Great open kitchen/living room/dining with high ceilings; 3 large bedrroms and 2 full baths; great outdoor space. Also fun playspace fir kids in basement.
We spent a short weekend here in Stockbridge to attend the Naumkeag Pumpkin Show. The kids (2 + 4) were in amazement the entire time. The house was a fantastically creative environment with books, games, toys, and a massive yard with swings.
A+ would stay again.
Lovely easy living home in the Berkshires. Fantastic location. The house is on a nice quiet road close to everything we wanted to do—Tanglewood, Shakespeare and Co, kayaking on the Stockbridge Bowl….. Tom was very responsive to our questions. And this house has a wonderful back porch. We spent most evenings and mornings there
Rainbow Haven is quaint, quiet, private, clean, well-appointed and perfectly located. We were 2 families with kids ranging from (8-10) and a 1yr old Rhodesian Ridgeback - we thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Sharpe’s place. Plenty of activities for everyone to enjoy, comfortable bedding and gracious common-spaces. We had lunch in Lenox at Zinc bistro (yum). We will definitely be returning. .
Beautiful home cozy clean great setting 15-20 mins to all of our fav locations Stockbridge, Lenox, Great Barrington and hiking trails. House was well appointed and very comfortable. The kids had plenty to do, great selection of kids book and fun murals and scenery painted throughout the home. We are look in g forward to heading back next season. Tom and Susanna were great and very responsive with all communications. Thank you& see you soon!
This is one of my favorite rental properties ever! It looks just like the pictures — spacious, colorful, and happy. You feel like you're tucked away in the woods, but everything you need is close by. My 95-year-old dad loved the first floor queen bedroom with nearby bath and sitting out on the huge, peaceful back porch listening to the rain. We loved the well-equipped kitchen, the hand-painted wall murals and all of the natural light. Check-in could not have been easier and Tom and Susanna were super responsive. My dad is telling everyone he talks to how great it is. : ) We would stay here again a heartbeat.
Awesome stay here! The house is super cool, great location and easy to get to - would be a great place for any season with a big backyard, patio, location to ski mountains, etc. etc. the owner and family are very inviting, super easy to work with, and everything was great!!
This house is very attractive; conveniently located and in pristine condition.
The owners were a pleasure to work with and very accommodating.

Charming lovely home!
We were two families of four and came up for the long holiday weekend. The house is spacious and welcoming and clean. Very kid friendly. About a 15 minute drive to everything - Butternut and the town of Lenox.
We had a great time! The owner, Tom, was very responsive and helpful with recommendations for places to eat. Left out some kid stuff for the toddlers to use. Would definitely come back!

A beautiful home for a family reunion
Our family of 6 spent Thanksgiving together at this beautiful house. The house was perfect! We just loved the floor-plan. There is a wonderful open downstairs with the kitchen completely open to the large living space that also includes a lovely wood table with ample room for everyone to gather for family meals. This allowed all of us to really spend our time together for this family reunion. We had a wonderful time cooking in the kitchen - it has a large island that made it possible for many cooks to work together on meals. There is a modern gas stove, a new refrigerator/freezer, and plenty of great kitchen appliances to make cooking easy. The location is great: it is close to Stockbridge, yet is also in a secluded spot surrounded by trees. The rooms are large and comfortable. We had relatives visit for one night, and to sleep 8 adults, we brought a queen-sized air mattress that fit perfectly in the small "TV" room on the first floor. This way each of the four couples had their own room. It is a perfect location, a beautiful house, and we had a wonderful time here. Thank you so much to the Sharpe family!

Perfect Retreat!
This is a gorgeous space located in a quiet wooded area only a short distance from the quaint town of Stockbridge. My five college friends and I enjoyed the house immensely with it's beautiful interior design, spacious sun-filled rooms, and cozy atmosphere. Tom, the owner, was very responsive to all inquiries and made the stay that much more enjoyable. The only issue we encountered was our lack of knowledge about the TV/entertainment center. We were trying to watch the Royal Wedding beginning at 6 a.m., but could not tune into any local stations. We did not want to bother the owner at that early hour. Eventually one of our tech savvy group (we're all over 50, so it was a bit of a challenge) pushed the correct series of buttons and we tuned in just as the bride was walking into the chapel. A written set of instructions about the TV system would be helpful.
I would rent this house again in a heartbeat. I would also remember to spray for ticks before I went for one of the lovely surrounding hikes. Kudos to the Sharpes.

Beautiful, comfortable and clean
We enjoyed a wonderful girls' weekend for 6 in this beautiful Berkshire home. There was plenty of room for everybody to spread out, and the house was spotless. It is surrounded by woods, which were stunning, covered in snow. Nicely located close to the highway, we were able to enjoy quick access to Stockbridge, Great Barrington, and Lenox. The kitchen was well-equipped and the beds were comfy. We hope to be back again!

Great vacation home, perfect for small children
Perfect rental home for families with toddlers on their first time ski adventure. We loved the open space, girls’ room, toys, Thomas trains, stuffed animals, play room swing, and ride on vehicles. TV room was perfect place to stash baby in pack and play overnight. Bedrooms were comfortable, kitchen very updated (I loved the convection oven) with butcher block counter and bar stools that made feeding kids easy, and downstairs tub was large enough for several children. Heating is complicated because you need to adjust individual units in each room. Gas fireplace is nice centerpiece and very warm but keep children away. Butternut ski area is 15 minutes away and a great place to take lessons or ski for a few days at novice-intermediate level. We had a great time and the kids did not want to go home!

Lovely family house in idyllic quiet location
We had a very enjoyable stay as a family in this home over the Easter break. The owners were very pleasant and helpful and provided a welcoming atmosphere. We have 3 small children - 2 year old twins and a 5 year old - and they had a ball playing in the big open living room. There were many toys provided which was fantastic and kept them occupied so we could relax. The house is light and airy with very comfortable furnishing and lovely views of the woods. It also has a gas log fire which gave the house a very cosy atmosphere in the cool evenings. We also stayed with another couple who were able to enjoy the downstairs bedroom and bathroom, while we could use the upstairs. The kitchen was well equipped and the big island bench was great for preparing food and having a glass of wine. The outdoor decking was also a lovely sunny place to stretch out and rest, or play some mini-basketball. The one not-so-nice moment involved ticks - which can't be helped at all as they're endemic to this area. My husband found one crawling along his arm after sitting on the grass, my daughter had one crawling on her forehead and my son had one latched on behind his ear. So make sure you do thorough tick-checks at the end of every day. Overall, we had a great stay and would thoroughly recommend it to others.

Wonderful warm family vacation house
We spent a three day weekend at this house in January and everything was wonderful. My husband and I took my daughter (6) and son (4) on their first ski trip to butternut and brought along a grandparent. The house was perfectly suited for us with a fantastic kids room that my kids just loved and very comfortable and separate spaces for the adults. The home is warm, fresh and cozy. It's well stocked with everything we needed. Tom was very helpful and responsive. Highly recommend, especially if you have small children.

It really was a magical getaway
My girlfriends and I wanted a quiet, serene place for a relaxing getaway. The Sharpe's provided just that in their wonderful home in the Berkshires. Their house is so warm and welcoming. Between the snow fort and snowman in the back yard and the cozy couches in front of the fireplace. It just feels like home the minute you walk in. Also, there is so much to do in the area; great local restaurants, shopping and Ski Butternut. Tom was so amazing at answering ALL of my questions and accommodating us on a short notice. We will definitely be back!!!
