    Sweet cabin in a great spot. Despite houses nearby, the property is screened off by plantings and felt very private. Direct access to the lake was a treat. The cabin is airy, bright, and clean. The whole area was quiet, with sounds from a camp across the lake adding to the vibe. Despite a few 90 degree days, it was surprisingly cool inside with 4 ceiling fans and closed windows (per host advice).

    the property is beautiful and clean, the space is comfortable and cozy, and the atmosphere is to die for! right on the water we were able to bird watch and light a fire in the evening. we had absolutely amazing time the only negative is we hadn’t stayed longer the host made everything easy and included the perfect guide to the house.

    This is the perfect waterfront cottage, comfortable, with everything you need. Easy launching of paddle boards and kayaks. Nestled close to excellent hiking trails. In late August, the lake is quiet and serene. One of my favorite places to be. Sunrise float/paddling is one of the highlights for me.

    If this cottage was any closer to the lake It'd be a boat. Panoramic views from inside facing the lake and mountain. Cottage very clean with brand new appliances. Everything you'd need to feel at home. Owner is very responsive.

    This place provided the perfect 4 day getaway for our anniversary. The house is clean and comfortable. The lake views are beautiful just like the pictures show. The host, Cathy is warm and inviting with excellent communication skills. This was our first time staying in the Berkshires and we picked the perfect place to stay! We'd love to make this a yearly event.

    The cottage was clean, up to date, fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. There were 2 docks in which we launched our Kayaks and fished. The deck was such a joy to sit on. As well as the glass enclosed 4 seasons room. Cathy our host was so helpful from start to finish. Shopping, restaurants and hikes wete only minutes away. I would gladly return!!!
