About this property

Quiet Comfortable Cabin 5 Min. Walk to Swimming and Boating

Remember the simple pleasures of a country, lakeside vacation where you can spend the day swimming or boating, exploring the countryside, or just read the afternoon away on the screened-in porch? Get back to those simple pleasures in our cabin, located in a beautiful, quiet country setting in the heart of the Berkshire Mountains. The cabin is just a five minute walk to a lake where you can swim, fish (catch and release-permit required), kayak or canoe (boats, paddles and life jackets provided). Or spend the day exploring the many surrounding towns with antiques, restaurants and shopping galore; take a drive down a country road looking for roadside farm stands; go for a long walk in the woods; or explore the nearby rock quarry (the app AllTrails is a must have for this!). At night, have dinner at an outdoor restaurant, grill on the deck, relax with a glass of wine on the porch, roast marshmallows, do a puzzle, or enjoy your favorite streaming on our Roku TV with Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and more. The house has one large main room with living and kitchen areas, and two small bedrooms.
The larger room has a queen bed with a comfy mattress and luxurious linens. The smaller bedroom has a full-size bed and narrow twin upper bunk (for children only). There is a cozy screened-in front porch with lounge furniture and fan, and a back deck with gas grill and seating for four. Between the natural setting and nearby cultural and outdoor attractions, you're sure to find plenty to do here to relax and have fun at a safe distance from others.

The cabin is quiet, tidy, and comfortable. It is within driving distance of several hiking trails and was a great place to spend a long weekend. The host was friendly and communicative, and made sure that we had everything we needed for a nice stay.

ry nice place

This place was just what me and my two besties needed! It was very quiet and peaceful, and the screened in porch was just lovely. It might have felt crowded with more than three people, though. Everything worked well and the place is well-equipped.

Perfect weekend getaway

Never having been to western MA and the Berkshires, I feel this cabin couldn’t have been more perfect as the place to stay. Out in the thick woods, with a beautiful lake nearby, and mountains to hike with brooks and waterfalls - it doesn’t get much better than that. Djuna was very accommodating and communicative, and we enjoyed the cabin with all the features and amenities promised. We canoed on the lake and ended our days by a perfect roaring fire. I do hope to visit here again soon, I see no reason to stay anywhere else!

Lovely weekend stay

A friend and I stayed for the weekend to attend a Capullo retreat day. This location was 30 minutes from the facility and the perfect spot to spend a lovely weekend. It is minutes to the lake and a very private location. There’s a little stream running through the backyard With a lovely deck out back and a perfect screened in porch in the front. There is everything you need at the location, linens, all the kitchen equipment you need to cook, and the house is newly renovated and very well kept. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone that is looking for a house to spend time in a beautiful location in the woods. On our way out on Sunday we stopped and took a wonderful hike near a waterfall. It was absolutely beautiful. I do also want to put a kind word in for the owner of this property. They adjusted our schedule when we had made a mistake in booking and was so easy-going and lovely to work with. So, I definitely give this host five stars!

It will be exactly what you're loooking for!

We rented the cottage for a month! It feels exactly like you want a "camp" cottage to feel. lots of wood, cozy, VERY clean! Modern amenities too, like a very quiet "mini split" heat/ac system. VERY quiet dirt road. Short walk down to the lake. Super private. Unbelievably great water pressure in the shower too LOL! Close drive to some local restaurants and only 15 minutes to a Big Y grocery store. You will love it!

The cabin was well stocked and a welcome bottle of wine had been left. The bed in the main bedroom was extremely comfortable. However my friend said that the bed in the second bedroom was very hard and uncomfortable. It may be more appropriate for a family with kids.

This was a delight! The charming, rustic exterior belies the clean, modern interior. This tiny house had all the essentials and more. The decor was comfortable and smart looking. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped with all the necessities. Plates and flatware were all of one matching set rather than a mix-and-match of whatever was acquired from local yard sales. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of hot water. The surrounding neighborhood was wooded and peaceful. We hope to return for a long weekend sometime. This was a great way to end two weeks on the road!

About the host

Hosted by Djuna Perkins

Host profile image
I am a lawyer living near Boston with my husband and three children, but I grew up in Woodstock, New York and attended college in western Massachusetts.

Why they chose this property

Living and working in the city, I missed the country and thought the best way to teach my kids to care for the earth was to make sure they had a place where they could actually see and appreciate the natural world, and where we could all get away from the madness of the electronic world.

What makes this property unique

This cabin is an incredibly restful place. From the breeze on the screened porch to the unbelievable stars and the air at night, to the simplicity of its furnishings, it is just the place to get away from it all and remember who you are.
