Girl's trip

We had a lovely stay! The space was perfect for our group of 4 moms looking for a peaceful getaway. The host was very responsive. Only note for those visiting, rideshares (Uber and otherwise) are few and far between. Schedule ahead! We'd definitely stay again :)

Beautiful clean, home minutes from SKI Butternut!

We enjoyed staying at the house with our friends/family. Easy check in, Shay was very attentive to any questions, and the check in directions were seamless. House was clean and fun for all. Also, about 10 minutes to Ski Butternut, 30 min from Catamount, and 15 to drive into town! Overall, 5 star stay!

Awesome Ski House - Great for Multiple Families

This is a great house for multiple families as there are three separate floors. Everything you could need was provided, the beds were very comfortable, and the entire house and everything in it was extremely clean. The close proximity to Butternut was also a major plus. Shay was a great host and the communication was excellent. Anytime I had a question he responded quickly. I would stay at this house again in a second. Looking forward to the next time!

An Architect and an Interior Designer from NY teamed together to create the perfect Escape of a Modern Ski Lake house with all new bathrooms and amenities to provide high-end hospitality & exceptional experience.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect blend of privacy, natural beauty, and unbeatable access to the best of the Berkshires. The home sits in a quiet, private Lake Garfield community, surrounded by trees and bathed in natural light, with beautiful lake views from nearly every room. It’s the kind of peaceful setting that immediately makes you feel relaxed.
The location is exceptional for anyone who loves the outdoors. It’s just a 5-minute walk to the Lake Garfield sandy public beach, and close to some of the region’s most scenic hiking trails. In the winter, skiing is incredibly convenient: Ski Butternut is only 5 minutes away, Otis Ridge is 13 minutes, and Catamount is a short 20 min drive.
We also chose this neighborhood for its proximity to the vibrant town of Great Barrington, just 15 minutes away, where guests can enjoy farm-to-table restaurants, cafés, local breweries, boutiques, and cultural attractions.
The Berkshires are stunning in every season, offering swimming, kayaking, fishing, fall foliage, skiing, tubing, and year-round recreation. This neighborhood gives guests easy access to all of it while still feeling peaceful, private, and connected to nature.
It truly offers the perfect balance of lake living, outdoor adventure, and New England charm—which is exactly why we chose it.

Guests consistently comment on the comfort and serenity of their stay.

Outdoors, the property offers unmatched convenience. You’re just a 5-minute walk to the white-sand public beach on Lake Garfield, close to beautiful hiking trails, and minutes from the best ski mountains: Ski Butternut (5 min), Otis Ridge (13 min), and Catamount (20 min). Whether it’s swimming, kayaking, fishing, leaf-peeping, skiing, or tubing, the location is perfect for year-round activities.

Inside, the home’s layout is spacious and thoughtfully designed by an Interior Designer and Architect, offering modern finishes, comfortable gathering spaces, and seamless indoor–outdoor living.
