Fun, funny, and a bit buggy
Everyone enjoyed staying here, there were lots of smiles but there were come concerns about the number of lady bugs in the bedrooms. It must have been their time to swarm, as there were a few in many of the rooms, presumably because some of the windows don't close tightly. Again, everyone had a fine time, and the location and the 2 or 3 block walk to town was perfect. It was charming and comfy and the many bedrooms were great.

Charming and comfy!
Five of travelled to Massachusetts for a brewery tour and we decided to get a house instead of the usual hotel. We are glad we did! This house was as advertised with lots of charm and character. The age of the house was apparent but in a good way. It felt historical!

Quaint, old house, very welcoming
The owner was responsive and quite helpful. The house itself is old and comfortable, and the yard large enough for four children aged 1 through 7 to play in and have a good time. But some of the furniture could use some re-upholstery. Aside from that, the house accommodated 13 of us and a dog quite adequately.

Perfect Thanksgiving reunion
Just the place for a Thanksgiving get together with adult siblings. Shelburne Falls is a wonderful village with great shops and a street festival the evening after Thanksgiving. The house is large, clean, comfortable, and charmingly quirky. A lot of stairs for older knees but definitely worth it. Pleasantly surprised to find a music room. Suited us perfectly. Next time we will stay longer!

Absolutely amazing!
We had such a wonderful stay this weekend! It was the perfect property to house our wedding party -- spacious yet private, beautiful outdoor space, cozy communal space indoors, and stocked with everything we could possibly need. Despite having a large group, we never felt cramped or crowded. Everyone loved the unique decor and classic New England vibes throughout the house. The proximity to Shelburne Falls can't be beat -- guests had an amazing time exploring the village and appreciated how walkable everything was. We highly recommend this property for your next Western Mass getaway!

Funky old house/easy walk to downtown
We knew this was an older three story house but it is not for older folks. Stairs were steep. Two bathrooms had showers in claw foot tubs so everyone used the walk-in shower on the 3rd floor. The weather was hot and humid while we were there so the one air conditioner (in the kitchen area) struggled to keep the room cool. It was hard to sleep in hot bedrooms, even with fans. We were not aware there were active train tracks nearby so were surprised by all the trains we heard. The back yard was pleasant and the home was within easy walking distance to town. Neighbors were friendly.

Cozy spot right near town
While the house is old, our extended family of ten fit comfortably. There are bedrooms and bathrooms on every floor. The host was very responsive. There are a lot of stairs so get ready for a climb from the driveway to the kitchen (which is on the second floor). The property is large and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay.

Lots of room--a few issues
The best thing about this property is that it is a large, very quirky house with lots of bedrooms, lots of character, very close and walkable to the village, so no need to drive to dinner, shopping or touring. There were a few downsides. There are 7 bedrooms, but not a comfortable place for 7 adults to sit and hang out. Chairs a little uncomfortable. There are no working TV's. When I inquired about bringing a firestick to connect, the owner did get back to me in a timely manner, but told me that there was no cable--that it had been disconnected. I was not able to use the firestick, as the TV's didn't have plugs to connect. This was deceptive, I feel, as the description states that there are TV's. Another issue is that the hallway on the 3rd floor is so narrow and close to the stairway that I worried I would fall down in the middle of the night walking to the bathroom. I understand that the old house probably is not up to code, but it was a little scary. All in all we enjoyed our stay but did have these concerns.

Lovely unique home.
Plenty of sleeping space for the 14 of us (although the layout of beds in each room was not the same as in listing). Three floors of bedrooms and living space, so be prepared for lots of stairs. All was clean and well-supplied. Susan was very responsive and helpful when we had questions. Main disappointment was that there was no propane in the grill, so if you plan to use the grill - check that there is propane before the stores close! The yard is a nice size for being outside and playing frisbee and yard games. Eating outside takes a bit of work since the kitchen is on the second floor, so carrying food down to the outside eating space was definitely a group project! Plenty of parking space for our 6 vehicles. Beautiful area with lots of lovely things to see.

Classic New England Home
The home is well-maintained c.1800s with original pine flooring, period details, thoughtful decor throughout, and an idyllic backyard. Susan is an excellent host and is very responsive. The home is a short walk to Shelburne Falls village center, with antique shops, bakeries and views of the Deerfield River. Definitely would recommend!

Nice Big Historic House
Spent 9 days over Christmas with family. Everyone really enjoyed the location, lots of winter activities. The house is historic and was spotless with comfortable beds and LOTS of room. Easy walk to downtown Shelburne falls where there are several good eateries, a grocery store, Pharamcy and a Candlepin bowling alley (really fun). In season, the flower bridge over the river is strikingly beautiful.

Great house great town
Such a beautiful antique home, from the fun art work everywhere and the wooden floors and beams.the seven private bedrooms, bathroom on all three floors. The owner and housekeeper attentive yet invisible. Our only regrets were not hiring the housekeeper to cater a meal or two and not having the time to get in a few strings of bowling at the adorable eight lane candle pin alley/bar. Otherwise we hit multiple restaurants, pubs, antique shoppes, book stores, clothing stores.... Shelburne Falls has everything. Don’t miss the glacial pot holes, or dip a line in the Deerfield River. Better yet take a guided raft down the rapids. Oh yes, we took a couple of short hikes with amazing rewarding views. Four days, 14 guests and we left wanting to do more! Thank you so much for sharing your home and town.
