Nice cabin in the woods
Quaint cabin tucked away in the Berkshires. For those vacationing with a pet, be aware that on Labor Day weekend this neighborhood puts on a fireworks show right by this house. Also, there really is not any yard, just a small patio. Lots of great hiking in the area.

Fall (ish) mountain stay
This cabin was really nice. It was in an excellent location and in good shape. I especially appreciated the welcome binder with the restaurant suggestions and town information. I would definitely recommend this property.
