Country Home with Babbling Brook and Pond View- Minutes to Berkshire East Resort

3 Bedroom house, known as Flight's End, is for rent by night (two-night minimum), weekend, week or month. Great for romantic get away or a family outdoor vacation. Not a party house. Fifteen minutes to Charlemont, Ashfield and Shelburne Falls. One hour to Amherst, North Adams, Pittsfield.

House is located on a brook and across the road from a private pond (not suitable for swimming). Fifteen minutes to Berkshire East for skiing and zip line tours or Zoar Outdoor and Crabapple Rafting for rafting, kayaking, rock climbing, zip line tours, etc. Kenneth Dubuque State Forest is a 5 minutes walk. Good for hiking, biking, horseback riding, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.

Drag a lawn chair over to the pond, fetch a glass of wine and watch the antics of geese, ducks and maybe a beaver while the sun sets beyond the pond. The babbling brook has places where kids can play in an old swimming hole, catch minnows, and build rock dams. House sleeps 6 - two rooms with double beds, one room with a queen bed. There's room in the basement for two more on twin bunkbeds if you don't mind a basement.


Newer appliances: House has a new Energy Star washer and dryer, gas stove and microwave. Mitsubishi heat pump for heat and AC added in 2017; fans available for upstairs bedrooms. Wi-Fi satellite internet is available and reaches the back yard and the nearby pond and brook areas. We have a gas grill, a small fire pit and a folding picnic table along with many outdoor chairs.

Just as pictured
My partner and I were in MA to drop our eldest at Smith College for their first year. We chose Flight's End for the location and the fact that we were allowed to bring our pups with us. It was incredibly peaceful and just what we needed during an otherwise emotional time with such a big transition for our family.

Peaceful Getaway
Flight's End was more wonderful than we anticipated. The home is cozy with all the things you need for a relaxing visit. We enjoyed the beauty of the area, the excitement of the pond (kayaking, otters, beavers and ducks) and took some of the helpful suggestions of our hosts. We will definitely be bac!

Great relaxing stay
We had a wonderful couple of days relaxing here. The kids found plenty to do between the pond and canoe, brook, and fields.We visited the nearby Mohawk Trail State Forest and enjoyed it. Everything we needed was available, and the house was very clean.

Weekend Getaway at Flight's End
Although brief, our stay at Flight's End was fantastic. The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. We really enjoyed the beautiful pond view and surrounding countryside. It all made for a wonderful weekend.

Great location!
We loved the location! The property was beautiful! Loved the pond & wildlife. The house was just like the photos. 3 comfortable bedrooms, and bare mattresses in the basement. (We all enjoyed the upstairs bedrooms.) The only bummer was that the washing machine was broken.... which was one of the reasons we chose this house, since we were in town for work and needing to wash our work clothes throughout our stay.

Best stars display and shooting star sighting
Even though we did not spend daytime in the house, the night celestial view was breathtaking. I don’t remember seeing so many stats ever, and the shooting star sighting was worth the mosquito bites. We hope to return soon. Thank you !

Cecilia

Disliked: Cleanliness
Beautiful and quiet country setting but the home's furnishings are dingy and dated. The kitchen faucet leaked the entire time we were there. Notes on what to do or not do were all over the house which was a bit annoying. The expectation that we were to strip beds and do laundry when we left was too much. The beds in the musty unfinished basement should not be listed as possible sleeping locations.

Pleasant stay in a tranquil setting
Property was as described. Clean, well appointed. Very quiet and serene area and neighborhood. Pond just across the street is nice to look at but tremendous amount of canadian geese droppings made walking anywhere near it unpleasant.

Amazing place!
A few friends and I went to this place over the weekend and fell in love. The place is just perfect for about 8 people or so. With 4 bedrooms, and living room, kitchen, and dinning space it's like going away to a house. The owner gave us full privacy but was within hands reach. The view was breath-taking. With a stream in the back, and a pond right across the house. Perfect fire pit place for a little evening bonfire. It's an amazing place for a get away.

Quiet and Comfortable
If you want a quiet getaway this place is great. Bring a large frying pan and a sharpe knife. Everything else for cooking in is there. We were comfortable using the first and second floor bedrooms. We did not use the basement sleeping quarters. The house had excellent information for restaurants and things to do in the area. I gave it five stars because we got exactly what we wanted.

Lovely stay!
The family had a lovely stay over labor day weekend - we really enjoyed canoeing the pond and enjoying the outdoors. The weather was fantastic, so we were able to get out and about - the nearby state park had some great hiking. For those of you with little ones, they do have a toddler bed and a pack and play (as well as a play set the one-year-old adored)- although the place isn't childproof. Because there were large spaces between the stair railings, we moved the toddler bed to the pond room to avoid having the three year old take a wrong turn in the middle of the night.

Country home away from it all. 3 adequate bedrooms. Kitchen supplies except for salt and pepper. Couldn’t figure out how to use the television, even with instructions. A book of house “ RULES “ that would choke a horse. I felt like I was back in the army

Filthy
House had cobwebs and filthy light switches that’s just the beginning. Don’t stay here if you are a clean person. Also way too many chores why charges all the fees if you want the people staying there to do all the cleaning work? Pond across the street looked nice. They have you remove the sheets but fold up the bed spread, so I’m guessing they don’t wash they bed spreads? Same with pillow shams? Gross.

Special location, very helpful and hospitable hosts
This house is exactly as listed and prior reviews characterize it well. The location is really beautiful - country road in the Berkshires near both an orchard for apple cider and dairy for yogurt they sell in our fancy Boston shops. The pond across the way is quite pretty, and the hosts are wonderful about access their kayaks and bike to explore the area, and helpful with stuff like the remote control, etc. The house was extremely clean, and comfortable. Deck/fire pit worked great outside with collapsible/portable table for dinner. We were in town for Zipline adventure at Zoar, and drove to Williamstown and back. Also did a big bike ride of the area (hilly, mostly dirt roads). Had we had more time, better weather we would have done some tubing in the Deerfield River. Berkshire East activites are just minutes away. Came out on Rte 2 and went back thru Northampton (to Boston), and saw the Dinosaur tracks on the way. Great drives, great long weekend. To manage expectations: - the stream behind is lovely and looks like a great place to explore but right now (late July 2023) the surrounding brush/trails are povergrown so tricky to access/see (i.e. with some work could be great swim hole/paths to wander) - pond was very pretty for kayaking, but the Canadian goose droppings were formidable - ensure you have good rubber-soled shoes/boots - basement rooms are really exactly as they look in the listing pics - AC worked downstairs but fans needed upstairs

Peaceful country home with serene babbling brook!
Sweet house is in the middle of NOWHERE. Didn't see a car or other human for days but the serenity was perfect.The handicapped accessible ramp to sliding doors worked perfectly for my 89 year old mom. Her first floor bedroom had no steps (photo on the listing shows a couple steps but they're on the opposite end of the room leading to the quaint "pond-view room" complete with 2 pair of binoculars.)The house has everything needed with ample extra blankets,towels etc and everything imaginable in the kitchen except we didn't find flatware until checkout as that was in a drawer facing OUT of the kitchen,not IN. Queen beds in each of the 2 upstairs bedrooms were VERY FIRM so I had a cheap 1.5" get memory foam topper delivered along with groceries by Instacart.I have serious spine/back problems so usually pack an unopened 2" topper even for upscale hotels or the in the Caribbean.Its placed under the mattress pad so I leave it for comfort of next guests or as a "tip" for housekeepers.The house has a well organized book with instructions about everything. WIFI is sufficient but bring a booster if that's important for you.My family gathered for buriel of my sister's ashes nearby.The babbling brook was perfect for peaceful relaxation and we all enjoyed our stay despite the sad circumstances.Was able to bring my dog & could have pitched a tent if needed for more people. Host is very kind and helpful but not intrusive.This is a well-used homey house but not luxurious.Perfect for us!

2nd Time, Just as Charming
This was our second time visiting Flight's End and it was just as delightful as the first. There was a new sofa and everything else was just as we remembered. We took advantage of the quaint surrounding towns for some shopping and lunch, had a fire in the fire pit and enjoyed the coziness of the home.
