We are located in the foothills of Mt Tom with loads of beautiful hiking trails. We'd be happy to share some of our favorite hiking spots! Rent a kayak on the Connecticut River in Hadley, sample some authentic Puerto Rican cuisine in Holyoke, explore historic Northampton with its lively restaurant scene and grab some ice cream at the legendary Herrell’s!

Our household is fully vaccinated and are relieved to be able to welcome guests again. As is our usual practice, we ask that interested guests let us know what brings them to the area. Guests will have access to their bedroom and a shared full bathroom. We welcome you to enjoy our backyard when the weather's warm enough! We enjoy meeting and talking with people, but we also lead bustling lives in the community. We would be happy to respect our guests' need for privacy. The house is located in the historic Highlands area of Holyoke, filled with old Victorians and Colonials, and old trees. Real sense of history, with large mansions further down the Route 5. Our street is a dead-end street with less traffic, leading to Mount Tom. Free parking is available on the street in front of the house. We have a lovely cat, called Pycathoras. She's generally friendly, but will mostly stay out of your way!
