We had a fantastic family vacation at Sweetwater! The property is beautiful, and the outdoor space was perfect for our family. Our kids loved having room to play, and we enjoyed spending time outside and taking in the peaceful surroundings.<br/>The location was ideal, just a short drive to public beaches and downtown Great Barrington, making it easy to explore the area while still feeling tucked away and relaxing.<br/>The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating throughout our stay, which made the experience even more enjoyable.<br/>Overall, this was the perfect spot for a family getaway, and we would absolutely stay here again.

Fantastic place for a couple of weekends to ski at butternut. Our kids loved the house, it was as close as you can get to the slopes - truly great overall experience. Would go again, for longer. Very responsive host.
