Stunning Lakefront Berkshire Rental, Lake Garfield: private dock, boats, more
Monterey, Massachusetts, United States
Get away from it all at our beautiful Berkshire lakefront wooded retreat. Swim, canoe, kayak, paddleboard, sunbathe, hike, bike, explore during the day. In the evening perhaps take a short drive to Tanglewood, Jacobs Pillow, Shakespeare & Co, or Mahaiwe Performing Arts, or to the movies in Great Barrington. Have dinner at the Red Lion Inn, or one of the fabulous restaurants nearby, or have it at home as you watch the sunset over the lake. brbr This private, modernized (major renovation completed 2018-19), 5 bedroom* cottage consists of two floors. The upper floor has a fully equipped kitchen , a large great room with a dining and living area, featuring a beamed cathedral ceiling, skylights, a dramatic fireplace, and an entertainment area with a wide screen TV. The dining room table seats eight and overlooks the lake. A transitional kitchen "island" seats an additional four. A screened porch overlooking the lake extends off of the dining area. An open porch overlooking the lake extends off the living room area. The master bedroom, with a king bed, and one full custom bath are on this floor. Downstairs, three bedrooms (two with queen beds one with one twin bed) have lake views. The fourth bedroom has two twin beds. A full bathroom, a second refrigerator, and a utility room with a washer and dryer are on this floor.

A four burner Napoleon gas grill overlooks the patio, with easy access to the kitchen.brbr A flight of half-steps (constructed for a gentleman who had just had a knee replacement) leads to the dock and the lake. Two canoes, two kayaks, and two stand up paddleboards come with this rental. There are also various floats for swimming. Lake Garfield is managed for weed control (the water is lowered each winter to kill off the weeds) so the water is one of the the clearest in Massachusetts. brbr A magical lakeside retreat with all the comforts of home and easily accessible to the world-renowned art, culture, dining, and entertainment of the Berkshire hills. Look forward to a memorable vacation.brbrbrbrbrKeywords: Berkshires, Western Massachusetts, Lakefront, Waterfront, Lake, Lake Garfield, Tanglewood, Jacobs Pillow, Monterey, Great Barrington, Lenox, Stockbridge, summer rental, vacation home, retreat, swimming, boating, tennis, rustic, wooded, Cottage, House, chalet
