| We had a wonderful month of July '09 at Two Streams Farm. You can never be too sure what a place is going to be like from the internet so we were nervous. But the moment we drove in the driveway, we knew that we could put our fears to rest. It felt like we had arrived home, and with each passing day this warm, homey feeling increased. The house is beautifully laid out with the master suite on the first floor for privacy and the rest of the bedrooms upstairs. Each room is bright, large, and beautifully furnished with New England antiques and lovely rugs. The first floor living room area provides space to relax as well as a amazingly appointed open kitchen. I really enjoyed cooking here! Best of all is the screened-in porch where you can sit and watch the sunset over the trees. We really appreciated the very large and open yard that gave lots of sunshine to the house and, although you are in a very wooded area, it does not feel that way. Our 2 labs loved playing ball in the yard too. There is so much to do in the Berkshires one could never get bored. Each town has its own diversions be it museums, shopping, eating, hiking, golfing, theater, concerts, dance, etc. It is truly an amazing place to visit. But the nicest thing about Two Streams is that you can enjoy staying home and hanging out as much as anything. Curl up with a good book and let the time pass in comfort. You will not be disappointed with Two Streams or the Berkshires. |

Homeowner Response:
It's great having renters like Olivia and Randy, who really "click" with the house and who enrich the spirit of the place. Since we can't be there in the summer, having wonderful renters who treat the house like their own home is the next best thing.

| We spent the month of July enjoying the Berkshires from this lovely home in the woods. The house is beautifully furnished and has a kitchen stocked with all the basics and utensils one could ask for. We loved watching a porcupine waddle across the front lawn every afternoon and the night sky was breathtaking. The house owners were available to answer all questions we had and provided us with lots of information about the area. We actually hated to come home! |

| "Everything about the house is designed for comfort - from the kitchen where there is plenty of workspace and any utensil you might need - to the screened in porch where we gathered for drinks – to the many well lit corners where we retired to write or read. The appointments of the master bedroom suite and guest rooms give one the feeling of staying at a delightful B&B. The ventilation picks up summer breezes, which bring with them morning and evening bird songs and forest fragrances. The house is on a country road which provides a five mile roundtrip walk or jog through woods and next to babbling brooks. We particularly enjoyed the Sunday walks to the Sandisfield Arts Center, at the end of the road, for the poetry and short story readings. The libraries one finds throughout the house are filled with exciting literature. We never got to read the books we had brought. Our choices were pre-empted by our finds on the bookshelves. All the activities we enjoy such as swimming, hiking and attending performances at Tanglewood, Jacob’s Pillow, the Stockbridge Theater were within short rides. We even discovered the Community Center in Great Barrington where for a nominal fee you have access to a gym, a swimming pool and organized activities, such as bridge, hiking & canoe trips. The people that Hilde and Barbara suggested we contact for one thing or another were so helpful. It is a perfect house for those who need a quiet place to pursue intellectual activities, who enjoy relaxing in beautiful surroundings, who value cultural activities and who are looking for a carefree getaway." |
