Weekend disc golfing
A couple friends and I stayed for a long weekend to play local disc golf and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We loved how spacious, comfortable, and clean Christopher's place was and were thankful to each have our own bedroom. Will definitely be back!

Felt Like Home
One of the best places I’ve stayed! My father was raised in Barre and we often have to stay in Gardner when we visit. It was amazing to not have to drive 20+ minutes to get to my cousins farm. The house feels like home. The beds were all comfortable. It was nice to be able to spread out and have enough space for everyone to relax. Couldn’t have asked for a better situation or host! I will definitely be booking again.

We were visiting family in nearby Hubbardston and were quite pleased with having a spacious, clean place to come back to every evening. I'll definitely look this place up again the next time we are in the area!

Quaint House and Stay
We gave an overall 4 star - stay. We had a great trip and stay. Home was very clean. This is a duplex house so we did hear the neighbors coming and going - up and down their stairs. Check in process was a bit rough as our gps was not taking us to exact location. Be mindful of numbers on homes not in any kind of consecutive purpose. The house number was very small and could not be seen in the dark. 5 stars to the owner as he answered our late night call and assisted us with finding the home. We thank you for our stay and look forward to returning.

Barre getaway
We were quite comfortable staying in this beautiful rental for the night along with our pup. Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and cozy. Kitchen had everything you needed and we made our breakfast using supppies provided. Close proximity to a variety of fun activities.

Lovely Kitchen
The whole place was very nice and well-stocked with toiletries and other essentials. Being the cook of the family, my main impression was of the kitchen. Spacious, stocked with cookware, a powerful gas stove, and with a peninsular countertop between the kitchen area and living room so you can cook without being completely separated from your family.

Family retreat
This was a very nice apartment, quiet, clean and had everything we needed; plenty of towels and kitchen accessories. The problem was it seemed to be set up for winter, wool bedding and no air conditioning in the bed rooms.

The cleaning fees seem high, but the place is spotless. Not much for hotels in the area, so this is a decent spot.

Lovely neighborhood! Quiet and comfortable home.
This is an ideal place to stay in lovely Barre, MA. The owner communicated well and we had such a nice stay. We were in town for a family wedding and this home was situated in a quiet, safe neighborhood close to shopping and Dunkin Donuts :)

Thankful
My husband and I, our 15 month old and 2 dogs needed a place to stay on short notice while work was being done on our house. This place was exactly what we needed. And the property owner was incredibly helpful by allowing us to stay despite me booking it for the wrong week!

We had a wonderful time using this as our base for skiing at Wachusett. Everything we could have asked for was available, including the fully equipped kitchen and laundry, and our host was super responsive.
