Great home and great host.
We loved this spacious and lovely log cabin overlooking the river which we enjoyed with family and friends. The setting in the Berkshires is just beautiful. The kitchen is well stocked and great for cooking. Also Melissa is an extremely attentive and responsive host and took care of the few issues that arose immediately. Many thanks!

Cozy Cabin
Lovely little cabin in the country. Fully stocked with everything you would need for cooking and relaxing. Only exception is the word "modern" in the description. The cabin is very traditional, with lots of traditional decor items and is very much a family cabin. We had a nice stay and enjoyed our time in the area!

Cabin in the woods
I surprised my wife and 2 teenage daughters with a relaxing getaway weekend with this amazing cabin in the woods. After an easy commute from CT, we enjoyed the drive through the woods on a dirt road to the house itself. We were very happy with our choice in selecting this listing and had an amazing time! The owner was very friendly and answered any questions we had in a timely manner. Everything that you needed was available including coffee, tea, sheets and towels, firewood, etc. It is a short drive to both Catamount and Butternut ski resorts and there are plenty of dining options within a 15-20 minute drive. I would highly recommend staying here.

Cool cabin in the woods. Great location, great price, great communication with owner, well stocked with necessities. Easy check in/ out. Plenty of room for 10 (4 adults - 6 kids). Games/ puzzles/ Handmade chess/ checkerboard table will keep you busy by the fireplace. Location - Everything is an easy 15-20 min away. Brewery/ Downtown Great Barrington/ Shops/ Outlets/ Catamount Mountain. Owner Melissa super responsive and easy to communicate with. Will definitely keep as option for another stay.

Hidden gem
This was such an adorable and secluded little property. We went with children and friends to go tubing at Butternut nearby. The house was absolutely perfect for us. It has a large property, and was so cozy and rustic. A great escape from the city, and exactly what we were looking for. The owners were lovely and the house was clean. Would absolutely recommend. We had an amazing weekend.

Amazing location
My family had the most amazing trip. There was 11 of us, but the house is so roomy we had plenty of space to spread out. The host is sucked with just about everything you could need for a getaway, they even had baby gates for the deck for our dogs. All in all it was an ideal house for a large family vacation.

Perfect!
Everything about our stay at Hill House was just as we hoped it would be. The cabin has everything you will possibly need. While the cabin itself is secluded and quiet, there is plenty to see and do within a short drive. Be sure to read the Welcome book that Melissa has so thoughtfully left. It describes some of the local attractions along with detailed directions. Stay here! You will be glad you did!

Secluded and comfortable
We were in Hillsdale for a wedding. Only there for 2 nights. The home is located down a dirt road and we arrived at night which made it a little creepy LOL. GPS brought us right to the property. Kitchen has everything you could ever need in a rental. Lots and lots of furniture which made it easy for my family and I to sit and chat in the living room. There's no plug in the upstairs bathroom so everyone needing to use a hairdryer or curling iron had to go to the downstairs bathroom. Upstairs shower head may have been a water saving device because it was really hard to remove the shampoo from your your hair. There's two downstairs bedrooms and one bedroom upstairs that has two bunkbeds, a trundle and a single bed. Every bed except the single was hard. Ceiling fan needs to be tightened as it wobbles when it's on. The family member in the downstairs bedroom below the bunkbeds heard creaking whenever we walked around the upstairs room. There's lots of notes around the property to help you with what to do when checking out. All and all it was comfortable for my family but I wished we had time to walk the grounds.

Remote but accessible location
The cabin was secluded from town centers but was accessible to many locations we wanted to be at in the Berkshires. It provided nice down time from the hustle and bustle. We enjoyed using the chiminea for s’mores, the children enjoyed the playground equipment and a short adventure hike to the green river. The frogs in the pond made for delightful friends. The location had many amenities provided which made it easy to travel. Many reminder notes posted throughout cabin. Many personal items and curios as well- important to consider if you have children. Washer and dryer worked but had some kinks to troubleshoot. Loose drawer pulls/screws noticed in a few spots and was shared with owner. May be asked to leave at noon instead of 2 pm if other guests are arriving. Great place to bond with family.

Perfect stay for a large group of cyclists!
Photos don't do this place justice! 13 of us stayed for two nights for a nearby gravel bicycling event. Parking was easy (we had 5 cars), and bike storage was also PERFECTION with the downstairs basement! The house is well stocked with more dishes than your party could ever dream of using, clean as a whistle, and charmingly decorated. There are also nearby towns with plenty of restaurants (that stay open until 9pm on Sundays!). The host, Melissa, was very responsive and a pleasure to talk to. And of course, as a group of cyclists, I can't fail to mention the great biking roads surrounding the house -- just be wary of (or excited for) lots of elevation/climbing. We would definitely stay here again! Thanks Melissa!

Used as home base for my daughter’s Berkshire wedding.
Was close enough to family and venue to be convenient but felt like a restful retreat from all the activities. Quiet except for the rush of the thawing Green River. Our dogs were allowed and chilly walks with them were followed by warm afternoons and evenings by the fire. Hosts very accommodating, laid back and clear communication. Thank you, Gilbert family! We’ve done the spring….tempting to book a summer and fall! Each season probably holds its own magic. Highly recommend the Gilbert Hill House.

Fantastic stay
This was exactly what we were looking for! 12 of us (adults) went for a weekend getaway to celebrate my dads 60th. This home did not disappoint. We did get snow 1 day which required us to stay put. But we were not mad because the home was so cozy it just felt right and Im actually happy it snowed. The view of the river was so pretty especially with fresh snow. They took care of the driveway with a plow so we didnt have to worry about getting stuck. The owners were so amazing answering ALL my questions before during and after my trip. Looking forward to staying again!

Great location!
This cabin is in a great location for the Berkshires and Hudson Valley. The property has a fair amount of privacy and the house was cozy and welcoming. We didn’t cook but there were plenty of pots and pans, etc. if we had chosen to. The kids loved that there were 2 top bunks so they both could be up high! The place could use some new mattresses and but it was fine for a couple of nights.
