From Boston and points east via Mass Pike:

  • Take Mass Pike to exit #1 – West Stockbridge
  • Make a left turn off the exit ramp heading south on Route 41 (AKA Great Barrington Rd. on some GPS systems).
  • Follow Route 41 south for 3.2 miles to Pixley Hill Rd. on your left.
  • Keep an eye out for Glendale Rd. on your left because It comes just a few hundred feet before you see Pixley Hill Road.
  • Make left turn onto Pixley Hill Rd. which is a dirt road.
  • Follow Pixley Hill Rd. up to # 11, which is the 3rd house on the left with a long straight driveway that angles up to your left.

Important:  Note that many GPS and google maps don’t accurately show 11 Pixley Hill Road’s location. Once you are getting off the Pike and going south on Rt. 41, use your odometer to measure the 3.2 miles on 41 between The Mass Pike and Pixley Hill Rd.  If you’ve gone much more than 3.2 miles, you’ve gone too far.

From NY and points South:

Taking Route I 684 to Rt. 22:

  • From the west side of Manhattan, I take Henry Hudson > Saw Mill Parkway North > 684.
  • Take 684 North which eventually becomes Rt. 22 North in Brewster
  • Follow Rt. 22 to Rt. 23 (this time on 22 will be the bulk of your drive)
  • Make a right on Rt. 23 and go East on 23 (becomes Rt. 23 and Rt. 41 combined)
  • Follow Rt. 41 through downtown Great Barrington
  • Keep left and go under the train overpass/tunnel on your left (don’t go to the right to Rt. 7)
  • Follow Route 41 North for 6.2 miles to Pixley Hill Rd. on your right. – NOTE: Stay on Rt. 21 North for the full 6.2 miles before you make the right onto Pixley Hill Rd.  Use your odometer. GPS will often tell you to make the right earlier at the other end of Pixley Hill Rd. I don’t recommend this.
  • Make right turn onto Pixley Hill Rd. which is a dirt road.
  • Follow Pixley Hill Rd. up to # 11, which is the 3rd house on the left with a long straight driveway that angles up to your left.

Important:  Note that many GPS and google maps don’t accurately show 11 Pixley Hill Road’s location. Once you  go through Great Barrington and go through the train tunnel on Rt. 41 , use your odometer to measure the 6.2 miles on 41 between the train tunnel and Pixley Hill Rd.

  • Make right turn onto Pixley Hill Rd. which is a dirt road.

Important:  Note that many GPS and google maps don’t accurately show 11 Pixley Hill Road’s location.  Once you exit Great Barrington, Pixley Hill Rd. is 6.2 miles from the small tunnel, so use your odometer to measure the 6.2 miles.  If you’ve gone much more than 6.2 miles, you’ve gone too far.
