    Stayed at the Birches recently and had a fantastic fall weekend with my fiance. Dan was extremely hospitable. We were greeted by Hazel (Dan's chocolate lab) who was as friendly a dog you could find. We enjoyed a bottle of wine at sunset while sitting on Adirondack chairs over looking the private wooded grounds. Upon returning from Dinner each night, we saw numerous deer wondering around!. Dan made great breakfasts each morning. Other than the breakfast being a bit early for me, I would not change a thing. What a great weekend, would definitely go back to The Birches!

    A very charming, beautiful place

    My wife and I wanted a peaceful weekend away from NYC, and we got it. This B&B is quite pleasant, with beautiful grounds. The owner, Dan, is a very nice guy, too -- he'll make sure you have what you need. We hope to come back.

    My girlfriend and I spent 3 nights at The Birches and just fell in love with this place. We arrived and were greeted by two sweet, friendly dogs. The grounds are beautiful and it's so much more than just a place to stay. You can stroll around the grounds, enjoy the scenery, lounge by the beautiful pond, hike in the area. The house is homey and welcoming and much more of a home than an impersonal resort. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Dan cooks a spectacular breakfast each morning, he's helpful and accomodating. The Birches is a real find. We can't wait to go back!

    The ambiance is simply exceptional. Beauty surrounds you on all sides inspiring harmony and peace and true and deep relaxation. Beautiful trees abound with abundant flowers and it is not uncommon to see lovely deer grazing in the fields. This is simply a beautiful place and experience and I recommend it highly. You will want to return to its beauty and peace once every season!

    We rented out the entire house for our brother's graduation from Williams College. The innkeeper, Dan, went above and beyond to make our weekend memorable. He even hosted a graduation party at his property for our brother, free of charge. The gardens and setting are idyllic. Dan is truly a chef! You will enjoy your visit.
