Peace and quiet on the lake

OPEN FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL SEASONS! You will love the peaceful and private lake and have plenty of other great things to do while in the Berkshires. Very close to Tanglewood, Jacobs Pillow, Lee Outlets, Theater, concerts, skiing, restaurants and much more. Or just hang out on kayaks enjoy mother nature and this rustic style home. The kids swimming at the beach. Sherwood Shoppe has everything you need for a camping feel and ice cream! The fall foliage doesn't get much better than this! Or enjoy this winter wonderland and all the Berkshires have to offer in winter. You will even enjoy watching mother nature come back to life right in front of your eyes in the spring,

Great Location in The Forest
Very nice property! The interior was very clean and comfortable. However the exterior needs some attention, especially the steps and railings leading to the doorways. Also, there were screens torn down on the porch which allowed critter entry. Two things to consider for future guests : keyless entry and paper towels

Relaxing weekend at the lake
My husband and I had a very peaceful and relaxing long weekend at this lake house! It was very clean and has everything you need. We spent the majority of our time on the wonderful screened-in porch. The location was great and there was a little store/restaurant only a couple minutes walk up the street that was convenient and the food was really good! Overall, a great place to stay!

Peaceful Retreat
We loved our two night stay in the forest :) The house was super clean, well appointed, quiet and relaxing. We didn't have great weather so didn't get to take advantage of the perfect spot on the lake or any of the kayaks or boats, but the location was a great jumping off point for visiting the various Berkshires towns.

Everything we needed
The house was clean and cozy. The kitchen was well stocked, especially important as we like to cook at home. Justin was responsive when I contacted him with questions. Love that the house was dog friendly with a fenced in back yard. The house has been updated inside but the deck needs some TLC, which I am sure are in the plans. A perfect get away!

A relaxing Easter weekend with family.
Thank you, Justin, for sharing your beautiful home with my family. We had a very nice time and relaxed in the beautiful quiet surroundings. I was so excited when I saw some Norwex items as I am a consultant and also use Norwex in my home. We hope to visit again in the warmer months as it was a perfect memory for our family. Thanks again, The Short family

Birthday present
We rented the house to celebrate mom’s 70th birthday. We wanted a quiet, simple place where we could spend time together, visit, and spend time outdoors. That’s exactly what we got. We all fished and kayaked and enjoyed the peaceful scenery. Thank you.
