We are a family that has traveled all over the world and US and never expected to look back on our time in the Berkshires at the Federal House Inn as our favorite weekend in years. 19 of us took over the inn for two nights of memorable candle lit breakfasts, hikes in the area, wine and savories in the...

19 of us gathered to celebrate my mother's 75th birthday. It was an incredible weekend. The Inn is just beautiful- comfortable, welcoming with wonderful breakfasts and lovely hosts. We could not have found a more perfect place for 4 families, children and one grandmother to gather. Kolleen and Brian are the perfect hosts!

We just celebrated our mother's 75th birthday at The Federal House Inn and had a phenomenal time. Every detail was perfect, from the wine receptions each afternoon, to the fireplaces in every room, to the delicious breakfasts and to the incredibly accommodating and gracious hosts. We sat in Adirondack chairs overlooking an expansive lawn on which our children played tag... More

We stayed three nights while touring Bard College at Simon's Rock for our daughter. It was just right. Relaxed, engaging hosts, superb breakfasts. We chose the top floor suite and it was just as expected. Good showers, clean crisp bedding and nice for a bit more family privacy. The home is kept very clean but retains that lived-in, relaxed feel... More

We just returned from a two night stay at the Federal House Inn in Lee, Mass. All was perfect: the accommodation, the food, the innkeepers and the surroundings. The Federal House Inn, built in 1824, has nine rooms, all with private bath. We stayed in the Beartown Mountain Room, and enjoyed a most comfortable bed with crisp bedding, an electric... More

From the time of our arrival at the beautiful, historical Federal House Inn, in South Lee, Mass., we were greeted as welcome guests whose satisfaction was a priority for the innkeepers. The elegant exterior was echoed in interior rooms with high ceilings and period furniture. The overall impression was elegant but comfortable ... you won't hesitate to curl up on... More

The Berkshires is a rustic, secluded area mostly offering expensive and shabby accommodations. It was difficult to find sound lodgings with modern amenities which was reasonably priced... relative to the region. My visit was due to a demanding formal obligation so I also wanted to find a soothing atmosphere with a high level of service. Thank goodness, the Federal House... More

Our stay at the Federal House Inn was very enjoyable. The accommodations were excellent. The Innkeeper was very helpful in giving suggestions and necessary directions. Take time to enjoy a drink on the front lawn.

As soon as I set foot inside the Federal House Inn I felt at home, except a much more luxurious and comfortable version of my home! Brian and Kolleen were gracious hosts and their attention to detail was great. The entire house was extremely well appointed and meticulously maintained. Our room was clean and cozy, the bed was super comfortable.... More

Our stay at the Federal House Inn was remarkable. It is a beautiful, historical home, very comfortable (great beds) and inviting. We were treated like VIPs and at the same time, like old friends. The innkeepers were extremely accomodating, informative and friendly. It exceeded all of our expectations. We will definitely be return customers!
