House Rental
Step back in time and remember when life was less complicated. Come relax in this vintage full house on private dead end street. The setting is peaceful and surrounded by hemlocks. There are two bedrooms and two bathrooms and a full size deck. Entertainment includes WiFi and a TV with roku and Netflix. There are many fun activities in the area, including multiple ski resorts and beautiful hiking trails. Minutes from the Berkshires and also close to Vermont and the Capital region. My dad passed away in March of 2021 after a long stay in the hospital in which he accumulated many bills. This is his house and my childhood home. This old house was once filled with love, family, and laughter and is looking for someone to appreciate it again. Will you help me save Dad’s house? I hope that you...Step back in time and remember when life was less complicated. Come relax in this vintage full house on private dead end street. The setting is peaceful and surrounded by hemlocks.

If you have any issues please contact me. We are new to this and want our guests to be happy. There are couple things you should know: The key code for the door is 5429. The woodstove is for aesthetic purposes only. Please do not start a fire. The dresser in the master bedroom was suppose to be removed but fell through. You can use it if you like but the drawers are in need of repair. The dishwasher does not currently work. The garbage disposal does not work. Please pick up after your dog. Please don’t leave alot of dishes in the sink. The water has some iron in it, while safe to wash and cook with, it might not taste good, so bottled water is provided under the bar. The carpet is in need of renovation, but it is not something we can do at this time. But I assure you it is clean. I just shampooed the whole house with a professional grade carpet steamer. If the dehumidifier in the small bedroom stops running, could you please empty the water, I’m trying to keep the moisture level down in the house and comfortable for guests. It also only works when the the light switch is on. Thank you. Please enjoy your stay.

Keep on trucking.....photos are not true to what is reality....
Keep looking unless you don't mind trash in the yard all over and more than a Project in the Making situation. Way too much to deal with for the price and better off finding a chain hotel and driving from 20-30 minutes away or pitch a tent in a meadow somewhere. Sadly there were several interior issues including sharing the space with mice, it was not cleaned prior to arrival with dirty coffee maker with coffee in the well with mold on top. The heat didn't work and the water doesnt drain from the main tub. I am probably the first person that rented this place and obviously the host has not been here recently. There was so much trash in the yard it was an eyesore and I feel bad for the neighbors. The water is gross and I knew it was not drinkable but it also smelled so bad of rotten eggs that taking a shower was not fun and made your hair stink. I don't know how these listing sites can condone allowing crummy places to be rented to the general public. I did get a refund on the cleaning fee because hey it wasn't cleaned and that was pretty obvious. I would keep on trucking and find somewhere else or sleep in your car.
