INSIDE
650-square foot charming cottage directly on 129-acre Center Pond in Becket, MA. One main bedroom upstairs with queen bed, very small loft area upstairs (for sleeping only - probably best for children) with 2 mattresses, small bedroom downstairs with single bed.

No cable TV, but large TV monitor and blue ray DVD player. High-speed internet. NOTE: the homeowner's association along the road has very strict quiet policy after 10 PM so this cottage WILL NOT be a good choice if abiding by this policy will be a problem.

Outside has spacious upper deck and lower deck, plus dock. Eating table and sitting area on upper deck, with comfortable seating on lower deck. Dive into water from dock into 6-foot depth. Clean, clear lake great for swimming. Cottage has 3 kayaks and one 2-person canoe. Great fishing . Motorboats permitted. However, very quiet, peaceful lake. Cottage is east facing. Warm, sunny breakfasts on the deck.

SURROUNDING AREA
Becket is located in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts close to great hiking (including Appalachian Trail), antiquing , outlet shopping (Lee), theatre (Stockbridge, Pittsfield), dance (Jacobs Pillow), music (Tanglewood), museums (Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Clark Institute in Williamstown). Great biking on many of the rural roads in the area.

    This is my third time at Jim’s cottage and each visit has been extraordinary. He has literally thought of everything you might need to take full advantage of the beautiful Lakeside location. I plan to return as often as I can.

    We loved the little cottage; it is so well furnished with everything you need. My teenager loved his tiny bedroom and I loved how there were enough hooks and storage places for all your things. The landscaping is very nice and there is enough privacy from neighbors. It was great to have access to boats with life jackets, etc. We hope to return! Because I didn’t recognize the front view of the house from the photos, I’m including one here. So cute.

    We had the best time for a long weekend away at the cottage. Unbelievable view, great and well cared for property. We would absolutely recommend it!

    the cottage on the water was perfect for some quiet r&r. the host goes above and beyond - provided paper products, coffee and many other products that were not expected. loved kayaking the pristine pond - caught my first pickerel and some very hefty bass. Our stay could not have gone better. will definitely be returning

    This was our 4th time staying here, first with a kid, we enjoyed the grill, hammocks, kayaks, and of course the view from the two decks.

    This was our second stay and it did not disappoint! Beautiful, clean, comfortable home situated directly on the lake. Host was very kind and communicative. 10/10 would recommend.

    We had a lovely time at Jim's home, which sits right on this lake and is also near lots of great hiking. Small smallmouth bass and pickerel are easily caught from Jim's dock and even more easily when fishing from Jim's canoe. There may be bigger fish in there, but I can only attest to the plentifulness of the 12-inch smallmouths and pickerel. Jim communicates quickly and clearly, and we would love to come back.
