas!

We thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay! It is a very charming place with comfortable beds for all 10 of us and we stayed warm without touching the thermostats. One huge attraction was the table for 10 on the “kitchen/dining” side which we used for eating, crafting and game playing. The pantry had a nice variety of cooking essentials. The other side had a functional wood-burning fireplace, gathering areas and a main floor bedroom suite for the grandparents. The owners were ideal—responsive and accommodating. We arrived just after a moderate snowfall and it snowed during our stay; snow tires or four wheel drive came in handy around the area. This place was ideal for all three generations ranging in age from 10 to 78. Snow sports, great restaurants, museums and shopping within 20 minutes, a lot within 10. We highly recommend this cabin to anyone visiting the Berkshires, especially first-timers like us.

Terrific stay at great house in Lenox

We were three generations (grandparents, adult kids, and toddler grandchildren) on vacation for a long weekend. The house is very spacious so that we were not cramped and on top of one another. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for all of us. The kitchen was large and well stocked with cookware, dishes, utensils, and anything you would possibly need. The kids play/dining area was a big attraction and the toddlers loved all the toys. The kitchen had non glass dishes for the kids and little kids’ utensils - greatly appreciated. One night we sat around the fire pit after the kids went to bed. The house is in a great location - closed to the town of Lenox and also great for running/walking. One day we went to MASS MOCA. Another day we found a toddler playground and spent a few hours at Balderdash Cellars, which is nearby. Other times we just sat outside at the house while the kids rode their scooters or played ball. We’d love to rent this place again. Thank you, Caitlin.

The best 50th birthday celebration!

We were 10 women celebrating a birthday. The house was perfect, large enough that no one felt like they didn’t have privacy. Kitchen was well equipped and bathrooms were all clean. Would highly recommend. Proximity to Lenox was amazing while still feeling like you were in the country.

A retreat into beauty and peace

This Berkshire retreat becomes your home away from home the moment you cross the threshold. The home is artfully decorated and clean and welcoming. There are features that easily accommodate adults and children. We were traveling as a three generation family with two boys, ages two and six. There are exceptional play spaces for children and many different rooms and outdoor spaces for family to come together and find time for themselves. Everything you can need is fresh and within easy reach. Each of the rooms are beautifully functional.The kitchen is well appointed and an easy space in which to prepare all meals. The bedrooms are large, the beds are supremely comfortable and the newly renovated bathrooms are a dream! The outside space is large and private. From the expanse of well maintained lawns and gardens along with a rippling brook, it works just as well for quiet meditation as active lawn games. The fire pit is fun and the screened in additional building is a superb bonus spot. We all felt very happy to have this exceptional home and setting for our long awaited family get together.

Great for family reunion

This property was perfect for our family reunion. We had grandparents and two families (total of 10) under the one roof. We all had our own private space and bathrooms. The house was well furnished and clean. The screened in eating area was perfect for our large family meals. We look forward to staying there again some day!

Wonderful winter break

We just returned from our amazing stay in this heavenly retreat. The house was just perfect in every way, the setting, the furnishings, and every accessory you could ever need. So close to town with the amazing restaurants of Haven, Brava. Boeme, and Zinc, yet remote enough to really feel relaxed. We cross country skied at Canterbury Farms, skied at Butternut and Catamount and just loved every second of it. Caitlin and Vik are such attentive hosts. Would love to return

Wonderful property

We had a fantastic long weekend at this beautiful house. From the moment of booking, the owners, Caitlin and Vik, were extremely helpful and informative. The house itself is wonderful - spacious and really well appointed. Lots of room to cook, eat, spread out, play board games and relax. The beds were extremely comfortable and the kitchen is really well stocked. The property around the house is great, lots of room to explore. We took a very pretty walk into Lenox and also visited nearby Pleasant Valley Wildlife sanctuary which is an easy walk from the house. Also convenient to Jay Peak ski resort. Overall we had a wonderful break and would highly recommend this vacation rental.

Our favorite getaway

We are a group of 10 professionals who love to get away for the long weekend in January every year. We have tried different properties in the Berkshires but this is by far our favorite, which explains why we have now stayed here 4 times. We look forward to it every year. Caitlin, the owner, is wonderful, and extremely responsive to any requests or concerns we may have. The house itself is immaculate and comfortable, with plenty of room for 10 people to coexist without getting in each other ‘s way. We are always sad to leave.

Perfect place for a peaceful family getaway

We loved that this home was luxurious and kid friendly; it had classic country house charm and came equipped with toys, children’s books and a crib. The fire place room was our favorite place to congregate - plenty of couch space and things to do for people of all ages. We ate very well in Lenox - It’s roughly a 5-10 minute drive to reach a number of outstanding restaurants and the kitchen is fully equipped for cooking at home too. A wonderful time was had by all!

Some hiked thru the woods up to Pleasant Valley! Up the road from Tanglewood. With bird sanctuary, Tanglewood, Shakespeare, and Lenox center so close, what more could one want! It was perfect!

Multi-Family Getaway

I rented this home for a long weekend with a number of other families and we couldn't have been more pleased with the home! The kids (aged 1.5-4.5 years old) had such a great time exploring the grounds and the home...this house was so well planned for them, from toys and separate eating space to stain spray by the laundry! And we had a wonderful experience with local babysitters. Equally important, our friends traveling without kids had separate space to sleep and get ready without the kids underfoot. We all loved walking down to visit the nearby horse farm and some enjoyed nice runs and walks to downtown Lenox and Tanglewood. It was such a lovely weekend and we all just wished we could have stayed longer!

Wonderful Christmas stay in Lenox

We had a very comfortable and pleasant stay at this property for 5 nights over Christmas this year. Our party of 8 adults and 4 children was perfectly accommodated. The kitchen is great and well stocked with all cooking needs. The beds were exceptionally comfy. The living room had many places to lounge and enjoy the fire place and the extensive book collection. The hosts were communicative and helpful. The location cannot be beat if you are looking for a quaint New England getaway. We would definitely book again!

Perfect Berkshire retreat

Our multi-generational family of 10 felt this lovely home was a perfect fit with a fabulous layout! This house had the rambling feel of a country house with large gathering rooms and hidden corners to explore while also having all the creature comforts. The separate wings were great for privacy. The beds were very comfortable! The decor was unique and stylish. The tennis court was an added luxury. We walked to Tanglewood pulling 3 young ones in a wagon-amazing! We wholeheartedly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Caitlin Yadav

Host profile image
We live a few hours away, in Westchester, NY. We've been coming to the Berkshires ever since we first started dating, 14 years ago. And now we are thrilled to have our own place to bring our three children.

Why they chose this property

We couldn't resist this place! The house itself has tons of character. The surrounding woods are great for admiring or exploring. And the proximity to both Tanglewood and town could not be beat. As the previous owner explained to us, this is a very special place in the universe. So we feel lucky to have discovered it, and look forward to sharing it with you!

What makes this property unique

We are so grateful for all the feedback that we've received from guests in the past. We think they have a better idea of what unique benefits our home has to offer. While our guests' full reviews are available, here are a few parting thoughts from our guests in their own words:

“On one of our days there, as snow flurries surrounded us all day long, watching out the ceiling to floor windows in the living room area, we felt as if we were in a snow globe.” - Joann B 1/16/18

“Clean, Cozy, Magical, Perfect in every way! The bedrooms are separated to allow for different families to stay in different parts of the house as if they were private suites.” - Sondra 12/31/17

“Caitlin and Vik’s home was nothing short of amazing! Perfect place for a girls weekend to relax, recoup and spread out. They pay attention to EVERY detail. From every utensil in the kitchens, cosmetic towels and supplies in the bathrooms, extra throw blankets to giant cushy couches to hang out and enjoy a cozy fire.”- Lauren D 11/12/17

“We practically lived in the living room laughing, playing games and just enjoying each others company and reminiscing in front of the fireplace.” - Meghan S. 11/6/17

“Even though it was super cold while we were there, the house stayed toasty warm. We would definitely come back again!” - Becky K 3/7/17

“It is an older home that has been beautifully restored / maintained so has the aesthetic of an old home but has all the modern conveniences. It has all kinds of home-like touches that make it really convenient to just settle in and relax: a well-stocked kitchen with every implement you could ask for, tons of books on the shelves, a sound system that you can just plug your phone into, a TV with blue-ray player, a grand piano, a wood-burning fireplace, candles, throw blankets, etc."--Meral C 10/24/17

“The owners were extremely courteous and spared no efforts to make our stay a most pleasant one. Thank you Caitlin!” Luc H. 10/21/16
