Beautiful Getaway - Right on the Lake-Close to Skiing
Beautiful 2 bedroom (plus attic loft) home brings contemporary living to this hidden gem just 2 hours from NYC. We gutted the house completely incorporating modern amenities like a stainless steel kitchen with granite countertops, hardwood bamboo flooring and a large deck to enjoy the view of the pond just steps away. Relax in the living room watching the fire or the flat screen TV or just looking out the picture window to see the fish jumping in the pond right outside . Shmooze in the kitchen or at the dining room table just steps from the sliding doors taking you out on the deck to dine al fresco. Walk down the dock just steps from the house to swim in the refreshing pond or use our kayaks or pedal boat for a leisurely paddle. Our home is a great place for all seasons; watch the leaves change in fall, the flowers bloom in spring, close to skiiing in winter and lots of water fun in the summer. Not to mention the close proximity to the Berkshires and all it has to offer. 2 hours from NYC makes this an easy drive just to get away after a hard week at work. The house is located directly on Robinson Pond; we have a tandem kayak, and a single kayak available for your use. The house is 30 miles from Tanglewood, close to Jacob's Pillow, a short drive to Bash Bish Falls. This location is ideally situated close to NY as well as to the Berkshires plus hiking, skiing and swimming. Close to Catamount and Butternut ski areas..

This was a first time using VRBO. The place exceeded our expectations. Beautiful quiet area. Within a 40 minute drive is Hudson, a cute little town. We found a fun place for lunch called Warren 225. 40 minute drive to the Norman Rockwell Museum, and an hour and 40 from the Mark Twain house and museum. We plan to return.
This is the perfect getaway with a wonderful position on the lake, very comfortable interior and excellent outside space and seating. We had a great time and in every respect it exceeded our expectations.
This was a quick weekend getaway for us and the property checked all the boxes we needed - especially the location being right in the lake. Plenty of room for the three of us and had the amenities we needed including the kayaks.
We had a perfect lake experience:
Swimming, fishing, sunrise and sunset from the dock, peace and quiet. It was exactly what we wanted from our lake vacation!
My friend and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway. The house was perfect! It was clean, comfortable and on a beautiful location overlooking the lake. Would definitely come back!
We loved this home! It was a perfect stay right on the water. Close enough to cute little towns and the host was excellent with her correspondence. I highly recommend this home for anyone looking in this area to have a relaxing time with friends and family.
We had a lovely stay in Copake. The house was peaceful and had everything we needed. The kids had a great time on the water with the boats and swimming.

Beautiful
I stayed there and thought the place was gorgeous. Having the lake out back is great. The place was spacious could fit a family easily. I was very pleased with my stay and would definitely recommend it to others.
I was looking for a getaway with my 18 year old son and when we walked in and he saw the house and then the kayaks he said "I love it, it's perfect" and went right down to the water and got in the kayak. We had a great time relaxing in the comfortable beds and enjoyed the two man kayak as he paddled me around to catch some pretty big bass. Perfect place, will definitely come back.
