Cute house that was perfectly arranged for our family. Kitchen is well stocked with spices galore! We cooked at home every night. Went hiking in both NY, CT and MA - super easy to get to all locations, beautiful views of mountains all around. Will definitely come back to this house again with our family!
We so enjoyed our three day stay at the cottage. It was incredibly well appointed, clean and so comfortable! We were in the area for a family wedding, so we didnt fully utilize all that the cottage offered, but loved all of the time we did spend there. We had some very pretty walks in the mornings with our little pup. We'd love to return at some point!
This home was a perfect place for a family reunion.

Delightful home in very quiet neighborhood near hiking trails. House had every amenity you might need (except tissues). Less than 20 minutes drive from Sheffield. Great restaurants in town. We very much enjoyed our stay in this house in the country and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to stay in the area.
We stayed at this home about the same time last year and we were so happy with everything about it, we jumped at the opportunity to stay there again. The house has absolutely everything you'd need and is close to Canaan, CT and Great Barrington, MA and everything the Bershires have to offer. Sabrina is a great host and responded within minutes to any questions I had. We HIGHLY recommend this home.
This was a very nice, private house close to the Berkshire towns we wanted to visit. Big master bedroom and very nice master bath. I wish we had seen the stairs to the upstairs bedrooms before we booked as the were very difficult for our senior dog.
Sabrina saw to everything. The house even came equipped with a spice drawer, games like badminton equipment, a kid’s bedroom with games and books, and nice touches like vases of flowers. Our family was amazed and impressed. The outdoor area in the front (and back) was big enough for our grandchildren to play badminton. We very highly recommend this place!
We’ve stayed a couple times now at Sabrina’s cottage in Sheffield. It’s the perfect location to being able to access Catamount Mountain for our winter trips! Only pray for more snow so we can have more fires.
This home was "as advertised" - plenty of room. Nice neighborhood setting. Well stocked kitchen & nice outside area in the backyard / deck. We used it as a base camp for section hiking the appalachian trail.
We needed a stay over en route to an early Sunday morning check in at Lime Rock Park and Sabrina’s place was perfect. Mom, Dad, 4 adult children and one super cool greyhound. Place was clean, well appointed and an overall great comfortable spot.
Beautiful home in great location - perfect weekend getaway for skiing, hiking, relaxing
This home is beautiful, modern but very cozy and comfortable, well-appointed (even with an adorable kids’ room full of games and books). We loved our (too short) time there & would return anytime. Thank you!
To a person, we wanted for nothing during our stay. House had everything we could possibly need on vacation. Quiet road, close to Canaan CT and Great Barrington MA, comfortable beds, large kitchen, big bedrooms, room to gather together. Not a single complaint.
We'd absolutely stay here again and if its available next year, we will!
Everything was great, the place is just what we needed, very close to Great Barrington and ski resort.
Very quite neighborhood, our host directions we’ll clear and timely. Thank you very much.
We loved our long weekend at Sabrina’s house! Perfect location, lots of hiking close by, and the house was spotless. We had three kids under 7 with us and they loved the bunk and all of the toys left there for them! The kitchen was well stocked with great pots and pans and plenty of room for all of us! We will definitely be back!
Home is located on a quiet wooded road, perfect for a getaway with friends. There are six chairs around the large kitchen table where we gathered for eating and chatting each evening. Very comfortable for our group of five with three bedrooms upstairs (King/Queen/Bunk beds), with additional options for sleeping on main floor downstairs. We would be happy to stay here again if our travels bring us back to this area of Massachusetts!
Stayed here with my family and it exceeded our expectations. Everything in the listing was spot on. We especially appreciated the fully stocked kitchen which made meal prep fun and easy. Loved the views off the back deck into the deep woods. Beds were comfy and bathrooms were working great and fully stocked. Very quiet and private location and just a stone's throw to little Sheffield which was very quaint (must try Roberto's for pizza/salads) and just a few minutes further to Great Barrington which was a wonderful artsy town with great food and shopping. All around a very memorable stay.
The house itself was beautiful and we really appreciated the outdoor fire pit (with the fire making kit). There were more than enough rooms to fit my party very comfortably. Also really enjoyed the two lawn games that were left in the back. Thank you for an amazing couple of days!
