Roxbury & Washington are located in historic, rural Litchfield County, within a scenic 2-hour drive from NYC and is exceptional for its excellent restaurants, spas, antique shops, art galleries, boutiques, farms, historic homes, gardens, vineyards, distilleries, and orchards.

It is the current or former home to many artists, writers, actors and Wall Street executives – referred to as "more Vermont, than Vermont" and "the un-Hamptons".

We had a great stay at this property. The heated pool was a highlight, and the host was responsive and accommodating throughout our visit. The kitchen was spacious and well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals for a large group. The huge dining table was perfect for gathering everyone together, and the gas BBQ made feeding the whole family simple and convenient.We especially enjoyed the fire pit, which became part of our nightly routine for making s’mores and spending time together outdoors.Another thing we appreciated was the location. The house feels private and tucked away, offering a peaceful retreat, yet it’s only about 20 minutes from the supermarket and other essentials. It was the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience.Overall, this is an excellent property for families or larger groups looking for a comfortable, well-appointed place to relax and spend quality time together. We would happily stay here again.
