Holiday Inn Club Vacations Oak n Spruce Resort in the Berkshires an IHG Hotel

Great location in the Berkshires for a getaway. This place looks pretty impressive overall. There are a lot of buildings and its slightly tucked away. We booked a 2 bedroom 1 king 1 queen villa. It was definitely spacious for the 2 of us and a baby. It has a full kitchen, dining table, 2 full bathrooms, living room, 2 bedrooms, and a nice semi private balcony/patio. We stayed in building 19, first floor, room 310 and there was a brook right behind the building so the view was nice back there on the patio. We requested to be put there because I read reviews that mentioned the brook and it was greatly appreciated so I hope this review comes in handy for others looking for something similar as well. I saw some balconies/patios that faced right to the pool and I wouldn't have liked that at all. It was so open and not private. The room is definitely painted/decorated very basic and could maybe use a little "sprucing" (get it 😆) up. But overall it wasn't terrible and the room was pretty clean. The beds were comfortable and we slept pretty well. We had a Jacuzzi tub in the bathroom, though I was expecting it to be in the bedroom like the pictures, so that was kind of a let down. It looked much nicer in the pictures. It was kind of small too. It was still a nice experience overall. The indoor pools were bigger than expected, but they do need to spruce up that area as well. Felt like we were in a school pool area. Kind of dark, drab, and outdated. They have vending machines and a little restaurant that has kind of a Chuckie Cheese type menu. A small movie theater that shows movies throughout the day was a nice touch, though we didn't use it. Plenty of scheduled daily activities too. The outdoor pool that I saw looked nice and so did the mini golf area. They had a playground, basketball court, and volleyball too. Beware of the timeshare pitch though!

We had a two bedroom in the presidential suite building for girl's 17th birthday weekend. The room was spacious and comfortable, perfect for our group. (fits up to 6) The kitchen includes all you need if you want to cook something. The amenities included activities throughout the day, we had teenagers, so they enjoyed the ceramic painting activity. There is PG rated movies scheduled throughout the day in a cute little theater, we had a lot of fun listening, dancing to music in the Bear Tree Bar area Friday night, the staff were AWESOME, everyone is so nice and accommodating for your every need. Really great people! The pool and hot tubs were relaxing and large, very well kept. They also have a fitness center, games, and large arcade for younger kids to enjoy. They have pool tables, and other tabletop type games for all ages. There is a small cafe which has some basics for lunch/dinner, burgers, flatbread pizza, salads, snacks and some other options, The area restaurants are very good so it's worth a short drive into Lee or Stockbridge (Red Lion Inn). Cafe Triskele in Lee for dinner was a special treat, authentic French bistro type food. The Starving Artist for breakfast or lunch was awesome too, many options, delicious food. We ordered pizza Friday night (Vivaldi's) they delivered directly to our room all the way up to the 3rd floor! It was very good and convenient for our arrival night.

The location was very convenient. The grounds and common facilities were very nice. The cafe in the activities room was a great find, reasonably priced and the staff was very attentive. We were able to get light dinner there that includes salad and pizza.

Clean, spacious, kitchen needs anticipated,

Didn't eat breakfast
