What guests think
At The Meadows House @ Otis Ridge w/ 7-person hot tub, guests consistently praise the peaceful setting, ample space for groups, relaxing hot tub, scenic views, and a responsive host, with easy access to Berkshires sights and nearby Otis Ridge.
Most find the house clean, comfortable, and well equipped for cooking and hanging out. Several reviews highlight game room fun and pleasant porches for relaxing. A few mention narrow stairs, minor wear, low shower pressure, or a fiddly hot-tub cover, and one review notes dining and entertainment aren't very close. Expect a quiet, roomy base for a laid-back Berkshires getaway.

The rental property was just as described online. We had a very relaxing time. We also enjoyed playing all the games provided. This is a beautiful location and very quiet area. We loved sitting out in the hot tub at night looking up at the stars. Really special experience.

Lars’ Otis home easily accommodated our group of 4 long-time friends, with plenty of sleeping and sitting options for all of us. The screened-in back porch was a lovely amenity, and it was delightful to descend the stairs each morning to the sun-drenched first floor. However, the stairs to the upstairs bedroom level and to the basement are narrower and more harrowing than typical stairs. The basement itself was a treat with a shuffleboard table, darts and other games. We could access the hot tub via the lower level, but it was difficult to release the ratcheting tie-downs to remove the cover, and it seemed like a lot of work to actually get in to enjoy it. I suppose that’s because Lars (or any guests, for that matter) would not want any critters accessing the hot tub! The beds were quite comfortable, but the bathrooms could use a bit of a refresh. The shower floors were a little moldy and the shower pressure was almost non-existent. Aside from the few issues mentioned, the home was a great place to stay to explore the Berkshires and enjoy a few days with great friends.

We are two families that travel together every year for a long weekend. This getaway did not disappoint. It was a beautiful home with amazing views! We enjoyed watching the 6 inches of snow falling from the hot tub! The house was big enough for all of us. Four adults and 3 teenagers. The teenagers had a great time playing video games and we all enjoyed the shuffleboard table! We could watch different movies on different floors! We made dinners and there was plenty of room for all of us around the table. We took a ride to nearby Stockbridge and the Lee Outlets. We didn't ski this weekend but the house is right next to Otis Ridge Ski area. A short walk through the back woods and we were on the side of the slopes watching the skiers ski down the mountain. Our host was welcoming and responsive, he answered any questions that came up. With an impending snowstorm the night before our departure, he arranged to make sure the driveway and entryway would be cleared for us, and it was. We accidently ledt some clothes in the dryer and we called him and he said he would ship them to us!

Excellent stays for our girls weekend. Plenty of beds for everyone that were very comfortable. Lots of common area space, big table so we could all eat together. Loved the natural lighting and view! Hot tub was great for relaxing at night. We would definitely return to this property again! I would also bring my family here as there is so much outdoor space for kids to run and play!

We will absolutely be back for ski season!

House was exactly as described - beds are incredibly comfortable - especially the king in the master bath. Lots of kitchen appliances, plates, cups, silverware- everything you would need. Location is peaceful with an easy semi circle driveway for multiple car parking, if needed. The enclosed deck is a great compliment to the outer deck. The hot tub looked beautiful, but we didn't get a chance to use it. Lars was very responsive and clear. The woodstove was the absolute topper - nice and relaxing while watching tv with friends!

Overall, we loved our stay in Otis. The house was perfect for two couples - also had a kids’ room that we didn’t use. The place is small but laid out nicely. The kitchen was well-equipped, which is a big plus for us. The view of the backyard field was lovely. The location was great for us because we have family in Otis, but others should know that it is not especially close to restaurants and shows. We drove to both Lenox and Great Barrington with no problem, though. We also took a walk around the Otis forest and saw tons of mushrooms! The AC system was a bit complex if you are used to central air, but I was glad to have it in the bedroom at night. Hot tub a real plus. I would recommend for a family or small group.

We stayed at the Meadow House over Labor Day weekend. Lars was super accommodating to us and made sure we were taken care of. Really quick responses from him and he’s even working with us to return something one of the friends I was with left behind. Definitely recommend this house if you’re looking to escape the city or go hiking near by.

My small group had an extremely relaxing and enjoyable stay at our host's place in Otis. The landscape, property and surrounding area were all beautiful and peaceful. The hot tub and very cozy furnishings on every floor made this the ultimate fall retreat. Our host Lar's was so knowledgeable and communication was a breeze. We will absolutely be back for ski season!

A lovely view and the location is amazing—close to many beautiful hikes and you can walk to Otis Ridge. Lars was a really responsive host (we ran out of propane on the grill and he replaced the tank for us; had to leave early for a family emergency and he was very accommodating). Hot tub was a nice treat, too!

The hot tub is highlighted for good reason - it's terrific. The house was fine, a little wear and tear here and there, but serviceable. The neighborhood is very quiet, peaceful.

We rented this VRBO for a short family getaway before our first grandchild arrival. Was looking for something big enough to house 6 adults comfortably and in a central location. Haven’t never been to the Berkshire before, this was a great find. Price was affordable and it literally 7-20 minutes from everything. We went to Jacob Pillow, the lake, great eateries, farmers markets. plenty to do locally.The house was clean, large and small enough to

Overall, we loved our stay in Otis. The house was perfect for two couples - also had a kids’ room that we didn’t use. The place is small but laid out nicely. The kitchen was well-equipped, which is a big plus for us. The view of the backyard field was lovely. The location was great for us because we have family in Otis, but others should know that it is not especially close to restaurants and shows. We drove to both Lenox and Great Barrington with no problem, though. We also took a walk around the Otis forest and saw tons of mushrooms! The AC system was a bit complex if you are used to central air, but I was glad to have it in the bedroom at night. Hot tub a real plus. I would recommend for a family or small group.

We are two families that travel together every year for a long weekend. This getaway did not disappoint. It was a beautiful home with amazing views! We enjoyed watching the 6 inches of snow falling from the hot tub! The house was big enough for all of us. Four adults and 3 teenagers. The teenagers had a great time playing video games and we all enjoyed the shuffleboard table! We could watch different movies on different floors! We made dinners and there was plenty of room for all of us around the table. We took a ride to nearby Stockbridge and the Lee Outlets. We didn't ski this weekend but the house is right next to Otis Ridge Ski area. A short walk through the back woods and we were on the side of the slopes watching the skiers ski down the mountain. Our host was welcoming and responsive, he answered any questions that came up. With an impending snowstorm the night before our departure, he arranged to make sure the driveway and entryway would be cleared for us, and it was. We accidently ledt some clothes in the dryer and we called him and he said he would ship them to us!

We stayed at the Meadow House over Labor Day weekend. Lars was super accommodating to us and made sure we were taken care of. Really quick responses from him and he’s even working with us to return something one of the friends I was with left behind. Definitely recommend this house if you’re looking to escape the city or go hiking near by.

House was exactly as described - beds are incredibly comfortable - especially the king in the master bath. Lots of kitchen appliances, plates, cups, silverware- everything you would need. Location is peaceful with an easy semi circle driveway for multiple car parking, if needed. The enclosed deck is a great compliment to the outer deck. The hot tub looked beautiful, but we didn't get a chance to use it. Lars was very responsive and clear. The woodstove was the absolute topper - nice and relaxing while watching tv with friends!

This house was just what we needed for a peaceful and relaxing long weekend. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were very comfortable and the hot tub was awesome! Couldn’t ask for a better place to prep for and recover from a half marathon! Lars is a great host.

Excellent stays for our girls weekend. Plenty of beds for everyone that were very comfortable. Lots of common area space, big table so we could all eat together. Loved the natural lighting and view! Hot tub was great for relaxing at night. We would definitely return to this property again! I would also bring my family here as there is so much outdoor space for kids to run and play!
