Magical lil retreat
I had a wonderful time. The lil stone house school is restored in a loving way! It feels homie and cosy and has a lot of stories to tell. The location is great for seeing museums or just go for a hike. Rich and Cheryl are on top with everything and very nice hosts!

Wonderful, peaceful.
Our stay at this historic schoolhouse was terrific. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. We slept well there - as the two available large rooms up and down afforded flexible sleep areas. Beds comfy. The kitchen was well equipped and the amenities such as foil, plastic wrap, tea, a Keurig machine, extra paper plates etc made our stay very convenient. The history of the place is fascinating. Many thanks!

A Unique and Lovely Place
This charming converted schoolhouse is well-supplied for the present day while reminding you of a bygone age. It's set among beautiful rural woods and pastures, private, but with ideal access to local attractions south, like Stockbridge and Lenox or north, like Williamstown and North Adams. The owners are extremely helpful and friendly, and they also simply allow you to enjoy your stay. A great place!

Lovely spot - wonderful stay
The Old Stone School was a truly exceptional place to stay - and the owners were also delightful people, willing to help and refer us to interesting places. We stayed two nights - it was big for the two of us, but decorated nicely and with a full downstairs that has all sorts of ephemera from the old schoolhouse days. Would stay again next time we are out at Tanglewood. Heads up - the bathroom is on the first floor, the bedroom on the second. Minor inconvenience, but not possible to change it within the building structure. Don't let this deter you! It is a magical place. And we will visit again.

Great weekend getaway
Our short stay at the Stone School Cottage was wonderful. Rich was very responsive to a minor issue we had with the TV. The cottage was exactly as listed with an unusual layout (bathroom downstairs from the living area) but it wasn't a problem. It's located within a short distance of a lot of activities, restaurants, etc. We'll definitely stay again if we're back in the area.

Unique experience and great location
We stayed with our 3 kids (2, 5, 7). The owners had a safety gate for our little ones and they enjoyed playing with all the toys and the actual school to play school in! We all slept upstairs (we brought a travel crib) with the older two children sharing the upstairs day bed (there are more beds downstairs but the kids preferred being with us). Having the kitchen and dining table was very convenient and the cottage had nice touches like soft towels and a well stocked coffee machine. The location is great for skiing. It’s under 10 mins to Jiminy and there are restaurants, a country store, and a coffee shop very close by. The owners are super helpful, flexible, and communicative.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay
The house was very clean, thoughtfully decorated and filled with history. The host was very responsive and made us feel welcome. There were a plenty of toys for my two kids to play with; they were never bored inside the house. The kitchen had everything you needed which my wife and I appreciated. Agreeing with with the prior reviewer that it was a perfect central base for exploring the Berkshire area. Overall, it was a special, unique experience.

Unique cottage, full of historic charm and character
Wonderful former schoolhouse, filled with interesting antique finds, furniture and decor - brought into the 21st century with care and a sensitive balance between preservation of historic character and modern conveniences to make our stay both comfortable and special. Rich was the perfect host, communicative and helpful but unobtrusive and respectful of our privacy. The location was a perfect central base for our weeklong exploration of the surrounding Berkshire region!

Wonderful place to stay and a Unique Experience!
We stayed at this property Sept 9 - 11th, and it was wonderful! Staying in a historical building that is certainly beloved by the community was a unique experience. You can sit and read all about the history of the school which is also provided. The home was extremely clean and the owners put special touches like fresh cut flowers in all the rooms and it is beautifully decorated and welcoming. The setting is perfect near a horse farm and just a few minutes from Mt. Greylock which we hiked on Saturday. The owner is so nice and checks in to make sure you have everything you need. We will definitely stay there again, and I highly recommend this property.

Great place to stay in Western Mass
I loved it. It is a very special place. We used it as a base for a cultural weekend. For Museums we went to Mass MoCA in North Adams, and the Clark in Williamstown. We also saw a dance performance at Jacobs Pillow, and on Saturday we saw the BSO at Tanglewood. I pulled a hamstring the day before we left, so I was not up for hiking. However, Mt. Greylock started at the end of the road that we were on, and the Pittsfield state forest was only a short ride away, as was Jiminy peak, where in the past we hiked in all these locations. Just a great place, and I will be looking to go there again next summer.

Stone house
We enjoyed our stay mostly we occupied the upstairs. Bathroom downstairs shower and toilet area a bit small. Stairs getting down we’re negotiable but a little tricky at night. Overall accommodations were as specified in Vrbo website. We were only hoping there would be less traffic outside of the house during the day. Farm tractors nearby at times. Owners were always very available checked on us periodically. They were very friendly and also left us with a nice bottle of wine. Sleeping at night was lovely with the windows open temperatures were perfect. Waking up to the sounds of neighing horses or roosters in the background. We would recommend for a couple getting away for a long weekend as we did.

Loved the history
Our family of four (2 adults, 2 teens) had a great stay. We loved the old school house, and the decor was so charming with information on the school's history and related decor--unique and fun! Hosts made lots of effort to make sure all the things you might need were there (place to charge devices from all the beds, for example). And they were very responsive, both before and during the stay. The kitchen and main sleeping area is upstairs, bathroom is downstairs, which was fine for us but could be an issue. Easy 10-15 minute drive to Jiminy Peak. Definitely would stay here again!

Like a cozy time machine
I stayed for two nights mid January 2022. It was cold and snowy, and while I enjoy the outdoors in the other three seasons, I was not interested in taking advantage of the beauty of the Berkshires in that weather. Thankfully the schoolhouse had everything I needed to enjoy a totally relaxing visit. The downstairs is like a trip back in time, but also a lovely place to hang out with huge, gorgeous windows letting in the winter light, a comfy day bed, and a desk. Upstairs is like it’s own large studio apartment and a good place to get comfy with some takeout and tv. If you’re looking for a surprisingly roomy spot for a quiet getaway, I’d highly recommend the school house.

Perfect mountain escape
The Stone School Cottage was an incredible find - beautiful, comfortable, well-appointed, super clean, and the softest bath towels I’ve ever encountered. Located on the road to Mt. Greylock, this gem was close enough to town to make grabbing essentials super convenient, but far enough out to provide the peace and quiet we were looking for. The farm down the street, with its collection of rescue animals (donkeys and alpacas and horses!), was an added bonus. Hosts Rich and Cheryl were just a text away. Really loved our weekend here.

A unique experience worth exploring
The other reviewers are spot-on when they say this school-converted-cottage takes you back in time. If you want to feel like you’re staying in small town America and you’ve been spoilt by the comforts of the city, you’ll love this place. It has everything you need for a weekend getaway. Rich communicated really well and made our check-in/check-out process really smooth. He also offered a late check out as there was no one else checking-in after us. We never really had issues during our stay.

Stone School Cottage is a Time Machine
If I had to describe this place in one word, it would be "Magical". The Stone School Cottage is a time machine that takes you back anywhere between 50-150+ years. By far the most unique place I have ever stayed at. I am pushing 30 and I felt like I was 7 again. The location is ideal for the Berkshire and walking distance from the entrance to Mount Greylock. The cottage is well equipped. Rich was an excellent host. Super communicative and attentive. I will most definitely be returning to this wonderful place.

Amazing cottage
We stayed at the Stone School Cottage for our 21st anniversary and had such an enjoyable stay. Communication prior to arrival was great. Our host Rich was extremely helpful and greeted us when we arrived. The cottage is an old one room school house and is tastefully done with period pieces. The classroom downstairs is filled with a lot of historical photos and written history and also has beautiful modern photos as well. The living quarters are upstairs with a four-poster bed and small kitchen (stairs are somewhat steep but have good handrails). The bathroom is downstairs and a little quirky in nature. Neither of these was a game breaker but something to consider if you have difficulty negotiating stairs. Very convenient location (25-30 minutes to Lenox and 20-25 minutes to Williamstown and a short drive to Greylock State Park). Neighbors have mini horses and alpacas within walking distance down the road which was a bonus for us as we are both horse/animal lovers. Would recommend this rental with two thumbs up (make that four thumbs up) and will definitely book again if/when planning a trip to the Berkshire’s.

Excellent Stay with excellent hosts
We chose the stone school cottage as a base to pick up our kids from their different music camps (either in Vermont or nearby town), and then did two days touring, one to MassMoCA, and one to the nearby Mt. Greylock. The location & the house were ideal to our family of 5. The best part was to meet the hosts Rich and Cheryl -- very generous with their time, very responsive to our needs, and very thorough to stock kitchen items. Netflix is a plus to my 12 and 16 year olds. Our dog-loving daughter had a pleasure to meet and walked with their friendly dog Maya while we were chatting with Rick and Cheryl. If there is one thing to improve in the future, it is the stove which I had a hard time to put frying pan evenly, but if you don't cook much or use oven instead, it is not an issue. We certainly will rent again if wanting a air-conditioned place instead of campsite in Berkshires. Again, thank you very much Rich and Cheryl for providing such a unique place and we had a great stay!

Charming and tranquil with historical decor. Cheryl and Rich have thought of everything including toys for the kids. There are many hiking trails nearby including Mt. Greylock which is just minutes away. Cheryl was there to great us and gave us many recommendations that were terrific. There is so much to do ! We loved sitting in the garden in the evening watching the horses walk by and listening to the rooster crow. Can't wait to return.

Unique and private destination
We had a lovely stay at the Stone School Cottage, which is a pleasant blend of rustic antiques and modern amenities. Located on a country road, the cottage manages to feel very private while being only a 5 minute drive from local eateries. Rich and Cheryl were wonderful hosts, responsive and easy to get in touch with, and have obviously put a lot of effort into making the Stone School Cottage reflect its historic origins.

The Stone School Cottage is a super-charming 1832 stone schoolhouse with a very high-ceilinged classroom on the first floor and a spacious living area upstairs. The decor is very tasteful and the feel is authentic but with up-to-date amenities, and Rich, the host, was generous and helpful in every way. We had a memorable, wonderful stay and give this the highest possible recommendation!

Quaint and comfortable place to stay in the Berkshires
The Stone School Cottage, complete with "old school" charm, is a perfect place to start and return to from your Berkshire adventures. It is a clean, quiet and comfortable place to relax after a full day. Just thirty minutes in any direction brings you to many restaurants, state parks, cultural exhibits and many opportunities to bike, hike, ski, snowshoe or walk. We highly recommend staying here.
