“Brian’s place was the perfect spot for our family. We especially enjoyed the games, DDR, air hockey, and foosball. The hot tub was clean, hot, and relaxing. All the cooking supplies you need, including an awesome grille. And cozy spots to relax. We did not want to leave. Host was there to help as needed! We would love to stay here again.” – Nicole
“We had a pleasant peaceful stay, kitchen had almost everything for a nice home cooked breakfast lunch and dinner. Host was very friendly, very attentive and had all of our best interests in mind! One of the nicest Cabins I have been to for a weekend getaway. I would definitely recommend this location to get away from the everyday stressors!” – Ruben
“Stay here! Stay here! Nine friends and I stayed at The Berkshire and had an amazing time. Brian and his wife have l curated a lovely space that seamlessly blends comfort and relaxation. Whether indoors or outdoors, there are abundant hangout spots, ensuring that even with a large group, you never feel crowded. While we didn’t have young children with us, I noticed the thoughtful inclusion of games and activities specifically tailored for little ones!” – Shannon
