Built by Westinghouse and then part of a Vanderbilt Estate, and the first property in the world to be powered by AC electricity, The Playhouse is a renovated iconic Berkshires property that once served as a theater space for America's greatest innovators, with visitors from President McKinley, to Nikola Tesla and Lord Kelvin, and is now hung with fine art, and includes an in-house yoga studio, two kitchens, seven sleeping areas and five bathrooms; amenities include lakefront access (an 8 min walk), and the best Berkshire views. Come relax at this historic home under 25' cathedral ceilings, connect with friends and entertain inside (We have a Yamaha upright piano.) , or on the Victorian-style courtyard.

Summary: The house and the outside are lovely. The house is big and spacious with lots of beds and bathrooms. The kids congregated in the downstairs "playroom" and the adults in the main floor, even though the main floor did accommodate all! The facilities are beautiful and the views extraordinary. It is well located, near the High Lawn Farm and the Lake which we used throughout our stay.Overall, it was a super house for our family to be togther!
