Restful and unique

We enjoyed a relaxing few days in the Bamboo Cabin. The bed was comfy and the linen sheets were a treat. John (the host) was kind and amenable.

Lovely spot

I love staying here. John and Jim have created a quiet, artsy spot in a beautiful meadow which feels far away from town but it isn’t. The apartment has everything you need and is so well taken care of- full of vintage vibes. You can see the care they put in their property as well and I love taking walks and sitting in the garden in the evenings. Can’t wait to return.

Quiet Sanctuary

A special time to step away from the busyness of life for a few days and enjoy the abundance of nature walks and hiking trails in the area and plenty of restaurants and food shopping to choose from.

Very Enjoyable Stay

Great area and great location -- particularly enjoyed watching the chipmunks from the patio. Great wifi, quiet despite being adjacent to other unit (thick walls!), halfway between Northampton and Easthampton, both worth checking out

Great Place for a Getaway

My stay was amazing! The apartment is clean, quiet and comfortable, and John provided some great restaurant ideas. The chairs are super comfortable, and the soaking tub is great for relaxing. I can't wait to come back in the summer, because the outfoor seating areas look like they'll be amazing when the weather is nicer.

Lovely patio with nature views

While the listing highlights the "wet room" bath, the highlight for me was the beautiful view from the patio. The owners are creating a wonderful oasis off the back of their house. It was a treat to sit there in the morning and evening, watching the birds, including turkeys and admiring their attractive landscaping.

Tranquility

While there is easy access from the main routes, the world seems left behind as you turn into the driveway. Gardens, hardscapes, singing birds, dark skies for seeing the stars, and even an occasional bunny add to a sense of calm. The hospitality of our hosts, the room design, and the decor all contributed to a peaceful experience, while still being close to shops, restaurants and galleries. Thank you. Marc and Gail

Great Getaway

Not luxurious, but a clean, comfortable, quiet cottage on two mostly-mowed grassy acres. Great linens and a very comfortable queen bed. The owners, Jim and John, are friendly and helpful but never intrusive. Their dog Toffee was a perfect companion to our mini-goldendoodle Ollie, and they enjoyed daily romps around the property. Easy drive to downtown N’hampton. Would definitely stay with these folks again, but would request the bigger unit next time. Perfect spot for a western Mass base or just a relaxed, laid back vacation.

Thanksgiving at Bamboo

Very nice small property. Thoughtful owner met us upon arrival with a flashlight to guide our way in . Small Kitchen was fully adequate for me to cook my take-to for the Thanksgiving Dinner at family. Spa bathroom, beautiful garden, quiet country setting make this a unique and charming stay. 2 special notes; uneven surface steps outside to consider for anyone with special needs of balance or gait, and copper soaking tub restricted to water only, no salts, botanical oils etc. permitted to enrich your soak. A small accommodation to an otherwise lovely stay.

About the host

Hosted by John Sielski

Host profile image
We owned and operated a popular natural foods restaurant for over 20 years (1991-2012) on the Smith College campus. Green Street Café has been featured in many national and international publications (Gourmet, Bon Appetit, Yankee, New York Times, Boston Globe...). We now farm Greens Treat (the Cafe's former gardens) and provide organic fruit, vegetables, herbs and flowers for 20 garden share members. We have 2 friendly dogs.

Why they chose this property

The house and gardens sit on a south facing slope. Sunny and warm all year round with spectacular soil for our gardens. And the view - calming.

What makes this property unique

Secluded, private and quiet. 6 minutes to downtown Northampton and 5 minutes to Easthampton center.
