Twins Turn Septuagenarians
A surprise weekend to celebrate the 70th birthdays of our twin brothers. Four siblings and their spouses spent three nights in this wonderful mountain retreat honoring the long lives we have shared together. While staying in the Baldwin home was comfortable and well-stocked, there was easy access to entertaining venues in Williamstown, Bennington and North Adams. Private and peaceful, Blackberry Steep was the perfect place to gather.

Amazing Holiday Stay
My extended family enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday at this home. It was spacious and comfortable, providing an amazing retreat in which to cook together, relax together, retreat and unwind. The home was well stocked with essentials and was a short drive from places to restock. It was a beautiful place to spend the holiday--with even a bit of snow to make it unforgettable.

Excellent accommodation
We did have a team member slip and fall on the bottom step. He was just bruised up but a safety tread might not be a bad idea

Beautiful, family-friendly home
We stayed here with 4 adults, 2 kids and a baby and it was a wonderful stay. No issues or complaints whatsoever with anything. We were especially impressed by the huge amounts of children's books, toys and activities, our children were entertained for hours with the air-hockey table and toys -- it was hard to get them to want to go outside! But we greatly enjoyed the outdoor parts of the property, the fire pit, hammock and hot tub were a blast. Love the well-stocked kitchen, little smores kits the owner provided, along with many other thoughtful touches! Conveniently located to lots of fun places to go. Would love to rent again in the future.

Beautiful home in the forest.
Don’t let the unpaved roadways dissuade you. The approach to this wonderful home is in a lovely forest and when you enter the property you are in for an awesome stay. This a charming house on a beautiful property. Great open floor plan (on first and second floor) with super spaces to hang out with family and friends. Bedrooms were very good. Mattress in master bedroom was A+. Lovely porch balcony. Wonderful landscaping on balcony and outside. Members of our group loved the hot tub and hammock! Did not use the fire pit - but lots of new seating in yard. Large open property with abutting woods. Everything felt very fresh and new. Great appliances. Terrific communication with host. Very helpful before and throughout stay. They were very accommodating and welcoming. Would love to visit again!
