Joanna’s sites are beautifully and thoughtfully laid out. The airstream was comfortable and fun to sleep in. Joanna was communicative and helpful. We saw turtles in the pond, a barred owl, lotsa birds and deer walked by too.

Watch the ariel acrobatics of the swallows swoop into the barn to feed their chicks! The two streams feed into the huge Natchaug River right across the street which is great for fishing, or spending the day at Diana's pool basking on the rocks with a picnic lunch.

1 site · Lodging5 acres · Granville, MA
We are passionate makers of things: literary, painterly. Carpentry and upcycling. We have a big noisy friendly dog on about five wooded acres. There are two cabins - an adorable A-frame and a sprawling 1970's-era pad abt 100 ft away. In between the two is a wood shop with an apartment upstairs. Many gardens, fruit trees, art installations. Grills for cooking out, walking trails for good dogs :) White rasberries, elderberries and peaches in the summer! All in a tiny *hill town* in the sweet Berkshire foothills. Surrounded by sprawling old apple orchards, pick-ur-own apples. Hiking and biking. Maple sugaring and XC skiing nearby. Short drive to Easthampton, Noho and Granby Ct. Road trip to Becket (Jacob's Pillow&Dream Away Lodge) , North Adams (Mass MoCa), Pittsfield
