*Please also note that two of the three first-floor bedrooms have curtains, while the third first-floor bedroom and the fourth (basement) bedroom do not have window coverings.
Neighborhood
The property itself offers much nature to explore, and just across the road is a reserve (also called Steepletop, after the flowers that grow plentifully in the area) with trails to enjoy.
There is so much to enjoy nearby, including candlelit dinner at the Old Inn on the Green, breakfast at the Southfield Store (also a great place for a quick coffee and picking up local provisions), and many hikes and nature spots. Not far from Southfield is Umpachene Falls–an excellent destination for hiking and swimming.
Steepletop is also close to both Sheffield and Great Barrington which have several grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, yoga, and more. You're also close to hiking and cultural institutions.
Getting Around
Steepletop Lodge is approx. 2.5 hours from Boston and 3 hours from New York City. To enjoy the expansive beauty of the region, you'll need a car to get here and get around--and the drive will be stunning! Since cell service can be inconsistent in the country, we recommend that you download the region's online maps to your phone before your trip.
We strongly advise using or renting a car that has all wheel or 4 wheel drive to access the property, especially in the colder months.
