When I tell you that River Cottage is a dream
When I tell you that River Cottage is a dream house to stay in when you visit Great Barrington or Southern Berkshire County, I really, really mean it! This home is hands down one of the best locations to book. It is not only beautiful, but perfectly located in downtown Great Barrington, right by all of the coolest shops and restaurants. And even though it is in town, it’s down a very quiet street that made our trip as calm, quiet, and restful as we hoped. The homeowners have done a gorgeous job with the property- the design is exactly as described (chic, modern!) but also extremely considerate to what we might need and how we hoped to feel. It’s clear that they love this space. Every single detail was accounted for, and there really wasn’t a single thing that we lacked. Even the bedding and towels were so soft! Staying at River Cottage was just as good as staying at a boutique hotel, especially thanks to the Posto Property Team. We were really, really well taken care of, and the communication was perfect- just the right balance of responsive, helpful, caring, and professional, while also staying personal and human! Favorite parts of this home for us were the kitchen (everything we needed and all new appliances- great for cooking after we stopped by the Great Barrington Farmer’s Market on Saturday!), the bathrooms & laundry (spacious and comfortable), and the fenced in backyard! There was a grill back there, a riverside fire pit, and a safe & secure place for our dog to run around and sniff. Truly couldn’t choose a better spot in The Berkshires, especially if you want to strike a balance between easy access to town and a fantastic home base for all sorts of adventures! We’ve stayed in some beautiful hotels and Airbnbs before, but this will be a home we hope to return back to soon.
