You'll love the short walk from 'The Palace' to our white sandy beach on Long Pond, one of Southeastern Massachusetts' pristine glacial lakes. This rustic summer cottage is tucked into a pine woodland and sits on a hill just above the large beach. The beach which is semiprivate, has a dock a floating raft and tons of sand - perfect for building sandcastles. The gradual entrance into the water is great for young children.

The Palace offers accommodations for up to six people. There aretwo bedrooms, one with a queen bed, and one with a queen bed and two twins (bunk bed style). The galley kitchen has plenty of cooking utensils and dishes. The screened porch is set up for dining alfresco while enjoying a great view of Long Pond.

Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, a week at the Palace offers an old-fashioned style family vacation.

You can enjoy quiet morning strolls along woodland paths and refreshing daily swims while remaining surprisingly close to many popular Massachusetts destinations. Long Pond has clean, clear water with a sandy bottom and is great for small craft boating. There is a public boat ramp that accommodates small boats. Kayaks and sailboats are perfect. For over 60 years, the pond residents have raced antique sail boats on Saturday and Sunday afternoons in July and August. Fishermen love Long Pond which the state stocks with trout and salmon each Spring and Fall.

Explore miles of sandy country roads and trails that run through conservation land, cranberry bogs and along the shores of three nearby ponds.

The cottage is next to Pinewoods Camp, a folk dance and music camp. From mid June through Labor Day, you can hear the music wafting through the woods until 11 PM. On selected Sunday nights in July and August guests are invited to participate in the evening folk dance program.

Four generations of our family have vacationed on this property for over seventy years. We have worked hard to preserve its natural, rustic character and the unique old-fashioned nature of the structures.

    Nice, mostly secluded (there is another cabin within 50 -100ft but it was unoccupied while we were staying), cabin in the woods. The semi-private beach is steps from the back deck and is well maintained and clean, even well out into the water. The small dock is very nice as well. The access road is rough towards the end, we had the truck so we did fine, but I wouldn’t suggest bringing any low vehicles it would be a bit of a challenge.(As described in the listing) You can definitely hear the music from the neighboring camp throughout the day and into the evening but it’s not intrusive, although definitely energetic at times.The galley style kitchen is tight but clean and functional as is the shower. We would stay here again.

    We had a wonderful stay. This classic cottage is comfortable and in a beautiful and peaceful location. Screened in porch and direct access to the water via the small beach/dock were definite highlights. Hosts were kind and responsive.

    This was an amazing stay. It was exactly as described; clean, comfortable and with gorgeous views. Susan and Trip were extremely communicative and made us feel right at home. It rained the whole time I was there but the wood stove and screened in porch made it a perfect getaway. I would definitely come again!

    Our family for 4 ventured deep into the Massachusetts wilderness to discover this 2 bedroom “Palace” cottage. It had all the basics that we needed and it’s own sandy beach on the lake, a short 2 min walk away. We had a little trouble finding the location at first but the owners went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The cottage was old and had a great nostalgic feel to it. The weather was great so the lack of heat in the cottage was not a factor. The location is great, quiet and private but it was hard to travel at night not knowing the area that well. Located adjacent to a singing/music camp, my son got a kick out of exploring the grounds in our notified “hiking trails” Overall Susan was fantastic and we would definitely go back, preferably in the summer and enjoy all that lake has to offer.
