The Porches Inn was inspired by MASS MoCA (Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art) which is an array of galleries and performance space located in a 19th Century mill, in North Adams.

North Adams is a small and charming city with a strong modern art identity, boasting a host of art and crafts galleries and shops, boutiques and restaurants.  The Inn itself is sited in a row of formerly delapidated mill workers cottages that have been superbly renovated with long verandas, bold decor and an aesthetic that is contemporary and edgy, but also has a vintage vibe to pay homage to the mill workers that used to live there.  Being in such an arty city, and located just across the road from MASS MoCA, it is not surprising that Porches has its own art installations and an artist-in-residence. In addition to the art, inn amenities include an outdoor swimming pool, fitness room, sauna, hot tub, native woodland garden, woodland gazebo and bonfire pit.  A complimentary continental breakfast is served every morning, either in the breakfast room or delivered to guestrooms.
