Enjoy everything the Berkshires has to offer from this beautiful, secluded, nicely renovated waterfront house set on two acres of forested land. Perfect for families or couples.

Swim, fish, or boat from the backyard. (Canoe, Kayak and lifejackets provided.) Explore the stream that runs through the property. Picnic down by the water, or lounge on the deck.

    Our rental experience was exceptional. First of all I had requested same day acceptance due to an emergency work request, which in most cases is impossible to secure due to logistical issues. Larry stepped up and made it happen without issue. The house was perfect for myself and my co-workers. We were perfectly comfortable and able to rest peacefully. I would recommend this rental to anyone seeking a quiet serene stay in the Berkshires, or someone like myself just looking for a peaceful place to rest after work. 10/10!

    We really enjoyed our trip with our dog Sammy. The house was very nice and cozy. Larry sent an email ahead of time, with information that pretty much answered all my questions before we even arrived. That was very much appreciated. We would to like to go back during summertime and try out the lake.

    The home was beautiful, simple and very clean! The back yard was gorgeous, well maintained and perfect for the pups to run around. If it had been a bit warmer, we would have loved to canoe or kayak around the lake. The leaves were amazing!We also enjoyed some great hikes on the nearby trails each day. Next time we will bring the grandkids!

    We had a wonderful weekend away at this vacation property! It was the perfect place to relax and reconnect with the family. The area was very quiet and peaceful. We hiked each day and especially enjoyed kayaking and fishing on the lake. The house was spotless, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the host responded quickly to our questions. We only wish our stay was longer.

    We had a lovely 2 days relaxing and reconnecting at this wonderful property! The kids were happy to spend all day kayaking and paddle boarding and exploring the stream. We were sad to leave and look forward to returning. The house was clean and very guest friendly. Thank you!

    We had a great time at this lakefront house. Wonderful to be able to swim, kayak and paddleboard right from the back yard. House is well equipped and it was helpful to be supplied with beach towels and other equipment.

    A bit of a challenge to locate, very remote, dirt and winding roads, pitch black at night so not conducive to being away from property, basic but functional decor, very clean and comfortable sleeping quarters, best to bring all your own major food items; definitely a location for those younger and physically able. Truly beautiful and quiet.

    Clearly the owner of this property takes pride in his property. The place was immaculate, the small lake was beautiful, with plenty of fun to be had kayaking and fishing. We have been to the Berkshires many times, but not to Becket - which is as peaceful as could be but still close to all the area has to offer. This property has everything you could want for a peaceful weekend away - everything as advertised and more. Thank you!!

    Our family of 2 kids and 2 adults spent a wonderful fall weekend at this clean, well furnished, spacious home on the lake. The kids and grown ups enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding on the perfectly sized lake right off the backyard. We hiked at the local quarry and at night roasted marshmallows in the backyard fire pit under a starry sky. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for peace, quiet and nature with waaaaay better accommodations than a tent!

    This place! Quiet little lake in the middle of nowhere and it was great!! Fully equipped with everything you need to get away. We fully enjoyed taking multiple trips out on the lake with the kayaks and Canoe, Fishing off the private dock and roasting s’mores over the well built fire pit right by the water with comfortable chairs to sit and relax. We also enjoyed sitting on the deck looking over the water and watching for passing wild life! A brook running along side of the property makes for a mini adventure looking for frogs and beavers living close by. My Family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in Becket!

    The house and neighborhood was a perfect peaceful summer retreat from city life. It was a lovely week by the lake with my wife, son, and dog. The house was charming and clean. The natural environment on and surrounding the property is perfect. I loved falling asleep listening to the sounds of the brook. Enjoyed both swimming and fishing in the lake. The check in and check out process was easy. Would definitely book again.
