We had a family gathering over four days of Thanksgiving, kids to grandparents. Quiet location in the woods, but just minutes to get into Great Barrington for shopping, exploring, hiking. The kitchen was well-stocked for cooking and serving a full turkey dinner for the crowd, except for a roasting pan big enough for a 24-pound turkey (family member who hadn't left their house brought one). We had two issues with appliances that we reported but it was the day we were leaving so we weren't around when they were repaired. House was immaculately clean, with several different seating areas for choices to watch football or read/knit/talk; beds all very comfy with duvets. The 100-1,000 stars were awarded by the two youngest grandchildren. Not only did they both get top bunks in their bedroom, they loved all the games in the game room and the outside soccer nets. Any questions we had before we arrived were answered promptly by the host. Definitely recommended.

House is beautiful and very comfortable. Each bedroom and bath was welcoming and cheerful. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware, dishes, and spices!!
Big fenced well-tended yard with lots of seating choices. BBQ grill made cooking easy.
Air-conditioners worked well and Wi-Fi strong to make it a very nice comfortable and productive stay (if you have to do some work).
Great house that is 10min drive to Great Barrington Town Center making foods pharmacy, and other shopping very easy.
Shay was always responsive making any issues easy to solve. Thanks Shay for a great stay.

This is a very lovely property, perfect for a long weekend with family. The bedrooms are spread out so that everyone had comfort and privacy. The house has all the expected amenities, lots of fun extras (the basketball game machine!), and has clearly been designed with guests in mind (love the labeling of light switches). Thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated our stay.

8 of us recently spent 4 nights at The Great Escape cottage. The house is perfect for a large group with plenty of spaces to find time alone plus gorgeous outdoor space and separate TV/game room area. The house was immaculately clean which is super important to me. It was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. One en-suite bedroom and another larger bedroom with hallways bathroom upstairs. There is another larger en-suite bedroom on the first floor with two more bedrooms (the lofted bedroom and the bunk room) off the game room which is a bit less central to the main living area. Great for privacy but less great if your party includes people who plan to use the TV/game room late into the night. A/C in every room which was great for all our various temperature preferences. The back and front yards are huge with lots of cozy places to sit. The hot tub is great as is the fire pit. I would return to this house in a heartbeat. Don’t hesitate if you’re considering the house!

We enjoyed a lengthy stay at this property over the summer. My kids loved the game room and the bunk room and we all enjoyed nights around the fire pit. The house is clean and well kept and very comfortable. The outdoor space is very spacious and private. The house is in a great location, close to the town and great restaurants, as well as lakes and swimming holes. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Nine friends and I gathered at Shay’s property to enjoy my bachelorette party! The house exceeded our expectations; it was incredibly spacious, modern, and had great outdoor spaces. My one friend especially enjoyed the basketball in the game room. I would recommend this home for all types of gatherings!
